A method may comprise introducing an ultrasonic device into a wellbore with a cement slurry therein; generating ultrasonic waves with the ultrasonic device, wherein at least a portion of the ultrasonic waves are transmitted into at least a portion of the cement slurry; creating cavitation within at least the portion of the cement slurry with at least the portion of the ultrasonic waves; and allowing the cement slurry to set to form a hardened mass.

A computer implemented method of predicting a future maintenance event of a pumping equipment on a wellbore pumping unit comprising loading a pump usage log and a pump maintenance log into a predictive maintenance model. The predictive maintenance model is trained by a machine learning process with a historical database of completed pumping jobs. The predictive maintenance model determines a probability of a future maintenance event in response to the current pump usage. The unit controller displays an alert of the remaining pump life in comparison to a threshold value for a recommended pump maintenance period or a required pump maintenance period.

Predictive pump maintenance based upon utilization and operating conditions

A method of cementing may include: measuring a feeding rate of water and a feeding rate of cement blend into a cement blender; calculating a cement retarder feeding rate and/or an accelerator feeding rate using a thickening time model, wherein the thickening time model uses at least a thickening time requirement, the feeding rate of water, and the feeding rate of cement blend, to calculate the cement retarder feeding rate and/or the accelerator feeding rate; introducing a cement retarder at the cement retarder feeding rate and/or an accelerator at the accelerator feeding rate into the cement blender; mixing at least the water, cement blend, and at least one of the cement retarder and/or the accelerator in the cement blender to provide a cement slurry; and placing the cement slurry in a wellbore.

Real time tailoring of cement slurry for downhole thickening time

To reduce As difficulties associated with sub-site collaboration in hydrocarbon recovery, exploration, operation, or services environments, on-site collaboration between users is provided by including a multi-location virtual collaboration and monitoring system that enables multi-location virtual collaboration, monitoring, and data sharing, between users at sub-sites In hydrocarbon recovery, exploration operation, or services environments. A user may access real-time and stored data using one or more wearable or portable devices. Further, a user may configure data provision and data provision preferences for consumption of data In a variety of formats.

Well site collaboration system with smart technology

A system for measuring one or more physical properties of cementitious material is operable to cure a slurry of cementitious material under desired conditions of temperature and pressure. Particularly, the system may be operable to cure the slurry under a temperature and pressure expected to be experienced downhole. The system may also be used to determine properties of the cured cementitious material, such as maximum yield strength and shear bond strength at the desired temperature and pressure. The desired conditions of temperature and pressure may be applied both during curing and testing of the cementitious material.

In situ testing of mechanical properties of cementitious materials

A method for servicing a well comprises providing at least one trailer, providing at least one towing vehicle, providing servicing equipment, supporting the equipment with the trailer, and moving the towing vehicle, so as to move the trailer along with the equipment. The combination gross weight rating or combination gross vehicle weight of the trailer and the towing vehicle may be less than 26,001 pounds or less than less than the commercial drivers license threshold, under the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's regulations.

The present invention is directed to a system and method for mixing a fluid comprising water and at least one non-aqueous material. The system comprises a mixing tub and mixing head adapted to inject the fluid into the mixing tub. It also includes a plurality of lines connected to the mixing head that supply the mixing head with water and the at least one non-aqueous material and a recirculation circuit that delivers the fluid from the mixing tub back to the mixing head. The system further includes a sensor connected to the recirculation circuit that measures the concentration of water in the fluid. An automatic controller uses the concentration measurement data to control the amount of each of the ingredients injected into the mixing tub.

A fluid loss cell has an outlet through which fluid lost during a fluid loss test flows. This outlet is connected in closed pressure communication with a fluid measuring device that senses the amount of lost fluid received in the device and generates an electrical signal representative of the sensed amount. The signal is preferably provided to a computer so that automatic monitoring of the fluid loss occurs. The fluid measuring device contains blow off pressure and subsequent increased fluid amounts. Valves and pressure regulators are included in a preferred embodiment. A related method is disclosed.

An in-situ linear flow proppant conductivity test cell is provided which allows a downhole fracturing operation to be accurately simulated under laboratory conditions. The test apparatus includes a housing, having pistons therein, a plurality of heating elements, and a packer with a plurality of ports therethrough. Core samples are inserted into the test apparatus and a proppant bed, such as a sand slurry, is introduced into the test cell between the core samples. An external press then provides pressure to the pistons simulating the overburden experienced downhole, while the heating elements simulate downhole temperatures. Pressure, differential pressure, flow rate temperature and fluid loss characteristics can then be measured through the plurality of ports within the packer.
