ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides methods of cementing a well with a cementing composition utilizing a portion of the fluid used to drill the well as a component of the cementing composition. The methods basically comprise forming a cementing composition, consisting essentially of a cementing precursor composition and a set-activator introducing the cementing composition into the well and permitting the cementing composition to set into a hard mass therein; wherein the cementing precursor composition is the fluid used to drill the well.
