Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the prior art, the viscosity of the high-temperature gel acid system decreases rapidly during the heating process, and its shear resistance at high temperatures is poor. It is not suitable for use as a high-temperature on-line variable-viscosity acid for acidizing marine oil and gas reservoirs with temperatures exceeding 150°C. To improve the temperature resistance of the acid solution, it is necessary to improve the performance of the thickening agent. At present, most of the thickening agents used in on-site acidizing are prepared with powders, and the emulsion system is only simply emulsified on the basis of conventional cationic polymers, resulting in a temperature resistance that cannot reach 150°C.

[0082] Hereinafter, room temperature refers to 25 °C.

[0083] Example 1

[0084] According to Figure 2 the reaction equation shown below, allyl-β-cyclodextrin was prepared: Weigh 4.54 g of β-cyclodextrin and add it to a 150 mL beaker. Then slowly add dimethyl sulfoxide as a solvent until the β-cyclodextrin is completely dissolved. Subsequently, add 1.60 g of sodium hydroxide as a catalyst and stir evenly. Then, in an ice-water bath (temperature 0 to 10 °C), slowly add 4 mL of allyl bromide (i.e., 5.592 g) dropwise in two portions for reaction. After 1 h of full reaction, a large amount of yellow precipitate is obtained. Vacuum filter to remove the solvent, collect the filter residue, wash it with acetone, and dry it at 50 °C for 12 h to obtain white powdery allyl-β-cyclodextrin, which is stored in a sealed dry environment.

At room temperature, add methacrylamidopropyl dimethylamine, and then slowly add chlorobutane under stirring (the molar ratio of absolute ethanol, methacrylamidopropyl dimethylamine, and chlorobutane is 2.8:1.8:1). After stirring evenly, heat the system to raise the temperature to 75 °C and react at a constant temperature for 6.5 h. Then use a rotary evaporator to distill off the solvent and unreacted chlorobutane to obtain a pale yellow viscous liquid, namely (2-methyl-3-methacrylamidopropyl) butyl dimethyl ammonium chloride.

[0086] Preparation of polymer: First, the styrene product was pretreated, specifically by washing it 3 times with a 10 wt% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, washing it several times with pure water until neutral to remove the inhibitor therein, drying it, and subjecting it to vacuum distillation to collect the fraction at 59 to 60 °C and 53.3 kPa to obtain pretreated styrene.

[0087] Then, 0.08 g of acrylamide, 6.87 g of allyl-β-cyclodextrin, and 0.91 g of (2-methyl-3-acrylamidopropyl) butyldimethylammonium chloride were weighed separately and placed in a beaker. 85 mL of deionized water was added and stirred. After the three monomers were completely dissolved, they were poured into a three-necked flask containing a rotor. 0.04 g of initiator (a mixture of ammonium persulfate and sodium bisulfite with a mass ratio of 2:1) was added at one time. At the same time, 2.4 mL of styrene (i.e., 2.1648 g) was added dropwise. The reaction was carried out at 40 °C for 10 h to obtain a transparent gel; the obtained gel was washed with anhydrous ethanol 3 to 5 times, cut into pieces, and dried in an oven at 40 °C for 12 h to obtain a purified polymer with a weight-average molecular weight of 2.721×10 6 and it was a white solid. After being crushed and sieved, a fine powder of the polymer with a particle size of 80 to 200 mesh was obtained.

[0166] Test Example 2

[0167] Viscosity measurement, sedimentation stability measurement, dispersibility measurement at 8 min in acid, apparent viscosity measurement, and temperature and shear resistance measurement were carried out on the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5. The specific measurement methods for each index are as follows:

[0168] A. Determination of the bulk viscosity of the thickening composition

[0169] Use a six-speed rotational viscometer to measure the bulk viscosity of the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5, and read the pointer reading θ of the viscometer under the condition of a rotational speed of 100 r / min 100 .

[0170] The bulk viscosity (AV 本体 ) is calculated according to the following formula (1):

[0171] AV 本体 = θ 100 × 3 (1)

[0172] The results of the bulk viscosity determination are shown in Table 1.

[0173] B. Determination of the sedimentation stability of the thickening composition

[0174] At room temperature (25 °C), directly pour all the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 into 12 50-mL graduated cylinders, let stand for 15 min, and record the height of the supernatant in each graduated cylinder. The lower the height of the supernatant, the better the sedimentation stability. The specific results are shown in Table 1.

[0175] C. Determination of the dispersibility of the thickening composition in acid at 8 min

[0176] ⅰ Determination of the acid injection time into the well:

[0177] The target well is a pipe string with a diameter of 76 mm and a well depth of 5000 m. Gelled acid (obtained by mixing the thickening composition and 20 wt% hydrochloric acid in a volume ratio of 0.009:1) is used as the main acid, and the displacement is 4 m 3 / min. It can be calculated that:

[0178] The wellbore volume is (76 mm / 1000 / 2) 2 × 3.14 × 5000 m = 22.67 m 3 ;

[0179] The gelled acid injection time into the well is 22.67 m 3 ÷ 4 m 3 / min = 5.67 min;

[0180] Because there is a process of increasing the displacement speed, the injection time into the well is estimated to be 8 min;

[0181] ⅱ Place 500 mL of 20 wt% hydrochloric acid (i.e., an aqueous HCl solution with an HCl mass fraction of 20 wt%) in a beaker, stir the hydrochloric acid at a rotation speed of 400 r / min ± 5 r / min, add 4.5 mL of the thickening composition prepared in any one of Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 to the beaker, start timing when stirring begins, stir for 8 min, let it stand at room temperature (25 °C) and record the dispersion of the thickening composition in the acid solution, and observe whether there are obvious undissolved particles, precipitates, and floating substances in the acid solution;

[0182] According to the method in ⅱ, measure the dispersibility of the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 in hydrochloric acid at 8 min. The specific results are shown in Table 1.

[0183] D. Determination of the apparent viscosity of the thickening composition

[0184] Add the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 to 300 mL of 20 wt% hydrochloric acid at an addition amount of 4.5 mL each, and measure the reading θ at 100 r / min 100 '.

[0185] The apparent viscosity (AV 表观 ) is calculated according to the following formula (2):

[0186] AV 表观 = θ 100 '×3 (2)

[0187] The measurement results of the apparent viscosity are shown in Table 1.

[0188] E. Determination of the temperature and shear resistance of the thickening composition

[0189] Prepare 300 mL of 20 wt% hydrochloric acid and place it in a beaker, stir the hydrochloric acid at a rotation speed of 400 r / min ± 5 r / min, add an imidazoline corrosion inhibitor (a 150 °C corrosion inhibitor purchased from Dongying Shiprui Petroleum Engineering Technology Co., Ltd., with a dosage of 5.5 wt% of the mass of 20% hydrochloric acid), stir evenly, then add 4.5 mL of the thickening composition prepared in any one of Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5. After the thickening composition is completely dissolved, place it in a water bath at 25 °C ± 1 °C for 2 h to obtain a gelled acid; take 50 mL of the prepared gelled acid, put it into an acid-resistant rheometer, pressurize it with nitrogen to 0.7 MPa, and test the viscosity of the gelled acid after shearing at a constant shear rate of 150 °C and 170 s -1 for 120 min;

[0190] According to the above method, measure the temperature and shear resistance of the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5. The specific results are shown in Table 1.

[0191] Table 1. Performance evaluation of the thickening composition

[0192]

[0193] The data in Table 1 show that: at room temperature, the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 have high viscosity, good sedimentation stability, and good dispersibility in 20 wt% hydrochloric acid. Specifically, at room temperature: the bulk viscosity of the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 is 369 to 414 mPa·s, and the apparent viscosity is 51 to 58.5 mPa·s; the height of the supernatant after standing at room temperature for 15 minutes is 0, and there is no layering phenomenon; the dispersibility in 20 wt% hydrochloric acid is good within 8 min, and there are no obvious undissolved particles, precipitates, or floating substances. At a high temperature of 150 °C, the thickening compositions prepared in Examples 2 to 8 have strong shear resistance: the viscosity of the gel acid prepared from the thickening composition, 20 wt% hydrochloric acid, and 5.5 wt% imidazoline corrosion inhibitor after shearing at a constant shear rate of 170 s at 150 °C for 120 min is 17.98 to 20.35 mPa·s. Compared with Example 5, in Comparative Example 1, the polymer prepared in Example 1 in Example 5 was replaced with an equal mass of cationic polyacrylamide. Although the bulk viscosity of Comparative Example 1 is not much different from that of Example 5, its apparent viscosity decreased to 61% of that of Example 5, and its temperature and shear resistance decreased significantly. Compared with Example 5, the shear resistance performance of Comparative Example 1 decreased by 54%; compared with Example 6, in Comparative Example 2, the polymer prepared in Example 1 was also replaced with an equal amount of cationic polyacrylamide. Its bulk viscosity decreased by 18.7% compared with Example 6, and the sedimentation stability at room temperature also deteriorated significantly (layering occurred after standing at room temperature for 15 min, and the height of the supernatant reached 10 mL), and the dispersibility in acid became poor and it was easy to form clusters, so the temperature and shear resistance performance could not be measured. Comparing Comparative Example 1 with Example 5 and Comparative Example 2 with Example 6, it can be proved that the thickening composition prepared from the polymer of the present invention has better high temperature and shear resistance performance; -1 Compared with Example 5, in Comparative Example 3, the emulsifier in Example 5 (specifically, a mixture of isomeric tridecanol polyoxyethylene ether 1303 and isomeric tridecanol polyoxyethylene ether 1307) was replaced with an equal mass of isomeric tridecanol polyoxyethylene ether 1307. It was shown that the bulk viscosity of Comparative Example 3 at room temperature was 18.5% higher than that of Example 5, and the sedimentation stability decreased (specifically, layering occurred after standing at room temperature for 15 min, and the height of the supernatant reached 5 mL), and the dispersibility in 20 wt% hydrochloric acid was poor and it was easy to form clusters, so the temperature and shear resistance performance could not be measured, indicating that the type of emulsifier will affect the bulk viscosity, sedimentation stability, and dispersibility in acid of the thickening composition, and ultimately affect the temperature and shear resistance performance;

[0194]

[0195] ​Compared with Example 5, in Comparative Example 5, the activator ethanol was replaced with an equal mass of ethylene glycol, which significantly increased the bulk viscosity of the thickening composition. Specifically, it was 1.4 times the bulk viscosity of Example 5. The sedimentation stability also deteriorated, and stratification occurred after standing at room temperature for 15 minutes. The height of the supernatant liquid reached 7 mL. The dispersibility in acid became poor, and it was easy to form clusters, indicating that the activator would affect the bulk viscosity, sedimentation stability, and dispersibility in acid of the thickening composition, and ultimately affect the temperature and shear resistance performance;

[0196] Compared with Example 7, in Comparative Example 4, the solvents in Example 7 (specifically, No. 26 white oil and No. 3 white oil) were replaced with an equal mass of No. 3 white oil. Although its dispersibility in acid was good, it caused the bulk viscosity of the thickening composition to drop below 100 mPa·s, and the sedimentation stability also deteriorated (stratification occurred after standing at room temperature for 15 minutes, and the height of the supernatant liquid was 12 mL);

[0197] In summary, the types of polymer, solvent, activator, and emulsifier will all affect the viscosity, sedimentation stability, acid dispersibility, and temperature and shear resistance of the thickening composition. The thickening composition prepared by using the formula provided by the present invention can maintain a stable dispersion state for a long time, can be quickly dispersed in the acid solution, is not easy to agglomerate, and has good temperature and shear resistance, and can meet the requirements of deep acidification.

In addition, various changes can be made to the main body, spirit, and scope of the present invention to adapt to specific situations, materials, material compositions, and methods. All such changes are included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
