Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of treating agents for oilfield drilling fluids, and in particular relates to an emulsifier for high temperature resistant oil-based drilling fluids, a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] During the drilling process of shale gas horizontal wells, fragile zones and other complex formations, water has a dispersing effect on clay, and the use of conventional water-based drilling fluid systems is prone to clay hydration and dispersion, causing wellbore instability, especially in formations with a high content of shale, which can easily affect downhole construction safety. The continuous phase in oil-based drilling fluid is diesel (or white oil), and clay does not hydrate and disperse in oil-based drilling fluid, which is more conducive to wellbore stability; and compared with water-based drilling fluid, oil-based drilling fluid has good lubricity, low friction, and is conducive to reservoir protection. It has been widely used in drilling in various complex formations. At present, the oil-based drilling fluid used on site is an oil-in-water emulsion system with an oil-water ratio generally between 7:3 and 9:1. In order to ensure the stable performance of the oil-based drilling fluid, an oil-based emulsifier must be used to reduce the oil-water interfacial tension and maintain the stability of the emulsion.
[0003] With the development of drilling technology, the number of deep wells and ultra-deep wells is increasing. Affected by the geothermal gradient, the bottom hole temperature is getting higher and higher, and the bottom hole temperature of some wells has exceeded 200°C. Therefore, for oil-based drilling fluids, ensuring the stability of the emulsion at high temperature is the primary issue in the drilling process of oil-based drilling fluids, and oil-based emulsifiers are the key.
[0004] The Chinese patent with application number 201810900379.X discloses an oil-based emulsifier, which is synthesized from cardanol, epichlorohydrin, dimethylamine and 1,3-propane sultone, and has a temperature resistance of up to 180°C; the Chinese patent with application number 201610704229.2 discloses an emulsifier, which is synthesized from oxidized tall oil fatty acid, diethylenetriamine, tetraethylenepentamine, p-methylpropanesulfonic acid and chlorosulfonic acid, and has good emulsification stability and a temperature resistance of up to 200°C. The oil-based emulsifiers synthesized in the above two schemes are mainly oil-soluble molecules with linear or comb-shaped structures, and have insufficient temperature resistance, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-temperature formation drilling above 200°C.
