Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the existing resin-coated proppants also have the following defects: 1. The phenolic resin coating is brittle. Compared with epoxy resin and silicone resin, the phenolic resin coating has a higher breakage rate under the same closing pressure. Multi-layer resin coating or increasing the amount of resin to improve the compressive strength will increase the thickness of the resin mold accordingly, thereby affecting the conductivity; 2. Due to the very complicated downhole environment, the surface of the proppant coated with ordinary phenolic resin will be affected. The erosion of oil, gas, water, salt water, steam, acid-base corrosion liquid, microorganisms, etc. in the rock formation will cause corrosion, degradation, and shedding of the coating layer, which will greatly reduce the conductivity of the rock formation cracks; 3. Use epoxy resin , silicone resin and other resin-coated proppants, the cost of raw materials and processes is relatively high; 4, the existing resin-coated proppant volume density (proppant mass per unit bulk volume) and apparent density (proppant mass per unit particle volume) The quality of proppant) is relatively high, resulting in the resin-coated proppant can only be transported for a short distance in the fracture, and the laying process is not uniform, and the settlement is fast, which reduces the oil and gas recovery, especially when it is used in the fracturing development of shale gas. The decline in oil and gas production is most pronounced

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of fracturing mining of petroleum, natural gas and shale gas, in particular to an ultra-light film-coated proppant. The ultra-light film-coated proppant comprises aggregate, special resin, a curing agent, an accelerant and a dispersing agent, and the special resin includes resin and subnanometer inorganic materials. The invention further discloses a preparation method of the ultra-light film-coated proppant. The preparation method includes: 1), heating the aggregate into 130-350 DEG C; 2), adding the special resin to enable the special resin to be evenly stirred and coated with the aggregate, and then adding the curing agent and the accelerant for even stirring for curing; 3), adding the dispersing agent with even stirring till the material is dispersed into single particles; 4), performing cooling, crushing and sieving to obtain the film-coated proppant. The film-coated proppant obtained is small in volume density and apparent density, capable of being delivered remotely, uniform in pavement and favorable for improving oil and gas mining quantity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil, natural gas and shale gas fracturing, in particular to an ultra-light film-coated proppant and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Hydraulic fracturing is the use of surface high-pressure pumps to squeeze fracturing fluid with high viscosity into the oil layer through the wellbore. When the rate of injection of fracturing fluid exceeds the absorption capacity of the oil layer, a very high pressure will be formed on the oil layer at the bottom of the well. When this pressure exceeds the fracture pressure of the oil layer near the bottom of the well, the oil layer will be pushed open and fractures will be generated. At this time, if the fracturing fluid is continuously squeezed into the oil layer, the fracture will continue to expand into the oil layer. In order to keep the fractures opened, the sand-carrying fluid with proppant particles is squeezed into the oil layer. After t...
