Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of petroleum extraction, and in particular relates to a deep liquid flow diverting agent suitable for high-mineralization strata, and also relates to a preparation method of the deep liquid flow diverting agent suitable for high-mineralization strata. Background Art

[0002] At present, more than 80% of my country's oil fields are developed by water drive, of which more than 80% are old oil fields with high water content. Therefore, improving the water drive efficiency of old oil fields is an important guarantee for the sustainable development of the oil industry, and deep liquid flow diversion technology is one of the most effective methods to achieve this goal. For high-mineralization oil reservoirs, existing cement and inorganic particle plugging agents (such as Benyuan inorganic gel diverter) can better meet the requirements of high mineralization, but after injection into the formation, the resistance is large and the action distance is limited, and it cannot play a role in the deep formation; the existing organic plugging agents (such as cross-linked polymer gel) are easy to curl polymer molecules in a high-mineralization environment, making cross-linking reactions difficult to occur, and the effect is not good. Therefore, it is very necessary to find a diverter that can play a role under high-mineralization conditions and achieve deep oil reservoir adjustment and drive.

[0003] As for deep flow diverting agents, no ready-made solution technology has been found so far, only similar technologies.

[0004] (1) Patent: A deep flow control and diversion method (application number CN102797442A, application date 20110527), which controls the precipitation reaction process in the porous medium of the formation by adjusting the precipitation ion content in the injected water and / or adding anti-scaling agents to change the thermodynamic conditions of the reaction, so as to generate precipitation in a predetermined area deep in the formation and achieve the purpose of deep flow diversion. The advantage of this method is that it is simple to operate, the water injection process remains unchanged, and only the composition of the injected water needs to be adjusted; the problem is that it only relies on reducing the permeability of the reservoir to achieve deep flow diversion, and the extent of improving the recovery rate is limited.

[0005] (2) Patent: A displacement agent suitable for high-temperature and high-salinity oil reservoirs and its preparation method (application number CN115044356A, application date 20220812), which uses cations injected into water with high mineralization to generate nano-micron particles, and gradually aggregates during migration to the deep formation to form micron-sized precipitation particles, thereby gradually blocking water from passing through and realizing deep liquid flow diversion. The problem is that the inorganic reaction speed is fast, and the aggregation of nano-micron particles in the reservoir is difficult to control. At the same time, relying solely on plugging to expand the impact and improve the recovery rate is limited.

[0006] (3) Patent: An emulsion-type adaptive plugging agent suitable for high-mineralization formations and its preparation method (application number CN105385428A, application date 20150703). The displacement agent is an oil-in-silicic acid nanoemulsion, which not only has the performance of emulsion itself in profile control and water plugging, but also has the performance of inorganic salt reaction to produce chemical plugging, thus achieving secondary plugging. The existing problem is that the precipitate particle size generated by the reaction of water glass with calcium and magnesium ions in the formation is too small and not strong enough to plug large pores. Summary of the invention

[0007] The first purpose of the present invention is to provide a deep flow diverting agent suitable for high-mineralization formations, which solves the problems of fast reaction speed and difficult process control of existing inorganic displacement agents, and the limited range of wave volume expansion and recovery rate improvement by relying solely on plugging.

[0008] The second object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a deep liquid flow diverting agent suitable for high-mineralization formations.

[0018] The second technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a method for preparing a deep flow diverting agent suitable for high-mineralization formations, which is specifically implemented according to the following steps:

[0019] The composite silicate, white oil, surfactant and high molecular polymer are added into water in sequence according to the proportion, and the mixture is shaken at a frequency of 60-80 times / min for 30 minutes to obtain a uniform emulsion.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] (1) The present invention utilizes the rich metal cations in the high-mineralization reservoir to react with the composite silicate in situ to generate scale ions, which are gradually adsorbed on the rock skeleton to form an inorganic gel coating. The subsequent water flow is diverted by "coating diameter reduction" to achieve deep liquid flow diversion.

[0022] (2) The present invention aggregates inorganic microgels through the flocculation adsorption bridging effect of high molecular polymers to form larger-scale inorganic microgel-organic polymer composite gel particles.

[0028] Preferably, the deep liquid flow diverting agent suitable for high-mineralization formations is composed of the following components in mass percentage: 1.0% to 2.0% composite silicate, white oil, surfactant, 0.04% to 0.08% high molecular polymer, and the sum of the mass percentages of the above components is 100%.

[0029] Preferably, the deep flow diverting agent suitable for high-mineralization formations is composed of the following components by mass percentage: 1.2% to 1.8% composite silicate, white oil, surfactant, 0.04% to 0.08% high molecular polymer, and the sum of the mass percentages of the above components is 100%.

[0030] Preferably, the composite silicate is Na 2 O·mSiO 2 , the water glass modulus m is 2.5~3.5.

[0031] Preferably, the surfactant is a mixture of Tween 80 and betaine, wherein the mass percentage of Tween 80 is 80% to 90%, and the mass percentage of betaine is 10% to 20%.

[0034] The composite silicate, white oil, surfactant and high molecular polymer are added into water in sequence according to the proportion, and the mixture is shaken at a frequency of 60-80 times / min for 30 minutes to obtain a uniform emulsion.

[0035] The deep liquid flow diverter of the present invention is adjusted and driven in the reservoir in the form of an emulsion, thereby improving the oil washing efficiency. After the emulsion is demulsified due to shear and high mineralization in the deep formation, the composite silicate in the system and the calcium and magnesium ions in the reservoir form inorganic microgels through cross-linking reactions. At the same time, the high molecular polymer aggregates the inorganic microgels through flocculation adsorption bridge action to form larger-scale inorganic microgel-organic polymer composite gel particles. Such composite gel particles can adapt to dominant channels of different levels and disrupt the fixed streamline field. At the same time, a large number of microgels can regulate the seepage capacity of channels of different levels through multifunctional synergistic blocking effects such as increasing the specific surface area in the channel, flowing through the curvature, and aggregating pore throat plugging, thereby achieving the expansion of the swept volume in the high mineralization formation while improving the oil washing efficiency, thereby greatly improving the recovery rate.

[0036] After the emulsion breaks, the inorganic silicate reacts with the divalent metal cations in the reservoir to form inorganic microgels. The principle is as follows:

[0037] Ca 2+ +Na 2 O·mSiO 2 →CaO·mSiO 2 ↓+2Na +
