Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a plugging agent and its preparation method and application, belonging to the technical field of oilfield chemicals. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous increase in global oil demand, oil drilling has gradually shifted from shallow to deep layers. Since the difficulty of oil extraction in deep wells or ultra-deep wells has gradually increased, the requirements for drilling technology have become more stringent. As one of the core technologies, the plugging technology has been widely studied in the field of drilling engineering. Drilling workers at home and abroad have developed a series of polymer-based plugging materials and supporting plugging processes from the perspectives of chemistry and materials science. However, for fractured and cavernous losses, the current plugging materials cannot meet the above plugging requirements. In addition, in order to improve the heat resistance, a large amount of plugging materials need to be used. After adding a large amount of plugging materials to the plugging slurry, the solid content of the plugging slurry will be very high, often resulting in difficult pumping, or difficult lifting of the drill string after the plugging slurry reaches the well. This requires the plugging materials to have good heat resistance, rheology, and lubricity.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a plugging agent with good heat resistance, rheology, and lubricity to meet the plugging requirements of unstable and collapsing shale formations. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a preparation method of a plugging agent, which can solve the problem that the currently prepared plugging agent has poor heat resistance, rheology, and lubricity and cannot meet the plugging requirements of unstable and collapsing shale formations.

[0005] The second purpose of the present invention is to provide a plugging agent, which can solve the problem that the current plugging agent has poor heat resistance, rheology, and lubricity.

[0006] The third purpose of the present invention is to provide an application of a plugging agent in drilling fluid, which can solve the problem that the current plugging agent has poor heat resistance, rheology, and lubricity when used in drilling fluid.

[0007] In order to achieve the above purposes, the technical solution adopted by the preparation method of the plugging agent of the present invention is as follows:

[0008] A preparation method of a plugging agent, comprising the following steps:

[0009] (1) Mix flaky carbon nitride and molybdenum disulfide precursor in an organic solvent, and then carry out a solvothermal reaction to obtain a carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite;

[0010] (2) The obtained carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite is modified with active groups by using a modifying substance to obtain an active-group-modified carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite, and the active groups are selected from one or any combination of hydroxyl groups, carboxyl groups, and amino groups;

[0011] (3) The active-group-modified carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite, a phenolic compound, an aldehyde compound, and a catalyst are mixed and reacted in a solvent to in-situ synthesize a phenolic resin on the active-group-modified carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite to obtain a phenolic-resin-modified composite material;

[0012] (4) The phenolic-resin-modified composite material and m-alkynylphenyl diazonium salt are subjected to a coupling reaction in an alkaline liquid phase environment below 0 °C to obtain a plugging agent.

[0013] In the preparation method of the plugging agent of the present invention, first, sheet-like carbon nitride and molybdenum disulfide are compounded to obtain a carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite; then, the carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite is modified with active groups, and finally, a phenolic resin is filled between the layers of the active-group-modified composite material. The plugging agent prepared by the preparation method of the plugging agent of the present invention has good plugging performance, heat resistance, lubricating performance, and pressure-bearing capacity, and has a wide size distribution range and controllable morphology, which is beneficial to adapting to plugging of cracks with different widths, and has good biodegradability, has no impact on the environment, and is non-toxic and pollution-free. Among them, carbon nitride has good heat resistance, a low friction coefficient, and excellent lubricating performance; molybdenum disulfide has the characteristics of high strength and easy shear, and has an extremely low friction coefficient and excellent lubricating performance, which can improve the self-lubricity of the plugging agent; using carbon nitride and molybdenum disulfide as the matrix of the plugging agent can endow the plugging agent with good heat resistance, lubricating performance, and pressure-bearing capacity. In the preparation method of the plugging agent of the present invention, the purpose of modifying the carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite with active groups is to improve the in-situ growth ability of the heteroaromatic resin between the layers of the active-group-modified carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite. The phenolic resin can improve the toughness, pressure-bearing capacity, and compatibility performance with the drilling fluid of the plugging agent, and can endow the drilling fluid with good rheological properties.

[0018] Preferably, in step (2), the modifying substance includes an active substance and a water-soluble sulfate; the active substance is an alkaline compound, an acidic compound, urea or a water-soluble cyanide salt. Modifying the carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite with the modifying substance to introduce active groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, amino, etc. on the carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite can improve the binding ability between the carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite and the resin. In the present invention, when an alkaline compound or a water-soluble cyanide salt is used for modification, a carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite modified with active groups can be obtained; when an acidic compound is used for modification, a carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite modified with carboxyl groups can be obtained; when urea is used for modification, a carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite modified with amino groups can be obtained.

[0019] Preferably, the alkaline compound is an alkali metal hydroxide; the acidic compound is a carboxylic acid compound; the water-soluble cyanide salt is sodium cyanide or potassium cyanide; the water-soluble sulfate is sodium sulfate or potassium sulfate.

[0028] Preferably, in step (3), the method of the mixed reaction includes the following steps: Mix the active group-modified carbon nitride-molybdenum disulfide composite, phenolic compound, aldehyde compound, and catalyst in a solvent and react at 60 - 70 °C for 10 - 30 min, then raise the temperature to 85 - 95 °C and continue the mixed reaction for 6 - 8 h. Further preferably, the time for the continued mixed reaction is 7.5 - 8 h.

[0153] Experimental Example 3

[0154] To test the dispersion stability of the plugging agent in the drilling fluid, the plugging agents prepared in Examples 1-27 were added to the oil-based mud (the mass of the plugging agent is 3% of the mass of the oil-based mud), stirred evenly to obtain a dispersion, and then the dispersion performance of the plugging agent in the dispersion was observed. The appearance diagram of the dispersion prepared by adding the plugging agent prepared in Example 1 to the oil-based mud when it was placed at room temperature for 1 h is as Figure 5 shown. The results show that the plugging agents prepared in Examples 1-27 can be evenly dispersed in the oil-based mud.

[0155] To evaluate the plugging performance and heat resistance of the plugging agents prepared in Examples 1-27 and Comparative Examples 1-3, the plugging agents prepared in Examples 1-27 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were respectively added to the oil-based mud (the mass of the plugging agent is 3% of the mass of the oil-based mud) to obtain oil-based drilling fluids, and then the plugging performance of each oil-based drilling fluid and the plugging performance of each oil-based drilling fluid after hot rolling at 120 °C for 12 h were tested.

[0156] The oil-based mud used in this experimental example is composed of barite powder and the following components by mass fraction: 2% main emulsifier + 2.4% auxiliary emulsifier + 2.5% organophilic clay + 3% alkaline regulator + 2% wetting agent + 4% fluid loss reducer (oxidized asphalt) + 20% calcium chloride aqueous solution (mass fraction of 25%), and the balance is a mixed solvent composed of diesel and water with a volume ratio of 4:1. The density of the oil-based mud is 1.4 g / cm 3 ; the main emulsifier is sodium hydroxysulfopropyl methacrylate, the auxiliary emulsifier is allyloxynonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, the alkaline regulator is calcium oxide, and the wetting agent is sodium allyloxyhydroxypropylsulfonate.

[0157] The test method for the plugging performance is as follows: Add the plugging agent to the oil-based mud to obtain an oil-based drilling fluid, and then use a non-permeable drilling fluid filter loss instrument developed and produced by Qingdao Haitongda Special Instrument Factory for testing. The specific operation is as follows: Ensure that the instrument is clean before use. Pour 40-60 mesh sand into a graduated plexiglass container, and then add the oil-based drilling fluid until the oil-based drilling fluid reaches the 500 mL graduation line. Place the measuring cylinder under the plexiglass. Open the air source handle and slowly turn the pressure reducing valve handle clockwise. Observe the pressure gauge indication and make it stable at 0.7 MPa; Mark the initial intrusion depth (L 1 ) of the oil-based drilling fluid before opening the control switch; While marking the initial intrusion depth, slowly turn the control handle clockwise and observe the pressure gauge indication at the same time. A slight instantaneous drop in the pressure gauge (or hearing the sound of air intake in the cylinder) indicates completion; Record the depth of the oil-based drilling fluid invading the sand bed every ten minutes. When the test time reaches 30 minutes, turn the control handle counterclockwise to loosen it, and at this time, cut off the air source path; Finally, record the depth (L 2 ) of the oil-based drilling fluid invading the sand bed at the end of the experiment.
