A novel hydrophobically associating water-soluble polymer used as constant rheology agent for cement slurry.

ABSTRACT: During the process of well cementing in deep water, the cement slurry experiences a wide range of temperature variation from low temperature at seabed to high temperature in downhole. The elevated temperature affects the rheology of cement slurry. The change of rheology of cement slurry could influence the safety of cementing operation. The aim of this paper is to develop a new kind of hydrophobically associating water-soluble polymer (NHAWP) as an additive to prepare a constant rheology oil well cement slurry, which can be used at temperature range from 4°C to 90°C. The acrylamide, 2-acrylamide-2-methylpropionic acid and stearyl methylacrylate were applied to synthesize the NHAWP by the inverse microemulsion polymerization. Test results indicate that the critical association temperature o
