Abstract

Optimising cement slurry properties is critical for successful zonal isolation and preventing wellbore failures in oil and gas operations. This research investigated the effects of dispersant (0.1-1.0% BWOC) and fluid loss additive (0.1-0.35 gal/sk) concentrations on thickening time and free fluid formation of Class G cement slurry using a 3² factorial design. Thickening time was measured with an atmospheric consistometer; free fluid via HTHP filter press. Analysis included ANOVA and multiple regression modeling. Key findings Dispersant strongly influences thickening time (R² = 0.981, RMSE = 8.731 min). Fluid loss additive controls filtration and moderately affects thickening time. Significant dispersant-fluid loss additive interaction (p = 0.040) indicates synergistic effects. Models enable predictive optimization of cement slurry properties
