Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas extraction, and relates to a residue-free slickwater fracturing fluid and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] my country's oil and gas fields are rich in low-permeability strata, and fracturing technology is a key measure for increasing production in mid- and late-stage oilfield development. However, with the development of low- and ultra-low-permeability reservoirs, reservoir lithology has become more complex, physical properties have deteriorated, and reservoir types have become more diverse, making fracturing increasingly challenging. High-efficiency, factory-based fracturing for large-scale horizontal wells is becoming the mainstream technology for cost-effective development. However, fracturing fluid residue is often the main cause of post-fracturing pore blockage. Conventional guar gum fracturing fluids have high concentrations, high residue damage, and low drag reduction. These fracturing fluids require pre-mixing at the mixing station, making them incapable of the continuous mixing required for horizontal well fracturing. Conventional polypropylene fracturing fluids lack rapid viscosity development, have high residue levels, and can clog the formation, hindering the development of ultra-low-permeability reservoirs. Therefore, for horizontal well fracturing in ultra-low-permeability reservoirs, a fracturing fluid that can be continuously mixed, rapidly viscosifies, and is residue-free is required to improve the conductivity of low-permeability reservoirs.

[0003] Invention patent CN201510143592.7, "Drag reducer for slick water fracturing fluid system with high efficiency, fast dissolution and low friction resistance without oil solution," discloses a drag reducer for slick water fracturing fluid system with high efficiency, fast dissolution and low friction resistance without oil solution, belonging to the technical field of application of engineering chemical agents in oil and gas fields. The drag reducer is characterized in that the drag reducer is obtained by precipitation polymerization of a water-soluble monomer A, a hydrophobic monomer B, a mutual solvent C, and a free radical initiator E in an aqueous solution D containing a surfactant / dispersant and an inorganic salt; the weight percentages of the components are as follows: water-soluble monomer A: 5-40%; hydrophobic monomer B: 0.1-30%; mutual solvent C: 1-50%; surfactant / dispersant in the aqueous solution D: 0.1-10%; inorganic salt in the aqueous solution D: 10-50%; free radical initiator E: 0.000001-0.1%; and water: the balance. This invention, a high-efficiency, fast-dissolving, low-friction drag reducer for slickwater fracturing fluids, does not contain an oil solution. It retains the high-efficiency, fast-dissolving, and highly effective drag-reducing properties of existing drag reducers, achieving a drag-reduction efficiency of 70% during hydraulic fracturing. Furthermore, the introduction of hydrophobic groups reduces the affinity between the drag reducer molecules and with the reservoir rock, improving post-fracture drainage and reservoir protection. However, this slickwater fracturing fluid system suffers from a high residue content, limiting its application in volume fracturing of tight, low-permeability reservoirs. Summary of the Invention
