Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of drilling fluids, and particularly relates to an anti-collapse drilling fluid and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] During the drilling process of oil and natural gas, drilling fluids play a crucial role. They can not only carry cuttings, cool the drill bit, but also stabilize the wellbore and prevent accidents such as well collapse. With the continuous development of drilling technologies and the emergence of increasingly complex formations, the performance requirements for drilling fluids are also getting higher and higher, among which the anti-collapse performance is one of the key indicators.
[0003] Currently, there are some problems in the practical application of anti-collapse drilling fluids. Firstly, different formation conditions have different requirements for the anti-collapse performance of drilling fluids. For example, in special formations such as fractured formations and carbonate rock formations, the drilling fluid needs to have stronger inhibition and plugging properties to prevent wellbore collapse. However, the existing anti-collapse drilling fluid formulations often have limitations when adapting to different formations and are difficult to meet the anti-collapse requirements of all complex formations. Secondly, in harsh environments such as high temperature and high pressure, the performance of the drilling fluid is prone to change, resulting in a decline in the anti-collapse effect, which is particularly prominent in deep and ultra-deep drilling. In addition, the increasingly strict environmental requirements also pose new challenges to the composition of anti-collapse drilling fluids. Some traditional anti-collapse agents may contain substances that are not friendly to the environment, and more environmentally friendly alternatives need to be found.
[0004] Chinese Patent No. CN113637464A discloses an anti-collapse drilling fluid, its preparation method and application. The anti-collapse drilling fluid contains the following components in parts by weight: 1000 parts by weight of water, 15 - 40 parts by weight of drilling fluid bentonite, 5 - 35 parts by weight of micro-nano plugging agent, 20 - 70 parts by weight of temperature-sensitive plugging anti-collapse agent, 15 - 30 parts by weight of graphene hydrogel, and 0 - 1600 parts by weight of inert weighting agent. The high-temperature plugging performance of the drilling fluid prepared by this method needs to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0020] In step A2, the feeding mass ratio of the silane-modified nano-silica and 3-amino-5-carboxyphenylboronic acid is 10:(0.6 - 1).
[0021] In step A3, the feeding mass ratio of the boric acid-modified nano-silica and methoxypolyethylene glycol amine is 10:(2 - 3).
[0022] In step A4, the feeding mass ratio of the polyethylene glycol-modified nano-silica to 1,2-dodecanediol is 10:(1-1.2).

[0084] Comparative Example 7
[0085] An anti-collapse drilling fluid prepared by using the raw materials and method in Example 3 of the patent with the publication number CN113637464A.
[0086] The raw materials used in the embodiments and comparative examples of this application are as follows: The bentonite model is Bentone 38; the barite powder has a particle size of 400 mesh and is produced by Shijiazhuang Mayue Building Materials Co., Ltd.; the nano-silica used in the embodiments and comparative examples of this application for preparing the modified emulsifier and the modified plugging agent is hydroxyl-modified nano-silica, with the model of As-200, purchased from Shenyang Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.; the M.W. of methoxypolyethylene glycol amine = 2000; the model of carboxymethyl cellulose is CMC-HVT, purchased from Hebei Yeyuan New Materials Co., Ltd.; the polyacrylamide is non-ionic, with a molecular weight of 3 million, purchased from Henan Jinghua New Materials Technology Co., Ltd.
[0087] The high-temperature and high-pressure filtration loss experiment test was carried out on the anti-collapse drilling fluids prepared in the examples and comparative examples. The experiment was carried out in accordance with GB / T 16783.1-2014 "Petroleum and natural gas industries - Drilling fluid field testing - Part 1: Water-based drilling fluids". The experimental conditions were 220 °C × 16 h, and the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0088] Table 1 Performance indicators of drilling fluids
[0089]
[0090] It can be seen from Table 1 that the high-temperature and high-pressure filtration loss of the anti-collapse drilling fluid prepared in this application is relatively low, indicating excellent plugging performance.
[0091] The modified plugging agent prepared by the present invention forms a composite material with a three-dimensional network structure by introducing fluorocarbon chains on the surface of nano-silica and then reacting with N-isopropylacrylamide and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide. The three-dimensional network structure can effectively fill the micro-fractures and pores in the formation, and achieve multi-level plugging of pores with different sizes through the three-dimensional cross-linked structure formed after curing; compared with traditional rigid materials, this three-dimensional network has both flexibility and rigidity, which combines rigid inorganic particles (silica) with flexible polymers (obtained by polymerizing the double bonds of γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane grafted onto the surface of nano-silica with N-isopropylacrylamide and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide), forming an interpenetrating network structure with both high strength and deformation ability, thereby improving the comprehensive plugging efficiency. The plugging agent prepared in this application improves the temperature resistance of the material through an inorganic / organic composite structure, and can still maintain a stable three-dimensional cross-linked structure at high temperatures, avoiding the possibility of plugging failure caused by temperature changes. The strong hydrophobicity and low surface tension of the fluorinated groups in the modified plugging agent make the plugging agent easy to penetrate into micro-fractures and closely adhere to the rock surface, reducing the interface gap and the filtration loss; and the fluorinated group chain contains sulfonamide groups with strong polarity, which can form multiple interactions with the aqueous phase in the drilling fluid, the hydroxyl groups on the surface of nano-silica, and the polymer through hydrogen bonds or electrostatic interactions, thereby enhancing the interfacial adhesion. However, 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane only contains perfluorinated chains and silyl groups, lacking polar groups (such as sulfonamide), resulting in a relatively reduced binding ability with nanoparticles or polymers, so the plugging performance of Comparative Example 1 is poor.
[0092] N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide is a bifunctional cross-linking agent, and two acrylamide groups can react with multiple polymer chains (such as N-isopropylacrylamide) simultaneously to form a high-strength three-dimensional cross-linked network; this three-dimensional cross-linked network can resist the compression and shear forces in the downhole high-pressure environment and can better maintain the structural integrity under dynamic stress. While N-(hydroxymethyl)acrylamide is a monofunctional monomer that cannot form intermolecular cross-linking and can only participate in linear polymerization reactions. Therefore, the plugging performance of Comparative Example 2 is poor.
[0093] The long-chain borate molecules and long-chain polyethylene glycol segments in the modified emulsifier prepared by the present invention can form a dense filtration control film on the contact surface between the drilling fluid and the formation. Its long-chain structure can block the tiny pores and fractures in the formation, preventing the water and solid particles in the drilling fluid from entering the formation, thereby reducing the filtration loss. However, 1,2-propanediol and dodecylamine have short molecular chains and are not easily blocked by the tiny pores and fractures in the formation, so their plugging performance is poor.
[0094] 3-Amino-5-carboxylphenylboronic acid contains a boronic acid group that can form dynamic reversible borate ester bonds. The breakage-recombination of the dynamic bonds can repair the microcracks in the sealing layer and maintain long-term sealing performance. 4-Aminobenzoic acid only contains amino and carboxyl groups and cannot form dynamic borate ester bonds, resulting in the loss of environmental responsiveness of the material and the inability to adaptively adjust the filtration behavior.
