Study Of Oil Well Squeeze Cementing Operations, Arthur Wellesley Walker
Study Of Oil Well Squeeze Cementing Operations, Arthur Wellesley Walker
Professional Degree Theses
"A study of the literature and field operations indicates conclusively that squeeze cementing operations are performed almost exclusively as corrective measures in completing or working-over wells. The most common use is to correct for faulty cement operations during original well completions. Careful study of field operations indicate that in most cases formations are broken-down at pressures far less than that required to lift the overburden, and that large quantities of drilling mud and cement may be pumped into the well (and formations) at pressures less than that of the overburden. Analyses of the forces indicate that the formations will be …

Caving Procedure At The Crestmore Limestone Mine Of The Riverside Cement Company, Riverside County, Calif., Randall Helt Wightman
Professional Degree Theses
"The following paper describes current mining practices of the Riverside Cement Company at its Crestmore Mine, Riverside, California. For a number of years the Riverside Cement Company obtained its raw materials by surface quarry operations, but after these deposits were exhausted for equipment available at that time, the Company started underground mining. Mine workings were begun in 1927 to 1930 for the recovery of limestone by block-caving methods"--Introduction, page 1.
