AI Technical Summary
Existing oil displacement agents are difficult to meet the requirements of high surface activity, temperature resistance, salt resistance and stability at low dosage in medium and low permeability reservoirs. Moreover, the combination of anionic and cationic surfactants is prone to precipitation, which can lead to pore blockage and affect oil displacement efficiency.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield chemistry, specifically to an oil displacement agent, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, medium- and low-permeability oil reservoirs account for 60-70% of my country's total oil reserves, and these reservoirs will be the main resource base for increasing reserves and production for a considerable period to come. Compared to high-permeability reservoirs, residual oil droplets in medium- and low-permeability reservoirs exist in pores with very small throat radii. Under the same conditions, the capillary resistance of these residual oil droplets is much greater than that of high-permeability reservoirs. Therefore, activating these residual oil droplets requires lower oil-water interfacial tension. Secondly, medium- and low-permeability reservoirs have high flow resistance, and liquid can only flow under relatively high displacement pressure. However, high water injection pressure easily causes microfractures to open, allowing water to rush along the fractures, resulting in a small swept volume and reduced oil displacement efficiency.
[0003] Single surfactants have limited interfacial tension properties. Currently, a common method is to use a combination of different types of surfactants to achieve lower oil-water interfacial tension. However, this method suffers from drawbacks such as high surfactant concentrations, poor economic efficiency, and chromatographic separation effects when different types of surfactants are used in combination, affecting the overall performance. Anionic and cationic surfactants can achieve lower oil-water interfacial tension at lower concentrations and have strong salt resistance. Using anionic and cationic surfactants in combination can significantly improve oil displacement efficiency. However, the use of anionic and cationic surfactants in combination still has some problems. For example, under strong anionic-cationic pair interactions, precipitation of the anionic and cationic surfactants can occur. This not only fails to reduce interfacial tension but also clogs pores, causing formation damage.
[0004] Therefore, the oil displacement agent needs to be redesigned to have high surface activity, strong temperature and salt resistance, and strong stability to meet the performance requirements of low-to-medium permeability oil reservoir development. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that existing oil displacement agents cannot meet the performance requirements of surface activity, temperature and salt resistance, and stability during use in the development of low-permeability oil reservoirs at low dosages, and to provide an oil displacement agent, its preparation method, and its application.

[0065] According to the present invention, in the oil displacement agent, the anionic surfactant, cationic surfactant, and zwitterionic surfactant satisfy a specific quantitative relationship. Preferably, the molar ratio of (anionic surfactant + cationic surfactant) to zwitterionic surfactant is 1:(0.25-4), more preferably 1:(0.5-2).
[0066] According to the present invention, in the oil displacement agent, the molar ratio of anionic surfactant to cationic surfactant is 1:(0.1-10), preferably 1:(0.2-5).
[0067] In this invention, while the individual effects of anionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, and zwitterionic surfactants can be considered, the oil displacement agent provided by this invention, when containing the three surfactants with the specific structures described above and satisfying the quantitative relationship, can produce a synergistic effect.

[0173] Test case
[0174] The oil displacement agents S1-S6 and D1-D3 prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-3, as well as conventional oil displacement agent a (used in oilfields, main components: anionic gemini surfactant and amphoteric surfactant), were subjected to interfacial tension tests and simulated oil displacement tests, respectively.
[0175] 1. Interface tension test
[0176] A saturated saline solution with a calcium ion content of 4000 mg / L was prepared using sodium chloride and calcium chloride as a simulated saline solution. The above-mentioned S1-S6, D1-D3 and conventional oil displacement agent a were added to it respectively to obtain simulated saline solutions with an oil displacement agent concentration of 0.1 wt%. The appearance of the solution was observed to see if there were any insoluble substances or precipitates.
[0177] Using a rotating drop interfacial tensiometer (model TX-500C), the interfacial tension (i.e., the interfacial tension before aging) between a simulated brine solution with a displacement agent concentration of 0.1 wt% and dehydrated crude oil was measured at 85℃ and a rotation speed of 3000 rpm. The results are shown in Table 1. Subsequently, the simulated brine solution with a displacement agent concentration of 0.1 wt% was placed in an aging vessel and aged at 120℃ for 72 h. The interfacial tension (i.e., the interfacial tension after aging) between the simulated brine solution and dehydrated crude oil was tested again at 85℃ and a rotation speed of 3000 rpm.

[0178] 2. Simulated oil displacement test

First, the artificial core was displaced with simulated brine without the above-mentioned oil displacement agent until the water cut was 98%. The volume of oil displaced was read and the recovery rate was calculated (denoted as X1). Then, the artificial core was further displaced with simulated brine solution with the above-mentioned oil displacement agent concentration of 0.1 wt% until the water cut was 98%. The volume of oil displaced was read and the total recovery rate was calculated (denoted as X2). The enhanced recovery rate is X2-X1. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0180] Table 1
[0181]
[0182] As shown in Table 1, the oil displacement agents S1-S6 prepared in Examples 1-6 are highly stable and do not precipitate during use. Utilizing the intramolecular and intermolecular cation-anion pairings, S1-S6 exhibits high surface activity even at low concentrations and possesses strong temperature and salt resistance, resulting in significant oil displacement effects compared to conventional oil displacement agents. Furthermore, because the anionic, cationic, and zwitterionic surfactant components in S1-S6 have similar molecular structures, chromatographic separation during use can be reduced or even avoided, thereby enhancing the oil displacement effect in the reservoir.
