Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of oilfield chemical technology, and particularly relates to a high-temperature-resistant cross-linked polymer for drilling fluid, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the increase of world energy demand and the development of drilling technology, deep and ultra-deep oil and gas has become an important replacement energy source in the world. 60% of the world's new oil and gas reserves come from deep, while China still has a large amount of deep oil and gas to be explored and developed. Therefore, it is inevitable to search for oil and gas in the deep strata. The drilling depth in China has reached 9000 meters, the bottom hole temperature is 180-260℃, and there is a large section of salt and gypsum layer in most areas, which puts higher requirements on the performance of drilling fluid treatment agents.

[0003] The (low) solid-phase-free drilling fluid system has good carrying and suspending capacity of cuttings due to low solid content, and can also play a good lubricating and drag-reducing role, and has been widely used in oilfield drilling operations. In the drilling process, in order to maintain the rheological property of the drilling fluid system, a cross-linked polymer is usually added to increase the viscosity of the drilling fluid system. The cross-linked polymer is a kind of treatment agent with large dosage in drilling and completion fluid, which is usually high-molecular polymerization, characterized by long molecular chain and good water solubility. In addition to the viscosity-increasing effect, the cross-linked polymer often also serves as shale inhibitor (coating agent), fluid loss additive and flow pattern modifier, etc. Therefore, the use of cross-linked polymer is often beneficial to improving the rheological property of drilling fluid and stabilizing the well wall.

[0004] In the prior art, CN102127401A discloses a high-temperature-resistant cross-linked polymer for drilling fluid and a preparation method thereof, which is prepared by mixing starch, guar gum, alkaline hydroxide, epoxide and alcohol solvent in a certain proportion, and then through stirring, drying, crushing and other processes. The temperature resistance of the product in fresh water drilling fluid can reach 150℃, and the temperature resistance in seawater drilling fluid can reach 140℃. CN101955564A discloses a preparation method of a high-temperature-resistant and salt-resistant cross-linked polymer for drilling fluid, which is prepared by polymerization of 2-acrylamide-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid, acrylic acid and acrylamide as raw materials by aqueous solution polymerization. The cross-linked polymer has good stability at a formation temperature of 150℃, and still has a certain effect in a 10% salt water solution, and has strong salt resistance. CN114805680A discloses an environmentally friendly high-temperature-resistant and salt-resistant cross-linked polymer for water-based drilling fluid, a preparation method and application thereof. The water-soluble high-temperature-resistant polymer cross-linked polymer with a certain network structure is prepared by inverse emulsion polymerization, and the obtained cross-linked polymer has excellent viscosity-increasing performance for water-based drilling fluid at a high temperature of 180℃ and is non-toxic and easy to biodegrade.

[0005] It is evident that the temperature resistance of domestically produced high-temperature crosslinking polymer products is typically around 150–180℃, and this resistance is further reduced when the system has a high degree of mineralization (especially Ca). 2+ Concentration higher than 1.4 × 10 4 When the concentration of cross-linked polymers (mg / L) is low, molecular chain coiling and entanglement can occur, leading to product failure. Conventional aqueous solution polymerization methods have certain limitations. There is an urgent need in this field to develop a cross-linked polymer product that can maintain good performance under high temperature and high salt conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Currently, existing technologies for improving the performance of crosslinked polymers primarily focus on the selection of monomer structures. However, the highest temperature resistance of current high-temperature crosslinked polymer products is only around 180°C, and their salt resistance is relatively poor, leaving room for further improvement in practical applications. This application discovers that by optimizing the crosslinking system, the thermal stability of the product can be enhanced while simultaneously improving its salt resistance.

[0021] In a second aspect, the application further provides a preparation method of the cross-linked polymer, comprising: using a sulfonic acid group monomer and an acrylamide monomer as raw materials, and preparing the cross-linked polymer through secondary cross-linking.

[0022] wherein the first cross-linking agent used in the first cross-linking is 1,4-divinylbenzene; and the second cross-linking agent used in the second cross-linking is one or more of dihaloalkanes.

[0023] The application finds that the use of 1,4-divinylbenzene with a rigid benzene ring structure for the preliminary cross-linking of a sulfonic acid group monomer and an acrylamide monomer, in combination with the secondary cross-linking of the secondary amine groups in the polymer through alkylation reaction of dihaloalkanes, can significantly improve the cross-linking strength, enhance the thermal stability of the cross-linked polymer, effectively inhibit the curling of the molecular chain under high salt conditions, and improve the salt resistance of the product.

[0120] In order to further illustrate the technical effects of the present application, the effect tests of the above examples and comparative examples in actual application are also given.

[0121] Test Example

[0122] 1. Viscosity and temperature resistance test

[0123] Preparation of polymer solution: 3.5 g of the crosslinked polymer prepared in the examples and comparative examples was added to 350 mL of deionized water, and stirred at 8000 r / min for 20 min to obtain a polymer solution sample.

[0124] Performance test: The apparent viscosity of the polymer solution was determined at room temperature by a six-speed viscometer according to the method specified in the national standard GB / T 16783.1-2006. After the determination, the polymer solution was transferred to a high-temperature roller oven and aged at 180℃ for 16 h. After the aging was completed, the solution temperature was reduced to room temperature, and then the polymer solution was stirred at 8000 r / min for 20 min to determine the apparent viscosity of the aged polymer solution. The apparent viscosity data before and after aging are shown in Table 1.

[0127] 2. Salt resistance test

[0128] Preparation of polymer saturated salt solution: Under stirring at room temperature, NaCl was continuously added to 350 mL of deionized water until the solution could no longer dissolve NaCl, and a saturated NaCl solution was obtained. 3.5 mL of the polymer sample was added to 350 mL of the saturated NaCl solution, and stirred at 8000 r / min for 20 min to obtain a polymer saturated NaCl solution. The preparation method of the polymer saturated CaCl2 solution is the same as that of the polymer saturated NaCl solution.

[0129] Performance test: The apparent viscosity of polymer solution was measured at room temperature by six-speed viscometer according to the method specified in GB / T 16783.1-2006. After the measurement, the polymer solution was transferred to a high-temperature roller oven and aged at 180℃ for 16h. After the aging, the apparent viscosity of the polymer solution after aging was measured after the solution temperature was reduced to room temperature and stirred at 8000r / min for 20min. The apparent viscosity data of the polymer saturated NaCl solution and the polymer saturated CaCl2 solution before and after aging are listed in Table 2 and Table 3, respectively.

[0133]

[0134]

[0135] As can be seen from the data in Tables 1-3, the crosslinked polymer prepared in the present application has excellent tackifying, salt-resistant and gel strength-improving properties, and still has a high viscosity retention rate after aging at 180℃ for 16h. The polymer can maintain good tackifying properties in saturated salt solution, and the apparent viscosity of the solution after aging is much higher than that in the comparative examples. In addition, the shear force of the polymer aqueous solution remains at a high level before and after aging, indicating that the crosslinked polymer prepared in the present application has good proppant-carrying properties.

[0136] Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit it; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing examples, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing examples, or make equivalent replacement for part of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
