CemVision is able to produce 2D and 3D visualizations.
Understanding mud removal and cement
placement is a key factor to ensuring zonal
isolation. It is important in achieving wellbore
integrity to identify both the expected top
of circumferential cement coverage and any
possible risks of inter-zonal communication
due to low displacement efficiencies.
Accurately predicting the intermixing and
decay behavior of cementing fluids during
mud removal and cement placement is a
critical step in achieving planned results.
The Baker Hughes CemVision™ advanced
fluid displacement simulator is a pseudo-3D
computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulator,
providing numerical solutions to evaluate
cementing fluid intermixing and decay.
Casing eccentricity, as well as non-aqueous
fluid behavior accountability, strengthens the
platform used to predict the fluid positions
and integrity after cement placement. By
using the output data identified by the
CemVision software, in either 2D or 3D
visualization, solutions are tailored to reduce
the risks of intermixing and/or decay while
incorporating contingencies to meet the
placement objectives.
