Statedimportanceweightsversuscorrelationtolikelytorecommend The following matrix shows the correlation factors (an indication of derived importance) vs. the stated weights for all measured attributes (study questions). The four quadrants of the matrix show how various factors play in the customers supplier selection decision process. Thesefourquadrantsaredefinedas:
A. Baseline Requirements These attributes have a high stated importance but a low correlation to customers likelihood to recommend a supplier. They tend to be critical factors that would cause severe problems for asupplier that does not performadequately on them. Howeversince they do not correlate strongly to likelihood to recommend a supplier, the customer needs on these factors are probably being metbymostvendors.Thereforeadequateperformanceonthesefactorsisexpectedandnosupplierin thecurrentmarketisprovidingsomethingthatisfarsuperiortoothers.Thesteeringwheelinyourcaris goodexampleofabaselinerequirement.Youwouldntbuyacarwithoutone,butsincemostcarshavean adequatesteeringwheelitprobablydoesntaffectyourchoiceofacar.

WHERE DO YOU FEEL CURRENT CEMENTING TECHNOLOGY FALLS SHORT R&D in primary cementing. Additives and bonding. They should invest R&D resources to make better cement for production casing and well gas integration. We need new technology for light weight cement slurries. I believe that cementing services are improving; however, product providers should invest R&D resources in formation drilling as we still face problems with that. More R&D in the area of well head equipment. We are mainly facing issues around projections of the life of the well and we need most advanced technology on gas stops. Low cost lightweight cements. Better systems to distribute products to execute the job. Availability. Surface casing vent flow problems. Lightweight slurries and lost circulation. In filling microfractures in cement slurries. Sometimes we can't. In the line of asset find cement. Lost circulation. Deepwater technology. HP/HT well technology. Well control to be able to provide slurries to prevent any problem from cementing. HP/HT applications. None. Blends of cement. In all areas, it's setting times and the development of strength of the cement as well. Because if we want the cement to be set strong, we have to buy expensive additives or if we want it to be set quickly and have compressive strength, it costs a lot of money. Better quality cement. Improve blending and right angle cementing. Foaming. Channeling depth migration gas. Inject well leakage. Low density of slurries. Shale cementing. Well cleanout technology. HT & HP wells, complex wells. Technology and field personnel. Zone isolation. Quality assurance on equipment. HP/HT 20,000 PSI and 400 degrees F operating conditions. Need cementing "life of well" assurance. Trucks and equipment. Traveling distance to remote locations. Improve casing leakage, bleeds. High pressure, high temperature and deepwater technologies. Issues related to drilling in the far north. Permafrost cementing, especially when hydrates are present. Also cementing relating to salts environment. Cementing in HT/HP conditions. In spacers/cementing with low grades. Cementing log analysis. We need offshore technology because all technology is focused on land. Don't know. R&D in mud removal and cement placement. Reduce channeling. Cementing ERD wells. Horizontal cementing. Cement strength and availability of equipment. Deepwater issues. Zonal isolation of gas bearing zones. Shale cementing and cement to improve borehole stability, elastic cement. Improvement in equipment and product.

WHERE DO YOU FEEL CURRENT CEMENTING TECHNOLOGY FALLS SHORT Mechanical issues. Pump equipment, slurry and mixing. Innovative slurry design and life of oil cement, ESP in high temperatures. Gas intrusion out of cement. Software technology. They need to improve the surface for depleted zones. They should invest in technologies which are fit for purpose. They focus on a lot of big things due to which they have lost base business opportunities. Lightweight cement. More R&D on well control procedures while stripping. We have some challenges with HT cementing slurries. That's the only area where we feel technology falls short. Deepwater R&D on primarily HP/HT cementing for gas migration, zonal isolation. Specialty additives. Service and quality. Equipment and technology. Horizontal technologies. Quality cement jobs, better technology. Cementing additives and cement slurry system, cementing and completion tools. The equipment has not improved a lot in recent years, cementing equipment and simulation software needs to be improved. The performance of the cementing material isn't stable enough. Cementing quality is not good under high pressure and high temperature conditions, so the risk is comparatively high. Equipment and field personnel. Zonal isolation in narrow frac zones. Killing losses in cementing/fluid technology. There have been a lot of advances specifically for systems that can reduce gas migration, not just for activity here in this region, but other regions, which is a serious problem due to poor cement isolation. Light weight cement size, there are a few, but they tend to be very expensive, so it's a case of finding a light weight cement that isn't too erroneous specifically for the initial cementing area 26" or 30". Deeper lightweight cements are more technical, so if it costs a lot it's not an issue because it's a situation where the actual result is essential, so companies are prepared to pay more to get results. Increase the use of nitrogen, gas flow prevention. More efficient new equipment (cement pumping units and cement trucks that we use on land). There are lots of old equipment circulating and we need more efficient equipment. Cold weather technology. Reverse cementing, foam and lightweight and gas surface casing vent flows. Equipment and technology is improving, for most operators, what they essentially need is not state of the art technology as most of the wells are normal ones within technology limit. So getting good people to carry out designed cement job is preferable to edge state of the art technology. The accurate calculation on top of cement; stage tool improvement; cement slurry loss into formation. Cementing in lower pressure in sand presence.

WHERE DO YOU FEEL CURRENT CEMENTING TECHNOLOGY FALLS SHORT Lightweight slurries. Product design. Equipment and personnel. Light slurries. Material selection. We don't fall short anywhere, it's pretty basic. Isolation of water. High temperature geothermal cementing. Bonding issues. Decreasing capacity. Technology. None. Equipment and upgrading of maintenance services are the areas where they can invest R&D resources. We also struggle when we do shale and there are less chances of getting good cement. Progress light cement in lost circulation. Economy light cement. Understand gray cement color alteration zone in contract with zone of fragmented shale casing support. Understanding horizontal stress and pore pressure gradients. Gas migration - pad drilling underneath well pad. Higher strength with lower density. I think technology is current and efficient, but R&D needs a more suitable execution (off and on time cementing services). Pumping needs to have a solid design before lateral drilling. Mainly the blowouts, lost circulation, the trick wells. The density for cement holes for a better flow. Nothing at this time. Everything is pretty good right now. Training of personnel/staff. Management of all cement services (need to have continuous field education and new services). Knowledge needs to be improved in the field. Light slurries or swellables. More availability; equipment and personnel. Train personnel and lab support. Lightweight cement less than 1400. Chemical reactions. Cement and drilling fluids. Problems with cement plugs. Lost circulation. Loss circulation products. Physically placing cement in the annulus. Better quality cement. Improve the cleaning of the displacement plugs on long line production. They should invest in evaluation of CBL in order to identify the interaction between reading CBL and chemicals used and type of formation. They should find ways to make the cementing c bead below the well head. This is the area where we feel our current cementing technology falls short. R&D on the drill string washout. The cement mixes could be improved. Light cement for landfills in particular. The equipment is ok. Cement evaluation tool. Improved cementing equipment (pumps and heads). Cementing and environment when you have lost circulation problems. We don't feel current technology falls short anywhere. The technology which we're using is appropriate for us. Don't know.

WHERE DO YOU FEEL CURRENT CEMENTING TECHNOLOGY FALLS SHORT Shortage of rigs and cementing capability. Needs better pumping equipment. No cement return. Understand saturated fluids in CO2. Chemical reaction zones in casing cement. Plug launchers and the whole technology should be overall improved. Don't know. We haven't had any issue with technology. Low density slurries. The resources and the people around here are fine. Lightweight cements. HP environments. Equipment. Ok as is. Maintenance of equipment. Nothing, I think it's fine. Need better hardware. Better availability. A lighter blend with high compressive strength. The biggest issue is trying to cement well bores where there is lost circulation while drilling the hole. Stage tools develop leaks over time and an alternative is to use a foam cement application. Generally the work is fairly simple, no high temperatures. A lot of cement bond logs show cement to casing poor and cement to formation bond. Contamination because of oil based in mud hole. Training personnel/staff. Light slurries. Our current cementing technology is fine for us. We don't see any area where the service providers need to focus. Deepwater wellbore. Gas bubbles migration into cement. Aggregates and binders that are HP/HT resistant. The quality of staff, staff training and maintenance of equipment. We don't feel current technology falls short anywhere. It's difficult to train the people on this technology. Do more efficient gas-blow additions, results in some channels. Quality assurance and quality check of cement is a problem. We're not getting high end cements from cement manufacturers in Indonesia, so it's hard to have consistent slurries. We need the same quality in remote operations as we get in the oil field center, specifically laboratories. In urban environment, would like the process to be quieter, especially pump trucks. Lightweight systems - companies keep adding things to their systems. Need to simplify. Less chemicals. Cementing in depleted reservoir. Line cementation and cementation in annular clearances. The companies need to work on the relationship with field owner, most of these companies work in isolations. They're not able to monitor day to day activities and the materials used in the oil. Providing cement solutions that don't fail. We have too many wells where the cement fails because it shrinks and we have complications on the back of the casing. The cement pump doesn't hold up for the lifetime of the well. Dealing with water/zonal isolation. Well cleanout. Displacement technology. Isolating zones in horizontal wells.

WHERE DO YOU FEEL CURRENT CEMENTING TECHNOLOGY FALLS SHORT A lot of issues in the gulf coast areas where we get poor cement when we should be getting good ones. Could be a cement or a chemistry/formation issue. Deepwater. Foam cementing. Especially BJ Services. On the equipment - more updated equipment. Reliability of the equipment. Study gas migrations. Geothermal drilling, case cementing and lost circulation. Don't know. Technology personnel. Long term isolation in a changing environment of pressure. In depleting reservoirs, we don't have any long term integrity isolation. Adopt new health warnings for chemicals. R&D in selection of tools to improve overall job success. R&D on blending equipment. Continue to improve slurries designs to provide life of wells. Extenders for flexibility and continue research on gas block component. There is a lot of water influx and we're facing problems in production casing where the formation is very sensitive. Consistently achieve a good quality of cement bonds. Need higher pressure ratings. Proper displacement of drilling mount and reduce freefalling of cement. Product providers should invest R&D resources in well completion and offshore deep water technology. Drill string hiccups. CO2 leakage paths, durability of cement systems. The ability to rotate casing while cementing on land. Our fields are simple, but maybe in light slurries for lost circulation. Nothing. Everything is pretty good right now. Putting money into software/simulation and cementing equipment bulk. It's fine for us. We don't see any area where current technology falls short. Time efficiency. New blends - set up before fall away to permeable formations. R&D for thickening times. In cementing system in lower balance (underbalanced wells). In light slurries. Improving curing losses to the surface. Improve thermal cementing still get leaks. In light slurries, remedial cementing. Increased pump rates. Slurries in underbalanced wells. All is well for now. (Tools for TRRS training). Evaluating the cementing with the record, because it is not reliable. How to evaluate if the cementing has been successful, or will change at the end. Now all suppliers have the same technology and equipment and cementing area. Maybe something different like tubing at the end cementing. Technology - field operations. Now all needs met. We have good technology and services. Increasing pump capacity and rates. HP/HT cements.

Lightweight cements, low specific gravity cement. R&D in mixing equipment. Cement plugs - difficulty. Oil based muds. Cement practices have declined in past few years. The suppliers see to have forgotten turbulent flow, reciprocation and rotation. Don't know. They need to invest in low pour pressure, fracture pressure, and lightweight cementing solutions.

WHERE DO YOU FEEL CURRENT CEMENTING TECHNOLOGY FALLS SHORT Subsidence. High porosity sands. Problem with micro analysis. Problems with cross flow. Additives and cementing head technology are the areas where we feel our current cementing technology falls short. High density cementing is the area where we feel current cementing technology falls short. We don't have availability of equipment offshore (gas migration). On the research side, some suppliers fall short. On conventional cementing, it seems to be standing still with no development or improvement. Deepwater technology. Spacer/displacement technology. Low density cements. We're ok. There is nothing that we feel current technology falls short of. We have all of the latest technologies available in the market. Cement slurries for low pressure/depleted application. Foam cement, cement with lost circulation additives. Very lightweight slurries. Qualified operators/staff. Lightweight slurries. There are currently no major shortcomings for what we're trying to achieve. Lots of new technologies are being tried by the cementing companies. If anything, more research is required in the field of HP/HT. Cement material. Overbuilt equipment. Little jobs, reasonable prices. Replace portland cement with better cements, a low pressure drop line hangers. Purely where we're based and the relationship we have with our suppliers, the problem we have is the fine-tuning of recipes and the time it takes to run several samples. Horizontal cementing. On vertical, availability of crews and equipment. They should provide effective cementing jobs. Nothing specific, but all technological advancements are to be welcomed. Lightweight fluids or slurries. Improve the quality in terms of cementing plugs and cementing heads. Winter time. Security and supply. Tube squeeze, long string job. Well cost models, casing issue.

HOW GREAT IS THE NEED FOR IMPROVEMENTS MANAGED PRESSURE OR UNDERBALANCED WELLS Foam nitrified. Very difficult to do at the moment. If putting the cement into sealed system which is generally underbalanced, it is a sealed system so you have to deal with the possibility of venting the system by pumping the cement out of pressurized containment systems. Lower density slurries. Techniques to help get plate cement in place on borderline wells. Slurrie design. Prevent annular flow after cementing. Predictive model. We need a light weight slurries and good chemical resistance and folk strings. Knowledge and skilled. Reliability of annular isolation, as cement jobs are very unreliable. A better understanding of the application. Equipment that won't go overbalanced. Ultra light weight slurries is required. There are lot of depleted formations and reservoirs, so we need a lot of improvements there as it is very critical. Cementing system. In the use light slurries. Improve on pressure balancing. Need a system where cement can be circulated without changing the bottom hole pressure significantly which means that cement system would drop especially for managed pressure drilling. Need to redesign the cement additives by adding more chemicals to fulfill the well design. Find right combo for those depleted wells. Light slurries to resist more. Need light slurry to ensure isolation of the cement from the well. It is a new and challenging technology in drilling therefore it requires continuous improvement for sometime. They need to develop reverse cementing procedures. Technology.

WHAT KEY ISSUES OR PROBLEMS ARE YOU EXPERIENCING WITH CEMENTING YOUR HORIZONTAL WELL SECTIONS (IF DEVIATED MORE THAN 60 DEGREES) Quality bonding, removal of muds and muds displacement are the few areas where we are facing problems. Channeling is the most common problem we are facing because we have horizontal holes and cement lays which are on the low side, so the plan of action is channeling which will allow communication between the zones. Centralization and contamination of the cement are the key issues where we are experiencing with cementing the horizontal well sections. The issues that we are facing are mainly with centralization and rotation of the liner. Most of the times, the liner does not rotate and it creates a lot of problems. We also have some problems with the mud displacement and hole clean up. We don't cement horizontal wells. Good hole cleaning. Cementing in long narrow wells. Drilling string issues no cementing issues. Adequate zonal isolation. Micro annulus that forms on top of the horizontal part. Annual isolation: it is hard to get isolation when you work on horizontal wells. We dont get desired isolated casing shape. Cement displacement. Problems in shales/clays. Well instability (old wells/reservoir). Channeling. Contamination of cement with mud is the area where we are facing issues. Lost of circulation. Zonal isolation. We have not started our operations in this area so till now we don't have any experience in any cementing job in our area. Difficulty getting cement coverage. Uniform cement placement around tubulars. Underground blowouts. We don't cement horizontal well sections, as we have open hole completions only. Do not run bond logs in horizontal section. Bonding issues. Channeling. Poor bonding issues. Zonal isolation. Casing centralization and the cementing quality at highly deviated sector. The cement ring lacks elasticity, it is easily broken under the repetition of high pressure stress, the experience of the on site engineer, the advantage and disadvantage of the cementing equipment and tools. Need better stability. 360 degree coverage (complete hole isolation). Channeling. A lot of times dont cement the horizontal portions due to missing the top portion. Centralization. How to guarantee the cementing effect of the extended reach well.

SCHLUMBERGER - WEANESSES Their prices a little high. Their prices are very high. Their prices are high hence this is their weakest area. They need to improve on their equipment quality. They don't have consistent products. Improve more on job performance. The quality of people. The same more trained staff. Supplier services. Too expensive sometimes to justify use. Cost. Field equipment. Poor customer relations and that tends to be their reputation globally not just here in Algeria. Too expensive. Price is too high. Simulation. High costs. Still the most expensive. High prices. Too expensive. Safety, reliability and price. We had no follow up from them. I was displeased with them. They are not that much experienced. Less experienced staff. Weaker additive line. They are weak in their support. Their pricing structure is weak. Since their people are doing variety of jobs, they are not customer focused. Improve on loss of cement to the liner. They are not that big in cementing area. No weak points, in my opinion. With very small market share in cementing, unbalance in business development. Improve more on site mixing equipment. Most expensive, poor technical support sometimes. Field personnel do not have that much experience. Cost/prices. Pricing competitiveness. Availability (# of jobs.) Price/costs. Technology. Improve more on oil base mud investigation. Technical support. Price cost. Quality of people. Availability is the area they need to improve on. Availability and price cost. Cost. Flexibility. Availability. Experienced personnel in the field. Consistency. Upper management. Availability and cost.

SCHLUMBERGER - WEANESSES Customer service - personnel staff. Too expensive/arrogant. Could improve their upgrading equipment. Laboratory. Their weakness is that their personnel is arrogant. Cost - capability to reduce cost. Their light slurry. Slow response. Very expensive. Their service is very poor. Most expensive. Lack efficient field wide flow system. Poor performance of the well rate. Poor analysis of problems. Customer service/availability. Keep personnel in one location rather than moving them about. Very expensive. Communication between client and the service company. Tech support. The people - C5R/ Tech support. Customer service. Cost. Equipment not working reliably. They need to improve their pricing structure and customer service. Dont seem to care about smaller companies - not a priority. Equipment failure. Sometimes they equipment gives problems. When dealing with Schlumberger you always feel they would want to trick you a bit if they could - they are a little too smart on costing, and could be more trustworthy. When dealing with other companies you feel there's more of a gentlemanly Still the most expensive. Price/responsiveness/availability. Most expensive. Price. Salesperson relationship. They need to be price competitive. Less experienced people on shore. Field personnel. Too young and inexperienced. Personnel training is their main weakness. Their area of weakness is their stringent policies due to which it becomes inconvenient for us to work with them. They are too scared to get equipment on the ground. They need to be price competitive. In service, results, equipment and technology. The amount of equipment. Reliable equipment. Cement blends product. Prices.

SCHLUMBERGER - WEANESSES Feel like they are just selling a job- not client focused, always dealing with different people so no continuity of service. They send trainees on what they consider to be an easy job- they seem to have an arrogant attitude to clients. Cementing technology. High cost. Improve equipment. Cementing services. Open to the market. Technology. Always the most expensive. In sales, when we need call tender process they send your attorney. (It's a big story.) Improve on cement planning procedures. Prices. Technology, prices, customer services. High prices. Customer support. Improve more on the PI models. Too technical. Improve more on specific technology. It's trade policy (commercial policy). Enlarge its service range and to increase its market share. Trade policies. They tend to transfer people all over the globe so you dont know how proficient in language or area of knowledge. They are slow in responding. Their high pricing is their weakest attribute. Their pricing is very high which has become their weakest attribute. Reduct the price a little bit. When you do customize cementing the cost goes up so economical customized solutions they need to work. Engineering. Experienced staff. Improve prices. Their products are too complicated. They don't have enough experience in our area. Their personnel are lacking in expertise. Crew experience. Price high. They are weak in their maintenance. The biggest issue we had with them was the technical support which was very poor. Their pricing is very high which has become an area of improvement for them. All is ok. Capable personnel in the field. More technical staff. They need to improve on professionalism of their personnel. Their field personnel are inexperienced. Their personnel needs to be improved.

This instability is their weakness. Cost. Cost. Consistency around the world. Technology. The deployment of technology. Cost. Technology. Improve more on remedial cementing. Quality is iffy sometimes performance in the field. Everything else. Still most expensive and can be unresponsive. They need to improve on support and services. Most expensive. Slow response. Price. NE.US- service quality issues - new to area so haven't gotten into groove them. Lack equipment, experience, lax on policies. Availability/ price cost. Lack of response. Price.
