Prefigurations of Intercultural Thinking: Explorations in Ancient Mediterranean and Chinese Sources
Authors: Steppat Michael , Tong Rongtian
Published: March 2022

Abstract A very recent history of intercultural communication traces the field back to the formation of culture as a concept in mid-17th century Europe. Does this mean that interculturality came into being at that time? If it is indeed only a fairly recent development, it
will not have strong roots in our collective civilizational history and might thus be easily overturned by countercurrents. We should therefore inquire whether earlier documentations of interculturality exist. This essay examines the earliest expressions of intercultural thought that are still
accessible to us, while acknowledging that any so-called first traces are already marked by echoes and duplications. Hence the essay offers a synthesis which has not been attempted before. We find early expressions of interculturality in the Mediterranean region, a fertile contact zone connecting
the European, African, and Asian continents, but equally in ancient China. The chief categories that are discernible from the records are foreign languages, countering ethnocentric bias, travel experience, and cosmopolitan thought. The evidence shows that historical discourses form irreducible
interactional identities, and that these are effective in shaping the growth of major analytical perspectives which concern us at present. Accordingly, what might seem to be remote historical experience can gain a new role in our time’s emerging multicultural global order.
Influence of Capacity Building of Counsellors on Teenage Pregnancy in Public Secondary Schools in Ruiru Sub-County, Kiambu County, Kenya
Authors: Gakinya Juliah Wambui , Chui Mary Mugwe , Muiru Anne
Published: March 2022

Capacity building plays an important role in equipping counsellors with skills to enable them undertake their tasks of reducing incidences of teenage pregnancy in public secondary schools. However, in Ruiru Sub- County, cases of teenage pregnancy in public secondary schools are still high. Thus, this study sought to assess the influence of capacity building of counsellors on teenage pregnancy in public secondary schools in Ruiru Sub- County, Kiambu County, Kenya. The objectives were; to assess the level of teenage pregnancy and the influence of capacity building of counsellors, motivation of counsellors, provision of counselling materials and implementation of counselling reports on teenage pregnancy in public secondary schools. The study was based on the open systems theory and theory of planned behaviour. The study applied a mixed methodology and thus adopted a concurrent triangulation research design. Qualitative data were analysed thematically along the objectives and presented thematically in narrative forms. Quantitative data were analysed descriptively using frequencies and percentages and inferentially using One-Sample t-Test analysis with the help of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 23) and presented using tables. The study established that there have been many cases of teenage pregnancy in public secondary schools. It was also found that implementation of counselling programmes has been a challenge with capacity building of counsellors not effectively undertaken in secondary schools. The study recommends that secondary schools should organize seminars and workshops to train teachers and peer- counsellors on how to undertake counselling activities. The Ministry of Education (MoE) should set and allocate some amount of money to offer as incentives to teachers and students who undertake counselling activities and tasks besides their classroom activities.
The role of γδ T cells in the context of allogeneic stem cell transplantation
Authors: Handgretinger Rupert , Lang Peter , Queudeville Manon
Published: March 2022

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is currently the only curative approach for a variety of malignant and non-malignant diseases. In the early transplant era, the intent of this treatment was to apply an intensive myeloablative regimen to eliminate residual malignant cells followed by the hematopoietic rescue of the patients with donor hematopoietic stem cells. However, the focus has shifted over time and allogeneic transplantation is nowadays seen as a cellular therapy in which the donor-derived immune system mounts an anti-infectious and especially an anti-tumor effect in the posttransplant phase. In order to further augment the anti-tumor effect, various approaches have been developed, including the manipulation of the donor-derived immune system in vivo or the adoptive transfer of ex vivo-expanded donor-derived effector cells. Based on their lack of alloreactivity, γδ+ T cells are shifting into the spotlight of research in the context of allogeneic transplantation. Their exploitation with regard to their anti-infectious and anti-tumor properties and their in vivo and ex vivo manipulation will lead to new therapeutic approaches to improve the outcome of patients after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. In this review, the important role of γδ+ T cells in allogeneic matched and mismatched transplantation is summarized and an outlook is discussed on how to best make use of this unique cell population.

Authors: Linn Eike , Schmidt Heidemarie
Published: March 2022

Memristive computing will be advantageous in large-scale, highly parallel mixed-mode processing architectures because processing can be performed directly within memristive memory architectures and intrachip communication can be implemented by a memristive crossbar structure with reconfigurable logic gates. Here we report on the development of a new concept for in-memory adders, using XOR functionality. Exploited memristive crossbar structures are based on memristive complementary resistive switches, e.g. TaOx, and BiFeO3.
Student Perceptions on the Effectiveness of Collaborative Problem-based Learning Using Online Pair Programming Tools
Authors: Kotsovoulou Maira , Stefanou Vassilia
Published: March 2022

his paper describes a qualitative study of how undergraduate students majoring in Information Technology perceive the effectiveness and evaluate the learning experience of pair-programming. The phenomenographic research approach was used to analyze student interviews and revealed 4 categories of descriptions: Effective Problem Solving, Participation, Enjoyment and Coding. Pair-programming as a teaching methodology was commonly perceived as a positive experience. The resulting outcome space maps a logical hierarchy of students’ conceptions of reality (categories of description). Findings of this research identify the factors that affect student engagement in a problem-solving process and can be used as a guiding principle on how to improve students’ learning experience of computer programming.
Integral estimation of efficiency of use of production component of potential of economic security of enterprise
Authors: Kopcha Yurii
Published: March 2022

It is noted that the constant and rapid change of environmental influences requires enterprises to identify and anticipate possible threats to their activities. This actualises the problem of timely assessing such a complex object as the potential for economic security, which is able to ensure continuity and rhythm of production and counterbalance the negative effects of individual factors, in some way to guarantee the preservation of such a complex socio-economic system as an enterprise. The purpose of the study is to develop an approach to assess the industrial component of economic security of enterprises. The methodological basis of the research are scientific works of the classics of economic science, work and publications of leading scientists and specialists on the problem of enterprise security management, combining theoretical and scientific methods: analysis, synthesis, theoretical and logical generalization. An approach is proposed to evaluate the production component of an enterprise’s economic security, which allows to characterize the level of production resource adequacy to ensure extended reproduction, identify the main aspects of the enterprise’s activity that negatively affect the potential of economic security and provide the most acceptable directions for its enhancement. Based on the regression analysis, a multifactor model for evaluating the production component of the enterprise’s economic security potential is constructed. The indexes of the regression statistics of the model are presented, which show that the relationship between the integral index of the production component of the potential of economic security of enterprises and its factor indicators is characterized as high, close to close. It is suggested to interpret the integral index on a Harrington scale, which allows to give the indicator a meaningful content. It is noted that in accordance with the criterion scale of assessment during 2013 – 2018 the values of the integral indicator of the production component of the economic security potential of the studied enterprises are decreasing. This reflects their lack of activity in the production activity, which creates the preconditions for the fall in the level of economic security potential, hinders the introduction of scientific and technological progress. It is substantiated that the successful functioning of the enterprise requires a rational system of measures to ensure its economic security, with the main risks associated with the production component of the economic security of the enterprise.

Late sign language exposure does not modulate the relation between spatial language and spatial memory in deaf children and adults
Authors: Karadöller Dilay Z. , Sümer Beyza , Ünal Ercenur , Özyürek Aslı
Published: March 2022

Prior work with hearing children acquiring a spoken language as their first language shows that spatial language and cognition are related systems and spatial language use predicts spatial memory. Here, we further investigate the extent of this relationship in signing deaf children and adults and ask if late sign language exposure, as well as the frequency and the type of spatial language use that might be affected by late exposure, modulate subsequent memory for spatial relations. To do so, we compared spatial language and memory of 8-year-old late-signing children (after 2 years of exposure to a sign language at the school for the deaf) and late-signing adults to their native-signing counterparts. We elicited picture descriptions of Left-Right relations in Turkish Sign Language (Türk İşaret Dili) and measured the subsequent recognition memory accuracy of the described pictures. Results showed that late-signing adults and children were similar to their native-signing counterparts in how often they encoded the spatial relation. However, late-signing adults but not children differed from their native-signing counterparts in the type of spatial language they used. However, neither late sign language exposure nor the frequency and type of spatial language use modulated spatial memory accuracy. Therefore, even though late language exposure seems to influence the type of spatial language use, this does not predict subsequent memory for spatial relations. We discuss the implications of these findings based on the theories concerning the correspondence between spatial language and cognition as related or rather independent systems.

Authors: HERMKENS FREEK , BUUREN TOM VAN , KORT SEBASTIAAN
Published: March 2022

This essay proposes a Business Process Management (BPM) maturity model. The developed BPM maturity model is based on the review of existing models combined with the in-sights of BPM professionals. The developed model enables organizations to gain insight into their own operations, and also supports in setting up a roadmap for improvement. It offers a stepping stone with which organizations can determine whether their ambitions are in line with their initial situation. Overall this essay provides a first overview of a framework for a detailed analysis of BPM capabilities within organizations. Further research on this BPM maturity model should be done by empirically testing the model in multiple business environments.
Ancient Refugee Policies reviewed with the International Law Acquis of Today
Authors: Bikard Florian , Karp Benjamin , Huang Yu
Published: March 2022

The article revisits the refugee policies of Ancient Athens and Ancient Rome and highlights how exploring them reveals the value of the contemporary acquis of international law for actively addressing refugee crises triggered by military invasion. The nexus between refugee flows, the undermining of ancient civilizations, and the value of legal corpuses has long been overlooked by contemporary literature. It is a gap that the article intends to fill by inquiring possible explanations for Athens’ and Rome’s failures in managing the Attican and Gothic refugee crisis. The article offers a historical analysis of the abovementioned refugee crises. The contribution of this article is two-fold: the article not only calls attention to the unpreparedness and lack of foresight in the refugee policies of the Ancient Athenians and Romans, but it also highlights how certain mistakes could have been avoided and why these failures remain relevant to modern society from an international law perspective. The results of the analysis are supported robustly by the triangulation of ancient testimonies with modern academic references.
COVID-19, Migrants, Refugees, Mobile Workers: Global Assessment and Action Agenda
Authors: Taran Patrick , Kadysheva Olga
Published: March 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected millions of migrants, refugees, asylum-seekers, and stateless persons as well as IDPs worldwide. At the same time, the dependence of economies and societies on migrant and refugee labour to perform essential work in such sectors as healthcare, transportation, services, agriculture, food production and distribution, construction, industry, commerce, and others became even more obvious. However, many policies and actions addressing COVID-19 at the beginning of the pandemic were established with little or no consideration for migrants and refugees, resulting in excessive COVID cases, high mortality rates, unemployment, and loss of livelihood across migrant and refugee populations. The paper argues that a comprehensive and rights-based package of measures is needed for effective response to the pandemic, relevant and proportionate to prevent the spread of coronavirus and allowing for people and economies to sustain socio-economic development on local, national, and regional levels. Based on in-depth review and critical analysis of literature as well as synthesis of approaches and recommendations contained in guidance documents from international organisations, the paper provides policy lines and actions/action steps on COVID-19 and migrants and refugees. It covers the interrelated issues of health and healthcare including vaccination; non-discrimination and inclusion; social protection; employment; community support and protection; gender; refugee specific measures; cross-border mobility; data, narrative, and communications; and recovery. Only a comprehensive package of measures that includes migrants, refugees, asylum seekers, stateless persons and IDPs in national and local COVID-19 responses can possibly solve challenges posed by the pandemic in our global, mobile, interconnected and interdependent world.

В статье рассмотрены вопросы повышения плодородия в системе земледелия с учетом эколого-мелиоративного состояния орошаемых регионов и методы оптимизации моделей модернизации почвенного плодородия. Из анализа приведенных материалов установлено, что под влиянием растительности меняется численность и качественный состав микроор-ганизмов, а, следовательно, и интенсивность процессов, в которых они участвуют. Такие изменения в почвах является результатом взаимодействия растений и микроорганизмов, которые определяют степень развития и питание сельскохозяйственных культур. В связи с этим считаем, что назрела необходимость изучение микрофлоры ризосферы для разработки приемов, благоприятно влияющих на ее развитие и состав, на улучшение питания растении и получение высоких урожаев с учетом энергетических ресурсов конкретной местности.Исследованиями установлены, что содержание гумуса, образовавшегося в результате многообразных и сложных физико-химических процессов, способствовали улучшению водно-физических и химических свойств почвы опытного участка. Изученные культуры позволили повышению содержания гумуса в пахотном слое от 1,43 до 1,75%. В пахотном слое общий азот составил 0,088- 0,112, фосфора 0,110- 0,153%.Исследованиями выявлены, что структура формирования природной среды уровень гумусообразования почвы (Мр), которые показывает, что максимальное число факторов, воздействующих на почвообразовательный процесс, сосредоточены на уровне ландшафтных провинции и географических местности описывается следующим выражением:Мр= (0,42Rн + 0,15ß +0,09Sn + 0,09Тв + 0,08WВ + 0,04Vв+0,04Ос + 0,03 Мор+0,03hгр)*0,1μ;

Published: March 2022

Наряду с такими факторами, как повышение сохранности, улучшение качества кормов, суточных рационов, оптимизация условий содержания птицы, широкое применение получают различные кормовые добавки. Эффект таких добавок обусловлен их регули-рующим влиянием на интенсивность процессов переваривания и использования питательных веществ корма, что создает возможность целенаправленного управления этими процессами. В статье приведены результаты исследований при использовании регуляторного комплекса «Байпас» в кормлении цыплят-бройлеров по периодам роста и развития. Регуляторный комплекс «Байпас» нормализует энергетический обмен (набор органических кислот принимающих участие в цикле трикарбоновых кислот), активирует деятельность печени (гепатопротектор, флавоноиды), стимулирует функционирование кишечника (пробиоти-ческие компоненты) повышает ферментативную активность (витамины) и обогащает организм птицы комплексом аминокислот. «Байпас» является специальной кормовой добавкой, которая содержит аминокислоты, несинтезирующие в организме птицы, такие как лизин, метионин, триптофан, треонин [13]. Рядом исследований выявлено, что «Байпас» отлично замещает функции искусственных аминокислот в организме, в особенности метионина. Способствует улучшению обмена веществ у птицы при ликвидации метабо-лических нарушений, что приводит к удлинению периода продуктивности и повышением нормативных показателей. В результате проведенных исследований отмечено, что наличие в комбикормах данного комплекса положительно сказывается на жизнеспособности и динамики роста и развития птицы. Замена стандартных аминокислот на регуляторный комплекс «Байпас» (3-я группа) позволила раскрыть генетический потенциал цыплят-бройлеров кросса «Росс-308» и получить максимальные результаты по продуктивности.

Limitations of Brain-based Lie Detection
Authors: Budaházi Árpád
Published: March 2022

Brain-based lie testing methods are still very much in the experimental phase, and it is not yet proven whether there is any method that directly examines the human brain that is suitable for lie testing. Even if a method works, it is necessary to clarify the concerns and doubts that it raises. What would be the procedural and forensic limitations of such a method, and at what stage of criminal proceedings would it be appropriate? There are many questions and doubts, yet there are criminal cases overseas in which some methods considered suitable for lie detection, such as brain fingerprinting, have been used. These attempts were premature, and the method should have been validated before it was tried in a criminal case.
Maintenance of Order in the Honourable House - Establishment and Role of the Guard of the House of Representatives
Authors: Lippai Zsolt , Nagy Tamás , Uricska Erna , Barnucz Nóra
Published: March 2022

The study aims to present the establishment, the development and the role of the Guard of the House of Representatives. The House of Representatives was one of the most important scenes of the political skirmish in the age of dualism. This is well illustrated also by the fact that the contemporary publicists referred to it generally as ‘arena’. The study presents the Guard of the House of Representatives in detail, like in a historical documentary, and takes the reader through the whole spectrum of the period under consideration, from dualism to the present day. The Guard of the House of Representatives had started working in 1913. The first years of its operation were influenced not only by the international events but also by the increasing internal political conflicts. Despite the difficulties, the Guard became one of the most important elements of the contemporary maintenance of order within some years. This is exactly indicated by the fact that its historical traditions were used also by the policing after the turn of the millennium. Besides the main purpose of the study, the authors also aim to introduce the Parliamentary Guard, whose role is to continue the historical traditions of the Guard of the House of Representatives in the current political and administrative environment.

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a possible human carcinogen commonly found in various agricultural commodities worldwide. While this potent nephrotoxin tends to survive common food processes and contaminate food products, certain process with higher temperature treatments may reduce OTA contents. Roasting has been suggested as a possible method to reduce OTA in coffee beans with up to 90% reduction, which may be applied to other food commodities. In this study, the possible influence of fibres on the reduction of OTA was investigated with brown and white rice with 2.2 and 6.7% of total dietary fibre content, respectively, roasting at two different temperatures (160 and 200 °C) for up to 30 min. The results showed that the rate and extent of OTA reduction were dependent on time, temperature, and rice type; greater than 60% of OTA reduction were achieved at 200 °C for 30 min for white rice and 37% for brown rice at the same conditions. No significant differences in reduction were observed between the samples roasted at 160 °C for 30 min and 200 °C for 15 min for both the white and brown rice, while white rice roasted at 160 °C for 15 min during roasting may be affected by the presence of fibre and/or fat in the cereal grains.

Gamified Learning of Project Business Skills
Authors: Koivisto Matti
Published: March 2022

During the recent years, scholars have paid a lot of attention to game-based and gamified learning. Although recent studies have offered some mixed results, most scholars believe that gamification increases the student engagement, collaboration, and communication. In our study, we applied gamification to learn skills required to manage a large project portfolio with many simultaneous project and project opportunities. In the empirical part of the study, we investigate post-graduate students’ feedback on the project portfolio management (PPM) workshop using both content and sentiment analysis. The complexity of the human nature makes studies on learning extremely challenging and vulnerable to human errors and biases. To increase the accuracy of our study we applied a machine learning assisted approach and used machine learning both to validate the conceptual framework of our study and to verify the correctness of the manual feedback categorization. The results of the experiment indicate that students’ sentiment towards the PPM workshop was positive, and gamification seems to be a suitable method of learning project business skills. The more detailed analysis revealed that a gamified PPM workshop is a motivating method of learning the creation of the management system for an organization and different kinds of portfolio management tasks like resource allocation, scheduling, and prioritization. Similarly, this kind workshop seems to be a less suitable way to study financial management and especially the customer and supplier network management.
Market share transparency, signaling and welfare: Cournot and Bertrand
Authors: Spector David
Published: March 2022

When demand is noisy and firms’ costs are private information, the availability of market share data increases the accuracy of each firm’s information, and it creates incentives for signaling. Taking both effects into account, we find that under quantity competition with a homogeneous good, the availability of market share data has a positive impact on total surplus and an ambiguous one on consumer surplus. Under price competition with differentiated substitutes, it has a negative impact on consumer surplus and an ambiguous one on total surplus. If the cost difference is small, the effect of first-period signaling dominates the effect of second-period full information. Accordingly, in this case, the availability of market share data causes total and consumer surplus to increase in the case of quantity competition and to decrease in the case of price competition.JEL classification: C73, D82, L13.
Hydrocarbon Saturation Determination in Case of Total Losses: Invasion Profile Modelling with Dual Resistivity – A Possible Application in PMCD Drilling
Authors: Ling Kuok Hsu , Zulkiply Hapiz
Published: March 2022

Objectives/Scope

Formation evaluation and appraisal in Central Luconia carbonate reef is challenging when drilling operation change from conventional drilling to pressurised mud cap drilling (PMCD). PMCD drilling has always been the choice to deal with unmanageable losses condition. It is normally applied in carbonate reservoir with karst and vugs. Under this drilling condition, annular pressure and surface pressure is maintained above the formation that is able to take the cuttings and fluids. At the same time, light annular fluid is pumped down the annulus to maintain hole fill and avoid gas migration. Seawater, acts as sacrificial mud is pumped down the drill string to cool the bit and to transport the cuttings to loss zones.

Meanwhile, for an exploration well, the primary objective is to prove hydrocarbon presence and hydrocarbon fluid contact through logging while drilling (LWD) as wireline logging is not favourable from operational perspective. One of the key challenges of interpreting hydrocarbon saturation in PMCD operation is suppression of resistivity value due to sea-water invasion. Indeed, with PMCD, the well is appeared to have high water saturation even though 1 MHz phase shift 36" spacing deep phase resistivity is used in the interpretation. However, this is inconsistent with gas kick occurred at the top of carbonate or gas shows prior to conversion from conventional drilling to PMCD operation. Another observation of resistivity log response in PMCD drilling is that the phase shift resistivity from different sensor spacing (6", 12", 24" and 36", with smaller number indicate shallower depth of investigation, and higher number indicate deeper depth of investigation) appears to have separation, which indicates invasion profile which happens at one time-frame. Although 1D inversion for true resistivity (Rt) can be carried out with multiple sensor spacing phase resistivity and invasion diameter (Di) as inputs, the inversion result does not yield satisfactory result that match pre-PMCD resistivity value. The objective of the paper/ abstract is to highlight the benefits or running dual – resistivity in LWD bottom-hole assembly (BHA) in PMCD well to capture time-lapse resistivity measurement, estimate Rt which is time-dependant and pin-pointing gas-water contact in the exploration/ appraisal wells. This new proposed concept and methodology is still at its early stage, yet designed to make better decision during operational time. Such an approach will provide benefits to petrophysics community in the PMCD well interpretation with minimal incremental cost.

Advances in the fields of information technology, computation, and predictive analytics have permeated the energy industry and are reshaping methods for exploration, development, and production. These technologies can be applied to subsurface data to reliably predict a host of properties where only few are available. Among the numerous sources of subsurface data, rock and fluid analysis stand out as the means of directly measuring subsurface properties. The challenge in this work is to maximize information gain from legacy pdf reports and unstructured data tables that represented over 70 years of laboratory work and investment. The implication of modeling this data into an organized data store means better assessment of economic viability and producibility in frontier basins and the capability to identify bypassed pay in old wells that may not have rock material.

This paper presents innovative and agile technologies that integrate data management, data quality assessment, and predictive machine learning to maximize the company asset value using underutilized legacy core data. The developed machine learning algorithms identify potential outliers, benchmark the valuable data against current industry standards, increase the confidence in data quality and avoid amplifying error in predicting reservoir properties.

The workflow presented in the paper is expected to reduce uncertainties in subsurface studies caused by limited core data, improper analog selection, high cost, limited time for acquiring new cores, and long delivery times of core analysis data. The workflow reduces the requirement for subsurface formation evaluation rework as new data becomes available at later project stages resulting in optimized field development. The workflow enhanced by machine learning also improves the prediction and propagation of reservoir properties to uncored borehole sections.

In conclusion, managing legacy core data and transforming it to generate new subsurface insights are critical step to establish a reliable database in support of business excellence and the digitalization journey. Innovative machine learning tools continue to unlock new values from legacy core data that significantly impact the entire reservoir life cycle including reserves booking, production forecasting, well placement, and completion design.

A depleted gas field situated in offshore Sarawak has been identified by PETRONAS as a potential CO2 storage development site. As part of the monitoring program, CO2 seepage risk and impact on the marine environment needs to be investigated and predicted. This study focuses on understanding the environmental risks associated with the potential seepage of CO2 gas at the depleted field within the 140 m water column through methods of numerical modelling. Leakage scenarios involving existing plugged and abandoned (P&A) wells as CO2 leakage pathways were modelled with leakage rates of 6 tonnes/year, representing a realistic rate and 500 tonnes/year which represents a more improbable and conservative scenario. The modelling period covers three representative climatic periods for the prevailing monsoons in the South China Sea (northwest, southwest and inter-monsoon). Simulation results showed that with the lower rate, changes to the seawater acidity within the far field region were negligible or undetectable. Under the high seepage rate, the pH plume footprint was predicted to extend beyond 200 m distance from the source point. However, the probability was estimated to be less than 1% while the vertical extent of the plume was limited up to 2 m above the seabed. For both scenarios, the CO2 gas were predicted to be fully dissolved within 5 m above the seabed. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is relatively low risk of impact at the storage field in terms of potential increase in seawater acidity if CO2 seepage occurs during the storage period.

Methane Hydrates is an ice-like crystalline substance formed by methane and water under high pressure and low temperature environment. Each 1 unit methane hydrates contains about 170 units (converted in standard conditions) of methane gas. The low temperature and high pressure environment in deep water leads to the existence of hydrate layer in the shallow formation, which poses a significant challenge to cementing. The conventional cement slurry systems have limitations when applied in such well condition, since the heat of hydration during cement setting is high and there is a high risk of gas liberation from methane hydrates, easily causing severe well security issues. The low temperature environment, unconsolidated formation and narrow safety window also increased the complexity of the cementing jobs by a high performance requirement of the cement slurry. A low hydration heat cement slurry and an indoor cementing simulation evaluation method were developed in order to ensure effective isolation of the hydrate layer. This paper will describe in detail about the cement slurry development, performance and evaluation process in the lab with a novel method in the industry. This technology was proven as a solution for deep water hydrate layer well cementing, which is a great reference for cementing industry.
