A method of reducing corrosion in tubular strings installed in wellbores includes dispensing an accelerated cement composition into a wellbore annulus, a casing-casing annulus, or both, the accelerated cement composition comprising a cement composition and an accelerant composition, where: the cement composition comprises a cement precursor and water; the accelerant composition comprises triethanolamine; and a concentration of the triethanolamine in the accelerated cement composition is greater than or equal to 10,000 parts per million by weight; allowing the accelerated cement composition to cure in the annulus to form a cured cement, where the triethanolamine reacts with a metal of the tubular string, the reaction forming a protective layer on the surfaces of the tubular string that inhibits dissolution of iron from the metal of the tubular string.

Disclosed herein is a liquid salt activator comprising a salt, a suspending aid, and water, wherein the salt is present in the liquid salt activator in an amount of from about 5 wt. % to about 95 wt. %, based on the total weight of the liquid salt activator. Also disclosed herein is an activated extended life slurry (ELS) composition comprising a hydraulic cement, a supplementary cementitious material, the liquid salt activator, and an aqueous fluid. The activated ELS composition can be used in a method of servicing a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation.

A method for preparing an accelerator for sprayed mortar/concrete is provided. The accelerator includes an organic component, inorganic component aluminum sulfate, an initiator, and a reductant. The organic component in the form of a polymer monomer is added to concrete and polymerized into a polymer network structure in the presence of the initiator and the reductant; and the inorganic component aluminum sulfate promotes rapid hydration of the concrete to form an inorganic network structure. Such organic-inorganic interpenetrating network thickens a cement-based material rapidly to achieve strong adhesion, fast-setting and hardening properties and effectively reduces resilience of the sprayed mortar/concrete. The accelerator prepared by the method is well compatible with all sorts of cement, efficient and environmentally friendly. The organic-inorganic interpenetrating network is formed by polymerization and cement hydration, and therefore, the toughness of the sprayed mortar/concrete is improved by the organic polymer-inorganic compound accelerator.
