Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of oilfield chemical technology, specifically relating to a polymer thickener and filtration loss reducer and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Under high temperature and high salinity conditions, the viscosity and shear stress of the drilling fluid must be maintained within a suitable range to ensure wellbore cleanliness and safe drilling. When the viscosity is too low, it can be increased by increasing the bentonite content; however, this method increases the solid content in the drilling fluid, which is detrimental to improving mechanical drilling speed and protecting oil and gas reservoirs. Therefore, viscosifiers are usually added to increase the viscosity of the drilling fluid and improve its rheological properties. Besides increasing viscosity, viscosifiers also have coating inhibition and filtration loss reduction effects, thus contributing to wellbore stability.

[0003] Currently used water-based drilling fluid thickeners such as carboxymethyl cellulose and modified guar gum have good salt resistance, capable of withstanding salt saturation, but their temperature resistance is below 150℃. Synthetic polymers, mainly partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide and its derivatives, can effectively thicken fluids with molecular weights greater than 1 million, but their salt resistance is poor. Furthermore, these thickeners lack inhibition effects when facing shale formations, easily causing wellbore instability. For example, patent CN103113518 B provides a drilling fluid thickener and its preparation method, producing an amphoteric hydrophobic associative thickener. This thickener exhibits excellent temperature resistance but poor salt resistance and lacks shale inhibition properties. Summary of the Invention
