Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of oilfield chemistry, and particularly relates to a microbial paraffin removing and preventing method for a high wax content oil well. The microbial paraffin removing and preventing method comprises the following steps that screening of a test oil well is conducted; optimization of microbial paraffin removing and preventing bacteria is conducted; the dilution capacity of the microbial paraffin removing and preventing bacteria is evaluated; field dosage is determined; the dosing timing is determined; and the field test and the effect are evaluated. According to the microbial paraffin removing and preventing method for the high wax content oil well, scientific basis is provided for determination of the bacteria adding amount and the bacteria adding timing of the test oil well; and meanwhile the method has the characteristics that the application range of an oil deposit is wide, the technology is simple, the operability is high, and the field testing effect is good, the hot washing period is effectively prolonged by over 200 d, and over five times of well hot washing of a single well are saved every year. In this way, the method can be widely applied to paraffin removing and preventing operation for the high wax content oil well.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oilfield chemistry, and in particular relates to a method for removing and preventing wax by microorganisms in high-wax oil wells. Background technique [0002] In the process of crude oil extraction, with the decrease of temperature and the precipitation of gas, paraffin will precipitate, grow up, gather and deposit on the pipe wall in the form of crystals, that is, wax deposition occurs. Wax deposits on tubing, sucker rods and pumps increase the load of pumping units, reduce pump efficiency, reduce production, reduce productivity, and even cause oil wells to stop production. The oil well maintenance operations caused by severe waxing account for a large proportion, and the workover costs increase. At the same time, the waxing of the sucker rod causes the long-term overload operation of the sucker rod, which also affects the effective service life of the sucker rod. Mechanical wax removal, oil well ther...
