Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oilfield chemicals, in particular to an environmentally friendly temperature-resistant and salt-resistant liquid lubricating plugging agent for drilling fluid. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing expansion of the exploration and development field, the drilling strata are constantly deepening, the drilling methods are constantly being refurbished, and the difficulty of drilling is also increasing year by year. The number of special wells such as deep wells, ultra-deep wells, directional wells, horizontal wells, large displacement wells, small borehole wells, high-density long open hole wells, etc. is increasing. At the same time, the requirements for drilling speed have been greatly improved, and complex situations underground have occurred more frequently. During the drilling process, power equipment such as diesel engines and gas turbines have their own fixed power. The torque that the drill string bears during the rotation process is limited, and the stability of the well wall (especially the shale formation) is poor. If the drilling fluid used does not have good lubrication properties, the rotation resistance will increase during the process of drilling and normal drilling, resulting in a stuck drill. In addition, when the rotation resistance of the drill tool exceeds the load, it may cause the drill tool to break, increasing unnecessary drilling costs. If the drilling fluid has good lubricity, it can not only extend the service life of drilling accessories such as drill bits and drilling tools, but also effectively prevent the occurrence of complex underground accidents such as stuck drill and well wall instability. In addition to the working conditions, the main factors affecting the lubricity of drilling fluids are the use of lubricants. If no human and treatment agents and weighting agents, i.e., clean water, are added to the water-based drilling fluid, it will show a large friction resistance. However, after adding a small amount of lubricants (mainly anionic surfactants) relative to other treatment agents, the lubrication performance of the drilling fluid (clean water) will be greatly improved, which is specifically manifested in the reduction of the rotary torque value of the drill tool. Therefore, in order to make the drilling fluid have good lubricity that meets the use requirements, the use of lubricants is the most effective way.

[0003] Since the 1990s, drilling fluid systems with environmental protection performance have been developed successively at home and abroad. However, these drilling fluid systems have not been promoted and applied due to high costs or unsatisfactory application effects. Some newly developed environmentally friendly drilling fluids are difficult to achieve industrial production due to the complex synthesis process of additives. Therefore, according to the needs of on-site production, it is urgent to develop a new high-temperature resistant and environmentally friendly drilling fluid system that integrates environmental protection and oil and gas layer protection functions, has an acceptable cost, a relatively simple synthesis process, and can meet the requirements of drilling projects.

It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0015] An environmentally friendly temperature-resistant and salt-resistant liquid lubricating plugging agent for drilling fluid, the raw material mass ratio is base oil: emulsifier = (60-90): (10-40), the two are mixed evenly in proportion, and reacted at 80-95°C for 2-6h to obtain the lubricant.

[0016] Specifically, the mass ratio of base oil:emulsifier in the lubricant is any one of 60:10, 60:20, 60:30, 60:40, 70:10, 70:20, 70:30, 70:40, 80:10, 80:20, 80:30, 80:40, 90:10, 90:20, 90:30, and 90:40.

[0017] The emulsifier is one or a mixture of monoglyceride, diglyceride and polyol ester.

[0018] The base oil is 20-50% cycloparaffin oil. The base oil is specifically a mixture of one or more of the diesel fraction between 200-350°C at atmospheric distillation, atmospheric gas oil, 350-500°C lubricating oil fraction, vacuum gas oil and industrial products thereof. The vacuum gas oil and industrial products thereof are specifically a mixture of one or more of national standard white oil, national standard diesel, non-national standard white oil and non-national standard diesel.

[0019] According to the standard, technical index evaluation, freshwater slurry and salt water slurry high temperature performance evaluation were carried out respectively, the liquid lubricant of the present invention was selected as an example, and a certain liquid lubricant on the market was purchased as a comparative example, and the comparison results are shown in Table 1. The raw material ratio of the lubricant in the example is base oil: emulsifier = 80:20, the base oil is No. 3 national standard white oil, and the emulsifier is diglyceride.

[0021]

[0022] It can be seen from Table 1 that the lubricant of the embodiment is better than the lubricant of the comparative example in reducing the lubrication coefficient of fresh water slurry and the mud cake adhesion coefficient.

[0023] The lubricant described in the embodiment was evaluated for technical indicators according to the Q / GWDC0186-2021 standard (in compliance with Q / SY17088-2016).

[0024] Table 2 Technical index evaluation table

[0025]

[0026] According to Table 2, after inspection by a third-party quality inspection agency with CMA and CNAS dual quality management systems, the lubrication coefficient reduction rate is above 85%, and it has excellent extreme pressure lubrication effect.

[0027] The effects of the examples and comparative examples of the same price on the rheological properties of the base slurry and the improvement of lubricity were compared and evaluated in the KCl system and silicone system well slurries.

[0028] 1, with KCl system well slurry (KCl content of 5%) as the base, adding 2.33% of the embodiment lubricant as the experimental group 1, adding 3% of the comparative example lubricant as the control group 1, and pure well slurry as the blank group 1, the performance before and after rolling aging at 120°C for 16h was tested respectively, and the specific test results are shown in Table 3.

[0030]

[0031] 2. With the organic silicon system well slurry as the base, 2.33% of the embodiment lubricant was added as the experimental group 2, 3% of the comparative example lubricant was added as the control group 2, and the pure well slurry was the blank group 2. The performance was tested before and after rolling aging for 16 hours at 20°C. The specific test results are shown in Table 4.

[0033]

[0034] In the KCl system and the organosilicon system well slurry, there is no significant difference in rheological properties between the example lubricant and the comparative example lubricant of the same price. In terms of lubrication performance, the example lubricant has better lubricity than the comparative example lubricant.
