Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of oil exploitation engineering, and relates to the field of preventing gas channeling in low-permeability reservoirs, in particular to an in-situ modified nanoparticle CO 2 foam channeling plugging system and its preparation method and application. 2 Background Technique
[0002] CO 2 flooding technology is an effective method to achieve a win-win situation of increasing oil production and carbon sequestration. It can realize the resource utilization of greenhouse gases and improve the oil and gas recovery rate. Chinese Patent Application CN 109973060A discloses a device and method for improving oilfield recovery, applying carbon dioxide flooding technology to tight oil development, which not only improves the flooding effect but also can well sequester carbon dioxide underground, reducing the "greenhouse gas" effect in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide can reduce the viscosity of crude oil, improve the mobility ratio, expand the swept volume, effectively solve the development contradictions such as difficult injection of water into ultra-low permeability reservoirs, insufficient injection, difficult establishment of an effective displacement system, and channeling of injected water along fractures. Carbon dioxide and underground crude oil are mutually fused (miscible), with characteristics such as low miscibility pressure and low interfacial tension, and on average, it can improve the oilfield recovery rate by 5% - 15% on the basis of water flooding, improving the displacement efficiency.
[0003] However, during the CO 2 gas flooding process, due to the characteristics of small gas density, low viscosity, and formation heterogeneity, problems such as CO 2 gravity override, channeling along high-permeability channels, and viscous fingering often occur, which reduces the swept volume of the gas and the gas flooding efficiency. Therefore, gas channeling greatly affects the CO 2 development effect.
[0004] In order to expand the swept volume of gas flooding and improve the CO 2 flooding effect, CO 2 Foam has developed into an important technical means to improve the gas-liquid mobility ratio. For example, Chinese invention patent CN 114196389B provides an ultra-low interfacial tension self-assembled carbon dioxide foam flooding agent suitable for low-permeability oil reservoirs, which is composed of the following components: ethane {bis[N-methyl-N-(3-dodecyloxy-2-hydroxy)propyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-sulfonate)propyl]ammonium chloride}, coconut amide propyl betaine, dodecyl dimethyl amine oxide, sodium salicylate, chelating agent, inorganic salt, and the balance is water. This invention patent also provides a preparation method and application of the ultra-low interfacial tension self-assembled carbon dioxide foam flooding agent. This self-assembled carbon dioxide foam flooding agent has good salt and acid resistance, high viscosity of the foaming liquid, fine and rich foam, good stability, good injectivity in low-permeability oil reservoirs, can improve the oil-water mobility ratio, significantly expand the sweep efficiency, can reduce the oil-water interfacial tension, and significantly improve the oil washing efficiency; this foaming agent will not cause salting-out phenomenon, nor will it chemically react with calcium and magnesium ions to form precipitation. Another example is that Chinese invention patent application CN 114196389A provides an ultra-low interfacial tension self-assembled carbon dioxide foam flooding agent suitable for low-permeability oil reservoirs, which is composed of the following components in weight percentage: ethane {bis[N-methyl-N-(3-dodecyloxy-2-hydroxy)propyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-sulfonate)propyl]ammonium chloride}: 0.2-0.3%, coconut amide propyl betaine: 0.2-0.3%, dodecyl dimethyl amine oxide: 0.1-0.35%, sodium salicylate: 0.02-0.07%, chelating agent: 0.04-0.14%, inorganic salt: 5-7%, and the balance is water. This invention patent also provides a preparation method and application of the ultra-low interfacial tension self-assembled carbon dioxide foam flooding agent. This self-assembled carbon dioxide foam flooding agent has good salt and acid resistance, high viscosity of the foaming liquid, makes the oil-water interfacial tension reach the order of magnitude of 10 -3 mN / m or below, the generated foam is fine and rich, has good stability, has good injectivity in low-permeability oil reservoirs, can improve the oil-water mobility ratio, significantly expand the sweep efficiency, can reduce the oil-water interfacial tension, and significantly improve the oil washing efficiency; this foaming agent will not cause salting-out phenomenon, nor will it chemically react with calcium and magnesium ions to form precipitation.
[0005] CO 2 Foam is a dispersion system with CO 2 as the dispersed phase and the surfactant solution as the dispersion medium. In porous media, CO 2 foam can block the liquid film, reduce the gas mobility, and expand the gas flooding swept volume, thereby effectively improving phenomena such as gas channeling and fingering. However, low-permeability oil reservoirs are buried deep, with relatively high temperature and salinity. The liquid film strength of the conventional CO 2 foam system decreases under high-temperature and high-salt conditions, resulting in a decrease in the foam plugging ability of CO 2 foam. Although ordinary nanoparticles strengthen CO 2The foam system can partially solve the above problems, but for ordinary nanoparticle-enhanced CO 2 In the foam system, the modification cost of nanoparticles is high, and they are easily adsorbed on formation rocks after modification, resulting in weakened foam-enhancing effect of the nanoparticles and ultimately affecting the foam channel plugging effect.

[0153] Performance and characterization
[0154] Test example 1
[0155] Prepare an aqueous solution of a non-ionic CO 2 responsive surfactant with a mass concentration of 1% (in this test example, the non-ionic CO 2 responsive surfactant used is coconut fatty acid diethanolamide,), and after the non-ionic CO 2 responsive surfactant is completely dissolved, use a conductivity meter to measure the conductivity of the solution, and then alternately introduce CO 2 and N 2 , measure the conductivity of the surfactant solution, and the experimental results are as Figure 1 shown, Figure 1 in which, the squares represent the introduction of carbon dioxide, and the circles represent the introduction of nitrogen. It can be seen from the results that as CO 2With the increase of time, the conductivity gradually increases; with the increase of the time of introducing N 2 (CO 2 escaping), the conductivity gradually decreases again, indicating that the non-ionic surfactant has CO 2 response characteristics. Introducing CO 2 can turn the non-ionic surfactant into a charged ionic surfactant, and after CO 2 escapes, the charged ionic surfactant turns back into an uncharged non-ionic surfactant.
[0156] Test Example 2
[0157] Prepare a mixed solution of a 3% non-ionic CO 2 responsive surfactant (coco diethanolamide) and 6% nano-SiO 2 particles. Take a small amount of the solution and centrifuge it at high speed to obtain nano-SiO 2 particles, then measure the contact angle. Introduce CO 2 and stir to form an acidic mixture. Again, take a small amount of the solution and centrifuge it at high speed to obtain nano-SiO 2 particles, and measure the contact angle. The experimental results are as Figure 2a and Figure 2b shown. It can be seen from the experimental results that before and after introducing CO 2 , the surface of the nano-SiO 2 particles changes from hydrophilic to hydrophobic. This is mainly because the negatively charged nano-SiO 2 particles have an electrostatic interaction with the positively charged ionic surfactant after CO 2 response, and the ionic surfactant is adsorbed onto the surface of the nano-SiO 2 particles, in-situ hydrophobically modifying the surface of the nano-SiO 2 particles.
[0158] Test Example 3
[0159] Prepare the CO 2 foam system D1 using the same method as in Specific Example 1, except that: it does not contain nano-SiO 2 particles.
[0160] Test the half-life of the CO 2 foam under different shear rate conditions. The experimental results are as Figure 5 shown. It can be seen from the results that with the increase of the shear rate, the drainage half-life of the CO 2 foam system D1 also gradually increases. When the shear rate increases from 4000 r / min to 10000 r / min, the drainage half-life increases from 35 min to 67 min. Compared with Specific Example 1, CO 2The foam system D1 only contains surfactants, and the drainage half-life (stability) of the system is reduced by more than half. Therefore, the nano-SiO 2 particles have a greater weight in increasing the stability of the system.
[0161] Test Example 4
[0162] The nano-particle enhanced CO 2 foam system D2 was prepared by the same method as in Example 1, except that: an ordinary non-ionic surfactant was used to replace the non-ionic CO 2 responsive surfactant.
[0163] The half-life of CO 2 foam was tested under different shear rate conditions, and the experimental results are as Figure 6 shown. It can be seen from the results that as the shear rate increases, the drainage half-life of the nano-particle enhanced CO 2 foam system D2 also gradually increases. When the shear rate increases from 4000 r / min to 10000 r / min, the drainage half-life increases from 40 min to 81 min. Compared with Example 1, the ordinary non-ionic surfactant in the system does not have the CO 2 responsive property, so it cannot change from a non-ionic surfactant to an ionic surfactant and adsorb on the surface of the nano-particles for modification. Because the nano-particles cannot adsorb to the gas-liquid interface to improve the foam stability, the drainage half-life (stability) of the nano-particle enhanced CO 2 foam system D2 is much lower than that of the in-situ modified nano-particle CO 2 foam plugging system A1 in Example 1.
[0164] Test Example 5
[0165] First, water was injected into the water-saturated core alone to test the basic pressure difference, and then the in-situ modified nano-particle CO 2 foam plugging system A1 and CO 2 were injected to test the injection pressure difference, and the experimental results are as Figure 7 shown. It can be seen from the experimental results that the pressure difference was very low at the beginning of water injection, only a few KPa. When the in-situ modified nano-particle CO 2 foam plugging system A1 and CO 2 were injected, the injection pressure difference reached up to 80 KPa at most. This shows that CO 2 and the in-situ modified nano-particles formed a foam system in the core porous medium, increasing the flow resistance.

However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the relevant art.
