Problems solved by technology

There are currently some problems in the three processing methods: (1) It is difficult and costly to meet the standards for efflux
Due to the complex composition of the fracturing flowback fluid, the COD is as high as tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of mg/L, while the discharge environment requires that the COD is usually lower than 60 mg/L, resulting in complicated treatment processes and a cost of up to 200 yuan/m3; (2) Reinjection Treatment Affects the Stable Operation of Water Injection System
The reinjection treatment of fracturing flowback fluid is usually to oxidize and break the fracturing flowback fluid, and then enter the combined station for treatment together with the oil production sewage. Since the flowback fluid still contains a large amount of polymer substances, it will not only affect the efficienc

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of tertiary oil recovery, and in particular, relates to a method for improving a crude oil recovery ratio by using guanidine gum fracturing backflow liquid. The method specifically comprises the following steps that pH of the fracturing backflow liquid is adjusted to 6.5-7.5; then, suspension impurities with particle sizes not less than 50 microns are removed through two-grade filtration; the content of guanidine gum in the fracturing backflow liquid is adjusted to reach the mass concentration of 1.0-1.5%; a nitrogen source and a phosphorus source are synchronously added; the mass concentrations of the nitrogen source and the phosphorus source are respectively 0.2-0.5% and 0.1-0.3% after adding; the fracturing backflow liquid added with the nitrogen source and the phosphorous source is injected in an oil reservoir from a water injection well; and injection allocation of air is performed. The method has the characteristics of simple flows, mature processing unit process, stable whole process and low cost, can realize the reinjection of the fracturing backflow liquid into the oil reservoir, realizes the resource utilization of sewage, and can be widely applied to field tests of improving the crude oil recovery ratio by microorganisms.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tertiary oil recovery, and in particular relates to a method for improving oil recovery by using guar gum type fracturing flowback fluid. Background technique [0002] At present, unconventional oil and gas reservoirs such as tight oil and gas are being vigorously developed, and large-scale hydraulic fracturing is the main development method. Large-scale hydraulic fracturing will produce a large amount of flowback fluid, and the flowback fluid volume of a single unconventional well can reach more than 2,000 cubic meters. More than 90% of the currently used fracturing fluid system is guar gum fracturing fluid. The flowback fluid not only contains a large amount of crude oil and suspended impurities, but also contains a large amount of guar gum residual liquid. The composition is complex, the COD is high, and the treatment is difficult. Important issues affecting the development of unconventional oil and g...
