Some embodiments of the present invention comprise a method of cementing comprising: placing a settable composition into a well bore, the settable composition comprising RFA, hydraulic cement, and water; and allowing the settable composition to set. Other embodiments comprise a method of cementing comprising: placing a settable composition into a well bore, the settable composition comprising RFA, calcium hydroxide (lime), and water; and allowing the settable composition to set. Other embodiments comprise a settable composition comprising: RFA, hydraulic cement, calcium hydroxide, natural pozzolan and water; and allowing the composition to set. Other embodiments comprise a settable composition comprising RFA and any combination of hydraulic cement, calcium hydroxide, slag, fly ash, and natural or other pozzolan.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a preceding material for pumping, a feeding of a very small amount thereof being capable of extending the pumping distance. The preceding material for pumping includes an added cellulose nanofiber and having calcium carbonate as a main component. The present invention enables a thin lubricant layer of a uniform thickness to be formed inside a pipe even when the pipe has a slightly roughened inner surface due to, for example, residues of solidified cement paste or the like, allowing the pumping distance to be extended. Thus, the present invention is suitable, for example, for casting ready-mixed concrete at various construction sites.
