Abstract

Cavern wells have their unique problems. Anaerobic technology has been used in various industries over the past 30 years. A special formulation has recently been developed to satisfy the unique needs of OCTG application. This Note descibes the development of an anaerobic sealant for oil field tubular connections and outlines actual field application and running procedures.
