[0097] Comparative Example 1
[0098] A foamed drilling fluid was prepared, the formulation and preparation method were the same as Example 1, the only difference was that "0.2wt% zinc butyl octyl dithiophosphate (T202)" was replaced by "0.2wt% sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate".
[0099] Comparative Example 2
[0100] A foamed drilling fluid was prepared, the formulation and preparation method were the same as Example 1, the only difference was that "0.2wt% zinc butyl octyl dithiophosphate (T202)" was replaced by "0.1wt% zinc butyl octyl dithiophosphate (T202)".
[0101] Comparative Example 3
[0102] A foamed drilling fluid was prepared, the formulation and preparation method were the same as Example 1, the only difference was that "0.2wt% zinc butyl octyl dithiophosphate (T202)" was replaced by "1.0wt% zinc butyl octyl dithiophosphate (T202)".
[0103] Comparative Example 4
[0104] A foamed drilling fluid was prepared, the formulation and preparation method were the same as Example 4, the only difference was that "0.5wt% hydroxymethyl cellulose (HEC, molecular weight 900,000)" was replaced by "1.5wt% hydroxymethyl cellulose (HEC, molecular weight 900,000)".
[0105] Comparative Example 5
[0106] A foamed drilling fluid was prepared, the formulation and preparation method were the same as Example 4, the only difference was that "1.0wt% dibutyl phosphite" was replaced by "0.5wt% dibutyl phosphite".
[0107] Test Example 1
[0108] Drilling fluid foam half-life and basic performance test.
[0109] 500mL of the foamed drilling fluid prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 was immediately poured into 5 1000mL measuring cylinders, respectively, and the timing was started, and the foam half-life was recorded. Another 500mL of the foamed drilling fluid prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Example 1 was immediately poured into a 1000mL measuring cylinder, and the timing was started, and the foam half-life was recorded. The rheological properties and extreme pressure lubrication properties of the foamed drilling fluid prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Example 1 were determined according to GB 16783.1-2014 "Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry Drilling Fluids Field Test Part 1: Water-based Drilling Fluids". The same extreme pressure lubrication coefficient test was performed on clean water as a control, and the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0110] Table 1
[0111]
[0112] According to the test results in Table 1, the foam half-life of the solid-free low friction foam drilling fluid prepared in Examples 1-5 is more than 95 min, which is obviously higher than that of the drilling fluids in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, indicating that the solid-free low friction foam drilling fluid of the present application has good foam stability. The foam half-life of the drilling fluid in Comparative Example 3 is not obviously increased, although the amount of the foaming agent is 1.0 wt%. The drilling fluid prepared in Examples 1-5 has suitable rheological properties, while the viscosity of the drilling fluid in Comparative Example 4 is too high and the shear force is too large, because the amount of the thickening agent HEC is 1.5 wt%. The solid-free low friction foam drilling fluid prepared in Examples 1-5 greatly reduces the lubrication coefficient of the drilling fluid, reduces the frictional resistance of the drilling fluid, and improves the lubricity of the drilling fluid. Compared with Comparative Example 1, the foaming agent sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate in Comparative Example 1 does not have synergistic effect with trimethyl phosphate, and the lubricity is greatly reduced. Compared with Comparative Example 5, when the amount of dibutyl phosphite is reduced to 0.5 wt%, the synergistic effect with other treatment agents is also reduced, and the lubricity is poor.
[0113] Test Example 2
[0114] Temperature resistance test of the drilling fluid.
[0115] The foam drilling fluids prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were taken and placed in an aging tank, and after constant temperature rolling at 120℃ for 16 h, the foam drilling fluids were taken out, cooled to room temperature, and stirred at high speed for 2 min at 11000 r / min, and then the basic properties and rheological properties of the foam drilling fluids were determined. The same extreme pressure lubrication coefficient test was performed on water as a control, and the test results are shown in Table 2.
[0116] Table 2
[0117]
[0118] According to the test results in Table 2, after the foam drilling fluids prepared in Examples 1-5 were aged at 120℃ for 16 h, the half-life and viscosity were slightly reduced, but the lubricity of the drilling fluid was improved, indicating that the solid-free low friction foam drilling fluid of the present application has good temperature resistance, and can still stably maintain the foam half-life, rheological properties and lubricity after high temperature aging.
[0119] In summary, the solid-free low friction foam drilling fluid provided by the present application uses ZDDP as a foaming agent, which improves the foam stability and lubricity of the drilling fluid, and reduces the friction of the drilling fluid.
[0120] The above only describes the preferred examples of the present application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, under the technical inspiration provided by the present application, other equivalent variants and improvements as common knowledge in the art can also be made, and should be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
