Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil-displacing agents, and in particular to a nano oil-displacing agent and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Oil resources are an important guarantee for China's industrial development. With the continuous development of my country's economy and the advancement of science and technology, my country's oil demand continues to grow, and its dependence on foreign oil continues to increase. my country's low-permeability oil reservoir reserves are about 23 billion tons, accounting for >70%, and the proportion is increasing year by year, with broad development prospects and potential.

[0003] For low permeability reservoirs, the pore throat radius of the reservoir rock matrix is ​​narrow, the connectivity between each other is poor, the porosity is low, and the pore type is complex, resulting in large seepage resistance and unclear seepage rules. Large-scale volume fracturing technology is to break rocks and form cracks by injecting fracturing fluid at high pressure, thereby increasing the production of oil and gas wells. This method is particularly important in the development of low permeability reservoirs, but after volume fracturing of low permeability reservoirs, as the mining time increases, the energy of the oil and gas layer itself is continuously consumed, the pressure continues to drop, the production drops sharply, and even production is stopped, resulting in a large amount of oil and gas remaining underground that cannot be recovered. Even if repeated fracturing is used, the fracturing effect is not ideal due to insufficient energy. Self-flowing oil production and water injection secondary oil production are common oil production methods for low permeability reservoirs. Spontaneous flow recovery is suitable for oil wells that can spontaneously generate pressure, while water injection secondary oil recovery is to increase the pressure by injecting water into the oil reservoir, thereby improving the recovery rate. Traditional water drive has difficulty in replenishing energy and is mainly based on non-Darcy seepage. It is difficult to establish an effective displacement system and production is difficult. Polymer injection tertiary oil recovery is a method used when water injection secondary oil recovery is not effective. By injecting polymers, the oil-water mobility ratio is improved to further improve the recovery rate.

[0004] In 2022, Yang Chaolan et al. published "Research Progress of Nano-Oil Displacement Agents in the Past Decade" in "Applied Chemical Industry". The article mentioned that "chemical flooding refers to adding a certain amount of chemical reagents to the injection fluid. Common chemical flooding can be divided into: polymer flooding, surfactant flooding and composite flooding. Polymer flooding has outstanding effects in improving mobility ratio and profile adjustment, and is the most widely used, but the synthesis of polymers is difficult to combine excellent properties such as temperature resistance and salt resistance, and improved mobility ratio; surfactant flooding increases crude oil recovery by reducing interfacial tension and changing wettability, but the surfactant sweep efficiency is low and the adsorption loss is large; composite flooding can coordinate the oil displacement mechanism of polymers and surfactants, and has high displacement efficiency but there is a chromatographic separation phenomenon. , affecting oil recovery efficiency; in summary, the current large-scale chemical flooding has certain defects, which limits the field application of chemical flooding, and it is urgent to study new technologies to improve recovery. "The article proposes that "nano oil-displacing agents have the ability to reduce interfacial tension, improve mobility ratio, generate separation pressure, and change the wettability of reservoir rock surface. They are prepared by coupling agent modification, polymerization modification, hybridization, and compounding with surfactants or polymers. According to the different states of existence, they are divided into nanopowders, nano-Pickering emulsions, and nano-emulsions. However, the research on nano-oil-displacing agents is still at the stage of theoretical analysis and laboratory research, and is not suitable for field application due to various factors."

[0005] In addition, the above technical solution introduces the unique physical and chemical properties of SiO2 nanoparticles, which can more effectively strip crude oil by reducing the oil-water interfacial tension and changing the wettability of the rock surface, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing production. However, there are problems such as small particle size, easy agglomeration, and limited ability to change the wettability of the rock surface.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a nano oil-displacing agent and a preparation method thereof to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art. Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of this, the present invention provides a nano oil-displacing agent and a preparation method thereof, which improve the dispersibility of the nano oil-displacing agent and the ability to change the wettability of the rock surface, thereby achieving improved recovery.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for preparing a nano oil-displacing agent, comprising the following steps:

[0009] S1, dissolving the template in water, adding H2SO4 and silica precursor solution in sequence, standing and separating to obtain a precipitate, washing and drying after aging, and calcining to obtain mesoporous nano-SiO2;

[0010] S2, stirring the nanoparticles with water and potassium sorbate to obtain a stable suspension, adding the mesoporous nano-SiO2 and stirring evenly to obtain a composite nanoparticle suspension;

[0011] S3, adding fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and trehalose lipid into the composite nanoparticle suspension and stirring to obtain an initial nano oil-displacing agent, and after two-step filtration, obtaining a nano oil-displacing agent.

[0012] The technical solution provided by the present invention first prepares mesoporous nano-SiO2 particles, which are embedded in the pores of mesoporous particles with their high specific surface area and pores through the interaction between particles, thereby reducing the aggregation and precipitation of nano-particles. At the same time, the formed composite nano-particles have a small volume and a large specific surface area, thereby increasing the contact area with crude oil and improving the desorption efficiency of crude oil. Secondly, potassium sorbate is used together with the nano-particles, and potassium sorbate is adsorbed on the surface of the nano-particles to prevent particle aggregation through electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance effects, thereby improving the dispersibility of the nano-particles. Finally, potassium sorbate contains hydrophilic hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, which enhance the hydrophilicity of the nano-particles after combining with the nano-particles, and is more likely to form hydrogen bonds with hydroxyl groups in trehalose lipid and fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester, thereby enhancing the stability of the system and facilitating the amphiphilic modification of trehalose lipid. The phosphate monoester group of the fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester carries a negative charge, which forms an electrostatic interaction with potassium ions generated by potassium sorbate, thereby stabilizing the micelle structure and preventing particle aggregation, thereby further enhancing the dispersibility of the nano-particles.

[0013] The technical solution provided by the present invention adopts the use of fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and trehalose lipid together, and hydrogen bonds are formed between the hydroxyl group and the phosphate group of the polyoxyethylene chain in the fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and the hydroxyl group and water molecules of the trehalose lipid, thereby enhancing the compatibility of the oil displacement agent with water; the long chain of the fatty alcohol of the fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and the long chain fatty acid of the trehalose lipid can form a hydrophobic interaction, which is helpful to form a stable micelle structure, thereby improving the dispersibility and stability of the entire system, and forming a hydrophobic effect with the oil molecules, thereby improving the adsorption capacity of the oil displacement agent to oil, and combining with the trehalose lipid to improve the viscosity of the system and then enhance the adhesion of the system to the rock surface, thereby jointly achieving the hydrophilic and lipophilic effects of the oil displacement agent.

[0014] In addition, fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and trehalose lipids both have strong emulsifying ability. The combined use of the two can further enhance the emulsification effect and change the wettability of the rock surface, which helps to peel crude oil from the rock surface and disperse it into the water, thereby improving the recovery rate.

[0015] Optionally, the silicon dioxide precursor solution in S1 is a sodium silicate solution.

[0016] Optionally, the sodium silicate solution is prepared by mixing 14% by mass of NaOH and 27% by mass of SiO2 with water.

[0017] The sodium silicate solution used in the present invention improves the dispersibility of the oil displacement agent.

[0018] Optionally, the template agent in S1 is cocamidopropyl betaine.

[0019] Optionally, the nanoparticles in S2 are a combination of two or more of MgO, Fe2O3, NiO, Al2O3, CaO, ZnO and CuO.

[0021] Optionally, the nanoparticles include MgO, NiO and Al2O3, and the mass ratio of MgO, NiO and Al2O3 is 2:1:2.

[0022] When the nanoparticles used in the technical solution of the present invention are MgO, NiO and Al2O3, the oil recovery effect is good.

[0023] Optionally, the template dissolution condition in S1 is 300-500 r / min for 3.5-4.5 h, the H2SO4 addition condition is dropwise addition, the silica precursor solution addition condition is injection at a flow rate of 1-2 ml / min, and the standing time is 3-4 h.

[0024] Optionally, the separation condition in S1 is centrifugation at 4500-5500 rpm for 10-20 min; the aging condition is vacuum, temperature 75-85° C., time 23-24 h; and the calcination condition is nitrogen atmosphere, 580-620° C., 3.5-4.5 h.

[0025] Optionally, the stirring condition is 400-500 r / min for 1-2 h; the two-step filtration in S3 includes preliminary filtration of the initial nano oil-displacing agent through a solvent filtration bottle with a 0.45 μm filter membrane, and then secondary filtration with a 0.22 μm filter membrane.

[0026] The technical solution of the present invention uses two-step filtration to filter out large particle impurities and reduce the aggregation and sedimentation of nanoparticles in the oil displacement agent.

[0027] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention also provides a nano oil-displacing agent, which is prepared by the above preparation method and comprises the following components in parts by weight: 90-110 parts of a template, 8-12 parts of H2SO4, 25-35 parts of a silicon dioxide precursor, 4-6 parts of nanoparticles, 1-1.5 parts of potassium sorbate, 0.2-0.6 parts of fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and 0.7-1.4 parts of trehalose lipid.

[0028] The above technical solution of the present invention includes at least the following beneficial effects:

[0029] In the preparation method provided by the present invention, potassium sorbate and nanoparticles are used together, and the adsorption and group bonding of the two are utilized to enhance the dispersibility of the nanoparticles and prevent the aggregation of the particles. The raw materials also include fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and trehalose lipid containing hydroxyl groups, which form hydrogen bonds with potassium sorbate to enhance the stability of the system. The hydrogen bonds formed between the hydroxyl groups between the fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and the trehalose lipid and water also enhance the compatibility of the oil displacement agent with water. The fatty alcohol long chain of the fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester and the long chain fatty acid of the trehalose lipid can form a hydrophobic interaction, thereby enhancing the adsorption capacity of the oil displacement agent to oil, comprehensively enhancing the adhesion of the system to the rock surface, improving the wettability of the rock surface, and further enhancing the recovery rate.

[0067] Comparative Example 5

[0068] Petroleum sulfonate oil displacement agent commonly used in this industry.

[0069] The performance test was performed on the oil displacing agents prepared in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5. The basic performance and performance data after aging of the oil displacing agents in Examples 1 to 6 at a concentration of 0.3% are shown in Table 1, the aging condition is 120°C, and the mineralization degree is 100000 mg / L; the contact angle comparison diagram of the examples and the comparative examples is shown in Figure 1, the emulsification water separation rate diagram of the embodiment and the comparative example is shown in Figure 2 .

[0070] Table 1 Basic performance table and performance after aging of oil displacement agents prepared in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 at a concentration of 0.3%

[0071]

[0072] As can be seen from Table 1, the oil-displacing agents of Examples 1 to 6 prepared by the present invention have smaller contact angles, smaller contact angle decay time differences, and smaller interfacial tensions than the oil-displacing agents of Comparative Examples 1 to 5. That is, the oil-displacing agents prepared by the embodiments of the present invention have a greater change in the wettability of rocks, thereby improving oil recovery.

[0073] Depend on Figure 1 It can be seen that compared with the oil-displacing agent prepared in Comparative Example 1, the contact angle of the oil-displacing agent prepared in Examples 1 and 2 of the present invention decreases faster over time, and the contact angle and interfacial tension are smaller. The smaller the contact angle, the better the wettability. It can be seen that trehalose lipid can be combined with other raw materials to improve the wettability of the oil-displacing agent.

[0074] Depend on Figure 2 It can be seen that the oil-displacing agent prepared in Example 2 of the present invention has a smaller water separation rate and a better emulsification effect than the oil-displacing agent prepared in Comparative Example 2, that is, the fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate monoester combined with the other raw materials improves the emulsification of the oil-displacing agent.

[0075] In summary, the oil displacing agent prepared by the present invention can improve the recovery rate by improving the basic performance of the oil displacing agent.

[0076] The following is the effect of oil displacement agent in actual application scenarios.

[0077] 1. Application in an oil field in Daqing

[0078] Reservoir background: A block in Daqing Oilfield belongs to a low-porosity and low-permeability reservoir, which is a fault-block-lithologic reservoir with poor inter-well connectivity. The fractures in the whole area are obviously developed in the east-west direction, and the fractures are close to the oil production wells, which can easily cause high water content in the oil production wells. The development time is relatively long. After two rounds of fracturing, the production drops rapidly, and the comprehensive water content is relatively high. After two stages of fracturing, although the oil production has increased, the overall production is not high. The current daily oil production has dropped to less than 1t. The water content is high, which has increased by about 90%. The cumulative production is not high, and the permeability is low, with an average permeability of 22.4mD. The production has increased significantly after fracturing, but it decays rapidly; most of the crude oil remains in the micro-cracks of the formation or in the matrix, and low-permeability production-increasing measures are needed to increase the production of the oil wells. The fractures in the whole area are obviously developed in the east-west direction, and the fractures are close to the oil production wells, which can easily cause water or high water content in the oil production wells, and there is a certain water sensitivity. The relevant information of a block in Daqing Oilfield is shown in Table 2, and the well location map of Oil Well 1 is shown in Figure 3The production curve of oil well 1 before and after using the oil displacement agent prepared in Example 3 is shown in Figure 4 ; The well location map of oil well 2 is shown in Figure 5 The production curve of oil well 2 before and after using comparative example 5, i.e., the petroleum sulfonate flooding agent commonly used in the industry, is shown in FIG. Figure 6 .

[0079] Table 2. Relevant information of a block in Daqing Oilfield

[0080]

[0081] In view of the reservoir characteristics of low porosity and ultra-low permeability, poor well connectivity, high water content, and water sensitivity, the two wells on site were designed to adopt the technical model of "core-shell nano-adjustment and flooding + anti-swelling + infiltration and absorption nano-oil flooding", with a design volume of >1000m³, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 6 It can be seen that after the oil displacement agent prepared by Example 3 of the present invention was used to treat oil well 1, the daily oil production increased from less than 1t / d to more than 8t / d at most, and the water content was significantly reduced. The daily liquid production, i.e., the actual liquid production of the oil field, including the total amount of liquid such as oil and water, was significantly improved. After the oil well 2 was treated with petroleum sulfonate commonly used in the industry, the daily oil production increased, but did not exceed 2t / d. That is, the oil displacement agent prepared by the present invention improves the recovery rate and is superior to the oil displacement agent in the prior art.

[0082] 2. Application in a certain oil field in Changqing

[0083] Reservoir background: The selected horizontal test well was put into production in December 2013, with an initial daily production of 21.28m 3 , daily oil production 12.24t, water content 31.5%, dynamic liquid level 991m, natural energy development; daily liquid production before measures 1.1m 3 , daily oil production of 0.25t, water content of 32.6%, dynamic liquid level of 1842m, salt content of 28733mg / L, cumulative oil production of 6077t.
