Quando essa cimenta??o n?o ? bem realizada, h? o risco de ocorrer falhas e fraturas, tanto na forma??o quanto no pr?prio cimento. Quando os reservat?rios possuem uma baixa profundidade, eles tendem a fraturar mais facilmente, devido ao seu baixo gradiente de fratura, por isso, a densidade da pasta de cimento ? de suma import?ncia para equil?brio das press?es, evitando problemas de fraturas. ? ela que vai garantir a estabilidade das press?es atuantes entre o po?o e a forma??o. Tendo em vista que s?o necess?rias pastas mais leves para promover o isolamento, sem que haja esse faturamento, ? necess?rio formular sistemas cimentantes que reduzam a press?o hidrost?tica da coluna de cimento. Para isso, s?o adicionados, ?s pastas, materiais com fun??es de reduzir a densidade. Portanto, este trabalho teve como objetivo otimizar formula??es de pastas de cimento de baixa densidade, contendo bentonita para aplica??o em po?os rasos e com baixo gradiente de fratura, como tamb?m comparar a efici?ncia do aditivo estendedor bentonita adicionado a estas pastas, atrav?s da varia??o das densidades e concentra??es e observa??o do comportamento das propriedades reol?gicas, estabilidade e resist?ncia ? compress?o. As pastas foram formuladas com os seguintes valores de densidades: 12,0 lb/gal; 12,5 lb/gal; 13,0 lb/gal e 13,5 lb/gal, com diferentes concentra??es de bentonita (1,0; 2,0; 3,0 e 4,0 %) para cada composi??o. Os resultados obtidos atrav?s dos testes reol?gicos mostraram que o incremento da concentra??o de bentonita proporcionou o aumento das part?culas dispersas no meio, provocando o aumento dos par?metros reol?gicos para todas as densidades. Nos testes de estabilidade os melhores resultados obtidos foram para densidades mais elevadas, se tornando mais est?veis com concentra??es a partir de 3 %, n?o apresentando rebaixamento. Nos testes de resist?ncia ? compress?o, a pasta com densidade de 13,5 lb/gal com concentra??o de 4,0% de bentonita obteve uma maior resist?ncia mec?nica, por?m, muito viscosa, o que pode ser dificultoso para o bombeamento. Atrav?s das caracteriza??es de difra??o de raios-X (DRX) da bentonita pura foi observado a presen?a das fases montmonrilonita e quartzo, caracter?sticos dessa argila. No DRX das pastas de cimento de 13,5 lb/gal foi observado que houve a presen?a de Etringita, portlandita, silicato de c?lcio e quartzo. Observou-se tamb?m que nas imagens obtidas por microscopia eletr?nica de varredura (MEV) a pasta de 13,5 lb/gal com 4 % de bentonita mostrou notoriamente a presen?a de agulhas de etringita, como tamb?m as fases de portlandita e silicato de c?lcio, produtos da hidrata??o do cimento. Por fim, pode-se considerar que as pastas que obtiveram melhores resultados, s?o as pastas com densidade de 13,5 lb/gal, com concentra??es de 2,0 % e 3,0 %, por serem mais est?veis e resistentes mecanicamente, comparadas com as demais com densidades menores. / The cementing is one of the most important operations executed between the stages of drilling a oil well. When the cementation isn?t well performed, there?s the risk of to occur failures and fractures, both in formation as in the cement itself. When the reservoirs have low depth, they tend to fracture more easily, due to his low gradient of fracture, therefore, the density of the cement slurry is of utmost importance to balance the pressures, avoiding fractures problems. It?ll ensure the stability of the pressures acting between the oil well and the formation. Having in mind that are necessary paste more lightweight to promote the insulation, without there being this billing, is necessary to formulate cementing systems to reduce the hydrostatic pressure of the cement column. Thereunto, are added to folders, materials with functions to reduce the density. Therefore, this study had as objective formulations optimize of a cement slurry of low density containing bentonite for application in shallow oil wells and with low gradient of fracture, as well as to compare the efficiency of the bentonite extender additive added to these pastes, by of variations of the density and concentrations and observing of behavior of the rheological properties, stability and resistance to compression. The pastes were formulated with the follows density values: 12,0 lb/gal; 12,5 lb/gal; 13,0 lb/gal to 13,5 lb/gal with different concentrations of bentonite (1,0; 2,0; 3,0 and 4,0 %) for each composition. The results obtained through the rheological tests showed that the increase in the bentonite concentration afforded the increase in particles dispersed in the middle, leading to an increased of rheological parameters for all densities. In the stability tests the best results were obtained at higher densities, becoming more stable with concentrations from 3 %, showing no relegation. In the compressive strength tests, the paste with a density of 13,5 lb/gal with concentration of 4,0 % of bentonite got a higher mechanical strength, but very viscous, which may hinder the pumping. Through the characterization of X-ray diffraction (XRD) of pure bentonite was observed the presence of montmonrilonita and quartz phases which are typical of clay. The XRD of the cement pastes of 13,5 lb/gal was observed that there was the presence of etringite, portlandite, calcium silicate and quartz. It was also observed that the images obtained by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) the paste of 13,5 lb/gal with 4 % bentonite showed notoriously the presence of ettringite needles, as well as the steps of portlandite and calcium silicate cement hydration products. Finally, it can be considered that the paste have worked best, are the pastes with a density of 13,5 lb/gal, with concentrations of 2,0 % and 3,0 %, because they are more stable and mechanically strong, compared with the other with lower densities.

These deposits are in varying conditions of pressure and depth from a few hundred to several thousand meters. In general, shallow reservoirs have greater tendency to fracture, since they have low fracture gradient, ie fractures are formed even with relatively low hydrostatic columns of fluid. These low fracture gradient areas are particularly common in onshore areas, like the Rio Grande do Norte basin. During a well drilling, one of the most favorable phases for the occurrence of fractures is during cementing, since the cement slurry used can have greater densities than the maximum allowed by the rock structure. Furthermore, in areas which are already naturally fractured, the use of regular cement slurries causes fluid loss into the formation, which may give rise to failures cementations and formation damages. Commercially, there are alternatives to the development of lightweight cement slurries, but these fail either because of their enormous cost, or because the cement properties were not good enough for most general applications, being restricted to each transaction for which the cement paste was made, or both reasons. In this work a statistical design was made to determine the influence of three variables, defined as the calcium chloride concentration, vermiculite concentration and nanosilica concentration in the various properties of the cement. The use of vermiculite, a low density ore present in large amounts in northeastern Brazil, as extensor for cementing slurries, enabled the production of stable cements, with high water/cement ratio, excellent rheological properties and low densities, which were set at 12.5 lb / gal, despite the fact that lower densities could be achieved. It is also seen that the calcium chloride is very useful as gelling and thickening agent, and their use in combination with nanosilica has a great effect on gel strength of the cement. Hydrothermal Stability studies showed that the pastes were stable in these conditions, and mechanical resistance tests showed values of the order of up to 10 MPa / Em todo o mundo, ocorrem naturalmente dep?sitos de hidrocarbonetos, constitu?dos de petr?leo e g?s natural, contidos dentro de rochas denominadas "rochas reservat?rio", em geral arenitos ou carbonatos. Esses dep?sitos existem em variadas condi??es de press?o e profundidade, desde poucas centenas at? milhares de metros. Em geral, reservat?rios mais "rasos" t?m a tend?ncia a fraturar mais facilmente, pois possuem baixo gradiente de fratura, ou seja, as fraturas s?o formadas mesmo com colunas hidrost?ticas de fluido relativamente baixas. Essas zonas de baixo gradiente de fratura s?o particularmente mais comuns em zonas onshore, como aqui no Rio Grande do Norte. Um dos momentos mais prop?cios para a ocorr?ncia de fraturas ? durante a cimenta??o do po?o, ao se utilizar uma pasta cimentante de densidade superior ao m?ximo permitido pela estrutura rochosa. Al?m disso, em zonas j? naturalmente fraturadas, o uso de cimentos comuns causa perda de fluido para a forma??o, o que pode dar causa a cimenta??es falhas. Comercialmente, existem alternativas para o desenvolvimento de sistemas de pastas de cimento leves, mas esses falham ou em raz?o de seu elevad?ssimo custo, ou em fun??o das propriedades da pasta obtida n?o serem suficientemente boas para aplica??es mais gen?ricas, ficando restritas a cada opera??o para qual a pasta de cimento foi feita. Nesse trabalho foi realizado um planejamento estat?stico para determinar a influ?ncia de tr?s vari?veis, definidas como a concentra??o de cloreto de c?lcio, concentra??o de vermiculita e concentra??o de nano s?lica, nas v?rias propriedades do cimento. O uso da vermiculita, um min?rio de baixa densidade presente em grandes quantidades no nordeste brasileiro, como extensor para pastas cimentantes, permitiu a produ??o de pastas est?veis, com alta raz?o ?gua/cimento, propriedades reol?gicas excelentes e baixas densidades, que foram fixadas em 12,5 lb/Gal. Viu-se tamb?m que o cloreto de c?lcio ? um poderoso viscosificante e gelificante, e seu uso combinado com a nano s?lica possui grande efeito nas for?as g?is do cimento. Estudos de estabilidade hidrot?rmica mostraram que as pastas foram est?veis nessas condi??es, e os ensaios de resist?ncia mec?nica mostraram valores da ordem de at? 10 MPa
