AI Technical Summary
Existing wall-fixing agents have insufficient heat resistance under high temperature conditions and cannot effectively maintain the stability of the wellbore walls of deep and ultra-deep well formations, leading to complex accidents such as wellbore instability and leakage.
A temperature-resistant and salt-resistant wall-solidifying agent with strong adsorption and high cohesion was prepared by free radical copolymerization of components such as acrylic acid, N-hydroxymethyl acrylamide, N-[2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethyl]-2-acrylamide, octadecyl vinyl ether and a complexing agent. Functional groups such as hydroxyl groups, amide groups and catechol groups were used to form hydrogen bonds, π-π interactions and coordination bonds on the rock surface, thereby enhancing adhesion and cross-linking to form a stable cementing structure.
Under high temperature and high salt conditions of 200°C, the wall solidifier can effectively seal rock micropores and microcracks, maintain well wall stability, prevent drilling fluid loss, and ensure safe drilling in deep formations. It is also simple to prepare, environmentally friendly, and inexpensive.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a temperature-resistant and salt-resistant wall-solidifying agent for water-based drilling fluid in a 10,000-meter deep well, a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of drilling. Background Art
[0002] Drilling fluid is the lifeblood of drilling operations, lubricating the drill bit, cleaning the bottomhole, balancing formation pressure, and maintaining wellbore stability. Safe and efficient drilling requires the support of high-performance drilling fluid. Deep and ultra-deep formations experience the complex and harsh conditions of high temperature, high pressure, and high salinity. Especially when drilling into highly permeable sandstone, conglomerate, naturally fractured carbonate formations, and weakly cemented, brittle shale formations, water-based drilling fluid can easily penetrate the formation through rock pores and fractures, causing formation hydration and wellbore instability, leading to complex downhole accidents such as well collapse, stuck drill bit, and borehole reduction.
[0003] Currently, chemical cementing agents have become a key treatment agent for stabilizing wellbore walls. Chinese patent document CN117986520A discloses an environmentally friendly lignin-based strong cementing agent, prepared from 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate and lignin. The agent contains hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups such as hydroxyl groups and benzene rings, which can effectively repel water molecules between the agent and the rock, and form a three-dimensional network structure through hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic interactions, thereby improving the bonding strength between the agent and the rock. However, because lignin contains easily hydrolyzed ether bonds, the agent has a temperature resistance of only 150°C. Chinese patent document CN116589632A discloses a high-temperature-resistant, low-viscosity hyperbranched agent prepared from dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, polyethylene glycol diacrylate, glycine, 3-aminopropane sulfonic acid, and tannic acid. The hydrophobic skeleton formed by the ester bonds and benzene rings in the wall-fixing agent quickly aggregates and forms agglomerates, which repel water molecules between the wall-fixing agent and the rock particles. This reduces the destructive effect of free water molecules on the rock's cementation and effectively bonds the rock. Because the ester group is easily hydrolyzed at high temperatures, this wall-fixing agent is only resistant to temperatures of 180°C.
[0004] Chinese patent document CN115093837A discloses a wall-fixing agent, which is compounded from redispersible latex powder, rubber, thermosetting resin, epoxy resin, chloroprene latex, and nano-silica, and has a temperature resistance of only 120°C. Chinese patent document CN115057967A discloses a microgel chemical wall-fixing agent, which is prepared by reverse emulsion polymerization of cellulose, polyacrylamide, and xanthan gum macromolecules with vinyl monomers such as acrylamide, acrylic acid, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid, and acrylates. Cellulose, polyacrylamide, xanthan gum, and acrylates have poor heat resistance, and the wall-fixing agent has a temperature resistance of only 180°C. Chinese patent document CN116063991A discloses an adhesive cementing wall-fixing agent for shale formations, which is composed of an adhesive wall-protecting agent, a cementing wall-fixing agent, and a accelerator. The adhesive cementing agent is a polymer of styrene, butyl acrylate, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid, a cationic structuring agent, and a crosslinking agent. The cementing agent is alginate, at least one of modified alginate, propylene glycol alginate, acrylic acid, polyacrylic acid, and methacrylic acid. The accelerator is at least one of calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium sulfate, and magnesium sulfate. The main component of the cementing agent is alginate, a polysaccharide compound that decomposes violently above 100°C. Therefore, the adhesive cementing agent has a temperature resistance of only 120°C. Chinese patent document CN111748330A discloses a water-based drilling fluid cementing agent prepared by free radical polymerization of acrylamide, a binder, dimethyldiallylammonium chloride, acrylic acid, and 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid. The binder is at least one of vinyl alcohols, vinyl esters, polyvinyl alcohol, vinyl alcohol, vinyl acetate, and diethyl acetate. This wall solidifying agent can effectively increase viscosity, improve shear strength, and reduce filtration loss, but its temperature resistance is only 150°C.
[0005] Although the aforementioned wall-fixing agents can achieve a cementing effect, their temperature resistance is insufficient and cannot meet the drilling requirements under high-temperature conditions of 200°C. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a cementing wall-fixing agent with a temperature resistance of up to 200°C to support the smooth drilling of deep and ultra-deep wells. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, especially the technical problem that the existing wall fixing agents have insufficient temperature resistance and cannot effectively maintain the stability of the well wall in high-temperature (200°C) formations, the present invention provides a temperature-resistant and salt-resistant wall fixing agent for water-based drilling fluids in 10,000-meter deep wells, and a preparation method and application thereof, and in particular provides a temperature-resistant and salt-resistant, strong adsorption, and high cohesion cementing wall fixing agent for water-based drilling fluids in 10,000-meter deep wells, and a preparation method and application thereof.

The mixture was sheared at a stirring rate of 2000 rpm for 20 min to uniformly disperse the monomers to obtain a monomer solution. The monomer solution was transferred to a three-necked flask, and 0.20 g of initiator was added (the initiator was a mixture of ammonium persulfate, sodium bisulfite, and 2,2'-azobisisobutylamidine dihydrochloride in a mass ratio of 2:1:2). The reaction was continued at 75°C, a stirring rate of 200 rpm, and a nitrogen atmosphere for 6 hours to obtain a light yellow viscous reaction product; the reaction product was washed twice with methanol, dried to constant weight at 75°C, and crushed to obtain a temperature-resistant and salt-resistant wall-fixing agent A6 for water-based drilling fluids in 10,000-meter deep wells.

[0083] Application Test Example 1: Evaluation of Drilling Fluid Rheological Loss Performance
[0084] Preparation of bentonite-based slurry: At room temperature, 400 g of bentonite and 14.0 g of Na2CO3 were added to 10000 mL of deionized water, stirred at 3000 rpm for 2 h, and then statically cured for 24 h to obtain the bentonite-based slurry.
[0085] Preparation of saturated salt bentonite slurry: At room temperature, 144 g of NaCl was added to 400 mL of bentonite slurry and stirred at 3000 rpm for 20 min to obtain saturated salt bentonite slurry.
[0086] 8 g of the wall-fixing agents A1-A6 in the examples and 8 g of the wall-fixing agents D1-D9 in the comparative examples were added to 400 g of saturated salt bentonite-based slurry, and stirred at 6000 rpm for 20 min to obtain drilling fluids F1-F6 and DF1-DF9.
[0087] The drilling fluid was placed in a stainless steel aging tank and tumbled at a constant temperature of 200°C for 16 hours. After aging, the fluid was cooled to room temperature and stirred at 10,000 rpm for 20 minutes. The apparent viscosity (AV, mPa·s), plastic viscosity (PV, mPa·s), dynamic shear force (YP, Pa), and API fluid loss (FL) of the drilling fluid before and after high-temperature aging were measured according to the petroleum and natural gas industry standard GB / T 29170-2012, "Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry - Laboratory Testing of Drilling Fluids." API , the results are shown in Table 1-2.

[0089]
[0090] Table 2 Performance test of drilling fluid with comparative example wall solidifying agent
[0091]
[0092] From the experimental results, it can be seen that when the wall-fixing agent of the present invention is added in an amount of 2% in the saturated salt-based slurry, the apparent viscosity, plastic viscosity and shear force of the saturated salt-based slurry before and after aging at 200°C are all improved to a certain extent, and the filtration loss is greatly reduced. This shows that the strong adsorption and high cohesion cementing wall-fixing agent of the present invention has good viscosity-increasing and shear-enhancing effects in saturated salt-based slurry, and can effectively reduce the filtration loss. The wall-fixing agent of the present invention contains highly adsorbable hydroxyl, amino and carboxyl groups, which enable the wall-fixing agent to be tightly adsorbed on the surface of the clay, and the hydrophobic groups form an associative structure to jointly construct the internal grid structure of the drilling fluid with the clay, thereby maintaining the stability of the internal grid structure under the high temperature and high salt conditions of the drilling fluid. At the same time, the strong adsorption and high cohesion cementing wall-fixing agent can participate in the formation of the mud cake and cement the water-loss pores and cracks inside the mud cake, thereby effectively reducing filtration loss. From the comparative examples, it can be seen that the wall-fixing agents lacking key monomers such as acrylic acid, N-hydroxymethyl acrylamide, N-(2-[3,4-dihydroxyphenyl]ethyl) acrylamide, octadecyl vinyl ether and complexing agents, or the wall-fixing agents prepared by reducing the amount of key monomers, all failed to achieve effective viscosity increase, shear strength improvement and filtration loss reduction effects.
[0093] Application Test Example 2: Evaluation of Drilling Fluid Plugging Performance
[0094] Sand bed plugging experiment: Drilling fluids F1-F6 of the examples and drilling fluids DF1-DF9 of comparative examples 1-9 were prepared according to the method in application test example 1, aged at 200°C for 16 hours, cooled to room temperature and taken out. 300 cm3 of the liquid was placed in the clean transparent glass filling tube of the FA.BX medium pressure sand bed plugging instrument. 3 80 mesh quartz sand, flatten and compact, then add 150cm 3 The depth of penetration of the aged drilling fluid into the sand bed was tested at room temperature and 0.69±0.03MPa for 30min.
[0095] Microporous filter membrane blocking experiment: Wall-fixing agents A1-A6 from the examples and wall-fixing agents D1-D9 from comparative examples 1-9 were added to 400 mL of deionized water. Then, 144 g of NaCl was added to prepare saturated salt solutions containing the wall-fixing agents, FL1-FL6 and DFL1-DFL9. FL1-FL6 and DFL1-DFL9 were placed in a stainless steel aging tank and aged at 200°C for 16 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the samples were removed and the API filtration loss of FL1-FL6 and DFL1-DFL9 was measured at 25°C and 100 psi. The filter paper used was a polytetrafluoroethylene microporous filter membrane with a pore size of 1 μm. The results are shown in Table 3.
[0096] Table 3 Drilling fluid plugging performance test
[0097]
[0098] The experimental results show that when the wall-fixing agent of the present invention is not added, the drilling fluid filtrate completely penetrates the sand bed. After adding the wall-fixing agent of the present invention, the penetration depth of the sand bed of the drilling fluid is reduced. The microporous filter membrane blocking experiment also shows the same result. This shows that the wall-fixing agent of the present invention has an excellent blocking effect and can effectively prevent the loss of drilling fluid to the high permeability layer. If the wall-fixing agent of the present invention lacks key monomers or key materials, the blocking effect will be deteriorated.

[0100] Compressive strength testing: Shale columns (25 cm x 30 cm) were immersed in drilling fluids F1-F6 and DF1-DF9 (prepared according to the method in Application Test Example 1) and aged at 200°C for 16 hours. After aging, the columns were cooled to room temperature and vacuum-dried at 90°C for 12 hours. Their compressive strength was then measured. The results are shown in Table 4.
[0101] Point load strength test: Shale slices (25 mm x 3 mm) were immersed in drilling fluids F1-F6 from the examples and DF1-DF9 from the comparative examples (prepared according to the method in Application Test Example 1) and aged at 200°C for 16 hours. After aging, the slices were cooled to room temperature and vacuum-dried at 90°C for 12 hours. The point load strength of the shale slices was measured using the nanoindentation module of a multifunctional surface tester. A triangular pyramid diamond indenter was used at 60°C, with a load increment rate of 100 N / min and a maximum load of 200 N. The experimental results are shown in Table 4.
[0102] Overlap shear strength test: The drilling fluids F1-F6 of the embodiments and the drilling fluids DF1-DF9 of the comparative examples (prepared according to the method in Application Test Example 1) were evenly spread on the single overlapping surface of the artificial overlapped specimens (shale slices) in accordance with the "Determination of tensile shear strength of adhesives" (GB7124-2008) and the "Determination of chemical resistance of adhesives" (GB / T13353-92). The overlapped specimens were pressed at 10±0.5 MPa for 2 h, and then vacuum dried at 90°C for 12 h. A tensile force was applied parallel to the overlapped surface and in the direction of the principal axis of the specimen to test the overlap shear strength of the specimens. The experimental results are shown in Table 4.

[0104]
[0105] As can be known from the experimental results, the wall-fixing agent of the present invention is all conducive to improving the intensity of rock core and has excellent wall-fixing performance.The wall-fixing agent of the present invention contains strong adsorption groups such as hydroxyl, amino, and carboxyl, and has stronger adhesion to rock surface.After the wall-fixing agent is adsorbed on the rock surface and inside the pores, on the one hand, the wall-fixing agent can block the rock pores, consolidate the rock core by strong cohesion, and maintain rock strength. On the other hand, the hydrophobic group of the wall-fixing agent can form a hydrophobic layer on the rock surface, produce an isolation effect to water molecules, and maintain the bonding force between the wall-fixing agent and the rock. During drilling, the wall-fixing agent of the present invention can adsorb and block the micropores inside the rock, and then cement the rock, maintain the compressive strength of the rock, prevent the drilling fluid from invading the stratum interior, and effectively prevent the well wall from collapsing.
[0106] In summary, the strong adsorption and high cohesion cementitious wall fixing agent of the present invention is temperature-resistant up to 200°C and salt-resistant up to saturation. It has good viscosity-increasing, shear-enhancing and filtration-loss reduction effects under high-temperature and high-salt conditions. It can effectively adsorb, seal and cement the micropores and microcracks inside the rock, maintain the stability of the well wall, prevent drilling fluid leakage, and provide strong technical support for safe and efficient deep well drilling.
