AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing gel polymers are prone to hydrolysis and precipitation under high temperature and high mineralization environments in carbonate reservoirs, resulting in a decrease in viscosity and poor flow regulation or blockage adjustment effect.

Method used

Monomers containing long branched chain sulfonic acid groups are used as the main structural unit, and amide, alkylaminoyl, and tertiary carbonate structural units are introduced to control the hydrolysis rate of amide groups and alkylamides to form a hydrolysis-resistant sulfonic acid copolymer. The copolymer hydrolyzes at high temperature to form a crosslinking site, coordinates with the metal crosslinking agent to form a high viscosity flow regulator, and reacts with the phenol and aldehyde crosslinking agent to form a high-strength plugging agent.

Benefits of technology

In an oil reservoir environment with mineralization degree ≤300,000 mg/L and calcium and magnesium ion content ≤10,000 mg/L, the flow regulator maintains a high viscosity for 60 days. After aging at 140-160℃ for 90 days, the dehydration rate is low and has a high energy storage modulus to achieve a long-term blocking effect.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil extraction, and specifically, to a sulfonic acid copolymer, a preparation method thereof, and a profile control and displacement system. Background Art

[0002] Carbonate reservoirs are mainly fracture-vuggy. Due to extremely strong heterogeneity, water channeling and low recovery rate are likely to occur during water injection development of the reservoir. The fluid flow state in carbonate reservoirs is complex, with both seepage flow and pipe flow existing simultaneously. Water channeling and water flooding in preferential channels have long troubled oilfield production. Currently, the widely used profile control and displacement technologies include flow control and plugging. Among them, flow control is to inject a flow control agent into a water well, and the fluid to be injected should have low viscosity during injection and high viscosity after reaching the deep layer. Plugging is to inject a high-strength plugging agent into an oil well, and the fluid to be injected should be able to maintain high strength for a long time after reaching the deep part. Currently, the commonly used flow control agents and plugging agents are mostly polymer gels. However, the carbonate reservoir environment is harsh. In domestic carbonate reservoirs in China, the general temperature is 110 - 160 °C, the salinity ≥ 20 × 10 4 mg / L, and the calcium and magnesium ion content ≥ 1 × 10 4 mg / L. Taking Abu Dhabi in the Middle East as an example for foreign carbonate reservoirs, the reservoir temperature is 115 - 139 °C, and the salinity is 15 × 10 4 -20 × 10 4 mg / L. Existing gels usually use acrylamide monomers as the main building units. In the reservoir environment, a large amount of rapid hydrolysis of the amide groups in the polymer leads to the formation of precipitates when encountering high calcium and magnesium ions, resulting in a sharp drop in viscosity, making it difficult to achieve high viscosity in the deep layer, or because a large amount of amide groups are reduced, it is difficult to form a high-strength gel, resulting in rapid dehydration and failure of the gel, and the profile control or plugging effect deteriorates.

[0003] Currently, the upper limits of temperature and salinity applicable to gels for profile control or plugging are much lower than the application environment of carbonate reservoirs. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new polymers and gel profile control and displacement systems with temperature resistance, salt resistance, and high calcium and magnesium ion resistance to meet the requirements of flow control and plugging in carbonate reservoirs. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Through the above technical solutions, the present invention uses monomers containing long-chain branched sulfonic acid groups as the main building units, and introduces amide, alkylamine acyl, and tertiary carbonate structural units, which can control the hydrolysis rate of amide groups and alkylamides, and avoid precipitation at the same time. It has strong hydrolysis resistance and a stable backbone structure. The copolymer of the present invention releases crosslinking sites through the hydrolysis of amide groups and alkylamine acyl groups at high temperatures, and can form a flow regulator with a certain viscosity and adjustable viscosity by coordinating with a metal crosslinking agent. This flow regulator still has a high viscosity after 60 days in a reservoir environment with a temperature of 60-130°C, a salinity ≤ 300000 mg / L, and a calcium and magnesium ion content ≤ 10000 mg / L, thus realizing flow path adjustment.

[0010] At the same time, the amino groups generated by the hydrolysis of amide groups and alkylamine acyl groups in the copolymer of the present invention can react with phenolic and aldehyde crosslinking agents to form a profile control system with high strength. In a reservoir environment with a temperature of 140-160°C, a salinity ≤ 300000 mg / L, and a calcium and magnesium ion content ≤ 10000 mg / L, it can be stable for at least 90 days, maintain good viscoelasticity, have a low dehydration rate, and achieve long-term profile control and plugging.

[0070] The test methods for copolymer or flooding system performance are as follows:

[0071] 1) The molecular weight test method is as follows:

[0073] 2) The content of cross-linked groups generated by hydrolysis = the content of carboxyl groups + the content of amine groups. The test method for the content of cross-linked groups (carboxyl groups and amine groups) is as follows: a) A certain mass of high-temperature aged polymer solution is measured according to the method of determining the degree of hydrolysis in accordance with the enterprise standard Q / SH1020 1572-2022 "Polyacrylamide for Oil Displacement" of Shengli Petroleum Administration Bureau of Sinopec Group to obtain the hydrochloric acid consumption V 1 (Total hydrochloric acid consumption of acrylate and formate (acetate) structural units); b) The same mass of high-temperature aged polymer solution is first purified by dialysis membrane (molecular weight cutoff: 3500, Solebow brand) to remove the sodium formate produced by hydrolysis, and then most of the water is removed by rotary evaporation, and the aged polymer powder sample is obtained by freeze-drying and crushing, and then the hydrolysis degree is determined by referring to the method of determining the hydrolysis degree of Sinopec Group Shengli Petroleum Administration Bureau Enterprise Standard Q / SH1020 1572-2022 "Polyacrylamide for Oil Displacement" to obtain the hydrochloric acid consumption V 2 (Hydrochloric acid consumption of acrylic acid radical), by V 2 Calculate the carboxyl content. c) Through V 3 =V 1 -V 2 Calculate the hydrochloric acid consumption of formate or acetate, and refer to the hydrolysis degree formula in Q / SH1020 1572-2022 "Polyacrylamide for Oil Displacement" to calculate the content of amine groups released by hydrolysis.

[0074] 3) The viscosity of the displacement system was measured using a Brookfield R / S Rheometer at 30°C for 7.34s -1 Viscosity at shear rate.

[0075] 4) The gel strength of the displacement system is measured by rheological method through the storage modulus of the system. The measurement method refers to the "Rheological parameter method for measuring the strength of polymer gel for oil production" (SY / T6296-1997). The testing instrument is HAAKE RS6000 rheometer. ​​​​​

[0076] 5) The thermal stability of the profile control system is reflected by the dehydration rate. The lower the dehydration rate, the stronger the stability. The test method for the dehydration rate is as follows: Place the gelled solution of the polymer gel formed by the polymer and the crosslinking agent in a closed stainless steel reactor, place it in a constant temperature oven at a temperature of 140 - 160 °C for reaction. Take it out of the constant temperature oven at fixed intervals (30 - 90 days), weigh the weight of the dehydrated water with a balance, and the ratio of this mass to the mass of the initial gelled solution is the dehydration rate.
