Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas, and specifically relates to a degradable lost circulation material for protecting oil and gas reservoirs during drilling and its preparation method. Background Technique

[0002] The ultimate goal of drilling and completion is to drill through the reservoir and form a channel for oil and gas flow, and establish a good production relationship for oil and gas wells. Damage to oil and gas reservoirs will greatly affect the productivity of oil and gas wells, mainly manifested as a decrease in the permeability of oil and gas reservoirs. In recent years, domestic and foreign scholars have conducted extensive and in-depth research on the mechanism of reservoir damage and have obtained some recognized conclusions:

[0003] ① Solid particles in external fluids such as drilling fluids and completion fluids and loose particles originally in the reservoir migrate under external force, directly blocking the pores and throats of the rock;

[0004] ② Moisture in external fluids causes clay minerals in the reservoir to hydrate and swell, reducing the pores and throats and hindering the flow of oil and gas;

[0005] ③ Physical and chemical reactions occur between external fluids and reservoir fluids, generating insoluble inorganic salts and organic matter precipitates or forming high-viscosity emulsions, blocking the pores of reservoir rocks and increasing the resistance to oil and gas flow;

[0006] ④ Filtrate in external fluids invades the reservoir, causing wettability reversal of the reservoir, reducing the relative permeability of oil and gas, and affecting the oil recovery rate.

[0007] The traditional shielding temporary plugging technology for protecting oil and gas reservoirs selects appropriate particle sizes of oil and gas reservoir protection additives according to the pore throat distribution characteristics of the reservoir to match the pore throat diameter distribution of the oil and gas reservoir, achieving effective temporary plugging. The key to the shielding temporary plugging technology for protecting oil and gas reservoirs is that there are three solid particles in the drilling and completion fluid: bridging particles with sufficient quantity and capable of stably bridging on the pore throats of the oil reservoir; filling particles smaller than the bridging particles; highly dispersed fine particles capable of deforming under pressure difference and high temperature, namely denatured particles. Bridging particles are generally selected as light and ultrafine calcium carbonate, filling particles are small particles in the drilling fluid, and denatured particles are selected from materials that soften at formation temperature. Generally, sulfonated asphalt is used, and oil-soluble resins can also be selected. The three particles act simultaneously to form a dense shielding ring to prevent harmful solids and filtrate from further contaminating the oil and gas reservoir, thereby eliminating the damage to the oil and gas reservoir caused by the increase in soaking time. After completion, the shielding ring is removed to restore the permeability of the reservoir, achieving the purpose of effectively protecting the reservoir. The completion method generally uses perforation.

[0008] Chinese Patent CN116445138B discloses a plugging agent and its preparation method and application. The plugging agent mainly consists of diatomite, hydrophobic nano-silica, lipophilic flaky molybdenum disulfide, and lipophilic calcium carbonate. When used in oil-based drilling fluids, it has good dispersibility and stability, and also has good plugging effect and anti-friction and anti-wear performance, but this plugging agent cannot be degraded. Chinese Patent CN116285917A discloses a high-temperature-resistant plugging isolation fluid. Through the synergistic effect of weighting agents, suspension stabilizers, plugging agents, flushing agents, and defoaming agents, it can ensure a plugging strength of 1 - 5 MPa in the range of 30°C to 160°C, but it also cannot be degraded and is difficult to deal with the problem of self-degradation after plugging for a period of time in some cases.

[0009] In summary, it is crucial to develop a degradable lost circulation material during drilling with a simple construction method and effective reservoir protection. Summary of the Invention

[0059] Its preparation method is basically the same as that in Example 1, the difference is that calcium β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate is not added in step S1.

[0060] Comparative Example 2: Different composition of calcium β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate

[0061] A lost circulation material, whose components are basically the same as those in Example 1, the difference is that the calcium β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate consists of 100wt% of calcium β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate with a particle size of 160 - 500 mesh.

[0062] Its preparation method is the same as that in Example 1.

[0072] Test Example 1: Evaluation of plugging effect

[0073] In this test example, the plugging agents prepared in Examples 1 - 3 and Comparative Examples 1 - 5 were evaluated for their plugging effect, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0074] It was measured with a threaded cup - lid type permeability plugging instrument, and the high - temperature and high - pressure filtration loss was measured according to Appendix J of GB / T 16783.1—2014 "Field Testing of Drilling Fluids - Part 1: Water - based Drilling Fluids", and the permeability plugging filtration loss and static filtration rate (leakage rate) were calculated.

[0076]

[0077] From the above results, it can be seen that the permeability plugging filtration loss of the lost - circulation - while - drilling agents prepared in Examples 1 - 3 is smaller, while that of Comparative Examples 1 - 5 is larger; the leakage rate of the lost - circulation - while - drilling agents prepared in Examples 1 - 3 is smaller, while that of Comparative Examples 1 - 5 is larger. In summary, the lost - circulation - while - drilling agent prepared by the present invention has a better lost - circulation - while - drilling effect.

[0078] Test Example 2: Degradation performance test

[0079] Place the lost circulation agents described in Examples 1 - 3 and Comparative Examples 1 - 5 into an aging tank, heat - roll them at a high temperature of 120 °C in a roller furnace for 6 h, and spray each lost circulation agent with 300 °C hot steam. Observe whether there are phenomena such as damage to the packer structure. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0080] As can be seen from the results in Table 2, the lost circulation agents prepared in the examples and comparative examples were damaged after being sprayed with high - temperature steam, indicating that the raw materials used in the present invention can be effectively degraded under high - temperature steam. In addition, the lost circulation agents described in Examples 1 - 3 have a faster degradation rate than those described in Comparative Examples 1 - 5 under high - temperature steam, which can save time and reduce costs.
