The present disclosure provides a modified montmorillonite self-repairing agent and a preparation method and use thereof, and belongs to the technical field of cement repairing materials. Montmorillonite is mixed with water, such that water is fully adsorbed between montmorillonite layers. The structure of montmorillonite is modified by supercritical CO.sub.2 treatment at a temperature of 50-60° C. and a pressure of 8-12 MPa, and the self-repairing efficiency of cement is improved by adding the modified montmorillonite into cement. Supercritical CO.sub.2 is adsorbed by montmorillonite, such that the montmorillonite is activated and an interlayer distance is increased to improve the repairing efficiency. When a crack is formed in cement, the adsorbed supercritical CO.sub.2 in montmorillonite is released into the crack and combined with positive ions to generate carbonate deposition, such that the crack is sealed and the self-repairing activity of the cement is improved. Results of examples show that carbonate microcrystals are generated in the modified montmorillonite self-repairing agent provided by the present disclosure. The generated carbonate microcrystals serve as “active sites” that induce additional carbonate precipitation, which is beneficial for crack sealing.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for preparing a concrete mixture. One of the methods includes controlling an ingredient metering system to measure and add a plurality of ingredients to a concrete mixture, measuring characteristics of at least one ingredient of the ingredients using a particle analyzer, determining an estimated rheometry measurement of for the concrete mixture, obtaining an actual rheometry measurement of the concrete mixture, and selectively controlling the ingredient metering system to add one or more additional ingredients to the concrete mixture based on a comparison of the estimated rheometry measurement with the actual rheometry measurement.

A method of using a gas control additive to provide gas migration control in a wellbore includes the steps of mixing the gas control additive with a cement to form a cement slurry, where the gas control additive includes a semi-permeable membrane and a scrubbing agent, such that the semi-permeable membrane forms a shell around a core such that the scrubbing agent is in the core, introducing the cement slurry to the wellbore, and reacting the scrubbing agent with an antagonistic gas to produce a helper byproduct, where the antagonistic gas migrates from a hydrocarbon-bearing formation into the wellbore and permeates through the semi-permeable membrane to the core of the gas control additive.
