Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oilfield chemistry, and in particular relates to a composition and a fracturing fluid containing the composition. Background Art

[0002] Tight, low-permeability, water-bearing gas reservoirs require hydraulic fracturing to achieve commercial production. However, water-control fracturing and increasing gas well production in water-bearing reservoirs have long been a technical challenge in oil and gas field development. For reservoirs with bottom water layers, artificial fractures can potentially connect to the bottom water layer, increasing the water content in the gas well. For reservoirs with both gas and water layers, formation water can clog tiny rock pores, causing a water lock effect and impacting gas well production. Several approaches are currently being considered to address these challenges in water-control fracturing: First, water-control fracturing is achieved by controlling fracturing parameters and fracture geometry to avoid aquifers. Second, water-control fracturing is achieved by reducing the flow capacity of formation water within fractures. Third, water-control fracturing is achieved by creating artificial barriers to control bottom water coning and thus control water production in oil and gas wells. Fourth, water production is controlled by adjusting reservoir rock wettability to reduce water permeability. Among these, controlling water production in oil and gas wells by adjusting reservoir rock wettability and reducing water permeability is the most widely used approach.

[0003] Although water-controlled fracturing technology has been researched both domestically and internationally in various aspects, including fracturing design, fracturing fluids, proppants, and temporary plugging agents, it still faces significant challenges due to the complexity of reservoir rocks and fluids. Once formation water continuously flows into artificial fractures, there is a high probability that the gas production of the gas well will drop significantly. Therefore, reducing the flow capacity of formation water in reservoir rocks without changing the flow capacity of natural gas is the key to water-controlled fracturing technology. Existing technologies mainly reduce the ability of formation water to flow into fractures and wellbores by changing the wettability of reservoir rocks, but there are problems such as difficulty in fluid entry into the reservoir and limited ability to change reservoir wettability.

[0182] Experimental evaluation

[0183] 1. Determination of fracturing fluid performance parameters

[0184] The emulsion droplet size, surface tension, and stable storage time of the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 were measured at room temperature (25° C.) before and after pH adjustment. The specific method is as follows:

[0185] i. Determination of the droplet size of the fracturing fluid emulsion: The droplet size of the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 before and after pH adjustment was measured using a Malvin MasterSizer 3000 laser particle size analyzer.

[0186] ii. Determination of surface tension of fracturing fluid: The surface tension of the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 before and after pH adjustment was measured using a JYW-200 surface tension meter.

[0187] ⅲ Determination of stable storage time of fracturing fluid: The fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 were placed for 30 days before and after pH adjustment, respectively. The state of the fracturing fluids was observed every day. The number of days on which stratification or solid insoluble matter was observed in the fracturing fluids was the stable storage time of the fracturing fluids.

[0188] See Table 1 for specific results.

[0189] Table 1. Fracturing fluid performance parameters

[0190]

[0191] As can be seen from Table 1, the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 have smaller droplet size, lower interfacial tension, and longer stable storage time before and after pH adjustment: the average droplet size of the fracturing fluids before and after pH adjustment is 90 nm to 158 nm and 81 nm to 169 nm, respectively. After pH adjustment, the droplet size of the fracturing fluids is still small and easy to inject into the reservoir; the surface tension of the fracturing fluids before and after pH adjustment is 25.3 mN·m -1 Up to 28.8 mN·m -1 , 20.4mN·m -1 Up to 26.4 mN·m -1 After adjusting the pH, the fracturing fluid still has a strong wetting and modification ability; before adjusting the pH, the fracturing fluid can be stably stored for more than 30 days. After adjusting the pH, the fracturing fluid can still be stably stored for 4 to 6 days. The storage time will not be too short, and it is easy to operate in actual use.

[0192] 2. Fracturing fluid water control experiment

[0193] The fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 after pH adjustment were used to conduct water control experiments according to the following method, and the changes in the water phase permeability and gas phase permeability of the core after the injection of the fracturing fluid were measured.

[0194] a. Take a dry core with a permeability of 5 mD, measure the size and mass of the dry core and record it; evacuate the dry core and saturate it with a 2 wt % KCl aqueous solution. After saturation, wipe off the water on the surface of the core and weigh the wet core again after saturation with a 2 wt % KCl aqueous solution and record the mass;

[0195] b. The wet core obtained in a was loaded into the core flow test device, into which 10PV of 2wt% KCl aqueous solution was injected to measure the water permeability K W,1 ;

[0196] c. Inject nitrogen into the core that has completed step b until the gas flow at the core outlet is stable and measure the gas permeability K g,1 ;

[0197] d. Inject 10PV fracturing fluid into the core after completing step c, close the process, heat the core to 80°C, and maintain the constant temperature for 1 day;

[0198] e. Inject nitrogen into the core that has completed step d until the gas flow at the core outlet is stable and measure the gas permeability K g,2 ;

[0199] f. Inject 10PV of 2wt% KCl aqueous solution into the core to complete step e and measure the water permeability K W,2 .

[0200] The dimensionless fluid resistance ratio (NFRR) is calculated according to formula (1):

[0201] NFRR=(K W,1 / K W,2 ) / (K g,1 / K g,2 ) Formula (1)

[0202] The fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 after adjusting the pH were used to conduct water control experiments according to the above method, and the dimensionless fluid resistance ratio NFRR was calculated according to formula (1). The specific results are shown in Table 2.

[0203] Table 2. K in water control experiments W,1 , K W,2 , K g,1 , K g,2 and dimensionless fluid resistance ratio (NFRR)

[0204]

[0205]

[0206] It can be seen in Table 2 that after the pH-adjusted fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 were injected into the core, the water permeability increased from K W,1From 4.8219 to 5.9273mD down to K W,2 From 1.2983 to 2.1627mD, the water permeability decreased by 60% to 75%; the gas permeability increased from K g,1 From 19.1017 to 28.4622mD down to K g,2 The results show that the pH value of the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 can achieve the effect of blocking water without blocking gas. The pH value of the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 is 18.5743 to 26.3458 mD, and the gas permeability decreases by 2.7% to 7.8%. The water permeability decreases significantly, while the gas permeability decreases less. This proves that the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 after pH adjustment can achieve the effect of blocking water without blocking gas. Furthermore, the dimensionless fluid resistance ratio (NFRR) represents the ratio of the flow resistance of different fluids. When the NFRR value is greater than 1, it means that the fracturing fluid has a greater effect on reducing the water permeability than the gas permeability. The larger the NFRR value, the greater the flow resistance of the water phase. The NFRR values ​​of the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 after pH adjustment are 2.3465 to 3.7313, which proves that the fracturing fluids prepared in Examples 17 to 25 after pH adjustment can significantly and selectively reduce the water permeability without affecting the gas permeability. They can meet the requirements of water control fracturing technology for fracturing fluids and are applicable to water control fracturing.
