UCA
By measuring the change in velocity of an acoustic signal, the Ultrasonic
Cement Analyzer provides a continuous non-destructive method of
determining compressive strength as a function of time.
SGSM
The Static Gel Strength Measurement (SGSM) device uses a vaned bob to
condition a cement slurry inside a pressurized test cell and measure static gel
strength at down-hole conditions. By directly measuring the forces required
to initiate movement in the sample, the SGSM provides an accurate way of
determining the static gel strength.
UCA
The cement slurry to be tested is placed in an autoclave unit with temperature
and pressure adjusted to simulate down hole conditions. An acoustic signal
is then transmitted through the cement sample. As the strength of the cement
increases over time, the acoustic signal travels faster through the sample.
SGSM
In an SGSM test, a vaned bob is submerged in the cement. During the test,
the bob turns periodically and measures the static gel strength of the sample.
