Active set-cement technology for long-term zonal isolation

FUTUR active set-cement technology is a new and unique sealant that improves long-term zonal isolation and protects against hydrocarbon and sustained casing pressure leaks at the wellhead. Pumped and placed as a lead or tail system during any primary cement job, FUTUR active set-cement technology self-repairs cement sheaths throughout the life of the well without intervention.

The system has properties comparable to conventional cement systems and can be pumped with standard cementing equipment. No additional equipment or personnel are required. FUTUR active set cement can be used in wells producing oil, condensate, gas, or a mixture of hydrocarbon fluid. Well-monitoring costs are reduced and remedial cementing costs are eliminated.
