Problems solved by technology

However, this type of clay stabilizer has a large molecular weight. Although it can achieve the purpose of anti-swelling and stability, it will cause great damage to low-permeability reservoirs and block pore throats.
In addition, when the clay stabilizer with a large molecular weight is mixed with the oilfield reinjection sewage containing HPAM (polyacrylamide), the HPAM in the oilfield reinjection sewage is precipitated, causing the injection water to be turbid, reducing the quality of the injection water, and also causing a rise in water injection pressure. Problems such as high water wells and insufficient injection of water wells

Abstract

The invention discloses a clay stabilizing agent suitable for low-permeability oil pool, which comprises the following materials in percentage by weight: 0.8-98% of (2-hydroxyethyl)trimethylammonium chloride, 0-20% of inorganic salt containing ammonium or potassium ions, and the balance of tap water or oil field return water. The clay stabilizing agent effectively prevents the clay from swelling, can achieve the anti-swelling rate more than 90 percent, has good compatibility with HPAM-containing oil field return water without generating floccules and low damage rate of an oil field and is suitable for the low-permeability oil pool developed by infusing the HPAM-containing oil field return water.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a clay stabilizer used in clay-containing low-permeability oil reservoirs. Background technique: [0002] Low permeability reservoirs during oilfield development, often containing clay minerals, are water sensitive. Among them, clay minerals expand, disperse, migrate, and block pore throats, which greatly reduces the original low permeability, which not only affects the productivity of oil wells, but also has a very bad and irreversible impact on the later development of oil fields. [0003] Injecting clay stabilizers is an effective method to protect water-sensitive reservoirs. The cationic polymer clay stabilizer widely used in oil fields in recent years has high positive charge density, less dosage and long-lasting effect. However, this kind of clay stabilizer has a large molecular weight. Although it can achieve the purpose of anti-swelling and stabilization, it will cause great damage to low-permeability reservoirs and ...
