API cement
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-000154
Cement formulations that conform to the specifications and testing standards established by the American Petroleum Institute (API) for oil and gas well cementing. These standards classify cements into different classes (e.g., Class A, G, H) based on their composition, strength, and performance under specific downhole conditions. API cement standards address properties such as thickening time, compressive strength, and fluid loss.
