preparation example Construction

[0046] The preparation method of this organic zirconium crosslinking agent comprises the steps:

[0047] 1) Warm up deionized water to 50-90°C, add zirconium trichloride, sodium chloride, and ammonium chloride in sequence, and stir at a speed of 20-40 rpm to obtain transparent liquid A;

[0048] 2) Add ethylene glycol into the transparent liquid A and stir at a speed of 20-40 rpm to obtain the transparent liquid B;

[0049] 3) Add lactic acid to the transparent liquid B to react, and drop lye to adjust the pH value to 4-8;

[0050] 4) React at constant temperature for 45min-480min to obtain a colorless and transparent organic zirconium crosslinking agent.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preventing proppants in water-base fracturing fluid from settling in a transfer process. By enhancing the strength of a spatial network structure, the spatial network structure cannot be destroyed in a proppant transfer process, and the proppants always maintain a suspension state instead of settling in the fluid. Technical measures for enhancing the strength of the spatial network structure are as follows: crosslinking agents are used for being crosslinked with polyacrylamide polymers, wherein the crosslinking agents comprise a crosslinking agent A and a crosslinking agent B, the crosslinking agent A is an organic zirconium crosslinking agent, and the crosslinking agent B is a conventional crosslinking agent; the crosslinking agent B and the polyacrylamide polymers are subjected to physical crosslinking, and surfactant hydrophobic groups in the crosslinking agent B and hydrophobic groups in the polymers are subjected to a hydrophobic effect, so that the strength of the system spatial network structure is enhanced; the crosslinking agent A and the polyacrylamide polymers are subjected to chemical crosslinking, organic zirconium is subjected to hydration, hydrolysis and olation in a solution, and mutinuclear olation complex ions are formed and crosslinked with amide groups in the polymers, accordingly, the strength of the spatial network structure is further enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to oil and gas well formation fracture fracturing fluid, specifically, a method for preventing proppant in water-based fracturing fluid from settling during transportation. Background technique [0002] Hydraulic fracturing requires the use of special fluids, the purpose of which is to produce a suitable fracture size while transporting the proppant. The key to the fracturing fluid is to carry the proppant from the wellbore through the perforation to the designated position at the front of the fracture. Therefore, the fracturing fluid The ability to carry proppant is its basic requirement. It is very complicated to affect the proppant delivery capacity of fracturing fluid. Viscosity, flow rate, proppant concentration and density, etc., all affect the settling velocity of proppant. Most fracturing fluids are non-Newtonian fluids, and the viscosity of the liquid decreases with the increase of the shear rate, while the general polym...
