Carbon Readiness Strategies for the US EPA’s new greenhouse gas emissions (GhG) standards
Broadcast Date: November 19, 2009
Do you have a carbon readiness strategy? It’s no longer optional; the US EPA is regulating greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon emission programs have grown rapidly in recent years. Under these programs, some companies that emit greenhouse gases (GhG) have already had to manage their carbon emissions so as to know how many emissions credits to buy or sell. However, a new regulation from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will start regulating a larger population of facilities in the United States beginning in January 2010. While the EPA’s new mandatory GhG reporting rule will only require GhG reporting for affected facilities, successful implementation of this new rule will help companies better manage GhG issues going forward.

Innovative Cement Spacer System for Effective Zonal Isolation in Lost Circulation Zones
Date: 21 November, 2011
Cementing is a critical operation for the construction of onshore and offshore wells. This study describes the origins, laboratory testing, case histories, and final conclusions of an innovative spacer system for effective zonal isolation in lost circulation zones, highly permeable zones, and shallow water flow potential zones. The Ultra Spacer® technology, with a proprietary blend of functionalized polymers and bridging agents, can be used as cement spacer to effectively remove drilling mud and form a non-damaging membrane, reducing fluid/filtrate invasion and increasing effective zonal isolation in depleted production zones, lost circulation zones, washout zones and zones with narrow ECD margins. With over a thousand case histories, the Ultra Spacer® technology has proven itself a safe and effective cement spacer system for the most complicated cementing jobs faced by the oil and gas industry.
