A carbonation-resistant cementitious blend containing cement, an expandable agent present, a dispersion agent, a fluid loss additive, a defoamer, and an olive waste. Concrete samples made therefrom and methods of producing such concrete samples are also specified. The addition of olive waste provides enhanced durability (carbonation resistance) and maintains mechanical strength (e.g. compressive strength, tensile strength) after exposure to CO.sub.2 and/or brine. The resulting concretes are suitable cementing material for oil and gas wells as well as wellbores for geologic carbon sequestration.

A cement composition can include water; cement, wherein less than 75 w/w % of the total amount of the cement is Portland cement; and a fluid loss additive, wherein the fluid loss additive comprises a polymer network having at least one branching point formed with a monomer and a cross-linking agent that comprises at least three active functional groups. The cement can also be a non-Portland cement. The monomer can be a vinyl ester-based monomer that is polymerized with the cross-linking agent to form the polymer network. The cement composition can be used in an oil and gas operation.

The present disclosure discloses a method of forming self-curing concrete comprising the steps of mixing cement, aggregates, and dry MIL-101(Cr) metal-organic framework (MOF) to form a mixture, incorporating the mixture with water to form wet concrete; and curing the wet concrete. During the curing step, the MIL-101(Cr) MOF adsorbs water to from a surrounding atmosphere. The MIL-101(Cr) MOF is 3-9 wt. % relative to the cement, such that water adsorption by the MIL-101(Cr) MOF enables the wet concrete to self-cure. The present disclosure also discloses a composition for forming concrete, the composition compromising cement, aggregate, water, and MIL-101(Cr) metal-organic framework (MOF), wherein the MIL-101(Cr) is 3-9 wt. % relative to the cement. The present disclosure also discloses a self-curing concrete.

A self-healing cement structure may be used for repairing defects. An example method of using such a cement structure includes: providing a cement structure in a wellbore, wherein the cement structure includes: a cement and elastomer particles at 1% by weight of the cement (bwoc) to 25% bwoc; applying heat to the cement structure to heat at least a portion of the elastomer particles above a melting point of an elastomer of the elastomer particles to cause at least a portion of the elastomer to melt and infiltrate into a defect in the cement structure; and allowing the elastomer to cool below the melting point of the elastomer to yield a repaired cement structure.
