The composition of hydraulic cement, and methods of cementing in an atmosphere of carbon dioxide, and intensification of recovery from a hydrocarbon of an underground formation

摘要

The invention provides a carbon dioxide-resistant hydraulic cement composition. The inventive composition comprises a Portland cement, Class C fly ash and water. The Class C fly ash is present in the composition in an amount in the range of from about 5% to less than about 30% by weight based on the total weight of the cementitious components in the composition. In another aspect, the invention provides a method of cementing in a carbon dioxide environment. In yet another aspect, the invention provides a method of enhancing the recovery of a hydrocarbon fluid from a subterranean formation.
