Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cement slurry technology for oil and gas field cementing, specifically to a low-friction, salt-resistant, high-density oil well cement slurry and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] In oil and gas well cementing, high pore pressure, wellbore instability, and plastic flow formations all require control using high hydrostatic pressure. To maintain wellbore stability and safe operation, it is necessary to increase the density of the cement slurry. The frictional resistance during cementing injection has a very significant response to the equivalent circulating density. If the frictional resistance is high, it will generate enormous back pressure in the annulus between the casing and the formation, potentially leading to formation fracturing, circulation loss, and other well control problems. In small-diameter drilling technology, the reduced casing inner diameter increases the flow resistance and friction coefficient of the cementing system, resulting in increased pump pressure during cementing operations. Therefore, in situations with long open-hole sections, small annular spaces, large flow friction pressure drops, and high operating pressures, reducing the frictional resistance of the cement slurry is crucial for ensuring safe cementing operations.
[0003] In the western part of the Turpan-Hami Oilfield, the Tertiary N1t and Esh formations in the Yanmuxi, Shenquan, and Pubei blocks contain large sections of salt-gypsum layers. The total salinity of the drilling fluid filtrate in these formations is high, and using salt-resistant cement slurry can improve cementing quality and reduce costs. In ultra-deep well cementing operations, such as in the Keshen well area of the Tarim Oilfield, due to the development of downhole salt-gypsum layers, narrow gaps, high pressure, high temperature, and large temperature differences, salt-resistant cement slurry systems can solve cementing problems and seal high-pressure brine layers, ensuring safe and efficient development. In areas such as the Missan Oilfield in Iraq, where high-pressure salt-gypsum layers are common at the well bottom and the pressure window is narrow, using salt-resistant high-performance cement slurry systems can solve problems such as cement slurry thickening and thixotropy that may occur due to high-salt mixed water preparation, while also improving the compressive strength of the cement stone. In cementing operations requiring the sealing of abnormally high-pressure gas layers and high-pressure brine layers, such as the Guanshen 1 well, an ultra-high-density cement slurry system is employed. This system boasts advantages such as good fluidity, high strength, high-temperature resistance, and strong anti-channeling capability, effectively addressing the practical difficulties of cementing. In cementing operations requiring the penetration or sealing of saline formations, ultra-deep wells, high-pressure salt-gypsum layers, and the sealing of high-pressure gas and brine layers, the stability and durability of the cement slurry are particularly crucial. Traditional high-density cement slurries are easily affected by salt in high-salt environments, leading to performance degradation and an inability to maintain the required cementing performance over the long term.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes a low-friction, salt-resistant, high-density cement slurry. The aim is to achieve lower friction, superior rheological properties and stability, and higher strength in cementing operations under complex environments such as high temperature, high pressure, and high salt content, through innovative formulation and preparation processes.

[0108] Experimental Example
[0109] The cement slurries prepared from Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were tested for various properties according to API specifications.
[0110] (1) Rheology
[0111] The rheological properties of the cement slurries prepared in Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1-2 at room temperature and after heat curing were measured respectively. The experimental results are shown in Table 1 and 2. Figure 1 As shown.
[0112] Table 1. Rheological results of high-density cement paste
[0113]
[0114] (Note: " / " indicates no reading at a certain speed; based on field application, the curing temperature for high-density cement slurry without weighting agent is 90℃; the curing temperature for high-density cement slurry with barite as weighting agent is 90℃; the curing temperature for high-density cement slurry with iron ore powder as weighting agent is 65℃.)
[0115] As shown in Table 1, the density range of the high-density cement slurry in this invention patent is 2.0 g / cm³. 3 ~2.50g / cm 3 It exhibits good rheological properties. A comparison of Examples 2 and 4 shows that the rheological indices of high-density cement slurry without weighting agents and high-density cement slurry weighted with barite are basically the same, indicating comparable rheological properties. However, from a cost perspective, the cost of the cement slurry is significantly reduced. A comparison of Example 8 and Comparative Examples 1-2 shows that the drag-reducing agent prepared from the low-friction, salt-resistant high-density cement slurry has excellent rheological properties and also exhibits resistance to saturated salt water, while the aldehyde-ketone polymer USZ-type drag-reducing agent does not possess salt resistance. From... Figure 1 It is known that the drag-reducing agent composed of polycarboxylic acid polymer and aldehyde-ketone condensate dispersant of the present invention has a temperature resistance of up to 221°C, as shown by TG-DTA analysis.
[0116] (2) Comprehensive performance evaluation of high-density cement paste
[0117] The comprehensive performance of the cement slurries prepared in Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1-2 was measured respectively, and the experimental results are shown in Table 2.
[0118] Table 2. Comprehensive Performance Evaluation of High-Density Cement Slurry
[0119]
[0120] As shown in Table 1, with the increase of cement slurry density, all the indicators of the cement slurry meet the construction requirements. The compressive strength of the cement stone is greater than 25 MPa after 24 hours, the water loss of the cement slurry is ≤40 mL, the settling stability of the cement slurry density difference is almost 0, and the free liquid is 0, indicating good overall performance. As shown in Table 4, the rheological properties are excellent.
[0121] (3) Friction coefficient
[0122] Friction resistance of low-friction, salt-resistant, high-density cement slurry was studied according to SY / T 5480-2007 "Cementing Design Specification". Taking a 5.5-inch casing as an example, the flow velocity ν of the cement slurry is generally set to 1.1 m / s. The casing outer diameter D... w The inner diameter of the casing is 139.7 mm, and the wall thickness is 9.17 mm. i The diameter is 121.36 mm. Based on the inner diameter of the casing, the density of the cement grout, and the flow index n and consistency coefficient k of the cement grout, the Reynolds number R of the cement grout can be calculated. e Then, the friction coefficient of the cement grout is calculated. The Reynolds number R... e The formula is shown in equation (1): K RePL The value is 1.
[0123]
[0124] For turbulent flow, the proportion of the effect of the sidewall increases; at the same time, due to the limitations of the well structure, the discharge rate of cementing operations is relatively small, and there is a greater chance of being in the transition zone from laminar to turbulent flow. Therefore, the friction coefficient under turbulent flow is calculated using a method suitable for narrow gaps. Thus, we determine the values of A and B according to turbulent flow. When the flow state is turbulent, the friction coefficient f is calculated as follows: regardless of the geometry in which the fluid flows, f is calculated according to the following formula (2).
[0125]
[0126] The values of A and B are determined based on n, according to SY / T 5480-2007, as shown in Table 3 below:
[0127] Table 3. Values of A and B
[0128] n A B 0.2 0.0646 0.349 0.3 0.0685 0.325 0.4 0.0712 0.307 0.6 0.074 0.281 0.8 0.076 0.263 1.0 0.0779 0.250
[0129] The comprehensive properties of the cement slurries prepared in Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were measured respectively, and the experimental results are shown in Table 2.

[0132] (Note: " / " indicates that it cannot be calculated; based on the field application, the curing temperature of high-density cement slurry without weighting agent is 90℃; the curing temperature of high-density cement slurry with barite as weighting agent is 90℃; the curing temperature of high-density cement slurry with iron ore powder as weighting agent is 65℃.)
[0133] To ensure safe construction, according to cementing technology requirements, the friction coefficient of cement slurry should be <0.3, which is the minimum standard for safe cementing construction. Based on actual on-site construction needs and to meet various construction conditions, the friction coefficient of cement slurry in actual cementing processes is generally less than 0.15. According to practical cementing construction experience, the optimal friction coefficient for cement slurry is currently 0.08. The lower the friction coefficient of the cement slurry, the lower its rheological properties, which is more conducive to cement slurry return and better ensures cementing quality. Table 3 shows that the low-friction, high-density cement slurry of Examples 1-11 has a friction coefficient not exceeding 0.08, which is very low. The friction coefficient of the USZ type aldehyde-ketone polymer drag reducer in Comparative Examples 1-2 is around 0.11. The drag reducer formulated with the polycarboxylic acid polymer and aldehyde-ketone condensate dispersant of this invention significantly reduces the friction coefficient by more than 35.2%. The main mechanism is that the hydrogen bonds formed by the association of strongly hydrophilic polar groups such as carboxyl, hydroxyl, sulfonic acid, and ether bonds in this drag-reducing agent with water molecules can improve the wettability of cement particle surfaces, reduce friction between cement particles, and maintain the fluidity of cement concrete. Meanwhile, the low-friction, salt-resistant, high-density drag-reducing agent in this invention not only has good particle size distribution, but also exhibits very low friction and significant resistance to saturated salt water, making it suitable for a wide range of cementing applications.
