Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas field exploitation, and specifically relates to an all-fiber composite oil displacement composition and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] At present, most of my country's old oil fields have entered a period of high water content and rapid decline in production. Due to the difficulty in improving the flow ratio and reservoir heterogeneity in secondary oil recovery, crude oil is bound by capillary force or bypass, resulting in low sweep efficiency, so that the crude oil remaining in the pore cannot be displaced. Tertiary oil recovery technology solves the main problems such as low sweep efficiency and difficulty in changing rock formation wettability, and can effectively improve the displacement effect, thereby increasing crude oil recovery.

[0003] CN114456332A discloses a nanoparticle-modified polymer and its preparation method and application. The polymer comprises an acrylamide structural unit shown in formula (I), a vinyl-modified nanoparticle structural unit shown in formula (II) and an N-alkyl acrylamide structural unit shown in formula (III): the polymer has a certain ability to increase viscosity in the water phase, reduce interfacial tension and thus emulsify crude oil, and solves the problems of other general oil recovery polymers that are insufficient in viscosity, difficult to effectively establish underground seepage resistance, and weak interaction with crude oil molecules, and is suitable for tertiary oil recovery in heavy oil reservoirs in onshore oil fields.

[0004] CN114479807A discloses an organic nanoparticle / surfactant composite wetting agent and a preparation method thereof, wherein the wetting agent is a composite of organic nanoparticles and surfactants, and the organic nanoparticles are self-polymerized particles of catecholamine compounds. The invention obtains a composite through the interaction between multiple sites on the surface of organic nanoparticles and surfactants, and its dispersion can improve the hydrophilicity of the core and the wetting performance of the oil reservoir at a low concentration, and has important application value in tertiary oil recovery.

[0005] However, most of the nanoparticles currently used for nano-oil flooding have complicated synthesis steps and involve the use of hazardous reagents, which can easily cause a great burden on the environment and human body. Based on this, it is necessary to develop a green nanomaterial with a wide source and simple preparation method for oil development. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a full-fiber composite oil-displacing composition and a preparation method and application thereof. The composition enhances the emulsification ability of the nano-composite oil-displacing system by introducing nanoparticles, thereby achieving efficient oil washing and emulsification expansion, thereby improving the recovery rate, which is of great significance for the efficient development of medium and low permeability oil reservoirs.

[0007] In order to achieve the purpose of the invention, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a full-fiber composite oil displacement composition, wherein the components of the full-fiber composite oil displacement composition include, by mass percentage:

[0009] Nanocellulose 0.01wt%-0.1wt%, cellulose derivative 0.05wt%-0.5wt% and water 90wt%-99.9wt%.

[0010] Nanoparticle flooding is an emerging chemical flooding technology. It has a large specific surface area and surface energy. By adsorbing on the oil-water cross section, it greatly reduces the oil-water interfacial tension, making it easy for crude oil to peel off into small oil droplets and be displaced by the displacement fluid. On the other hand, nanoparticles have a certain temporary blocking effect on small pores, thereby expanding the swept volume and thus improving the recovery rate, which is of great significance for the continued development of some low-permeability oil fields.

[0011] The full-fiber composite oil-displacing composition obtained by combining nanocellulose and cellulose derivatives in the present invention has amphiphilicity, high specific area and excellent mechanical properties. It can be adsorbed on the oil-water interface with crude oil through hydrogen bonds, CH2-π interactions, etc., forming a three-dimensional barrier at the oil-water interface to hinder droplet aggregation, thereby stabilizing the emulsion state, increasing crude oil viscosity, and improving recovery.

[0025] Preferably, the mass ratio of chitosan, sodium alginate and hydroxypropyl cellulose is (0.5-1):(0.5-1):(1-3).

[0070] Comparative Example 1

[0074] Test Example 1

[0075] The viscosity and stability of the emulsions formed by the full-fiber composite oil-displacing compositions of Examples 1-8 and the oil-displacing agents of Comparative Examples 1-2 and crude oil were tested.

[0076] The samples of Examples 1-8 and Comparative Example 12 were placed in beakers with crude oil (Changqing Oilfield crude oil) at a volume ratio of 1:9, 2:8, 3:7, 4:6, 5:5, 6:4, 7:3, 8:2, and 9:1, respectively, kept at 55°C for 1 hour, dispersed with an IKA homogenizer for 1 minute, the emulsification was observed, and the apparent viscosity of the emulsion was tested with a rheometer.

[0077] Table 1

[0078]

[0079]

[0080] Table 2

[0081]

[0082] From the data in Tables 1 and 2, it can be seen that when the oil-water volume ratio of the full-fiber composite oil-displacing composition obtained in Examples 1-3 is below 2:8, the oil and water can be emulsified to form a stable water-in-oil emulsion, and the viscosity of the emulsion gradually increases with the increase of the oil-water ratio, and the maximum value exceeds 50 times the viscosity of crude oil. It shows that the full-fiber composite oil-displacing composition of the present invention can stabilize the emulsion state well, increase the viscosity of crude oil, and improve the recovery rate.

[0083] It can be seen from Examples 4-6 that when the cellulose derivative is not the specific combination of the present invention, the maximum water content of the full-fiber composite oil-displacing composition after combining with crude oil can only reach 50%, and the effect of increasing crude oil viscosity is slightly reduced.

[0084] It can be seen from Examples 7-8 that the aspect ratio of nanocellulose also affects the emulsification performance of the composition. Too high or too low aspect ratio will reduce its effect of increasing crude oil viscosity.

[0085] It can be seen from Comparative Examples 1-2 that when only nanocellulose or cellulose derivatives are used as oil displacing agents, the maximum water content after combining with crude oil can only reach 30%, the emulsification effect with crude oil is significantly poor, and the increase in crude oil viscosity is not obvious.

[0086] The applicant declares that the present invention illustrates a full-fiber composite oil-displacing composition and its preparation method and application through the above-mentioned embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned detailed process flow, that is, it does not mean that the present invention must rely on the above-mentioned detailed process flow to be implemented. Those skilled in the art should understand that any improvement of the present invention, equivalent replacement of various raw materials of the product of the present invention, addition of auxiliary components, selection of specific methods, etc., all fall within the protection scope and disclosure scope of the present invention.
