Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of nanomaterials, and in particular relates to a slow-release oil-soluble quantum dot tracer, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Quantum dots are semiconductor nanocrystals with size-dependent optical and electronic properties. When the size of a quantum dot (semiconductor nanocrystal) is reduced to below the exciton Bohr radius, a quantum confinement effect occurs, confining the exciton within a specific three-dimensional space. This results in their optical properties being highly dependent on their size. Consequently, quantum dots are characterized by their small size (<10nm) and excitation-light-dependent photoluminescence. Consequently, quantum dots are often used in fields such as photoelectric conversion and biomarkers.

[0003] In oilfield development and production, tracers can be deployed in oil well production tubing strings, either as pup joints or integrated tracer strings, to monitor fluid production profiles. However, currently used chemical tracers generally lack the required slow-release performance and detection accuracy, making it difficult to effectively distinguish differences in fluid production between horizontal well sections.

[0004] By placing quantum dot tracers at corresponding locations in underground horizontal wells and utilizing different excitation wavelengths of various water-soluble and oil-soluble quantum dots, dynamic monitoring of fluid production in different horizontal sections is achieved. The slow-release properties also enable long-term monitoring. This technology offers high monitoring accuracy, a simple analysis process, and stable, real-time monitoring without shutting down the well.

[0005] Therefore, it is very necessary and of great significance to develop a method for preparing quantum dot tracers with narrow tracing half-width, low detection limit and a distinguishable tracing wavelength range. Summary of the Invention
