Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the field of pressure-filled temporary plugging in wells, due to the contradiction between the pressure-bearing capacity of gel slugs and gel-breaking performance, and the conditions that can be adjusted for environment-sensitive gels in wells are very limited, such as light, electricity, magnetism and Factors such as pH value cannot be effectively adjusted in the downhole environment
Therefore, the downhole self-breaking gel in the field of fracturing is not suitable for the field of temporary plugging under pressure in the well. At present, the concept of self-breaking gel has not been proposed in this field, and most of them adopt the method of physical gel breaking

Abstract

The invention provides a thermally degradable hydrogel for temporary plugging under pressure. The thermally degradable hydrogel for temporary plugging under pressure uses monomers, azo-type reducing agents and oxidants as raw materials, and the azo-type reducing agents are There are two different types of functional groups, one is the thermally degradable azo group, and the other is the functional group at both ends that is easy to react with the oxidant, and each of the two ends generates a free radical, which can be combined with Vinyl monomers are polymerized and linked into long polymer chains. In the present application, the unstable azo group is introduced into the long chain of the polymer by adopting redox method, so the unstable long chain polymer containing the azo group is prepared, and the gel material is endowed with high viscoelasticity (10 6 mPa.s) at the same time, making it thermally self-degradable, which can effectively realize the temporary plugging of the gel slug in the wellbore under pressure, and the temporary plugging time under pressure can reach up to 50h, and then gradually complete the degradation into a fluid state.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil under pressure operation, in particular to a thermal self-degradable temporary plugging hydrogel for under pressure operation. Background technique [0002] Pressurized operation is an operation method of tripping down the pipe string and downhole tools under the condition of wellhead pressure. It can realize downhole operation without changing the pressure in the well, which is very important for protecting reservoirs, improving water injection efficiency and oil and gas recovery. rate is significant. The plugging technology in the process of pressurization mainly includes mechanical plugging and chemical plugging in the wellbore. When the well wall is seriously polluted, a large amount of dead oil and dead wax are attached, or there are problems such as tubing scaling, corrosion perforation, long-section porous tubing strings or oil-water wells in tool strings, etc., when mechanical plugging cannot...
