Problems solved by technology

Its disadvantage is that the wax removal and control system only has one kind of wax control bacteria, and the optimum growth temperature is 37°C, which cannot adapt to the temperature change from the wellhead to the bottom of the well, which affects the wax removal and control effect

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of oilfield development, and particularly relates to a microbial paraffin removal and inhibition method for a paraffin-containing oil well. The method specifically comprises the following steps of screening a test oil well; determining temperature ranges of low-temperature, medium-temperature and high-temperature strains; screening the low-temperature,medium-temperature and high-temperature strains; determining the compounding performance of the low-temperature, medium-temperature and high-temperature strains; determining the on-site adding proportion, the on-site total adding amount and the on-site adding period of compounding strains; and performing field testing and effect evaluation. The microbial paraffin removal and inhibition method hasthe advantages of being simple in process, high in operability and good in field test effect, the thermal washing period is effectively prolonged by 200 d or above, the thermal washing times of one single well are averagely saved by 5 times or above every year, and the input-output ratio is larger than 1:5. Therefore, the method can be widely applied to paraffin removal and inhibition operation ofthe high-paraffin-content oil well.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oilfield development, and in particular relates to a method for removing and preventing wax by microbes in waxy oil wells. Background technique [0002] During oil production, as the wellbore temperature and pressure drop, the waxy components in crude oil will precipitate, grow and deposit in the tubing, which will lead to wax formation in the oil well and seriously affect the normal production of the oil well. Therefore, effective measures must be taken to control oil well wax deposition. [0003] At present, the methods for controlling wax deposition in oil wells mainly include physical methods, chemical methods, and microbial wax removal and prevention methods. However, the physical method has the disadvantages of high cost and great damage to the oil pipe; the chemical method (mainly including chemical wax remover and chemical wax inhibitor) has the disadvantages of large dosage, high cost, and poor ...
