SentinelCem cement can be made acid soluble and hence can be
used across producing zones.
SentinelCem cement is very easy to mix, has a low viscosity to aid

in full-coverage placement while pumping, and develops early gel
strength and compressive strength. ese properties help in curing
losses when the slurry enters the fractures and small or medium
vugs. As the slurry enters the loss circulation zones the slurry
velocity is reduced and the slurry begins to gel due to the reduction
in shear rate.

HAL33264
SentinelCem cement did not pump-off during this test and had a viscosity of ~ 30 Bc even aer 24 hours at
190°F (87.8°C) indicating optimum viscosity for full-coverage placement.
SentinelCem™ Cement – Compressive Strength
HAL33265
SentinelCem cement achieved 10-second gel strength of 25 lbf/1002 and 10-minute gel strength of
140lbf/1002, reaching compressive strength of 50 psi in approximately 1 hour.
