Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a kind of anti-shearing foam drainage composition, foam drainage agent and its application, belong to gas field exploitation technical field. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, there are dozens of foam drainage agents suitable for different reservoir conditions at home and abroad, and most of them are greatly affected by temperature changes in performance, generally applicable to temperature below 90℃, salinity is 100000ppm, no H2S gas and condensate oil content is not high. With the continuous development of natural gas, high deep gas wells are also paid more and more attention, and the temperature of gas reservoir is higher, which leads to the foaming performance and liquid carrying performance of conventional foam drainage agents are greatly reduced. The foam produced by many foam drainage agents under the condition of temperature greater than 120℃ and salinity greater than 100000ppm will completely disappear within 1-2min, or even no foam is produced, which seriously restricts the application of foam drainage gas recovery in high temperature gas wells.

[0003] The Chinese invention patent document with the application publication number CN105086980A discloses "a foam drainage agent for deep gas well drainage gas recovery and its preparation method", wherein the composition of the foam drainage agent includes, by weight percentage: zwitterionic surfactant A 15-35%, zwitterionic surfactant B 10-30%, anionic surfactant 10-20%, fluorocarbon surfactant 0.1-2%, solid foam stabilizer, and the balance is deionized water. The foam drainage agent has certain foaming, foam stabilizing and liquid carrying performance under high temperature and high salinity conditions, but from the experimental results in the examples, the liquid carrying capacity is generally less than 180mL, and the liquid carrying rate is less than 90%. At the same time, fluorocarbon surfactant is used in the foam drainage agent formula, however, some fluorocarbon surfactants are restricted use chemicals in oil field chemicals, and as can be known from the content description, the foam drainage agent has low toxicity characteristics, and importantly, the price of fluorocarbon surfactant is also relatively high, thus limiting the popularization and application of the technology.

[0004] The foam drainage agent described in the publication "nanoparticle foam drainage agent suitable for deep water producing gas wells" also contains fluorocarbon surfactant, which also has the problems of restricted use and high price limiting popularization. The foam drainage agent described in the publication "a foam drainage agent suitable for high temperature deep gas well drainage" uses SDS, BS and PO complex, and the performance before and after aging at 120℃ is evaluated by conventional Ross foam instrument, but the adaptability under high temperature and high pressure conditions is not given, and the adaptability to high salinity and condensate oil content is not evaluated, and the adaptability is unknown.

[0005] Therefore, it has become a problem to be solved in the field to provide a foam drainage agent for high temperature gas well drainage gas recovery, which is resistant to high temperature and high salinity, has simple composition and is easy to obtain, and also considers production cost, popularization and other problems. SUMMARY

[0006] The first object of the present application is to provide an anti-shearing foam displacement composition to solve the problem that the foam displacement agent usually contains fluorocarbon surfactant, resulting in complex composition, high cost and certain biological toxicity, which is not conducive to large-scale promotion, when facing high temperature, high salinity and high condensate gas wells.

[0007] The second object of the present application is to provide an anti-shearing foam displacement agent to solve the problem that the foam displacement agent without fluorocarbon surfactant has poor adaptability and low drainage efficiency when applied to high-temperature deep condensate gas wells.

[0008] The third object of the present application is to provide the application of the anti-shearing foam displacement composition or the anti-shearing foam displacement agent in the foam drainage gas recovery of natural gas wells to solve the problem that the foam displacement agent usually contains fluorocarbon surfactant, resulting in complex composition, high cost and certain biological toxicity, which is not conducive to large-scale promotion, when the foam displacement agent is applied to high-temperature deep condensate gas wells.

[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the technical scheme of an anti-shearing foam displacement composition in the present application is:

[0010] An anti-shearing foam displacement composition, which is composed of a main agent, a thickening agent and a stabilizer; the main agent is composed of a first zwitterionic surfactant and a second ionic surfactant; the first zwitterionic surfactant accounts for 70-80% of the mass of the main agent; the thickening agent accounts for 0.2-0.4% of the mass of the main agent; the stabilizer accounts for 0.06-0.1% of the mass of the main agent; the first zwitterionic surfactant is cocamide propyl betaine; and the second ionic surfactant is dodecyl dimethyl amine oxide.

[0011] The above technical scheme has the following advantages: the present application selects cocamide propyl betaine and dodecyl dimethyl amine oxide as the main agent, and matches with the thickening agent and the stabilizer to form the anti-shearing foam displacement composition, which has the advantages of simple composition, easy availability and low cost, and can maintain high foaming and stable foaming capacity and excellent liquid carrying rate without fluorocarbon surfactant when facing high temperature, high salinity and high condensate gas wells. Experiments have proved that the foam displacement agent prepared from the anti-shearing foam displacement composition of the present application has the advantages of strong foaming and liquid carrying capacity, excellent cleanliness, good low-temperature resistance and flowability, meets the requirements of different injection processes, and is especially suitable for foam drainage gas recovery in high-temperature deep gas wells.

[0012] The cocoamide propyl betaine and the dodecyl dimethyl amine oxide have good foaming and stable foaming effects, and contain cationic groups and anionic groups at the same time, and the solubility is less limited by the dielectric medium and the pH value range of the solution, and is less affected by the high mineralization and condensate oil in the formation. The stable foaming agent composed of the solid stable foaming agent and the macromolecular stable foaming agent and the selected main agent play a synergistic effect, so that the molecules in the foam displacement agent are densely arranged, the strength and elasticity of the generated foam are enhanced, the dispersion effect caused by the violent Brownian motion of the molecules at high temperature in the high-temperature deep gas well is reduced, and the stable foaming capacity of the foam displacement agent is further enhanced.

[0013] As a further improvement, the stabilizer is composed of magnesium lithium silicate and sodium gluconate; and the mass ratio of the magnesium lithium silicate and the sodium gluconate is 1:(1-1.1).

[0014] The above technical solution has the beneficial effects that the magnesium lithium silicate forms a certain space barrier network structure, increases the rigidity of the bubbles; the sodium gluconate, the cocoamide propyl betaine and the dodecyl dimethyl amine oxide have strong interactions on the surface of the solution, improve the surface viscosity and the volume repulsion effect between the two surfaces in the foam, and improve the stability of the foam. The two types of stabilizers cooperate with each other to significantly improve the stability of the foam of the foam displacement agent, and further increase the liquid carrying capacity.

[0015] As a further improvement, the thickening agent is composed of polyethylene glycol 2000 and hydroxypropyl beta cyclodextrin; and the mass ratio of the polyethylene glycol 2000 and the hydroxypropyl beta cyclodextrin is 1:(1-1.1).

[0016] The above technical solution has the beneficial effects that the polyethylene glycol 2000 has good solubility, is stable to heat, acid and alkali, and has good moisture absorption, lubricity and viscosity, can effectively improve the viscosity and shear resistance of the foam displacement agent, improve the strength of the foam film, and further improve the stability of the foam; the cyclodextrin has a thickening effect and also has strong stability. The two thickening agents cooperate with each other to effectively improve the stability of the foam displacement agent, and greatly reduce the production cost.

[0017] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme of an anti-shearing foam displacement agent in the present application is:

[0018] An anti-shearing foam displacement agent, comprising an anti-shearing foam displacement composition and water.

[0020] As a further improvement, the first amphoteric ion surfactant in the anti-shear foam displacement composition accounts for 59-71% of the weight percentage of the anti-shear foam displacement agent.

[0021] As a further improvement, the anti-shear foam displacement agent includes an anti-freezing agent.

[0022] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are that the anti-freezing agent is added to the foam displacement agent of the application, without affecting the foaming and foam stability of the foam displacement agent, the foam displacement agent also has good anti-freezing property, is still a flowable liquid after being frozen at-18℃ for 24 hours, can be well adapted to smooth injection of the agent in winter in the north, and further expands the geographical range of practical application of the foam displacement agent.

[0023] Preferably, the anti-freezing agent is methanol.

[0024] As a further improvement, the amount of the anti-freezing agent is 0-5% of the mass of the main agent.

[0025] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purposes, the technical solution of the application of the anti-shear foam displacement composition or the anti-shear foam displacement agent in foam drainage gas recovery in natural gas wells is:

[0026] The application of an anti-shear foam displacement composition or an anti-shear foam displacement agent in foam drainage gas recovery in natural gas wells.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are that the anti-shear foam displacement agent of the application can maintain high foaming and foam stability and excellent liquid carrying rate when facing high-temperature, high-salinity and high-condensate gas wells for drainage gas recovery without containing fluorocarbon surfactants. At the same time, all the components are good in human body compatibility, small in biological toxicity, easy in biological degradation, and small in influence on reservoirs and formations.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the application are that:

[0029] The anti-shearing foam displacement agent has the advantages of strong foaming and liquid carrying capacity, excellent cleanliness, good low-temperature resistance and flowability, and meets the requirements of different filling processes, and is especially suitable for high-temperature deep well foam drainage gas recovery.
