Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of oil field chemical industry, and particularly relates to a filtrate reducer and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous increase of energy demand in China, the dependence on foreign oil is increasing, and the energy situation is severe. Deep and ultra-deep oil and gas has become the focus of development. As an important part of drilling engineering, the performance of drilling fluid directly affects the drilling cost and drilling cycle of deep and ultra-deep wells. At present, the bottom hole temperature of deep wells in China can reach more than 200℃, and there are many salt-containing formations in deep formations. The high temperature and high salt environment of deep wells easily leads to the deterioration of the performance of drilling fluid, and it is difficult to meet the needs of safe drilling. Therefore, temperature-resistant and salt-resistant drilling fluid is a key technology for deep formation drilling, and plays an irreplaceable important role in the exploration and development of deep and ultra-deep oil and gas resources.

[0003] In the drilling process, the invasion of drilling fluid filtrate into the formation will cause shale hydration and swelling, resulting in reservoir damage, and even leading to wellbore instability and other downhole complex accidents. The filtrate reducer is the core treatment agent to ensure the stability of the performance of the drilling fluid. The mechanism of the filtrate reducer generally has the following types: (1) the filtrate reducer is adsorbed on the surface of clay particles to prevent the flocculation of clay particles, so that the clay becomes fine particles, which is beneficial to form a more dense mud cake and reduce the water loss; (2) the hydration group of the filtrate reducer can thicken the hydration film of the clay particles, and reduce the permeability of the mud cake; (3) the fine particles of the filtrate reducer can enter the gap of the mud cake, and block the micro-pore cracks of the mud cake, so that the mud cake is thin and dense; (4) the filtrate reducer can appropriately increase the viscosity of the drilling fluid, so that the filtrate is difficult to penetrate out of the mud cake, and the permeability is reduced.

[0004] At present, the high-temperature-resistant filtrate reducer is mainly composed of synthetic polymers, and the related products have certain temperature-resistant and salt-resistant ability. However, with the development of deep well drilling, the actual bottom hole working temperature is continuously rising, and the probability of drilling complex formations is increasing, which leads to the unsatisfactory performance of the filtrate reducer in deep well drilling. The temperature-resistant and salt-resistant performance of the filtrate reducer still cannot meet the actual needs, so it is very urgent to develop a new type of polymer filtrate reducer with better performance. Traditional polymer filtrate reducers are generally based on 2-acrylamide-2-methyl 1-propane sulfonic acid (AMPS), N-vinyl pyrrolidone (NVP) and other monomers, and are prepared by aqueous solution polymerization. Such polymers are linear polymers, and have limited high-temperature resistance. In addition, they have the disadvantages of high viscosity, easy chain breaking at high temperature, weak anti-degradation ability, and are difficult to meet the needs of rheological property and filtration loss control of drilling fluid under the conditions of deep well high temperature and high salt. Therefore, the polymer filtrate reducer with non-linear branched and cross-linked structure has gradually become a research hotspot.

[0005] CN114773539A discloses a water-based drilling fluid with high-temperature-resistant and high-salt-resistant micro-crosslinking hydrophobic association viscosity-increasing and filtration-reducing agent and a preparation method thereof; the viscosity-increasing and filtration-reducing agent is prepared by copolymerization of comonomers, crosslinking agents, cosolvents and initiators in water; the comonomers include vinyl monomers, sodium styrene sulfonate, maleic anhydride and long hydrophobic chain ester monomers; the filtration-reducing agent effectively reduces the filtration loss of drilling fluid, improves the viscosity of drilling fluid and maintains the rheological stability of drilling fluid under high-temperature and high-salt conditions, and can be applied to deep high-salt formation oil and gas drilling.

[0006] CN111285964A discloses a temperature-resistant and salt-resistant micro-crosslinking filtration-reducing agent for drilling fluid and a preparation method thereof, which is prepared by using appropriate crosslinking agents and chain transfer agents to generate a micro-crosslinking filtration-reducing agent, and has the following advantages: containing crosslinked microsphere structures, which can effectively reduce the filtration loss of drilling fluid; containing various temperature-resistant and adsorption groups, which have excellent temperature-resistant and salt-resistant properties; and having a relatively low molecular weight, which has a small influence on the rheological properties of drilling fluid.

[0007] CN116063623A discloses a preparation method of an ultrabranched polymer for drilling fluid, which comprises copolymerization of organic acid monomers, organic amide monomers, a first branching agent, a second branching agent and a chain transfer agent under the action of a pH regulator and a chain transfer agent to obtain an ultrabranched polymer for drilling fluid; the reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization method provided by the application adopts a rapid polymerization process, uses diene monomers, branching agents and chain transfer agents to prepare water-soluble snowflake-like ultrabranched polymer filtration-reducing agents in an aqueous solution system at a high polymerization rate and high conversion, and the filtration-reducing agents have a double-layer branched structure, good solubility, high rheological properties, no crosslinking, a large number of branched end groups, a narrow molecular weight distribution and good temperature resistance, and have a low viscosity effect.

[0008] The prior art generally prepares a non-linear filtration-reducing agent by introducing functional monomers into the filtration-reducing agent molecules or using crosslinking agents, and in order to avoid excessive viscosity-increasing effect of the filtration-reducing agent, an additive or a chain transfer agent is generally used in the polymerization process, and the preparation process is complex and the cost is relatively high. Therefore, it is necessary to design the raw materials for preparing the filtration-reducing agent, so that the filtration-reducing agent with a micro-crosslinking structure can be obtained by simple preparation of raw materials without affecting the viscosity effect of the filtration-reducing agent, to meet the needs of the development of current temperature-resistant and salt-resistant drilling fluid technology.

[0146] It can be known from the comparison of the salt water experimental slurry 1 and the salt water experimental slurry 11 that the filtration loss values of the salt water experimental slurry 1 before and after aging are lower, and the temperature resistance and salt resistance of the salt water experimental slurry 1 are obviously better than those of the salt water experimental slurry 11, and the introduction of the crosslinking agent is beneficial to improving the temperature resistance and salt resistance of the filtrate reducer.

Therefore, the fresh water experimental slurry and the salt water experimental slurry using the filtrate reducer provided by the application have good rheological properties and filtrate reduction effect, and the performance remains stable after 16 hours of hot rolling aging at 240 DEG C, which is obviously better than the similar filtrate reducer Driscal D.
