Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield chemical technology, and in particular to a corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] As oilfield development enters its mid-to-late stages, water injection production technology is widely adopted. When conditions such as temperature and pressure change, or when incompatible water comes into contact, scale formation often occurs in the oilfield water. Severe scale formation significantly impacts normal oilfield production, leading to decreased oil and gas output, increased water injection pressure, damage to downhole and surface equipment, and even well shutdowns and abandonment. Adding scale inhibitors to oilfield wastewater can effectively suppress scale formation. This method is economical, convenient, and commonly used in oilfields. Significant progress has been made in the research, application, and development of water injection treatment agents. These agents are primarily used in the petroleum, chemical, and related industrial sectors to reduce environmental pollution and production costs, inhibit scale formation in oilfield water injection systems, improve water injection efficiency, and alleviate scale problems in water injection systems.

[0003] The development of scale inhibitors has progressed from simple inorganic and organic compounds to polymers, from high-phosphorus and low-phosphorus compounds to phosphate-free compounds, and from single-use to compound-use, gradually evolving from single-use to diversified technologies. In the 1960s, natural organic polymers such as tannins, starch, cellulose, and lignin were used as scale inhibitors and dispersants, playing an important role in controlling scale formation in circulating cooling water systems. However, due to their unstable performance, large dosage, high cost, and inferior scale inhibition and dispersion effects compared to synthetic polymer scale inhibitors, they are now rarely used. The phospho-based polyacrylic acid, phospho-based polymaleic acid, and methyl acrylate / acrylic acid copolymers that emerged in the 1970s and early 1980s, and the terpolymers such as acrylic acid / hydroxypropyl acrylate / methyl acrylate and acrylic acid / acrylamide methyl propane / hypophosphoric acid that appeared in the late 1980s, were all developed for inhibiting calcium phosphate. This promoted the development of "organophosphate (salt) copolymers" and phosphorus-based all-organic formulations, but phosphorus-based formulations still accounted for a large proportion until the early 1990s. Inorganic polyphosphate scale inhibitors such as tripolyphosphate and hexametaphosphate can effectively inhibit the formation of these scales. However, inorganic polyphosphates are easily hydrolyzed into orthophosphates, which not only reduces the effectiveness of these scale inhibitors, but also, if not properly controlled, can turn a less serious CaCO3 scale problem into a very serious Ca3(PO)4 scale problem. In addition, the enrichment of water bodies with phosphorus also limits the application of these inorganic polyphosphates. The advent of organophosphate (salt) scale inhibitors and polycarboxylic acid (PCA) inhibitors such as polyacrylic acid and polymaleic acid in the 1960s and 1970s brought about a breakthrough in scale inhibition technology. Compared with inorganic polyphosphate scale inhibitors, they have good chemical stability, are not easily hydrolyzed, can withstand higher water temperatures and high alkalinity, and have excellent inhibitory effects on CaCO3 scale. To reduce the phosphorus content in water, the phosphorus-based formulation of "inorganic polyphosphate-organophosphate (salt)-polyacrylic acid" has been widely used. However, organophosphate scale inhibitors easily form insoluble organophosphate-calcium ion complexes with calcium ions. The degradation products of organophosphate scale inhibitors can also form calcium phosphate precipitates with calcium ions. At high calcium ion concentrations, polyacrylic acid can also form insoluble polyacrylic acid-calcium ion complexes with calcium ions. These insoluble complexes and calcium phosphate precipitates not only reduce the scale inhibition effect of the scale inhibitor itself, but also induce the formation of other scale. Currently, oilfield water injection systems often employ a combination of various organophosphate scale inhibitors (such as ethylenediaminetetramethylene phosphoric acid and butane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid 2-phosphate). These scale inhibitors utilize their chelating effect on calcium ions and their dispersing effect on inorganic scale to alleviate single types of scaling, but they cannot comprehensively solve the scaling problem in oilfield water injection systems. Furthermore, while phosphorus-containing scale inhibitors disperse inorganic scale in the water, they also provide abundant nutrients for bacteria, making sterilization during oilfield injection water treatment more difficult. Poor sterilization can easily lead to equipment corrosion, scaling, and blockage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the limitations of existing drag-reducing agents, which can only alleviate single types of scaling and cannot comprehensively solve the scaling problem in oilfield water injection systems, this invention provides a corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems and its preparation method. Through the chelation and dispersion of scale-forming ions, it can simultaneously alleviate complex scaling in oilfield water injection systems, such as CaCO3 scale, CaSO4 scale, and BaSO4 scale. Moreover, the corrosion and scale inhibitor of this invention for oilfield water injection systems is phosphorus-free and will not provide nutrients to bacteria in the water within the oilfield water injection system, thereby reducing microbial corrosion and clogging of equipment in the water injection system.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is: a corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems. The corrosion and scale inhibitor is a maleic anhydride / acrylic acid / diethylenetriamine copolymer synthesized through a polymerization reaction using maleic anhydride, acrylic acid, and diethylenetriamine as raw materials and a redox initiator. The corrosion and scale inhibitor has the structure shown in Formula I.

[0006] Formula I;

[0007] Where m ranges from 7 to 722, n ranges from 62 to 3180, and x ranges from 74 to 2286.

[0008] The weight ratio of maleic anhydride to acrylic acid and diethylenetriamine is 15-20:10-20:10-20.

[0009] A method for preparing a corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems includes the following steps:

[0010] S1: Dissolve 15-20 parts by weight of maleic anhydride, 10-20 parts by weight of acrylic acid, and 2-4 parts by weight of 5% ferrous sulfate aqueous solution in 25-45 parts by weight of water and stir until completely dissolved. The temperature is controlled at 30-45℃ and kept at a constant temperature for 1-2 hours.

[0011] S2: Add 10-20 parts of a 50% diethylenetriamine aqueous solution and 4-6 parts of a 5% ammonium persulfate aqueous solution to the mixed solution in S1 in sequence. The heat released by the reaction raises the temperature of the mixed solution to 95-100℃.

[0012] S3: When the temperature of the mixed solution in S2 drops to 70-75℃, add 15-18 parts of 1% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution by mass percentage, control the pH value to 6-8, and keep it at a constant temperature in a water bath at 60-90℃ for 4-7 hours to obtain a maleic anhydride / acrylic acid / diethylenetriamine copolymer solution.

[0013] S4: Add 160-266 parts of ethanol to S3 and filter. Dry the insoluble matter at 50-60°C to obtain maleic anhydride / acrylic acid / diethylenetriamine copolymer.

[0014] The formed polymer undergoes a chelation reaction with divalent cations in water as follows:

[0015]

[0016] Where R 2+ For Ca 2+ Mg 2+ Ba 2+ 、Sr 2+ .

[0017] In steps S1 and S2, the weight ratio of maleic anhydride to acrylic acid, diethylenetriamine, and water is 15-20:10-20:10-20.

[0018] In step S3, the solid content in the maleic anhydride / acrylic acid / diethylenetriamine copolymer solution is ≥50%.

[0019] A method for preparing a corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems yields an emulsion-type scale inhibitor with the following properties: scale inhibition rate of CaCO3 scale ≥91.5%, scale inhibition rate of CaSO4 scale ≥95.6%, scale inhibition rate of BaSO4 scale ≥90.5%, and corrosion inhibition rate ≤0.076 mm / a.

[0020] The corrosion and scale inhibitor prepared by the aforementioned method for use in oilfield water injection systems is added before the oilfield water source is treated, at a dosage of 30–80 mg / L.

[0021] When using the corrosion and scale inhibitor prepared by the aforementioned method for oilfield water injection systems, it is added after the oilfield injection water treatment, i.e., before the water injection pump, at a dosage of 30–50 mg / L.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1. The corrosion and scale inhibitor of this invention for oilfield water injection systems, through chelation and dispersion of scale-forming ions, can simultaneously alleviate complex scaling in oilfield water injection systems, such as CaCO3 scale, CaSO4 scale, and BaSO4 scale, compared to existing single-scale treatment scale inhibitors; 2. The preparation method of this invention uses an oxidant / reducant initiation system. Utilizing the copolymerization characteristics of acrylic acid and maleic anhydride, free radical polymerization can be initiated at a lower temperature. The reaction conditions are mild, the system temperature fluctuation is small, and the polymerization process is easy to control. The resulting product is a polyacid-based anionic polymer. The final product is then obtained through diethyltriamine amidation. The amidated anionic polymer compound has stronger electronegativity and a stronger cation-chelating ability; 3. The raw materials required for preparing the corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems according to this invention are readily available, the preparation process is simple, and the product quality is stable; 4. The corrosion and scale inhibitor of this invention for oilfield water injection systems is phosphorus-free and will not provide nutrients to bacteria in the water of the oilfield water injection system, thus reducing microbial corrosion and clogging of equipment in the water injection system.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] A corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems, comprising a maleic anhydride / acrylic acid / diethylenetriamine copolymer synthesized by polymerization reaction using maleic anhydride, acrylic acid, and diethylenetriamine as raw materials and employing a redox initiator, and having the structure shown in Formula I:

[0031] Formula I;

[0032] Where m ranges from 7 to 722, n ranges from 62 to 3180, and x ranges from 74 to 2286.

[0033] The weight ratio of maleic anhydride to acrylic acid and diethylenetriamine is 15-20:10-20:10-20.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] A method for preparing a corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems includes the following steps:

[0036] S1: Dissolve 15-18 parts by weight of maleic anhydride, 10-20 parts by weight of acrylic acid, and 2-4 parts by weight of 5% ferrous sulfate aqueous solution in 25-45% water and stir until completely dissolved. Control the temperature at 30-45℃ and keep it at a constant temperature for 1-2 hours. If the temperature is below 30℃, maleic anhydride is not easily soluble in water. 0.5 hours is required to ensure that maleic anhydride is fully hydrolyzed into maleic acid. The temperature should not exceed 45℃ to prevent the reaction from being too violent when diethylenetriamine is added later.

[0037] S2: Add 10-20 parts of a 50% diethylenetriamine aqueous solution and 4-6 parts of a 5% ammonium persulfate aqueous solution to the mixed solution in S1 in sequence. The heat released by the reaction raises the temperature of the mixed solution to 95-100°C. The order of addition cannot be changed during the reaction. If ammonium persulfate is added first, maleic anhydride and acrylic acid will polymerize first, forming a water-insoluble gel.

[0038] S3: When the temperature of the mixed solution in S2 drops to 70-75℃, add 15-18 parts of a 1% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, control the pH value to 6-8, and maintain the temperature in a constant temperature water bath at 60-90℃ for 4-7 hours to obtain a maleic anhydride / acrylic acid / diethylenetriamine copolymer solution. Adjust the pH value to 6-8 to make the acrylic acid polymer form a salt to increase the solubility of the product. Add diethylenetriamine copolymerization to increase the steric hindrance of the product, control the molecular weight, and prevent the product from gelling. Control the temperature and time to ensure the conversion rate of the polymer monomers.

[0039] S4: Add 160-266 parts of ethanol to S3 and filter. Dry the insoluble matter at 50-60°C to obtain maleic anhydride / acrylic acid / diethylenetriamine copolymer.

[0040] The formed polymer undergoes a chelation reaction with divalent cations in water as follows:

[0041]

[0042] Where R 2+ For Ca 2+ Mg2+ Ba 2+ 、Sr 2+ .

[0043] Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of calcium carbonate scale with and without polymer was used to compare the calcium carbonate scale. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, and a comparison of scanning electron microscopy of calcium sulfate scale with and without polymer, such as... Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the addition of polymer alters the formation of calcium carbonate and calcium sulfate scale, making them looser and less dense. This is because during crystal growth, the polymer is adsorbed into the crystal growth lattice. This adsorption alters the normal morphology of the crystals, hindering their growth into larger crystals. The adsorption of scale inhibitor molecules significantly disrupts the regularity of the crystals, causing crystal deformation and reducing the strength of the scale crystals, making them looser and more easily washed away by water flow. This is the distortion effect of the polymer. Furthermore, polymer molecules can adsorb around crystal nuclei or particles, with their polar parts facing the aqueous phase and their non-polar parts adsorbed on the outside of the particles, resulting in particles carrying a slight negative charge. This charge repulsion prevents the particles from agglomerating due to collisions and hinders their growth. Scale-forming particles can be calcium and magnesium ions, or they can be composed of hundreds or thousands of CaCO3 and MgCO3 molecules.

[0044] In steps S1 and S2, the weight ratio of maleic anhydride to acrylic acid, diethylenetriamine, and water is 15-20:10-20:10-20.

[0045] In step S3, the solid content in the maleic anhydride / acrylic acid / diethylenetriamine copolymer solution is ≥50%. The solid content refers to the solid substance obtained by drying the polymer aqueous solution in S3 at 105±1℃ for 4 hours, with a solid content of ≥50%, to ensure the effect of corrosion inhibition and scale inhibition.

[0046] A method for preparing a corrosion and scale inhibitor for oilfield water injection systems yields an emulsion-type scale inhibitor with the following properties: scale inhibition rate of CaCO3 scale ≥91.5%, scale inhibition rate of CaSO4 scale ≥95.6%, scale inhibition rate of BaSO4 scale ≥90.5%, and corrosion inhibition rate ≤0.076 mm / a.

[0047] The corrosion and scale inhibitor prepared by the aforementioned method for use in oilfield water injection systems is added before the oilfield water source is treated, at a dosage of 30–80 mg / L.

[0048] When using the corrosion and scale inhibitor prepared by the aforementioned method for oilfield water injection systems, it is added after the oilfield injection water treatment, i.e., before the water injection pump, at a dosage of 30–50 mg / L.

[0057] The performance of the corrosion and scale inhibitors prepared in Examples 3-6 for use in oilfield water injection systems was determined using the following methods:

[0058] 1. The scale inhibition rate of CaCO3 scale follows these steps:

[0059] (a) Take a 200 mL volumetric flask and add 6.00 mL of CaCl2 solution. 2+ Add 7.5 mL of a 1000 mg / L corrosion and scale inhibitor solution to a concentration of 4.00 mg / mL. Let stand for 10 minutes, then add 6.00 mL of Na₂CO₃ solution dropwise while shaking. 2- The concentration of the corrosion and scale inhibitor is 6.28 mg / mL. Dilute it to the mark with distilled water, shake well, and the concentration of the corrosion and scale inhibitor is 30 mg / L.

Place it in a 50±1℃ water bath and keep it at a constant temperature for half an hour.

[0101]

[0102] As shown in Table 1, the corrosion and scale inhibitor of this invention for oilfield water injection systems, through chelation and dispersion of scale-forming ions, can simultaneously alleviate complex scaling in oilfield water injection systems, including CaCO3, CaSO4, and BaSO4 scales, compared to existing single-scale treatment agents. Furthermore, this corrosion and scale inhibitor is phosphorus-free and will not provide nutrients to bacteria in the water of the oilfield water injection system, thus reducing microbial corrosion of the equipment. The corrosion and scale inhibitor of this invention for oilfield water injection systems was applied to Well 102 in the Yumen Oilfield using a remote intelligent dosing device via annular injection. After one year of dynamic monitoring, the changes in ions in the produced fluid before and after the dosing were dynamically monitored. Figure 5 As shown, after the addition of the drug, the iron ion content decreased from 275 mg / L to 35 mg / L, and the Ca... 2+ The content increased from 130 mg / L to 228 mg / L, Ba 2+ The content increased from 38 mg / L to 62 mg / L, the iron ion concentration decreased, indicating a reduction in corrosion, and the scale-forming particle concentration increased, indicating a reduction in scaling. The anti-corrosion and anti-scaling effects are significant. It has good compatibility with chemical additives used in oil fields and can be widely used in oil and water wells.
