Abstract
A method of conditioning a well bore featuring an annulus () between a bore-lining tubing () and a surrounding bore wall () comprises pumping conditioning fluid through an inner tubing () located within the bore-lining tubing () and into a portion of the well bore containing the bore-lining tubing to affect the temperature of the portion of the well bore containing the bore-lining tubing. The annulus () between the bore-lining tubing () and the surrounding bore wall () is at least partially filled with settable material (). The affected temperature of the portion of the well bore containing the bore-lining tubing influences the setting of the settable material. For example, heating the bore may accelerate setting of the material, while cooling the bore may retard setting of the material.
