  • Radiation-induced triggering for set-on-command compositions and methods of use
    Patent number: 8459355
    Abstract: Methods of isolating a portion of a wellbore comprising placing a sealant composition into a subterranean formation after drilling of the wellbore therein and subjecting the sealant composition to ionizing radiation wherein subjecting the sealant composition to the ionizing radiation alters the set modifier. The sealant composition comprises a set modifier selected from the group consisting of an accelerator, an oxidizing agent, a set retarder, and combinations thereof. And the sealant composition comprises a polymeric component.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 3, 2012
    Date of Patent: June 11, 2013
    Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.
    Inventors: Samuel J. Lewis, James Lynn Davis, Vijay Gupta, Michele Ostraat, David F. Myers, Mike Lamvik, Andrew K. Dummer, Vikram Rao, Lawrence Roberts, Anthony Badalamenti

  • Radiation-induced triggering for set-on-command compositions and methods of use
    Patent number: 8245783
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods useful for isolating a portion of a wellbore. In one embodiment, a method includes preparing a sealant composition containing a set modifier component. The sealant composition is placed into the wellbore and is subjected to ionizing radiation that alters the set modifier component, triggering the thickening of the sealant composition.

  • Radiation-induced triggering for set-on-command compositions
    Patent number: 8143198
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions useful for isolating a portion of a wellbore. In one embodiment, a composition includes a sealant composition containing a wellbore treatment fluid and a set modifier component. The sealant composition can be placed into the wellbore and subjected to ionizing radiation that alters the set modifier component, triggering the setting of the sealant composition.
