Problems solved by technology

The process is greatly affected by the ambient temperature, and it cannot operate when it is lower than 20°C
At the same time, the liquid treated by this process needs to enter the downstream sewage treatment system to be mixed and diluted with other sewage for further treatment, and the treatment process is complicated.

Abstract

The invention provides a reutilization method and a treatment device for flow-back fracturing fluid, belonging to the technical field of cyclic utilization of fracturing fluid and energy saving and emission reduction in the process of oil and gas exploitation. The method comprises the following steps: allowing the flow-back fracturing fluid to flow back from a wellhead and to pass through a gas-liquid separation device for gas-liquid separation; allowing the obtained liquid to enter a sedimentation tank and carrying out desanding and deoiling; allowing the treated liquid to enter the flow-back fracturing fluid treatment device via a lift pump, carrying out on-line water treatment, and enabling the water quality of the treated liquid to meet the requirement of reutilization through process treatments like ultraviolet sterilization, chemical precipitation for removal of high-valence metal ions, and flocculation and centrifugation for removal of suspended matters; allowing the treated liquid to enter a fracturing fluid mixing tank; testing the water quality of the liquid and analyzing the concentration of residual additives; supplementing lost additives; testing the properties of the fracturing fluid; and carrying out fracturing operation. According to the invention, treatment effect is good; when the treated flow-back fracturing fluid is reutilized, the requirement of fracturing operation is met; thus, the cyclic utilization of the fracturing fluid and energy saving and emission reduction are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a treatment device for reusing fracturing flowback fluid, and belongs to the technical field of fracturing fluid recycling and energy saving and emission reduction in the oil and gas development process. Background technique [0002] After the oil and gas well fracturing operation is completed, the fracturing fluid pumped into the formation will flow back to the surface. This type of fluid is commonly referred to as frac flowback fluid. Fracturing flowback fluid contains a large amount of additives, formation ions, some mechanical impurities and oil, etc. Direct discharge will seriously pollute the environment, and the technology of harmless treatment is difficult and costly. At present, the treatment methods of fracturing flowback fluid are mainly three ways: reinjection, discharge after treatment, and reuse after treatment. Among them, reinjection needs to drill reinjection wells in suitable formations and inst...
