Cementing Operation

The main purpose of cementing is to isolate formations behind the casing. The cement also will support and protect the casing, providing wellbore integrity. Evaluating zonal isolation and confirming the success of a cementing operation is critical. The evaluation process begins at the wellsite as cement slurry is pumped and the well is constructed.
