Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the research and development of foaming agents mainly focus on the synthesis or compounding of surfactants. However, due to the influence of the nature of surfactants, although sufficient foaming volume can be generated, their stability is poor.
In order to increase the stability of...

Abstract

The invention relates to a nanoparticle-added composite foam system used for an oil and gas field and a preparation method thereof. The composite foam system comprises components of, by mass, 0.3 to 0.5 parts of an anionic surfactant, 1 to 1.5 parts of modified silica nanoparticles, 0.03 to 2.3 parts of counter-ion salt, and 100 parts of water. The method comprises mixing the abovementioned components according to ratio, stirring by using a magnetic stirrer, standing, and then rapidly stirring to form well stable foam using a Waring Blender way. According to the composite foam system, the produced foam has a longer half life than that of foam stabilized by ordinary surfactant, and a larger start-foaming volume than that generated by adding a foam stabilizer The system has advantages of simple formula and preparation technology and good salt tolerance and temperature tolerance, can adapt to complex oil reservoir condition underground, does not pollute stratum, is capable of effectively blocking large channels and improving sweeping efficiency, and thus has good application prospects in oil field exploitation, especially in foam displacement.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a composite foam system added with nanoparticles for oil and gas fields and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of oil and gas field development and production engineering. Background technique [0002] At present, foam fluid has shown great application potential in various aspects of drilling, oil and gas well stimulation, workover, and enhanced oil recovery in the petroleum industry. Foam fluid generally refers to the dispersion system formed by insoluble or slightly soluble gas dispersion and liquid. Since the gas is surrounded by a liquid film, it determines that the foam has low friction, low density, low filtration loss, and damage to the formation. The foam has the advantages of being small, and the foam has a sealing effect on the high-permeability layer, and has the effect of increasing the swept volume on the low-permeability layer. Therefore, the foaming ability and half-life of foam are v...
