Benefits of technology

This technology allows for better control over acidifying treatments during drilling operations while also reducing environmental impact compared with traditional methods like bullseye or nitrogen gas flooding techniques. It achieves this through multiple stages of treatment that involve different types of fluids such as oils, acids, proppants, etc., along with various tools used on top of them.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed in this patents relates to studying methods used during drilling operations when treatments aimed towards reducing flow restrictions can cause damage to oil producing formations such as shale gas deposits that have been developed through hydrocracking processes. These treatment techniques involve injecting acids into specific areas within the hydrocarbon bearing rock layers near fault zones where there may be significant amounts of unconventional resources like bitumen from which crude oil cannot easily escape without being forced downhole. However, these conventional ways require high pump pressures and long periods before they work effectively. Existing solutions involving chemical agents also suffer issues related to their effectiveness over longer times.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of segmented acidification of horizontal wells of oil fields, and in particular relates to a segmented acidifying method for a low-pressure blocking horizontal well of an ultra-low permeability oil deposit. For the blocking horizontal well, the holding level of formation pressure kept smaller than 80%, with a five-point or seven-point area well patternof the horizontal well of the ultra-low permeability oil deposit, immovable strings of the horizontal well are segmentally acidified by combining a K344 packer, a sliding sleeve ejector, a sliding sleeve ball seat and the like by adopting multi-stage sliding sleeve acidifying strings. A displacement fracturing fluid is injected to a segment without a corresponding water injection well to supplement stratum energy during segmented acidification, and blowout for backflushing and production restoration are carried out in 1-2 days after closing the well and diffusing after acidification. The segmented acidification and energy supplementation of the horizontal well are integrated to achieve a purpose of same layer displacement, so that a segmented acidifying effect of the horizontal well is further improved.
