Thickening time and compressive strength correlations for bentonitic-class G cement slurries

Abstract EN

Empirical equations for estimating thickening time and compressive strength of bentonitic-class "G" cement slurries were derived as a function of water to cement ratio and apparent viscosity (for any ratios).

How the presence of such an equations easily extract the thickening time and compressive strength values of the oil field saves time without reference to the untreated control laboratory tests such as pressurized consist meter for thickening time test and Hydraulic Cement Mortars including water bath (24 hours) for compressive strength test those may have more than one day.
