Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although there are many advantages in using liquefied LPG as a fracturing fluid, because LPG is in a gaseous state under normal conditions, the existing technology only provides a technology for liquefied fracturing operations under pressurized conditions. Due to limitations such as insufficient safety protection measures, conventional fracturing fluid preparation, experimental evaluation and other methods cannot meet the research needs of LPG fracturing fluids.

Abstract

The invention provides a butane-containing fracturing fluid and a preparation method thereof. The butane-containing fracturing fluid comprises the raw materials in parts by mass: 0.5 to 2 parts of a phosphate thickening agent, 0.1 to 1 part of a crosslinking agent and 100 parts of butane. The preparation method of the butane-containing fracturing fluid comprises the following steps: gaseous butane is placed in an environment of -10 DEG C to -30 DEG C, and the gaseous butane is changed into liquid butane; at the temperature of -10 DEG C to -30 DEG C, water solutions of the phosphate thickening agent and the cross-linking agent are added to the liquid butane and are stirred evenly, and an initial product of the butane-containing fracturing fluid is obtained; at the room temperature and in a pressure-resistance air tight container, the initial product of the butane-containing fracturing fluid is magnetically stirred for 10 min, and the butane-containing fracturing fluid is obtained. The butane-containing fracturing fluid can be prepared under the normal pressure, and has relatively good temperature resistance, shear resistance and sand carrying performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a butane-containing fracturing fluid and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of oil and gas field development in the field of petroleum exploitation. Background technique [0002] Water-based fracturing fluid has been used as the main fracturing fluid technology for nearly a hundred years. However, with the continuous development of ultra-low permeability reservoirs, especially unconventional reservoirs, water-based fracturing fluids often encounter water failure caused by phase traps. Phenomena such as retention and low flowback rate lead to problems such as rapid decline in production after fracturing and ineffective increase in production. At the same time, the contradiction between large-scale hydraulic fracturing and the current shortage of water resources has also led many people in the industry to consider non-hydraulic fracturing as a reconstruction technology. Alternatives to hydraulic fractu...
