Abstract:Su":,mary. The successful cementing of boreholes in earthen formations requires careful control of the properties of cementing slurries and of the final set product. Accurate, dependable, time-efficient chemical analyses are prerequisites in determining quality of cement, additives, field blends, slurries, and set cement. A review highlighting chemical, spectrochemical, microscopic, and thermal methods of analysis of portland cement and oil,field cementing systems is presented.
