  • Method of forming and using high density particulate slurries for well completion
    Patent number: 5095987
    Abstract: A method of preparing high density particulate slurries is provided whereby slurries containing in excess of 23 pounds of particulate per gallon of fluid can be introduced into a subterranean formation. In accordance with the method, a viscosified pad fluid is introduced into a wellbore to create a filter cake in a desired zone within a subterranean formation. The high density slurry then is introduced into the formation to substantially fill any annular space present without significant settling. This permits the coating of the entire exterior surface of highly deviated casing exposed within a wellbore.
