Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a fracturing technology, in particular to a composition containing nano-silicon dioxide, a preparation method thereof and a fracturing fluid containing the composition as a plugging agent. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous advancement of oil and gas resource development, tight sandstone reservoirs have gradually become a key target for oil and gas exploration and development. Fracturing is a key measure for increasing reservoir production. It uses pressure to compress the formation to form conductive fractures, thereby reducing fluid flow resistance. Fracturing fluid is a key technology in the fracturing process. This is especially true for normal-pressure and low-pressure tight sandstone reservoirs, which are characterized by low porosity, low permeability, and strong heterogeneity. Adding sand during fracturing is difficult, and the technical requirements for fracturing fluids are higher.
[0003] Currently, polymer-based variable-viscosity fracturing fluids, such as polyacrylamide-based variable-viscosity fracturing fluids, are primarily used in fracturing stimulation. These fracturing fluids can cause significant damage to the reservoir core matrix, with damage rates exceeding 30%. This leads to difficulties in post-process fluid flowback and unsatisfactory gas production in some wells. The main factors causing matrix damage include adsorption and retention of polymer fracturing fluids, as well as water lock damage. Adsorption and retention damage, caused by the thickener in the fracturing fluid accumulating within the porous rock medium, accounts for over 60% of the total reservoir damage. Water lock damage, caused by the penetration of fracturing fluid into the reservoir, makes fluid flowback difficult and results in low flowback rates, inevitably impacting post-fracturing production.
[0004] To address the major reservoir-damaging effects of fracturing fluids, both domestic and international approaches have typically sought to mitigate these reservoir damages by adding drainage aids and water-locking agents. However, these efforts have been less than ideal, particularly with regard to improving the flowback efficiency of the fracturing fluid. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a key treatment agent that can both reduce adsorption and water-locking damage, while also promoting rapid flowback, to address the demands of fracturing treatment technologies for more low-permeability, tight gas reservoirs. Summary of the Invention
