AI Technical Summary
In deep coalbed methane cementing wells, the poor hydrophilicity of the coal and rock surfaces and insufficient interfacial cementation strength lead to problems such as wellbore instability, gas channeling, and annular pressure. Traditional cementing pre-filling fluids cannot effectively improve wettability and rheological parameter matching, resulting in low displacement efficiency and potential safety hazards.
An organic composite reinforcing agent is used, which is formed by compounding components such as epoxy resin, silane coupling agent, and fibrous sepiolite to form a nano-hydration material. This improves the hydrophilicity of the coal and rock surface, enhances the interfacial bonding strength of the cement sheath, and shortens the setting time during cementing construction.
It significantly improves the interfacial bonding strength of cementing in deep coalbed methane wells and the flushing efficiency of drilling fluid filter cake, reduces construction risks and costs, and improves cementing quality.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas well technology, specifically to a method for preparing and applying an enhancer for pre-solidification fluid in deep coalbed methane wells. Background Technology
[0002] Coalbed methane (CBM), a by-product of coal mining, is an unconventional natural gas and a clean, high-quality energy source. my country possesses abundant CBM resources with enormous recoverable reserves, making it a crucial supplement to the country's energy supply. Deep CBM extraction primarily utilizes horizontal wells. Deep CBM reservoirs are characterized by complex geological structures, high temperature gradients, and a coal matrix dominated by organic matter with a strongly oleophilic and hydrophobic surface, resulting in extremely poor interfacial bonding with conventional cement slurry (which is hydrophilic). This leads to insufficient cementing strength at the interface, easily causing wellbore instability, gas channeling, and annular pressure issues. Furthermore, the low mechanical strength of the coal and rock formations during drilling easily creates a "bulge" wellbore, exacerbating the requirements for wellbore wetting modification and scour stability from the pre-flush fluid. Currently, coalbed methane cementing mainly faces problems such as coal and rock collapse, strong adhesion of drilling fluid mud cake, difficulty in flushing, low interface flushing efficiency, difficulty in ensuring the cementing quality of the reservoir's oleophilic interface, irregular well diameter caused by alternating coal and mud inclusions, limited construction displacement due to the high stress sensitivity of coal and rock, low displacement efficiency, and strong contamination of cement slurry by drilling mud, posing numerous safety hazards during cementing operations. For coalbed methane cementing, traditional cementing pre-fluid systems (such as conventional polymer-based pre-fluids and low-density drilling fluids) are insufficient to meet the requirements. For example, there are issues such as wettability mismatch, inability to effectively change the wetting state of the coal and rock surface, resulting in micro-annular gaps at the cement slurry-coal-rock interface; and mismatch with the rheological parameters of drilling fluid and cement slurry, resulting in low displacement efficiency and easy residual contamination.
[0003] Patent CN112521924A discloses a pre-filling fluid and its preparation method. By adding chloroprene latex as a surface modifier to the pre-filling fluid, the polymer in this system can play a synergistic role with the surfactant, which can tightly adsorb the coal core and densely spread it on the surface of the coal core, making the surface modification of the coal core uniform and effectively improving the cementing quality. Thus, the pre-filling fluid for coalbed methane well cementing provided by this invention not only has good compatibility with drilling fluid and cement slurry, but also has a good improvement on the surface wettability of coal, giving the coal core excellent water wettability and improving the cementing strength of the second interface of cementing. All performance indicators meet the requirements of field cementing. However, it does not have a certain sealing effect on the micro-fractures in the coal seam, and the leakage of the pre-filling fluid is relatively large, which can easily affect the later development.
[0004] In Zhao Qi's research on "Research on Pre-flush Fluid System for Improving the Bonding Quality of Cementing Interfaces in Multi-Coalbed Methane Wells," a composite interface enhancer was developed with the aim of improving the wetting modification and erosion resistance of the coal and rock surfaces. After modifying the coal seam interface, the wetting angle is 0°, and after 30 minutes of erosion, the wetting angle remains less than 30°, exhibiting excellent wetting modification and erosion resistance. This system, through the optimal selection of latently active cementing materials, suspension stabilizers, and fluid loss reducing agents, constructs a two-interface enhanced pre-flush fluid system to improve the bonding and sealing quality of coal seams. It exhibits good filtration and settling stability; however, the applicable temperature range of this retarder is relatively small and cannot fully meet the temperature requirements of deep coalbed methane horizontal reservoir sections.
[0005] Therefore, it is crucial to effectively improve the hydrophilicity of coal and rock surfaces, the interfacial bonding strength, the flushing efficiency of drilling fluid filter cake, and the displacement efficiency of drilling fluid in horizontal sections during cementing of deep coalbed methane wells, thereby enhancing the cementing quality of horizontal wells in deep coalbed methane. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a method for preparing and applying an enhancer for pre-cementing fluid in deep coalbed methane cementing. The prepared enhancer is an organic composite enhancer, which effectively solves the problem of low bonding strength at the interface between the two sides of coalbed methane cementing, significantly shortens the cementing time, reduces construction risks, and lowers construction costs.
[0007] A method for preparing an enhancer for cementing pre-fill fluid in deep coalbed methane includes the following steps:
[0008] Step 1: Mix epoxy resin, acetylacetone, triethylamine and deionized water, stir and react at 80-90℃ for 2-4 hours, then add adipic acid in portions, maintain the temperature and continue to react for 6-12 hours, remove acetylacetone by vacuum distillation to obtain intermediate product M1, which is hydrophilic epoxy resin.
[0009] Step 2: Weigh the intermediate product M1, add silane coupling agent, dispersant, sodium silicate, calcium salt and aluminate to it while stirring, stir for 5-10 minutes, then let it stand and react at 35-40℃ to obtain hydrated nanomaterial intermediate product M2.

[0014] Preferably, in step 3, the weight ratio of the intermediate product M2 to fibrous sepiolite is 100:(10-25).

[0020] Advantages of this invention:
[0021] (1) The reinforcing agent provided by the present invention adsorbs together with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of coal and rock through the lipophilic groups therein, wherein the ether group, which is the main hydrophilic group, forms a hydrophilic layer facing outward, thereby changing the surface of coal and rock from lipophilic to hydrophilic.
[0022] (2) When the intermediate product M1 hydrophilic epoxy resin and silane coupling agent in the reinforcing agent are used in combination, the silane coupling agent can protect some of the hydrophilic epoxy resin molecules around it from detaching from the coal and rock surface under the action of scouring shear force, thereby improving the long-term wetting modification effect of the coal and rock surface.
[0023] (3) When the enhancer is used in the pre-cementing fluid for deep coalbed methane cementing, it improves the interfacial bonding strength with the cement sheath by effectively improving the hydrophilicity of the coal and rock surface, thereby improving the performance of the pre-cementing fluid for deep coalbed methane cementing and thus improving the cementing quality of horizontal wells in deep coalbed methane.
[0024] (4) The raw materials for synthesizing this reinforcing agent are widely available and abundant, the cost is low, the preparation conditions are mature, it is easy to use, and the prospects for promotion and application are good. Detailed Implementation

[0070] Without adding any enhancer, the process is the same as in Example 6, and the resulting pretreatment solution is denoted as Sd4.
[0071] Performance testing
[0072] I. Particle Size Detection
[0073] The experiment was conducted at room temperature. The size and distribution of intermediate product M2 in the preparation of each reinforcing agent were determined using a Mastersizer 3000 laser particle size analyzer. Each group of experiments was tested 3 times, and the final result was the average value.
[0074] Table 1. Test results of particle size distribution of reinforcing agent
[0075]
[0076] As shown in Table 1, the main active components of the reinforcing agents prepared in each embodiment and comparative example are all nanoscale at room temperature, indicating that nano-hydration materials have been formed.
[0077] II. Hydrophilic Modification Ability
[0078] In order to improve the cementing quality during the on-site cementing process, the pre-flush fluid system is usually injected first according to the designed usage, and then the cement slurry is injected according to the designed usage. Therefore, the wetting modification of the coal and rock surface can be performed to improve the bonding quality between the cement sheath and the coal seam. Take experimental coal samples, smooth the upper and lower surfaces with sandpaper, and use an optical contact angle / interfacial tension meter to titrate with distilled water. The wetting angle of the experimental coal and rock surface was measured to be greater than 90°. Then, at different locations on the same coal sample, the titrant was changed from distilled water to a 25wt% enhancement agent, and the wetting angle was measured and compared with the measurement results of distilled water titration.
[0079] The testing process was as follows: the coal sample was fixed with clamps and placed in a sample solution of a certain concentration being stirred by a magnetic stirrer. The upper and lower surfaces of the coal block were parallel to the liquid surface to simulate the flushing process of the pre-fluid on the coal seam surface. After rinsing the surface for 10 minutes, the sample was removed and dried. The average value of three points was taken to measure the wetting angle of the reinforcing agent titration. Because, according to the cementing operation procedure, after the pre-fluid wets and modifies the coal seam surface, it will face the replacement of the cement slurry. It is necessary to determine whether the surfactant molecules attached to the coal seam surface will remain unchanged after being flushed by the cement slurry system, and whether the degree of modification will change. Therefore, after testing the wetting angle of the reinforcing agent titration, the above simulated flushing process was then carried out. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0080] Table 2 Results of hydrophilic modification ability test
[0081]
[0082] Table 2 shows that the lipophilic groups in the reinforcing agent combine with the organic matter on the coal surface, causing it to be uniformly adsorbed onto the coal surface, resulting in a change in the wettability of the coal surface from lipophilic to hydrophilic. The degree of modification of the coal surface by the reinforcing agent fluctuates with the content of hydrophilic epoxy resin in intermediate product M1. Comparative Example 1 shows that the silane coupling agent can effectively improve the hydrophilicity of the coal sample after rinsing. Without the addition of the silane coupling agent, the coal surface begins to return to an oily state after rinsing for 10 minutes, and the surface modification of the reinforcing agent fails. Comparative Example 2 shows that without intermediate product M1, its surface modification of the coal is also ineffective.
[0083] III. Compatibility and fluid loss test of pre-cementing fluid and cement slurry
[0084] A pre-cementing fluid and cement slurry were prepared for deep coalbed methane well cementing. The density of the cement slurry system was 1.67 g / cm³. -3It exhibits good rheological and filtration properties. The cement slurry formula (parts by weight) is: 100 parts Jiahua G-grade cement + 30 parts silica sand + 2.5 parts water loss reducer + 0.1 parts defoamer + 55 parts water (the water loss reducer is G310 multi-component copolymer from Weihui Chemical Co., Ltd., and the defoamer is DF-900). The two are mixed at different volume ratios, and after thorough stirring, the mixed slurry is poured into an atmospheric pressure thickener and cured at 90℃ for 30 min. After curing, its water loss performance at 60℃ and 6.9MPa is tested using a high-temperature and high-pressure water loss instrument. The experimental results are shown in Table 3.
[0085] Table 3. Results of Compatibility-Drainage Tests of Cement Pre-Cementing Fluid and Cement Slurry
[0086]
[0087] As shown in Table 3, the water loss of the mixed slurry within 30 minutes decreased slightly with the increase of the pre-ferment mixing volume ratio, indicating that the two have good compatibility in terms of filtration performance. The comparative example shows that the addition of hydrophilic resin intermediate M1 and fibrous sepiolite in the reinforcing agent has a certain impact on the water loss of the system. The addition of these two substances makes it easier to form a dense filter cake, thus improving the filtration performance of the system.
[0088] IV. Compatibility and Thickening Time Test of Cementing Pre-fill Fluid and Cement Slurry
[0089] As described above, for the compatibility-water loss test, pre-filled fluid and cement slurry for cementing deep coalbed methane were prepared. Cement slurry mixed with pre-filled fluid in different volume ratios was tested for thickening time according to the national standard "Oil Well Cement" (GB / T 10238-2015). The two were mixed in different volume ratios, stirred thoroughly, and the mixed slurry was poured into a high-temperature and high-pressure thickener. The test was conducted at 110℃ and 45MPa. The thickening time of cement slurry without pre-filled fluid was compared and analyzed. If the thickening time of the mixed slurry is not less than that of the cement slurry, it indicates that the two have good compatibility. The experimental results are shown in Table 4 below.
[0090] Table 4. Test results of compatibility and thickening time between cementing pre-fill fluid and cement slurry.
[0091]
[0092] Table 4 shows that after mixing the pre-filled liquid for deep coalbed methane cementing with the cement slurry, no shortening of the thickening time of the cement slurry was observed, indicating that the two have good compatibility. The experiment with a mixing volume ratio of 50:50 shows that the pre-filled liquid system without the reinforcing agent (Comparative Example 7) has little effect on the thickening time of the mixed system. Comparative Example 5 indicates that the addition of the intermediate product M1 hydrophilic resin in the reinforcing agent has a certain impact on the thickening performance of the system.
[0093] V. Compatibility and compressive strength test of pre-cementing fluid and cement slurry
[0094] As described above, compatibility-dehydration tests were conducted to prepare pre-filled cement fluid and cement slurry for deep coalbed methane cementing wells. Cement slurries mixed with different volume ratios of pre-filled cement fluid were prepared according to GB / T 19139-2012 "Test Methods for Oil Well Cement". These samples were cured in a 60℃ water bath for 24h, 48h, and 72h, and their compressive strength was measured using a compressive strength testing machine. The effect of different interface-reinforcing pre-filled cement fluid dosages on cement strength was compared and analyzed with the original cement slurry. The experimental results are shown in Table 5.
[0095] Table 5. Compatibility and compressive strength test results of pre-cementing fluid and cement slurry.
[0096]
[0097] As shown in Table 5, the compressive strength of the cement slurry system gradually decreases as the volume ratio of the pre-flush liquid in the mixed slurry increases. In wellbore with large boreholes, where the displacement efficiency cannot reach 100%, a 25:75 blend can ensure good strength within 2 days if the displacement efficiency is not lower than 75%. If the displacement efficiency is not lower than 50%, a 50:50 blend can ensure a strength of over 3 MPa within 72 hours, effectively meeting the performance requirements of coalbed methane cementing construction.
[0098] VI. Compatibility and interfacial bonding strength test of pre-cementing fluid and cement slurry
[0099] As described above, for the compatibility-water loss test, pre-filling fluid and cement slurry for cementing deep coalbed methane were prepared. Cement slurry mixed with pre-filling fluid in different volume ratios was poured into a cylindrical steel mold with a bottom diameter D=6cm and a height H=5cm. The whole mold was placed in a 60℃ water bath for 24h, 48h and 72h. The maximum shear force at the cement block-steel mold interface, i.e. the cement stone interface bonding strength, was measured.
[0100] Table 6. Test results of compatibility and interfacial bonding strength between cementing pre-fill fluid and cement slurry.
[0101]
[0102] As shown in Table 6, the interfacial bonding strength of the cement slurry system gradually decreases as the volume ratio of the pre-flush fluid in the mixed slurry increases. In wellbore sections with large boreholes, a 25:75 blend can guarantee a certain interfacial bonding strength within 2 days if the displacement efficiency is not less than 75%; a 50:50 blend can guarantee a certain interfacial bonding strength within 72 hours if the displacement efficiency is not less than 50%, effectively meeting the performance requirements of coalbed methane cementing construction and ensuring the safety of cementing operations.
