Abstract

Spacer fluids or chemical washes are prepared that comprise water, a hydraulic cement and particles of an oil-absorbent material. The particles are present in an amount sufficient to alter a property of a non-aqueous drilling fluid. The spacer fluid or chemical wash is placed in a subterranean well, whereupon the spacer fluid or chemical wash contacts residual drilling fluid on casing and formation surfaces. The oil-absorbent material in the spacer fluid or chemical wash may reduce the mobility of the drilling fluid, thereby improving zonal isolation.
