AI Technical Summary
Existing lubricants are prone to degradation under deep formation conditions of ultra-high temperature, ultra-high pressure, and ultra-high salt, and cannot effectively adsorb the surface of the drilling tool to form a lubricating film, resulting in excessive drilling friction resistance, reduced mechanical drilling speed, frequent obstacles to drilling, and even accidents such as breaking the drilling tool and falling drilling bits.
The anti-temperature and salt-resistant polyion liquid lubricant for water-based drilling fluid is prepared by free radical polymerization from 1-vinylpyridine-tetrafluoroborate ionic liquid, N-hydroxymethylacrylamide, (3-acrylamide propyl)trimethylammonium chloride and polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate to form a lubricant containing strong adsorption groups such as pyridinium cations, quaternary ammonium cations, hydroxyl groups, and can be closely adsorbed on the drill tool and mud cake surface under high temperature, high pressure and high salt conditions to form a dense lubricant film.
The lubricant can still effectively reduce the friction resistance between the drilling tool and the well wall at a high temperature of 220℃, reduce the risk of drilling, meet the safety and efficiency of drilling in deep formations, and has a low molecular weight that has little impact on the rheology performance of water-based drilling fluid and has good environmental protection.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of drilling, and particularly relates to a temperature- and salt-resistant polyionic liquid lubricant for water-based drilling fluids, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] As the "blood" of drilling engineering, drilling fluids have important functions such as carrying cuttings, balancing formation pressure, stabilizing the wellbore, lubricating and cooling the drill bit, and determine the success or failure of deep drilling. However, in deep formations, there are three ultra-complex and harsh conditions of "ultra-high temperature, ultra-high pressure, and ultra-high salinity". Existing lubricants are prone to degradation under such harsh conditions, cannot effectively adsorb on the surface of drill tools to form a lubricating film, and are difficult to effectively reduce the drilling friction. If the friction torque during drilling is too large, it will bring downhole complex problems such as reduced mechanical drilling speed and frequent sticking during tripping in and out of the hole. In severe cases, it may even lead to major accidents such as drill tool breakage, drill bit dropping, and wellbore abandonment, threatening drilling safety. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a lubricant with excellent high-temperature and high-salt resistance to support safe and efficient drilling in deep formations.
[0003] Existing lubricants can be divided into two categories: liquid lubricants and solid lubricants. Liquid lubricants mainly include mineral oils (such as crude oil, diesel, etc.), vegetable oils, polyol ethers, alkyl glycosides, etc. Although mineral oils have good lubrication effects, they have technical problems such as serious environmental pollution and high fluorescence, which limit their applications. Vegetable oils, ether alcohols, and alkyl glycosides have lower fluorescence and are more environmentally friendly than mineral oils, but they have the disadvantage of insufficient high-temperature resistance. Their high-temperature resistance can be improved through chemical modification. Chinese patent document CN111560238A discloses an environmentally friendly lubricant that synergistically exerts a lubricating effect through cationic alkyl glycosides and quaternized nano-silica, but its high-temperature resistance is only 120°C. Chinese patent document CN119193116A discloses a high-temperature-resistant drilling fluid lubricant, in which the modified alkyl glycoside contains an imidazole-type quaternary cation, an ester group, and a polycarbodiimide structure, and its high-temperature resistance reaches 190°C. Chinese patent document CN114686188A discloses a nucleoside phospholipid drilling fluid lubricant. By carrying out a ring-opening reaction of the epoxy bond with the phosphate group in nucleoside monophosphate, grafting amino groups and sulfonic acid groups, and introducing long fatty chains and sulfonic acid groups in the form of double phospholipids on the structure of nucleoside monophosphate, the high-temperature resistance of the lubricant reaches 150°C. Chinese patent document CN114644910A discloses a soybean lecithin lubricant modified by epichlorohydrin, amine, and nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds, and its high-temperature resistance can reach 150°C. Although there are various modification methods for alkyl glycosides and vegetable oils in the current prior art, their high-temperature resistance capabilities still do not reach 220°C. Although there is a rich variety of existing lubricants, their high-temperature and high-salt resistance performances are generally insufficient, and it is difficult to exert effective lubricating effects under high-temperature and high-salt conditions. There is an urgent need to develop a drilling fluid lubricant with high-temperature and high-salt resistance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the existing lubricants in terms of temperature and salt resistance, and the technical problem that it is difficult to effectively reduce friction and resistance under high temperature and high salt conditions, the present invention provides a temperature- and salt-resistant polyionic liquid lubricant for water-based drilling fluids, its preparation method and application. The lubricant of the present invention can withstand a temperature of 220 °C and is salt-resistant up to saturation, and has excellent temperature and salt resistance and lubrication performance.

[0061] Application test example
[0062] Preparation of fresh water-based mud: Add 400 mL of deionized water to a slurry cup, add 0.7 g of anhydrous sodium carbonate and 20.0 g of sodium-based bentonite, stir for 20 min under the condition of a stirring rate of 10000 r / min, stop stirring twice during the stirring process to scrape off the bentonite adhering to the stirring cup with a glass rod, and obtain fresh water-based mud after sealing and curing at room temperature for 24 h.
[0063] Preparation of saturated brine base slurry: 144 g of sodium chloride was added to 400 mL of fresh water base slurry and stirred at a rate of 10,000 r / min for 20 min to obtain saturated brine base slurry.
[0064] Drilling fluid preparation: 4 g of the lubricants of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-9 were respectively added to 400 mL of fresh water base slurry and stirred at a rate of 10,000 r / min for 20 min to obtain fresh water drilling fluids F1-F5 and DF1-DF9. According to the same method, 4 g of the lubricants of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-9 were added to 400 mL of saturated brine base slurry to prepare saturated brine drilling fluids SF1-SF5 and DSF1-DSF9.
[0065] 1. According to the petroleum and natural gas industry standard GB / T 29170-2012 "Petroleum and natural gas industry - Drilling fluid laboratory testing", the apparent viscosity (AV, mPa·s), plastic viscosity (PV, mPa·s), yield point (YP, Pa), and API filtration loss FL of drilling fluids F1-F5 and fresh water base slurry without lubricant before and after aging at 220°C for 16 h were measured. API (at 25°C, 100 psi), and the results are shown in Table 1.
[0066] Table 1. Drilling fluid performance test
[0067]
[0068] As can be seen from Table 1, after adding the lubricants A1-A5 of the present invention, the increase in the apparent viscosity and plastic viscosity of the drilling fluid before and after aging at 220°C is less than 5 mPa·s compared with the fresh water base slurry, the increase in shear force is less than 1.0 Pa, and the FL after aging at 220°C API is 38.8, 38.0, 37.2, 36.8, and 38.4 mL respectively, and the medium-pressure filtration loss is reduced compared with the fresh water base slurry without lubricant. The experimental results show that the high-temperature and high-salt resistant polyionic liquid lubricant of the present invention has a low molecular weight, has no obvious effect on the rheological properties of the drilling fluid, and is beneficial to reducing the filtration loss.
[0069] 2. Refer to the standard QSY 17088-2016 "Technical Specification for Liquid Lubricants for Drilling Fluids", and use the EP-2A extreme pressure lubrication tester to test the lubrication coefficients of fresh water drilling fluids F1-F5 and DF1-DF9 before and after aging at 220°C for 16 hours. During the test, the stainless steel ring of the extreme pressure lubrication tester will simulate the drill string, apply a certain load to it, and press it tightly against the stainless steel block acting as the wellbore wall. Both the stainless steel ring and the stainless steel block are immersed in the drilling fluid sample. Use the NF-2 mud cake adhesion coefficient tester to test the mud cake adhesion coefficients of fresh water drilling fluids F1-F5 and DF1-DF9 before and after aging at 220°C for 16 hours. Calculate the lubrication coefficient, lubrication coefficient reduction rate, mud cake adhesion coefficient, and mud cake adhesion coefficient reduction rate according to the following formula. The experimental results are shown in Table 2-5.
[0070] The lubrication coefficient θ is calculated according to formula (1):

[0091]
[0092] Table 5. Evaluation of the reduction rate of the mud cake adhesion coefficient of the lubricant
[0093]
[0094] It can be seen from the experimental results that in the fresh water base slurry, after adding the lubricant prepared in the examples of the present invention, the reduction rate of the lubrication coefficient of the drilling fluid before aging is greater than 85%, and after aging at 220 °C, the reduction rate of the lubrication coefficient is greater than 70%. The reduction rate of the mud cake adhesion coefficient before aging is greater than 70%, and the reduction rate of the mud cake adhesion coefficient after aging at 220 °C is greater than 60%. The experimental results show that due to the ionic liquid unit and strong adsorption groups such as hydroxyl, amide, and pyridinium in the lubricant of the present invention, the temperature resistance can reach 220 °C, and it can effectively reduce the frictional resistance under high temperature conditions, reduce the risk of sticking and jamming, and improve the safety and efficiency of drilling.
[0095] It can be known from the experimental results of the comparative examples that when N-hydroxymethylacrylamide is removed or N-hydroxymethylacrylamide is replaced by acrylamide, the amide or hydroxyl group is missing in the lubricant, and the adsorption performance is weakened, resulting in a decrease in lubrication performance. Similarly, when there is a quaternary ammonium cation in the lubricant structure, the lubricant can be tightly adsorbed on the metal surface through electrostatic force. However, after removing (3-acrylamidopropyl) trimethylammonium chloride, the adsorption performance of the lubricant is weakened and the lubrication performance decreases. When the temperature-resistant (3-acrylamidopropyl) trimethylammonium chloride is replaced by the temperature-sensitive acryloyloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride, the adsorption performance of the lubricant after high-temperature aging is greatly weakened, resulting in a decrease in lubrication performance. The ionic liquid 1-vinylpyridine-tetrafluoroborate monomer contains a positively charged pyridinium ion, and the six-membered pyridine ring has a π bond similar to that of a benzene ring, with strong chemical stability, making the lubricant have excellent adsorption and lubrication performance. After replacing it with 1-vinylpyridine, the temperature resistance and adsorption performance of the lubricant both decrease, resulting in poor lubrication performance after aging at 220 °C. When the ionic liquid 1-vinylpyridine-tetrafluoroborate is removed, the lubrication effect of the lubricant after aging at 220 °C is greatly reduced. When the ester monomer polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate is removed, or replaced by methyl methacrylate, or the high molecular weight polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate is replaced by the low molecular weight polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate, the lubricant cannot form an effective lubricating oil film on the metal surface and cannot effectively reduce the frictional resistance.
[0096] 3. Refer to the standard QSY 17088-2016 "Technical Specification for Liquid Lubricants for Drilling Fluids", and use the EP-2A extreme pressure lubrication instrument and NF-2 mud cake adhesion coefficient tester to test the lubrication coefficient, mud cake adhesion coefficient, lubrication coefficient reduction rate, and mud cake adhesion coefficient reduction rate of saturated brine drilling fluids SF1-SF5 and DSF1-DSF9 before and after aging at 220°C for 16 h. The experimental results are shown in Tables 6-9.
[0097] Table 6. Evaluation of the Lubrication Coefficient Reduction Rate of Lubricants in Saturated Brine Base Slurry

[0102]
[0103] Table 9. Evaluation of the Mud Cake Adhesion Coefficient Reduction Rate of Lubricants in Saturated Brine Base Slurry
[0104]
[0105] It can be seen from the experimental results that under saturated salt conditions, after adding the lubricants A1-A5 of the embodiments of the present invention, the lubrication coefficient reduction rates of drilling fluids SF1-SF4 before aging are all greater than 80%, and the mud cake adhesion coefficient reduction rates are all greater than 70%. After aging at 220°C, the lubrication coefficient reduction rates of drilling fluids SF1-SF4 are all greater than 60%, and the mud cake adhesion coefficient reduction rates are all greater than 60%. Since the lubricant has pyridinium cations and quaternary ammonium cation side chains that are insensitive to salt, as well as polar groups such as hydroxyl groups and amides, the lubricant can still be tightly adsorbed on the surface of the drill string under high-temperature and high-salt conditions, and the ester group can form a dense lubricating film on the surface of the drill string, thereby effectively reducing the frictional resistance. The experimental results show that the lubricant of the present invention has a temperature resistance of 220°C and a salt resistance up to saturation.
[0106] 4. Test the fluorescence level and foaming rate of the lubricants A1-A5 prepared in the embodiments of the present invention. Add the lubricants A1-A5 prepared in the embodiments to 300 mL (V0) of deionized water and saturated sodium chloride brine respectively. The mass ratio of the lubricant to the volume of deionized water or saturated sodium chloride brine is 0.01 g / mL. Age at 220°C for 16 h, stir at a rate of 11,000 r / min for 10 minutes, let stand for 30 s after stirring ends, read the liquid volume and record it as V1. The foaming rate M (%) is calculated according to the following formula:
[0107]
[0108] M—the foaming rate, %.
[0109] V0—the initial volume of fresh water and saturated brine, mL;
[0110] V1—the volume of fresh water and saturated brine after being stirred at a rate of 11,000 r / min for 10 minutes and then left standing for 30 s, mL.
[0111] Table 10. Fluorescence level and foaming rate test of lubricants
[0112]
[0113] As can be seen from Table 10, the fluorescence level of the lubricants A1 - A5 of the present invention is Grade 2, within the range of 1 - 8 grades, and does not affect mud logging. Moreover, after the fresh water and saturated brine containing the lubricant of the present invention are stirred at a high speed of 11,000 r / min for 10 minutes, the foaming rate is less than 5%, indicating that the lubricant of the present invention has little foaming and is convenient for on-site use.

Within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

To avoid unnecessary repetition, the present invention will not separately describe various possible combination methods.
[0116] Furthermore, any combination can be made between various different embodiments of the present invention as long as it does not violate the idea of the present invention, and it should also be regarded as the content disclosed by the present invention.
