This paper presents the development and field deployment of a cement-free geopolymer barrier system as a drop-in alternative to Class G cement in Indonesia's Pertamina Hulu Rokan field. Using 99% local materials, the system achieved comparable operational performance and an 83.5% reduction in embedded CO2, avoiding 16.56 tonnes per job. Extrapolated to Rokan operations, annual emissions could drop by up to 28,900 tonnes, supporting Indonesia's decarbonization goals.

📄 Abstract(原文)
Abstract Well construction is a major source of hard-to-abate emissions in the upstream sector, as primary and remedial cementing rely on high-emission Portland cement. Cement production releases roughly one metric ton of CO2 per ton due to limestone calcination and high-temperature processing. In Pertamina Hulu Rokan (PHR), annual cementing activities contribute more than 34,000 tonnes of CO2eq. To support Pertamina's 2060 net-zero mandate, a high-impact reduction opportunity was identified through low-carbon barrier technologies. This paper presents the multidisciplinary development, laboratory qualification, and field deployment of a novel cement-free geopolymer barrier system engineered as a drop-in alternative to conventional Class G cement under the tested field conditions. Unlike traditional systems, geopolymers generate mechanical integrity by eliminating the clinker step and its associated CO2 emissions. The designed geopolymer leveraged predominantly domestically sourced minerals, enabling favorable lifecycle energy and carbon intensity, supply-chain security, and broader sustainability impacts. A comprehensive laboratory testing program demonstrated that the geopolymer system offers stable rheology, flexible thickening time, minimal free fluid, and rapid strength development under a range of simulated surface-mixing and downhole conditions. These properties met or exceeded operational and integrity criteria for surface-casing applications at PHR. The field pilot—Indonesia's first use of cement-free geopolymer for well barrier and the world's first application of a 15.8-ppg geopolymer slurry with 99% local content—was successfully executed in the M-Field with unmodified existing rig equipment or procedures. Operational performance, evaluated via pressure testing and cement bond logs, confirmed placement quality, interfacial bonding, and zonal isolation comparable to Class G cement. Lifecycle analysis using the industry standard (IPCC 2021 CC-GWP100) showed an 83.5% embedded CO2 reduction versus Class G cement, avoiding 16.56 tonnes CO2 in a single job. Extrapolated across Rokan field operations, annual emissions could decrease by up to 28,900 tonnes without compromising reliability or well integrity. These results establish a technical foundation for scaling low-carbon geopolymer systems in mature basins and support Indonesia's broader decarbonization agenda in oil and gas operations.
