Although cement can be used as a grouting material, its typical application is as mortar and concrete, where it is combined with aggregate, an inert substance. Mortar is made by combining cement with sand or crushed stone that must be smaller than 5 mm (0.2 inch). Cement, sand, or another fine aggregate are mixed with a coarse aggregate that is typically up to 19 to 25 mm (0.75 to 1 inch) in size.
However, when concrete is deposited in massive masses, like dams, the coarse aggregate can be as large as 150 mm (6 inches). Mortars are used as surface treatments or to bind bricks, blocks, and stone together in constructions.
Kuwait has experienced a time of intense urban and industrial growth, hence the establishment of a cement factory on Kuwaiti soil was essential. In the past, only mud, plaster, marine rocks, and timber ceilings made up buildings. Other materials included papyrus, Gandal, and Bacillus. Kuwaitis didn’t learn about cement until 1912.
The Kuwait Cement market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
Oil Well Cement (OWC- Class G (HSR Grade)) from Kuwait Cement Company, is used in only wells for the production and development of oil and gas that are on land or offshore in deep sea water with a depth of 7000 feet utilise oil well cement (2100 metre). Additionally, it is utilised to dam and isolate geothermal power, garbage disposal, and water wells.
This particular form of cement serves the dual purposes of safeguarding well concealment from both liquid leaks and rock collapse. Ordinary (O), moderate sulphate resistant (MSR), and high sulphate resistant are the three categories for oil well cement (HSR).
