Problems solved by technology

Relying on external factors to improve the self-supporting ability of materials is easy to cause poor controllability of the process due to complex underground factors and other reasons, and the pre-crosslinking effect is easily affected by high shear; the concept of thixotropy is emphasized in the development of inorganic thixotropic cement.
However, the thixotropic cement material itself has a strong gravity effect, the structural recovery speed is about several hundred seconds, and there are certain process risks. It still cannot meet the requirements in terms of thixotropy and process safety. Foreign indoor simulations can fill 90% of the annular space. for craft success

Abstract

The invention relates to an annular chemical packer material for the water plugging of a horizontal well, which comprises the following components in part by weight: 10 to 30 parts of thixotropy control agent, 0.1 to 10 parts of structure strengthening agent, 5 to 20 parts of strength controlling agent, 0.01 to 1 part of crosslinker assistant and 100 parts of water, wherein the thixotropy control agent is one or more of aluminum-iron mixed layer metal hydroxides, aluminum-magnesium mixed layer metal hydroxides and sodium-based imvite; the structure strengthening agent is one or more of dibromo-bis(dimethyldodecyl)ethyl diammonium and amide gemini quaternary ammonium surfactant; the strength control agent is the polymer of one or more of polyacrylamide, m-phenol and polyoxyethylene ether, which have double bond, methylene or phenyl functional groups; the crosslinker assistant consists of N-methylol acrylamide and a tert-butyl peroxide in a mass ratio of 1:0.1-5; and gelatinization is realized within 1 to 6 hours, and the gelatinization strength is improved by 100 to 1,000 times.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a material for water plugging in horizontal wells, which can form a high-strength impermeable chemical sealing slug in the horizontal annular space between the slotted screen pipe and the well wall, and act as an annular chemical packer (Annular Cement Packer). Background technique [0002] Horizontal wells have become an important technical means to speed up production capacity construction, improve oil recovery efficiency, and increase recoverable reserves in the development process of the petroleum industry. However, the problem of water production has seriously affected its overall development effect. Water cut wells are shut down, and the comprehensive water cut of horizontal wells put into production in Jidong Oilfield has reached over 95%. Jilin, Liaohe, and Dagang also have this problem to varying degrees. However, due to the special well structure and completion method of horizontal wells, the research on water plugg...
