Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, at present, temporary plugging agents containing gel breaker components are most commonly used to temporarily block formations. Temporary plugging agents can effectively block medium and low permeability layers, but they are not strong enough to form effective plugging in high permeability layers. , before the temporary plugging agent breaks the gel, quickly squeeze the jelly water plugging and profile control agent solution into the high permeability layer. Under the formation temperature, after a period of time, the temporary plugging agent in the medium and low permeability layer will be liquefied into an aqueous solution The plugging effect is lost, and the jelly water plugging and profile control agent solution in the high-permeability layer becomes gel, which becomes a high-strength plugging agent to block the high-permeability layer
However, due to the contradictory properties of the temporary plugging agent and its gel-breaking properties, it is difficult to control, and the actual site is very complicated. The gel breaks when it should not be broken, and the gel does not break when it should be broken.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of water plugging and profile control, and specifically relates to a method for water plugging and profile control of oil and water wells. Background technique [0002] At present, some old sandstone reservoirs in eastern my country have water content of more than 90%. High water cut has brought many hazards to the development and production of oilfields, forcing oilfields to adopt technologies such as oil well water shutoff or water injection well profile control to reduce water and increase oil or control water to stabilize oil. In water plugging or profile control operations, among many plugging agents, the most commonly used is the gel plugging agent. The gel plugging agent mainly includes chromium jelly and phenolic jelly. The plugging agent solution is injected by the general injection method. In the formation, it is difficult to ensure that the plugging agent selectively enters the high permeability layer...
