Drilling Fluid Treatment Method for Blocks in High Salt Gypsum Formation

Abstract

The invention provides a treating method of drilling fluid used for a high salt-gypsum content formation block. Drilling is conducted by means of fresh water polymer drilling fluid. The treating method comprises the following steps that (1) the fresh water polymer drilling fluid is utilized for dissolving salt in a formation, and the chlorine ion content of the formation is kept at 50,000-70,000 mg / L in an under-saturated state; (2) a PH value conditioning agent is added into the drilled salt-gypsum formation, so that the PH value of the drilling fluid is kept at 9-10; (3) PSC is added into the drilled salt-gypsum formation to control the viscosity at 30-45 s; (4) while the salt-gypsum formation is drilled, the density of the drilling fluid is kept at 1.17-1.22 g / cm<3>; (5) while the salt-gypsum formation is drilled, the content of bentonite is kept at 40-50 g / L; and (6) an anti-sloughing filtrate reducer is added, and the mass content of the anti-sloughing filtrate reducer is kept at 0.4-0.5%. The low-viscous-shearing and high-water-loss drilling fluid is adopted for drilling the salt-gypsum formation, so that the mechanical drilling speed can be increased; furthermore, the adding amount of the anti-sloughing filtrate reducer is decreased; and the drilling fluid has good fluidity, the scouring capability of the drilling fluid to the well wall is enhanced, a certain expanded diameter of a well is formed, and the phenomenon that drilling slacking-off is caused by creeping and diameter-reducing of the salt-gypsum formation is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of drilling fluid treatment, and in particular relates to a treatment method for drilling fluid used in high-salt gypsum layer blocks. Background technique [0002] Salt-gypsum formations are formations mainly composed of salt or gypsum, and are often encountered during drilling. For example, the Tertiary formations in the construction wells of Shenquan, Shengnan, and Yanmuxi blocks in the west of Tuha Oilfield contain a large amount of Salt gypsum, pure salt layer, gypsum mudstone layer. When drilling in the salt-gypsum layer, the conventional drilling fluid is seriously polluted. The salt-gypsum invasion makes the drilling fluid thicken sharply, and the gypsum mudstone absorbs water and expands or plastically deforms, resulting in diameter shrinkage and well collapse. Downhole complex situations such as serious blockage or stuck pipe accidents, blockage in electrical testing, and pump holding down in cementing occu...

Problems solved by technology

When drilling in the salt-gypsum layer, the conventional drilling fluid is seriously polluted. The salt-gypsum invasion makes the drilling fluid thicken sharply, and the gypsum mudstone absorbs water and expands or plastically deforms, resulting in diameter shrinkage and well collapse. Underground complex situations such as severe jamming or pipe stuck accidents, resistance in electrical testing, cementing pump failure, etc.
