Zonal Isolation and Cement: Innovations in Annular Integrity and Natural Sealing Mechanisms

Tuesday, 17 March
Grand Ballroom A
Technical Session
This session will explore cutting-edge approaches to maintaining and restoring wellbore integrity, focusing on the evolving role of cement systems and the potential of natural geo-mechanical processes. Attendees will gain insights into how formation behavior, diagnostic technologies, and cement design converge to redefine well integrity strategies across the lifecycle—from drilling to abandonment.
