Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of natural gas exploitation, and particularly relates to an antifoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of a loose sandstone gas field and a preparation method thereof. Background Technique

[0002] The reservoir of the loose sandstone gas field is a set of strata developed under the control of structure and with a small amount of lithologic control. This reservoir is a clastic salt reservoir with high shale content, poor diagenesis, good physical properties and strong heterogeneity. The lithology is mainly siltstone, argillaceous siltstone with high shale content and a small amount of fine sandstone. During the process of natural gas exploitation, as the gas well produces, the reservoir pressure continuously decreases, the production volume decreases, and liquid accumulation is inevitable. In the initial stage, the gas flow rate is high, and part of the liquid is carried out of the wellbore. However, as the gas well produces, the reservoir energy decreases, the gas flow rate slows down, and the amount of carried liquid becomes less and less until it can no longer carry liquid. Over time, water accumulates continuously, the liquid level increases, and drainage measures must be taken in time. Otherwise, the gas well will not be able to produce, and even be flooded. Therefore, when bottom-hole liquid accumulation occurs, drainage should be carried out in time. In the middle and late stages of exploitation, the foam drainage gas production process has become an essential conventional production process to ensure continuous and stable production. An important link at the end of the foam drainage process is to eliminate foam and ensure gas-liquid separation. If the foam is not eliminated thoroughly, many adverse effects will occur, such as affecting the metering instrument, increasing the pipeline pressure, the foam entering the supercharger will cause flameout, and the foam entering the dehydration skid will cause salt formation, etc.

[0003] During the process of natural gas exploitation in the reservoir of the loose sandstone gas field, sand production in gas wells is very common. Currently, the antifoaming agents used are mainly emulsion-type antifoaming agents based on dimethyl silicone oil, which are continuously injected into the set pipeline at the gas gathering station through an antifoaming tank, an antifoaming skid, etc. Since the produced water contains a large amount of sediment, many problems exist in the actual use process:

[0004] (1) The salinity of the gas reservoir water in sand-containing gas wells is very high, and the dilution stability of conventional dimethyl silicone oil emulsion-type antifoaming agents in high-salinity gas reservoir water is poor;

[0005] (2) Under the disturbance condition of the gas flow, the foam generated by the foam drainage operation is dense due to sediment, resulting in poor defoaming effect of conventional dimethyl silicone oil emulsion-type antifoaming agents on sand-containing foam;

[0006] (3) A large amount of sediment adheres to the surface of the foam during the liquid-carrying process. When the foam breaks, the sediment particles will adhere together in a colloidal mass due to hydration and hydrophobic interaction between particles, forming an "armor"-like solid sediment foam. In severe cases, it will accumulate in the separator, resulting in the failure of gas-liquid separation and causing great difficulties to the subsequent water treatment. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an antifoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of a loose sandstone gas field and a preparation method thereof, so as to solve the problems proposed in the above background technique.

[0008] The implementation process of the present invention is as follows:

[0009] An antifoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of a loose sandstone gas field, comprising the following components by weight:

[0010]

[0011] Furthermore, the modified silicone intermediate is a polyether-modified silicone oil synthesized by using a monoallyl polyether with a mixture of allyl alcohol and sodium α-olefin sulfonate as the initiator and low-hydrogen silicone oil under the conditions of high temperature, negative pressure, and high-speed stirring. Then, the polyether-modified silicone oil, polydimethylsiloxane, salt-resistant emulsifier, and fumed nano-silica particles are dehydrated and de-low-boiling components under reduced pressure and heating to obtain the modified silicone intermediate.

[0012] Furthermore, the specific preparation process of the modified silicone intermediate is as follows:

[0013] (1) Add the initiator and catalyst into a high-pressure reactor, and then sequentially add propylene oxide, ethylene oxide, and allyl trimethyl ammonium chloride. Under the conditions of a pressure of 0.2 - 0.3 Mpa and the reactor temperature rising to 60 - 100 °C, ring-opening polymerization reaction occurs, and keep warm for 2 - 5 h to obtain monoallyl polyether;

[0014] (2) Add low-hydrogen silicone oil and monoallyl polyether into the synthesis reactor according to the mass ratio of 1:1 - 1.6, stir for 5 - 30 min to ensure uniform mixing of raw materials, heat up to 60 - 80 °C, evacuate under a vacuum degree of 700 - 900 Pa for 1 h, heat up to 80 - 90 °C and then add a noble metal catalyst. After the induction period reaction generates heat, heat up to 95 - 115 °C, keep the temperature at 95 - 115 °C for 4 h, take a sample and measure the residual amount of Si-H groups to determine the reaction end point. After reducing to normal pressure and room temperature, obtain polyether-modified silicone oil;

[0015] (3) Add polyether-modified silicone oil, polydimethylsiloxane, salt-resistant emulsifier, and fumed nano-silica particles into the synthesis reactor according to the mass ratio of 1:(0.5 - 1):(0.1 - 0.3):(0.01 - 0.03), stir for 30 - 60 min to ensure uniform mixing of raw materials, heat up to 100 - 120 °C, evacuate under a vacuum degree of 700 - 900 Pa for 1 h, and after reducing to normal pressure and room temperature, obtain the modified silicone intermediate.

[0016] Furthermore, in step (1), the mass ratio of the initiator, propylene oxide, ethylene oxide, and allyl trimethyl ammonium chloride is 1:(3 - 10):(5 - 15):(0.01 - 0.05), the initiator is a mixture of allyl alcohol and sodium α-olefin sulfonate with a mass ratio of 1:(0.1 - 1), and the catalyst is sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide.

[0017] Further, in step (2), the hydrogen content of the low-hydrogen silicone oil is 0.1% - 0.2%, and the viscosity is 150 - 300 cst; the noble metal catalyst is a mixed solution prepared from chloroplatinic acid and isopropanol with a mass ratio of 1:(1 - 10).

[0018] Further, in step (3), the salt-resistant emulsifier is a composite emulsifier prepared from Span emulsifier and Tween emulsifier with a mass ratio of 1:(0.1 - 1), where the Span emulsifier is a mixture composed of one or any several of sorbitan monolaurate, sorbitan monopalmitate, sorbitan monostearate, sorbitan monooleate, and sorbitan trioleate in any proportion; the Tween emulsifier is a mixture composed of one or any several of polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monopalmitate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate in any proportion; the fumed nano-silica particles are nano-silica powdery solids containing partial hydroxyl structures, with a specific surface area of 200 - 300 m 2 / g and a hydrophobicity of 40 - 60.

[0019] Further, the sandstone swelling inhibitor is a mixture composed of one or any several of allyltrimethylammonium chloride, allylbenzyldimethylammonium chloride, and (2-hydroxyethyl)trimethylammonium chloride in any proportion.

[0020] Further, the sandstone wetting agent is a mixture composed of one or any several of alkyl polyglycoside, alkylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, and sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate in any proportion.

[0021] Further, the stabilizer is a mixture composed of one or any several of anionic hydrophobically modified polyacrylic acid, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and starch graft modified polyacrylamide in any proportion; the antifreeze is a mixture composed of one or any several of methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, glycerol, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, and glycerol monomethyl ether in any proportion.

[0022] A preparation method of an antifoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of a loose sandstone gas field includes the following steps:

[0023] (1) Weigh 10 - 50 parts by weight of a modified organosilicon intermediate, 0.1 - 0.5 parts by weight of a sandstone swelling inhibitor, 0.1 - 0.5 parts by weight of a sandstone wetting agent, 0.1 - 5 parts by weight of a stabilizer, 1 - 15 parts by weight of an antifreeze, and 29 - 89 parts by weight of deionized water;

[0024] (2) Add the modified silicone intermediate, sandstone swelling inhibitor, rock wetting agent, stabilizer, antifreeze agent and deionized water into the reactor, and carry out stirring and emulsification reaction at normal temperature and pressure for 30 - 60 min to obtain the defoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of loose sandstone gas fields.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] (1) For the defoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of loose sandstone gas fields prepared by the present invention, the foam suppression component in the main agent silicone intermediate is a polyether-modified silicone oil synthesized by using a monoallyl polyether with a hydrophilic allyl alcohol and sodium α-olefin sulfonate mixture as the initiator and low-hydrogen silicone oil under the conditions of high temperature, negative pressure and high-speed stirring. By strictly controlling the residual amount of Si-H groups, it is ensured that the low-hydrogen silicone oil in the foam suppression component reacts completely, so that there is no precipitation of low-hydrogen silicone oil during the dissolution and dispersion of the defoaming agent product in water, greatly increasing the dilution stability of the defoaming agent product in mineralized gas reservoir water.

[0027] (2) For the defoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of loose sandstone gas fields prepared by the present invention, the foam suppression component polyether-modified silicone oil in the main agent silicone intermediate has allyltrimethylammonium chloride incorporated into the molecular chain segment of the monoallyl polyether. When the defoaming agent intermediate is dispersed in water in the form of emulsion droplets, the droplets are positively charged on the surface, so that the droplets repel each other through electrostatic interaction. This can not only improve the dilution stability of the product in water, but also reduce the cloud point of the polyether-modified silicone oil in the foam aqueous solution, making the defoaming agent micelle droplets with hydrophilic exterior and lipophilic interior smaller in particle size and larger in specific surface area, thus improving the foam suppression performance of the product in high-mineralization gas reservoir water.

[0028] (3) For the defoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of loose sandstone gas fields prepared by the present invention, the foam-breaking component polydimethylsiloxane in the main agent silicone intermediate, polyether-modified silicone oil, salt-tolerant emulsifier and fumed nano-silica particles are first emulsified and then diluted under the conditions of high temperature, negative pressure and high-speed stirring. Under the action of the salt-tolerant surfactant, the polydimethylsiloxane and nano-silica particles can be uniformly and stably dispersed in the silicone intermediate; the uniformly dispersed nano-silica particles in the product system can not only form a stable Pickering emulsion of hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane in the aqueous phase, increasing the dilution stability of polydimethylsiloxane in water, but also the silica particles help the silicone compound to diffuse in water as a carrier, improving the foam-breaking performance of the product in high-mineralization gas reservoir water.

[0029] (4) Due to the hydration effect and the hydrophobic effect on the surface of some particles, the underground argillaceous siltstone will cause the sediment to adhere together, forming a "coat" - like solid sediment foam. The hydration effect makes the volume of sediment particles expand and the surface become virtual, and it is easy for particles to adhere to each other; the surface of some underground argillaceous siltstone is strongly hydrophobic. In the aqueous solution, sediment particles are not only easy to agglomerate, but also will wrap the droplets of modified silicone intermediate liquid, forming sediment micelles. The sandstone swelling inhibitor can effectively prevent the expansion of sediment particles through ion distribution coupling, cause the hydrated and expanded sediment minerals to shrink, and effectively disperse the sediment particles adhered together due to the hydration effect in water; the sandstone wetting agent can effectively improve the hydrophilicity of the surface of sediment particles through the reversal of the wettability of the sandstone surface, preventing the formation of "coat" - like solid sediment foam. The defoamer prepared in the present invention for the liquid - carrying end of loose sandstone gas fields improves the dispersibility of argillaceous sandstone in water by using the sandstone swelling inhibitor and the sandstone wetting agent, effectively solves the problem of agglomeration of argillaceous sandstone in high - salinity brine, and ensures the continuous normal operation of the separator equipment.

[0118] Performance test method for the antifoaming agent for the liquid-carrying end of a loose sandstone gas field:

[0119] Preparation of the foaming liquid: Use the betaine-type foaming agent used on site, and prepare 0.4 wt% with the high salinity brine of the on-site gas reservoir as the foaming liquid for standby.

[0120] Preparation of 10 wt% antifoaming agent dilution: Dilute the antifoaming agent to 10 wt% with deionized water.

[0121] (1) Foam-breaking time

[0122] Measure 100 ml of the prepared foaming agent solution with a measuring cylinder and pour it into a 500 ml measuring cylinder. Use a syringe with a needle to suck 3 ml of the 10 wt% antifoaming agent dilution for standby; connect the elbow quartz sand dispersion head, put the dispersion head into the measuring cylinder, and pass in 0.1 m 3 / h of gas until the fine foam reaches the 500 ml scale, then stop passing in the gas, quickly take out the quartz sand dispersion head, immediately spray the 3 ml of antifoaming agent in the syringe quickly and evenly (spray it out within 3 seconds) on the 500 ml of foam, and at the same time press the stopwatch to observe the time required for the foam to completely break (looking down from the mouth of the measuring cylinder, the liquid surface can be seen), which is the foam-breaking time.

[0123] (2) Foam suppression time

[0124] Measure 100 ml of the prepared foaming agent solution with a measuring cylinder and pour it into a 500 ml measuring cylinder. Use a syringe to suck 3 ml of the prepared antifoaming agent dilution and add it to the measuring cylinder. Connect the straight quartz sand dispersion head, insert the dispersion head into the porous rubber stopper, put it into the measuring cylinder, and pass in 0.3 m 3 / h of gas and press the stopwatch at the same time to observe the time required for the foam to reach the 500 ml scale, which is the foam suppression time. If the foam has not reached 500 ml after 60 min, the experiment can be terminated and it is determined that the foam suppression performance of the antifoaming agent meets the standard.

[0125] (3) Defoaming rate

[0126] Weigh 3 g of on-site argillaceous sandstone into a stirring cup, and then weigh 100 mL of the prepared foaming liquid into the stirring cup to obtain a foaming liquid sample with a sand content of 3%. Fix the stirring cup on a high-speed stirrer and stir at a speed of 12,000 r / min for 3 min. Immediately pour it into a 500 mL measuring cylinder after taking it down, and record the foam volume V1 in the measuring cylinder.

[0127] Configure the foaming liquid sample with a sand content of 3% in the same way, stir it at a speed of 12,000 r / min for 3 min, remove the stirring cup, add 0.4 mL of the undiluted defoaming agent to the stirred foam, fix the stirring cup on the high-speed stirrer, and stir it at a speed of 12,000 r / min for 1 min. Immediately pour it into a 500 mL graduated cylinder after removing, press the stopwatch, and record the volume V2 of the foam in the graduated cylinder when it stands still for 1 min.

[0128] Calculation of defoaming rate: D = (V1 - V2) × 100 / V1

[0129] In the formula: D - defoaming rate, %

[0130] V1 - volume of the foaming liquid foam, mL

[0131] V2 - volume of the foam after standing still for 1 min after adding the defoaming agent and stirring, mL (4) Dilution stability in gas reservoir water

[0132] Measure 10 mL of the defoaming agent into a 100 mL stoppered test tube, add 90 mL of the high salinity brine from the on-site gas reservoir, cover the bottle cap, invert the test tube up and down 20 times, shake well, let it stand at room temperature for 24 h, and record the volume of the supernatant liquid separated out.

[0133]

[0134]

[0135] Figure 2 For Example 1 as the defoaming agent, the laboratory effect photos before defoaming - after defoaming - foam suppression. As can be seen from the pictures, Example 1 has good defoaming and foam suppression performance for the betaine-based foaming agent used on-site in high salinity brine, with a fast defoaming time and a long foam suppression time.

[0136] Figure 3 For Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 - 2 as defoaming agents in the defoaming rate test, the experimental photos before and after adding the defoaming agent. For the dense foam containing sediment formed under high-speed conditions, at a concentration of 0.4 wt%, the defoaming rate of Example 1 reaches 100%, and there is no residual foam on the liquid surface after defoaming. While under the same conditions, the defoaming rates of the foreign samples in Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are only 88.26% and 92.18%, respectively, and there are more residual foams on the liquid surface after defoaming.

[0137] Figure 4For the dilution stability experiments of Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 as defoamers in high salinity field gas reservoir water in the dilution stability experiment. Examples 1 to 6 have good dilution stability in the field high salinity gas reservoir water. The 10% diluted aqueous solution is left standing at room temperature and normal pressure for 24 hours without stratification, precipitation, or floating substances, and the solution remains a homogeneous emulsion. The 10% diluted aqueous solutions of Comparative Examples 1 to 2 have poor emulsion stability under the same conditions. Stratification occurs in the solution after 0.5 hours, and the stratification reaches equilibrium after 24 hours. It can be seen that the concentration of the oil phase defoaming component in the lower layer solution becomes significantly smaller, and the stratification phenomenon will greatly affect the on-site use effect of the defoamer.

[0138] Figure 5 They are the appearance photos of the products of Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2.

[0139] Figure 6 They are the photos of the defoaming process in the sewage pool at the end of the gas reservoir water when Example 1 is used as a defoamer in the field of the liquid-carrying end of a loose sandstone gas field. As can be seen from the figure, when the defoamer is continuously added at a concentration of 0.4% of the gathering and transportation liquid volume, after 6 hours of defoaming, at the end of the gas reservoir water, 5000 m 3 The area of dry foam containing sediment on the sewage pool liquid surface is significantly reduced. After 24 hours of defoaming, all the dry foam containing sediment on the sewage pool liquid surface disappears.

[0140] In summary, the defoamer prepared for the liquid-carrying end of the loose sandstone gas field of the present invention has good defoaming and foam inhibition performance; under the harsh conditions of high-speed stirring with sand-containing liquid, the defoaming performance remains stable; the dilution stability of the product evaluated with field gas reservoir high salinity brine is good, and it can achieve the purpose of quickly defoaming at the liquid-carrying end of the foam drainage operation in the loose sandstone gas field.

[0141] The above content is a further detailed description of the present invention in combination with specific preferred embodiments, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention pertains, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made, and all should be regarded as belonging to the protection scope of the present invention.
