Abstract
Methods of using cement compositions that comprise basalt fibers in subterranean formations are provided. An example of such a method may comprise providing a cement composition that comprises water, a hydraulic cement, and a plurality of basalt fibers; introducing the cement composition into a subterranean formation; allowing the cement composition to set therein. Also provided are methods of cementing a pipe string in a well bore and methods of enhancing the compressive strength of a cement composition.

A method of cementing, comprising:
- providing a cement composition that comprises water, a hydraulic cement, and a plurality of basalt fibers;
- introducing the cement composition into a subterranean formation;
- and
- allowing the cement composition to set therein.
A method of cementing a pipe string in a well bore, comprising:
- providing a cement composition that comprises water, a hydraulic cement, and a plurality of basalt fibers;
- introducing the cement composition into an annulus between at least one wall of the well bore and the pipe string disposed within the well bore;
- and
- allowing the cement composition to set therein.
A method of enhancing the compressive strength of a cement composition, comprising:
- adding a plurality of basalt fibers to the cement composition, wherein the cement composition comprises water and a hydraulic cement;
- introducing the cementing composition into a subterranean formation;
- and
- allowing the cement composition to set therein.
