Intelligent completions could improve many of the world’s oil and gas wells, but not all are suited to the technology. There is another option.
This paper presents the characterization and comparison of a metakaolin-based geopolymer as a candidate treatment for remedial operations in oil and gas wells versus conventional state-of-the-art materials.
