Cement Transfer
Once the cement is prepared, the well is
ready to be cased. Casing, also known
as cementing, isolates all water and
hydrocarbon-producing horizons from each
other, which helps prevent the well walls
from collapsing.
On average, it takes 55,000 gallons of
cement to transfer the mixture and complete
the process. That is why only the toughest
hose should be used for this intense process.
