Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of oil field chemistry, in particular to a high-molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particle and a preparation process thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Traditional oil field plugging agents mainly rely on polyacrylamide (PAM) materials to achieve plugging through ionic groups (such as carboxyl) or rigid crosslinking networks. However, in high-salt reservoirs, ionic polymers are severely contracted and lose elasticity due to charge shielding effect, resulting in plugging failure; while rigid particles covalently crosslinked can withstand pressure for a short period of time, but lack environmental responsiveness and need to be treated with strong acid / oxidizing agent for plugging removal, which can easily damage the reservoir. The plugging agents developed in recent years focus on a single response mechanism (such as pH or temperature response), which still has significant limitations: for example, pH-responsive materials can remove plugging under acidic conditions, but cannot cope with high-salt environments; reduction-responsive materials rely on disulfide bonds, but lack salt-resistant support skeletons.
[0003] The patent application file with publication number CN107474807A discloses a fracture-cave type reservoir flow channel adjusting agent, which comprises a carrying liquid and a plugging particle, wherein the carrying liquid comprises a polymer and water in a ratio of (0-3):(97-100); the plugging particle is a viscoelastic particle mixture comprising a high-molecular polymer, calcium carbonate and bentonite in a ratio of (95-100):(0-5):(0-5); and the ratio of the carrying liquid to the plugging particle is (10-100):(0-90). The fracture-cave type reservoir flow channel adjusting agent of the present application is suitable for the flow channel of a reservoir with high temperature and high salinity, and can achieve step-by-step plugging, but it is difficult to achieve high plugging rate and does not have self-repairing ability, resulting in insufficient stability.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a high-molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particle and a preparation process thereof to solve the problems existing in the prior art. SUMMARY
[0005] Therefore, the present application provides a high-molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particle and a preparation process thereof, which can achieve the purposes of good stability and high plugging efficiency of the high-molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particle.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purposes, the present application provides a preparation process of a high-molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particle, which comprises the following steps:
[0007] Step S1, β-cyclodextrin and N-(adamantane-1-yl)prop-2-enamide are added to deionized water, heated and stirred, and then allowed to stand to obtain an inclusion compound; the inclusion compound is added to deionized water, and then acrylamide and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide are added in sequence and stirred uniformly to obtain a pre-reaction solution;
[0008] Step S2, adding phosphate buffer and polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution to the pre-reaction solution, supplementing deionized water, purging nitrogen to remove oxygen, obtaining the aqueous phase; mixing liquid paraffin, cyclohexane and Span-80 and stirring to obtain the oil phase by cooling; slowly adding the aqueous phase into the oil phase, controlling the temperature in ice bath, and homogenizing to obtain the emulsion;
[0009] Step S3, adding the mixed solution of tert-butyl hydroperoxide and ascorbic acid to the emulsion, stirring under nitrogen protection, after the reaction, breaking the emulsion, centrifuging, washing, drying, crushing and sieving to obtain the high-molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particles.
[0010] The β-cyclodextrin has a hydrophobic cavity, and the adamantane group in N-(adamantane-1-yl)prop-2-enamide can be embedded in the cavity of the β-cyclodextrin by hydrophobic interaction to form an inclusion compound, and the acrylamide group can also participate in the copolymerization reaction to fix the inclusion compound on the backbone of the polymer. In a high-salt environment, the salting-out effect of salt ions can strengthen the hydrophobic interaction, and the hydrophobic interaction increases with the increase of salt concentration, which can promote the improvement of the stability of the inclusion compound. At the same time, this combination can form reversible physical cross-linking in the polymer network, thereby endowing the polymer with good toughness and self-repairing property, and improving the salt resistance and viscoelasticity of the obtained particles.
[0011] Acrylamide, as the main polymerization monomer of the viscoelastic particles, rapidly polymerizes under free radical conditions to form a linear polyacrylamide backbone, providing a basic structure for the cross-linked polymer network, and can absorb water molecules through hydrogen bonding, thereby swelling and filling cracks in a low-salt environment. N,N'-methylene bisacrylamide as a covalent cross-linking agent constructs a cross-linked network to maintain the basic structure of the viscoelastic particles and resist high shear force.
[0012] Span-80 (sorbitan monooleate) as a low HLB value surfactant can form a tight monomolecular film at the oil-water interface to stabilize the W / O emulsion. Liquid paraffin and cyclohexane are not soluble in water and have moderate viscosity, which can adjust the polarity of the oil phase, and together with Span-80, a stable oil-in-water emulsion can be prepared to provide a dispersion template for polymerization, promote the uniformity of the particle size of the viscoelastic particles, and balance the permeability and plugging efficiency.
[0013] Tert-butyl hydroperoxide generates free radicals under the reduction of ascorbic acid, which is suitable for low-temperature slow polymerization, avoiding the chain heterogeneity and uneven cross-linking caused by high-temperature polymerization, and is helpful to obtain viscoelastic particles with uniform structure and narrow particle size distribution range.
[0014] Preferably, in step S1, the speed of heating and stirring is 150-250 rpm, the temperature is 45-55℃, and the time is 2-3h; the standing time is 12-14h.
[0015] The β-cyclodextrin and N-(adamantane-1-yl)prop-2-enamide form inclusion compounds by hydrophobic interaction.
[0016] Preferably, in the step S1, N,N'-bis(acryloyl)cystamine is added when acrylamide and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide are added.
[0017] As a crosslinking agent, N,N'-bis(acryloyl)cystamine can participate in free radical copolymerization to form a covalent crosslinking network, and the double sulfur bond contained therein can be partially broken and recombined in a reducing environment (such as an oil reservoir containing sulfide), realizing controllable degradation of the viscoelastic particles, avoiding permanent plugging, and enhancing the crosslinking density of the initial crosslinking network.
[0018] Preferably, in the step S2, 3-(acrylamidophenyl)boronic acid is dissolved in the phosphate buffer.
[0019] By using 3-(acrylamidophenyl)boronic acid, boronic acid groups are introduced into the viscoelastic particles, and the boronic acid can form a reversible boronic ester bond with polyvinyl alcohol, dynamically adjusting the crosslinking state, improving the self-adaptive and self-healing performance of the crosslinking network, and enhancing the stability of the viscoelastic particles. In an acidic oil reservoir, the dynamic boronic ester bond breaks, and the viscoelastic particles shrink to reduce the plugging strength, while in an alkaline condition, the viscoelastic particles restore viscoelasticity, realizing degradable and repairable viscoelastic particles, avoiding permanent plugging, and improving the flexibility of oil reservoir exploitation.
[0020] Preferably, in the step S2, the speed of mixing and stirring is 200-300 rpm, and the time is 10-20 min.
[0021] Preferably, in the step S2, the speed of dropping is 1-2 mL / min.
[0022] Preferably, in the step S3, the speed of stirring reaction is 150-250 rpm, the time is 22-26 h, and the temperature is 4℃.
[0023] Preferably, in the step S3, the speed of centrifugation is 4000-5000 rpm, and the time is 5-15 min.
[0024] Preferably, in the step S3, the particle size of the high-molecular anti-salt viscoelastic particles is 20-100 μm.
[0025] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the application further provides a high-molecular anti-salt viscoelastic particle prepared by the preparation process of the high-molecular anti-salt viscoelastic particle, which comprises the following components in parts by weight:
[0026] The emulsion is 290-300 parts, the tert-butyl hydroperoxide solution is 2-3 parts, and the ascorbic acid solution is 2-3 parts.
[0027] The high-molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particle prepared by the preparation process has good plugging effect.
[0028] Preferably, the emulsion comprises the following raw materials by weight: 100 parts of water phase and 200 parts of oil phase.
[0029] The raw materials of the above components can make the emulsion achieve better effect, and promote the performance of the prepared high-molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particle to achieve better effect.
[0030] The above technical solutions of the present application at least include the following beneficial effects:
[0031] 1. The inclusion complex is formed by the hydrophobic interaction between the beta-cyclodextrin and the adamantane group in N-(adamantane-1-yl)prop-2-enamide. This combination can form reversible physical cross-linking in the polymer network, thereby endowing the polymer with good toughness and self-repairing property, and improving the salt resistance and viscoelasticity of the obtained particle.
[0032] 2. The cross-linking network is formed by the physical cross-linking brought by the inclusion complex and the dynamic cross-linking in the emulsion, which promotes the viscoelastic particle to maintain stable cross-linking structure in a high-salt ion environment, and significantly improves the viscoelasticity and stability of the viscoelastic particle in a salt solution.
[0033] 3. The free radicals are generated by the reduction of tert-butyl hydroperoxide under ascorbic acid, which is suitable for low-temperature slow polymerization, avoids the chain inhomogeneity and cross-linking inhomogeneity caused by high-temperature polymerization, and helps to obtain viscoelastic particles with uniform structure and narrow particle size distribution range.

[0073] Under nitrogen protection, 0.3 mL of tert-butyl hydroperoxide was dissolved in 3 mL of deionized water to obtain a tert-butyl hydroperoxide solution; 0.6 g of ascorbic acid was dissolved in 3 mL of deionized water to obtain an ascorbic acid solution; 2.5 mL of the tert-butyl hydroperoxide solution and 2.5 mL of the ascorbic acid solution were then added to 295 mL of the emulsion, the temperature was maintained at 4°C, and the mixture was stirred at 350 rpm for 24 hours. After the reaction was completed, ethanol was added to break the emulsion, and the mixture was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 minutes to obtain microspheres, which were then washed, dried, crushed, and sieved to obtain 20-100 μm polymer salt-resistant viscoelastic particles.
[0074] The present invention also carried out comparative examples and related tests.
[0075] Comparative Example 1
[0076] The only difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is that no inclusion compound was prepared, and only acrylamide and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide were used to prepare the pre-reaction liquid. Other compositions and preparation processes were the same as those in Example 1, and polymer salt-resistant viscoelastic particles were prepared.
[0077] Comparative Example 2
[0078] The difference between Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 is that tert-butyl hydroperoxide and ascorbic acid are not used for low-temperature initiation, but ammonium persulfate is used as an initiator for thermal initiation. The other compositions and preparation process are the same as those of Example 1, and polymer salt-resistant viscoelastic particles are prepared.
[0079] Performance testing
[0080] The solid content of the polymer salt-resistant viscoelastic particles prepared in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-2 was tested. 2.0 g of the sample was placed in a weighing bottle and weighed, which was recorded as W1. The weighing bottle was placed in a constant temperature drying oven at 120° C. for 2 h, and then weighed again, which was recorded as W2.
[0081] Solid content = ×100%;
[0082] The apparent viscosity of the salt-resistant polymer viscoelastic particles prepared in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-2 was tested. 15 g of a 5000 mg / L mother liquor was prepared and transferred to 35 g of standard saline to obtain a 1500 mg / L test solution. The water bath temperature was set to 70 ± 0.1°C and maintained at this temperature for 0.5 h. The rotor was connected to a Brookfield viscometer, and approximately 16 mL of the 1500 mg / L test solution was transferred into the measuring cylinder. The temperature was maintained for 10 min, and then the speed was set to 6 rpm. The viscosity was measured using the Brookfield viscometer. Three replicate samples were measured, and the arithmetic mean was taken as the measurement result.
[0083] Dissolution time test was carried out on the polymer salt-resistant viscoelastic particles prepared in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-2. The sample was dissolved in brine, and a constant speed stirrer was started at 25℃ in a water bath. The stirring rate was 500±20 rpm. At 20 min, 30 min, 40 min, 50 min and 60 min, the viscosity of the solution was measured by a Brookfield viscometer. When the viscosity values at two time points met the formula |η n -η n-1 |η n < 3% (n≥2), it was considered that the sample was completely dissolved within time Tn.
[0084] Plugging rate test was carried out on the polymer salt-resistant viscoelastic particles prepared in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-2. 10 g of ceramic was added to an acid burette, and the ceramic was tightly laid on the bottom of the burette by gently shaking the burette. The bottom valve of the burette was closed. 25 mL of deionized water was added to the burette, and the bottom valve was fully opened. At the same time, a stopwatch was started. The amount of filtration loss was recorded at 7.5 min, which was recorded as F1. 0.5 g of the sample was added to a 250 mL beaker, followed by 99.5 g of deionized water. After stirring for 5 min by a magnetic stirrer, the sample was swelled at room temperature for 2 h. The same test method was used, and the filtration loss was recorded as F2 using the sample solution instead of deionized water.
[0085] Plugging rate = (F2-F1) / F1 × 100%;
[0086] The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0087] Table 1
[0088]
[0089] As shown in Table 1, the apparent viscosity and plugging rate of the polymer salt-resistant viscoelastic particles prepared in Comparative Example 1 decreased significantly, indicating that the preparation of the inclusion compound can improve the plugging efficiency of the polymer salt-resistant viscoelastic particles and form a dynamic cross-linked three-dimensional network with dynamic borate ester and disulfide bond to improve the viscosity. Compared with Example 7, the dissolution time of Comparative Example 2 decreased significantly, indicating that low-temperature initiation by tert-butyl hydroperoxide and ascorbic acid can avoid the chain heterogeneity and cross-linking heterogeneity caused by high-temperature polymerization, which is helpful to obtain viscoelastic particles with uniform structure.
[0090] Compared with Example 7, no N,N'-bis(acryloyl)cystamine is added as a crosslinking agent in Example 8, so that the plugging efficiency of the prepared high molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particles is reduced, which indicates that N,N'-bis(acryloyl)cystamine can participate in the formation of a covalent crosslinking network through free radical copolymerization, promote the enhancement of the crosslinking network density, and improve the plugging efficiency. It can be seen from the performance test results of the high molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particles prepared in Examples 1-7 that the performances of the high molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particles are good, which indicates that the prepared high molecular salt-resistant viscoelastic particles can achieve the purposes of good stability and high plugging efficiency.
[0091] The above is the preferred embodiment of the present application, and those skilled in the art can make several improvements and refinements without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered within the protection scope of the present application.
