Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A well construction method, and corresponding apparatus, in which a drilled bore (106) is lined with a plurality of successively smaller diameter sections of bore-lining tubing includes at least one casing (108, 110, 112) and at least one liner (120). The well construction method comprises: drilling a final section of a bore (106) to intersect a hydrocarbon-bearing formation (130); providing a shoe (134) at a distal end of a liner and a running tool (150) at a proximal end of the liner, and coupling an inner string (140) between the shoe (134) and the running tool (150); running the liner (120) into the final section of the bore (106) such that the liner extends into the hydrocarbon-bearing formation (130); pumping a settable material (116) from surface (104), through the inner string (140), and through the shoe (134) to at least partially fill an outer annulus (114) surrounding the liner (120); and retrieving the inner string (140) and the running tool (150).
