Petroleum and natural gas industries — Cements and materials for well cementing — Part 3: Testing of deepwater well cement formulations
This document provides procedures for testing well cements and cement blends for use in the petroleum and natural gas industries in a deepwater environment, or areas with a low seafloor temperature, or areas where low well temperatures exist. This document supplements API RP 10B-3, 2nd edition (2016), the requirements of which are applicable with the exceptions specified in this document. This document excludes the mitigation of shallow water flow in deepwater wells. NOTE This is addressed in API RP 65.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see www .iso

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore
structures for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 3, Drilling and
completion fluids, and well cements.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 10426-3:2003), which has been
technically revised.

This document supplements API RP 10B-3, 2 edition (2016).
The technical requirements of this document and API RP 10B-3 used to be identical. In the meantime,
nd
API RP 10B-3 has been technically revised as API RP 10B-3, 2 edition (2016). The purpose of this
document is to bring this document up-to-date, by referencing the current edition of API RP 10B-3 and
adding supplementary content.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— A clause on numerical pressure and temperature simulation has been added in order to allow
accurate determination of the pressure and temperature schedules required for the various tests;
— Strength determination at the casing shoe, the mudline, potential flow zones, top-of-liner and open-
or cased hole plug and squeeze locations is treated separately;
— Directions for sonic strength testing data reporting have been included;
— The laboratory procedures for both sonic and destructive strength measurements have been
expanded;
— A clause has been added on thickening time simulations for liner cementations with and without the
use of either liner-top packers or expandable liner hangers.

Introduction
The test methods contained in this document, though generally based on ISO 10426-2, consider the
specialized sampling/testing requirements and unique downhole temperature profiles found in
deepwater wells. ISO 10426-2 contains no applicable well simulation schedules for deepwater cementing
operations.
In a deepwater cementing environment, several factors impact the thermal history of the cement
slurry. These factors include: water depth, mud-line temperature, geothermal gradient, the presence or
absence of a drilling riser, drilling fluid temperature, ocean current velocity, presence of thermoclines
(layers of ocean water separated b
