Abstract

The present invention relates to a fatty amine polyoxyethylene ether carboxylate and a preparation method thereof, wherein problems that the foaming agent has poor thermal stability, produces precipitate after contacting divalent ions, and can not meet requirements of high temperature and high salinity stratum foam flooding in the existing foam flooding enhanced oil extraction technology are mainly solved with the present invention. The technical scheme comprises that: a fatty amine polyoxyethylene ether carboxylate having a molecule general formula (I) and a preparation method thereof are adopted, wherein M is one selected from an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal or an ammonium group, R is a C8-C40 alkyl, and the sum of m and n is an integer of 1-40. With the technical scheme, the problems in the prior art are well solved, and the fatty amine polyoxyethylene ether carboxylate can be used for foam flooding enhanced oil extraction. The formula (I) is as the follow.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a fatty amine polyoxyethylene ether carboxylate and a preparation method thereof. Background technique

[0002] The main oilfields in my country have entered a high water cut period after primary and secondary recovery. How to improve oil recovery and maximize the development of remaining reserves, tertiary oil recovery technology has played a very important role in ensuring stable and high production of oil fields. Among new technologies for tertiary oil recovery, chemical composite flooding is still one of the most promising methods. The oil displacement mechanism is mainly that the polymer increases the viscosity of the displacement water, reduces the oil-water mobility ratio, alleviates the channeling phenomenon, and improves the sweeping efficiency; the surfactant and the alkali reduce the oil / water interfacial tension, increase the capillary number, and promote the self-sustainability of crude oil. Desorption and effecti...
