Existing technologies are difficult to maintain stability in high-temperature environments.

Method used

A core-shell slow-release thickener is designed. By introducing high-temperature resistant hydrophobic side chains and wrapping them in a polymer shell with certain temperature resistance, a core-shell structure is formed, and the core thickener is slowly released to solve the low-temperature thickening problem.

Benefits of technology

Above 90°C, the shell material decomposes and slowly releases the core viscosity enhancer to avoid thickening at low temperatures. The maximum temperature resistance reaches 210°C, meeting the high-temperature construction environment. The static density difference of the cement slurry is less than 0.03g/cm3.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oilfield chemistry, and in particular to a core-shell slow-release tackifier, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] As oil exploration and development continues to advance toward deep and ultra-deep wells, high-temperature, high-pressure formation environments have become an inevitable challenge for cementing projects. High temperatures intensify the Brownian motion of cement particles, leading to a decrease in viscosity and subsequent sedimentation. High-temperature, high-pressure environments often require high-density cement slurries containing large amounts of weighting materials such as iron powder, making sedimentation stability difficult to control. Excessive retarder additions in high-temperature environments often lead to increased dispersion in the slurry, further compromising sedimentation stability.

[0003] Currently, on-site construction often uses methods such as reducing the water-cement ratio and reducing the amount of retarders and dispersants to improve the high-temperature stability of cement slurries. However, this method can result in excessively high initial viscosity, hindering proper pumping of the slurry. Researchers have found that optimizing the particle size composition of the solid phase in the cement slurry and increasing the solid content per unit volume can improve slurry stability. However, this method is costly and complex, and is difficult to implement due to limitations in cementing materials and site requirements. It also has certain limitations in improving the settling stability of cement slurries. In addition, the addition of inorganic suspension stabilizers, including silica fume, metakaolin, hollow microspheres, microsilica, fine sand, volcanic ash, lime, mineral fillers, clay, and nanomaterials, can improve slurry suspension stability. However, the addition of some inorganic materials can negatively impact the strength development of the cement paste. Furthermore, polymer stabilizers are currently widely used and offer excellent suspension stability. However, polymer viscosity enhancers tend to thicken the slurry at low temperatures, making it difficult to pump. At high temperatures, polymer materials decompose, thinning the slurry (thickening at low temperatures and thinning at high temperatures), but this still fails to solve the problem of settlement instability in high-temperature, high-density cement slurries. Therefore, the development of intelligent thickeners that "do not thicken at low temperatures but increase viscosity at high temperatures" is urgent.

[0004] At present, there are very few domestic sedimentation stabilizer products, most of which have a temperature resistance of around 150°C, and begin to have a viscosity-increasing effect at low temperatures, resulting in poor overall performance of cement slurry with the addition of sedimentation stabilizers.

[0005] Li Xiaolin and others designed and developed a new type of thermal viscosity-increasing copolymer containing hydrophobic monomers, and developed a high-temperature stabilizer for high-density cement slurry based on the thermal viscosity-increasing copolymer. The apparent viscosity of the thermal viscosity-increasing copolymer solution gradually increases with increasing temperature, reaching a maximum value at 1151125℃. As the temperature continues to rise, the apparent viscosity decreases slightly, but the apparent viscosity at 150℃ can still be maintained at 214 times the initial apparent viscosity, showing a good thermal viscosity-increasing effect. 1% thermal viscosity-increasing copolymer was introduced into 2.50g / cm 3In high-density cement slurry, the density difference of cement slurry at 150℃ is 0.58g / cm 3 , reduced to 0.07g / cm 3 , the density difference of cement stone is reduced to 0.08g / cm 3 The comprehensive performance can meet the requirements of on-site construction. However, the system has a temperature resistance of only 150°C, which is far from the actual ultra-high temperature target, and the polymer has a certain viscosity at low temperatures. For details, see [Li Xiaolin, Li Jianhua, Yang Hongbin, et al. High-temperature stabilizer for high-density cement slurry based on thermal viscosity-increasing copolymer [J]. Drilling Fluids and Completion Fluids, 2022, 39(1): 76-81.]

[0006] Xiong Zhengqiang et al. proposed using hectorite as an ultra-high-temperature viscosifier for water-based drilling fluids. Experimental results revealed that synthetic hectorite H-6 exhibits excellent viscosifying properties and thermal stability, with a temperature resistance of up to 240°C. Its high-temperature viscosifying performance surpasses existing domestic and international high-temperature viscosifiers. When 1% H-6 was added to a 4% sodium bentonite-based slurry, the apparent viscosity of the slurry before and after aging at 240°C for 16 hours remained at 16.5 mPa·s. However, a sodium bentonite-based slurry containing 1% high-temperature viscosifier HE300 exhibited a viscosity reduction of over 92% after aging at 240°C for 16 hours. These results demonstrate that synthetic hectorite exhibits good compatibility with other treatment agents, making it suitable for use as an ultra-high-temperature viscosifier and promising for application in ultra-high-temperature water-based drilling fluids. However, no research has been conducted on its use in high-temperature cement slurries. For details, see [Xiong Zhengqiang, Li Xiaodong, Fu Fan, et al. Experimental study on the use of synthetic hectorite as a viscosifier for ultra-high temperature water-based drilling fluids [J]. Drilling Fluids and Completion Fluids, 2018, 35(5): 19-25.]

[0007] Chinese patent CN106967397B discloses a hydrophobically modified cellulose thermal thickener. Cellulose is dissolved in an alkaline solution, stirred evenly, and a soluble salt is added to precipitate the high-molecular-weight cellulose. Alkylene oxide is then added for etherification, and the product is then hydrophobically modified with a long-chain halogenated alkane to produce the hydrophobically modified cellulose thermal thickener. This product exhibits a viscosity-increasing effect at around 40°C. The system was tested at a temperature of 150°C and a water-cement ratio of 0.4, which is a conventional density system. High-temperature, high-density systems are difficult to achieve.

[0008] Chinese patent CN108586671B discloses an anionic thermally thickening water-soluble polymer and its preparation method. Using acrylamide, acrylic acid, and Pluronic triblock polymers for inverse emulsion polymerization, the molecular weight of the thermally thickening polymer is increased by the high reactivity of acrylamide and inverse emulsion polymerization, resulting in a significant thermally thickening effect at low concentrations, which can reduce application costs. The resulting polymer emulsion dissolves significantly faster than the polymer powder. After a small amount of inverse agent is added to the resulting emulsion dilution, it exhibits strong thermally thickening behavior. As the amount of inverse agent added increases, the emulsion dilution exhibits different thermally thickening behaviors. However, the viscosity of the thickener begins to increase at around 40°C, which makes low-temperature pumping difficult.

[0009] Chinese patent document CN115872647A discloses a suspension stabilizer, which is a composite calcined product made of attapulgite, sepiolite and nano-silica. The operating temperature of the stabilizer is 30°C to 1180°C, indicating that it begins to increase viscosity at low temperatures, which is not conducive to the pumping of cement slurry, and cannot be used at high temperatures (>200°C).

[0010] At present, the existing literature on cement slurry thickeners all have application environments below 200°C, and the problem of low-temperature thickening has not been solved. Summary of the Invention

[0122] In order to further illustrate the performance of the core-shell sustained-release tackifiers prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-4 of the present invention, the following tests were performed.

[0123] (1) The core-shell sustained-release tackifiers D11D6 and M11M4 prepared in Examples 1-6 of the present invention and Comparative Examples 1-4 were respectively subjected to a thermogravimetric analyzer ATS-TGA-1200Q produced by Shanghai Aitisen Instrument Technology Co., Ltd. The samples were heated from room temperature to 300° C. at a heating rate of 10° C. / min under a nitrogen atmosphere. The test environment was consistent. The thermogravimetric curves of the core-shell sustained-release tackifiers D11D6 and M1 to M4 prepared in Examples 1-6 of the present invention and Comparative Examples 1-4 were recorded as follows: Figure 5 and Figure 6 .

[0124] from Figure 5 and Figure 6 It can be seen that the core-shell slow-release thickeners D11D6 gradually decomposed with the increase of temperature, and both showed two obvious weight losses. Taking D1 as an example, when the temperature rose to 90°C, the thickener began to lose weight for the first time, indicating that the shell polystyrene began to decompose and lose weight. As the temperature continued to rise, the core material gradually decomposed. When the temperature rose to 300°C, 80% of the mass of the core-shell slow-release thickener had not been decomposed, indicating that the core-shell slow-release thickener had good high temperature resistance.

[0125] However, when the temperature rises to 60°C, comparative examples M1 and M2 begin to lose weight, indicating that the core material gradually decomposes. When the temperature rises to 300°C, only 40% of the mass of the core-shell sustained-release thickener is not decomposed, indicating that the unmodified or non-core-shell thickener has insufficient high temperature resistance. In addition, when the monomer ratio in the core-shell sustained-release thickener exceeds or falls below the specified range, the temperature resistance of the thickener also decreases (M3 and M4).

[0126] (2) Cement slurry preparation

[0127] Based on the mass of the dry powder of oil well cement, the solid phase and liquid phase to be added were weighed and the cement slurry was prepared according to the API standard (American Petroleum Institute). The solid phase and the liquid phase were mixed evenly before preparation. The weighed liquid phase was poured into the mixer and the speed was set to 4000 r / min. -1 Pour the weighed solid phase into the mixer within 15 seconds and then adjust the mixer speed to 12000 r / min. -1 , continue stirring for 35s.

[0128] 1. Sedimentation stability test

[0129] First, set the target temperature of the pressurized viscosifier to 210°C, the target pressure to 90 MPa, and the heating time to 90 minutes. Immediately place the prepared cement slurry into the pressurized viscosifier's kettle. Once the temperature and pressure reach the target values, continue stirring the slurry at the set temperature and pressure for 30 minutes. Slowly release the pressure. Once the temperature drops to 90°C, remove the slurry cup from the viscosifier and remove any residual oil from the upper layer of the slurry using a syringe or paper towel. Then, use a densitometer to measure the density of the upper, middle, and lower portions of the slurry cup.

[0158] Table 1 Test results of cement slurry properties described in Test Examples 1-14

[0159]

[0160] It can be seen from the results in Table 1 that when the core-shell sustained-release thickener prepared by the present invention is not added (C9), the density is 2.5 g / cm 3 The cement slurry settled seriously after high temperature curing, and the density difference between the upper and lower parts reached 0.4g / cm 3 The density difference of the cement slurry system with the core-shell slow-release tackifier prepared in Examples 1-6 of the present invention was improved, and the density difference after curing was less than 0.03 g / cm 3 When the addition amount of the core-shell slow-release tackifier of the present invention reaches 5wt%, the cement slurry system has basically no sedimentation; In addition, the density is 2.2g / cm 3 The cement slurry system (C10) has no settlement after curing and has good stability;

[0161] However, the cement slurry systems to which the viscosity enhancers M1 to M4 prepared in Comparative Examples 1 to 4 of the present invention were added had poor temperature resistance and decomposed prematurely, resulting in poor slurry sedimentation stability.

[0162] 2. Thickening curve test

[0163] The cement slurry preparation complies with API standards, with the target temperature of the pressurized thickener being 210°C, the target pressure being 90 MPa, and the heating time being 90 min.

[0164] Cement slurry thickening performance testing was conducted in accordance with the test requirements of GB / T 19139-2012, "Test Methods for Oil Well Cement." The prepared cement slurry was poured into the cylindrical rotating slurry cup of the pressurized viscometer. After ensuring a tight seal, the target temperature and pressure were set. During the test, the slurry cup rotated at 150 (±15) r / min, and the instrument measured its torque to generate the cement slurry's consistency curve.

[0165] The thickening curves of the core-shell sustained-release thickener D1 prepared in Example 1 of the present invention with and without the addition of the core-shell sustained-release thickener D1 are shown in FIG. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the thickening curve of the cement slurry system (C9) without the core-shell slow-release tackifier D1 prepared in Example 1 gradually decreases with increasing temperature, and the viscosity decreases significantly; the thickening curve of the cement slurry system (C7) with the core-shell slow-release tackifier D1 prepared in Example 1 does not change significantly with increasing temperature, indicating that the core material has a significant viscosity-enhancing effect at this temperature, and the core-shell slow-release tackifier D1 can withstand a temperature of 210°C, which is consistent with the results of the thermogravimetric curve.

[0166] The thickening curve of the cement slurry system (C11) to which the layered tackifier M1 prepared in Comparative Example 1 of the present invention is added is as follows: Figure 9As shown in the thickening curve of the cement slurry system (C11) with the thickener M1 described in Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the initial viscosity of the thickening curve after adding M1 is too high, resulting in an unstable thickening curve. Therefore, it is easy to decompose without a shell structure and has poor temperature resistance.
