Abstract

The invention relates to soilless potassium formate water-based drilling fluid for drilling shale which is used in long horizontal shale sections with developing microcracks. The soilless potassium formate water-based drilling fluid can inhibit the hydration collapse of shale formations, seal the nano-micropores and nano-microcracks of shale and solve the problem of stabilizing well walls. The technical solvent is that the materials for preparing the drilling fluid and contents (mass unit: gram) thereof are as follows: 12g to 18g of xanthan gum as a shear strength-improving agent; 4g to 8g of tackifier 80A-51; 350g to 400g of potassium formate; 8g to 12g of filtrate reducer CG810S-P; 0.3g to 0.6g of calcium oxide; 40g to 60g of calcium carbonate; 10g to 30g of lubricant R-16; 40g to 60g of polyethylene glycol; 25g to 35g of emulsified paraffin; 5g to 15g of nano calcium carbonate; 900g to 1200g of tap water; a sodium hydroxide solvent with the concentration of 40 percent. The tap water is first weighed and added with the xanthan gum while agitated under 500r / min, the treatment agents, such as the 80A-51, the potassium formate, the CG810S-P, the CaO, the CaCO3 and the R-16, are then sequentially added, the pH of the system is then regulated to 8.5, and thereby the drilling fluid is produced. The environment pollution of a drilling fluid system is little, and the drilling fluid system has good rheological property and strong inhibiting and sealing capabilities, and can be used in shale drilling.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a soilless potassium formate water-based drilling fluid for drilling shale, which has strong effects of inhibiting hydration dispersion and plugging, and is particularly suitable for drilling long horizontal well sections of shale with micro-fractures. Background technique [0002] According to the characteristics of shale gas accumulation, the development of shale gas is mainly based on shallow extended-reach wells and cluster horizontal wells. Due to the well-developed fractures and strong water sensitivity in shale formations, not only lost circulation, collapse, diameter shrinkage and other problems are prone to occur in long horizontal section drilling, but also friction, rock carrying and formation Pollution and other issues, thus increasing the probability of downhole complex situations. Therefore, in the drilling of shale gas horizontal wells, it becomes the key to the selection and design of drilling fluids to solve t...
