1. The Plug and Abandonment problem (P&A) -- 2. Conventional Technologies for P&A -- 3. Thermal Methods for P&A -- 4. Experimental Work -- 5. Mathematical Modelling of Aluminothermic Reactions.

This book evaluates a new potential game-change technology where burning a compound known as "thermite" is used to melt the casing, cement and rock forming an impermeable plug within the wellbore. A review on current and emerging technologies is presented. The development of analytical, numerical and experimental tools is documented in separate sections of the book, showing results and discussing the potential for this new technology and its role on the ongoing energy transition process worldwide.
