Abstract: The invention discloses a method for surface enhancement of a pipe. The method includes the steps of: introducing the pipe in a wellbore; introducing cement slurry in the pipe from surface; introducing an expander cone in the pipe on top of the cement slurry, the expander cone having a largest outer diameter which is larger than the initial inner diameter of the pipe; pumping the expander cone towards the downhole end of the pipe, thereby moving the cement slurry to the downhole end and out of the downhole end and into an annulus enclosing the pipe, while and at the same time expanding the inner diameter of the pipe.

Abstract: The invention discloses a method and system for surface enhancement of a pipe. The method includes the steps of: introducing the pipe in a wellbore; and applying a ribbed pattern to the inner surface of the pipe. An expander cone, having a largest outer diameter which is larger than the initial inner diameter of the pipe and having an outer surface provided with a correspondingly ribbed pattern, is moved through the pipe to apply the pattern.

Abstract: A method to provide a fractured subterranean formation is provided, the method including the steps of: providing a wellbore from a surface location to the subterranean formation; applying a friction reduction treatment to at least a portion of an inside surface of a casing; cementing the casing with the applied friction reduction treatment into at least a portion of the wellbore; and pumping into the wellbore a fluid at a pressure that exceeds a fracture pressure of the subterranean formation thereby forming at least one fracture within the subterranean formation wherein the fluid is in contact with at least a portion of the inside surface of the casing with the applied friction reduction treatment.
