Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed herein are cement compositions and methods of using set-delayed cement compositions in subterranean formations. In one embodiment, a method of cementing in a subterranean formation is described. The method may comprise providing a set-delayed cement composition comprising water, pumice, hydrated lime, and a set retarder; activating the set-delayed cement composition with a liquid additive to produce an activated cement composition, wherein the liquid additive comprises a monovalent salt, a polyphosphate, a dispersant, and water; and allowing the activated cement composition to set.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An activated cement composition comprising: water; pumice; hydrated lime; a set retarder; a monovalent salt; and a polyphosphate. 2 . The composition of claim 1 further comprising a dispersant. 3 . The composition of claim 1 wherein the polyphosphate comprises sodium hexametaphosphate. 4 . The composition of claim 1 wherein the monovalent salt comprises sodium sulfate. 5 . The composition of claim 1 wherein the polyphosphate comprises sodium hexametaphosphate, the monovalent salt comprises sodium sulfate, and wherein the activated cement composition further comprises a polycarboxylated ether dispersant.
