TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of oilfield chemistry, in particular, relates to a kind of drilling fluid reutilization gel breaker and method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Drilling fluid is usually composed of fluid and various treating agents, including various polymer treating agents, salts and bentonite, etc., according to the different continuous phase, drilling fluid is divided into water-based drilling fluid, oil-based drilling fluid and gas-based drilling fluid, among which water-based drilling fluid is the most widely used, and is usually used for land and offshore drilling operations, while when drilling fluid enters the wellbore, rocks, sand and other pollutants in the formation will be suspended and mixed into the drilling fluid, and when the drilling fluid is discharged back to the ground, the solid part will become part of the fluid. In traditional drilling operations, drilling fluid is usually recycled after removing the useless solid pollutants in the fluid, therefore, it is crucial to effectively remove the solid pollutants in the drilling fluid.
[0003] For large-diameter particles (usually greater than 74 μm), a vibrating screen can be used to effectively remove them, while smaller solids (usually greater than 2 μm) can be removed by a hydrocyclone, a mud washer and a centrifuge, but it is difficult to remove colloidal particles smaller than 1 μm by physical methods, not only that, the contamination degree of small colloidal particles is much higher than that of other large-diameter solid particles. The stability of small colloidal particles mainly depends on the kinetic stability and the aggregation stability, the kinetic stability is reflected in the ability of Brownian motion of colloidal particles to resist gravity, when the colloidal particles are very small, the effect of gravity is small, the Brownian motion is violent, and the colloidal particles cannot be settled, so methods such as sedimentation cannot be used for removal; the aggregation stability is specifically manifested in that the colloidal particles cannot be aggregated due to the repulsive force of like charges, and when the surface charge disappears, the aggregation stability is destroyed, and sedimentation occurs. The method to achieve sedimentation is to add a gel breaker to change the physicochemical properties of the drilling fluid, destroy its stable system, and achieve mud gel breaking.
[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to provide a reusable gel breaker for drilling fluid to reduce the time cost of drilling operations. SUMMARY

[0010] The third aspect of the present application provides a breaking effect of the breaker of the second aspect on a drilling filtrate.

[0016] The specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0017] The first aspect of the present application provides a preparation method of a breaker, which comprises:

[0025] According to the present application, in step (1), the operation of the modification process includes: adding chitosan, sodium hydroxide and deionized water into a flask according to the corresponding weight ratio, swelling and alkalizing at 50℃ in a water bath for 1h. After mixing monochloroacetic acid and isopropyl alcohol according to the corresponding weight ratio, adding them into the flask, and adding an ethanol solution according to the corresponding weight ratio after reacting at 50℃ for 3.5h, the reaction is completed.
[0026] According to the present application, after the chemical modification process in step (1) is completed, O-carboxymethyl chitosan is obtained, and the obtained solid is filtered and washed with ethanol. Specifically, the O-carboxymethyl chitosan is filtered and washed with a 90% ethanol solution to remove salt and water, and is vacuum dried at 25℃ to obtain O-carboxymethyl chitosan.
[0027] According to the present application, in step (2), the O-carboxymethyl chitosan is subjected to radical polymerization with a quaternary ammonium salt monomer in an acidic environment under the action of an initiator to obtain a breaker.

[0036] According to the present application, the breaker has good breaking property, and the chroma and viscosity of the water-based drilling filter are reduced after the breaker is added. This is because chitosan has adsorption property, and the surface of chitosan contains hydroxyl and amino groups, which can combine with metal ions. The quaternary ammonium group has polarity, which can attract anionic substances and adsorb clay particles. Secondly, the quaternary ammonium group has charge neutralization effect, which can destroy the suspension stability of the water-based drilling filter, so that the solid particles in the filter are flocculated.

[0072] The components and contents of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 are shown in Table 1.
[0073] Table 1
[0074]
[0075]
[0076] Test Case
[0077] The breakers prepared in Preparation Examples S1-S3 were tested for their breaking effects on water-based drilling filtrate. Specifically, the breaking performance of the breakers was determined by studying the changes in viscosity, color, and average particle size of the water-based drilling filtrate. In the following test examples,
[0078] The viscosity of the water-based drilling pressure filter liquid is measured by a rotary viscometer according to the method in GB / T 16783.1-2014;
[0079] The colority of the water-based drilling pressure filter liquid is measured by a colority tester according to the method in GB / T 605-2006;
[0080] The average particle size of the water-based drilling pressure filter liquid is measured by a laser particle size analyzer according to the method in GB / T 19077-2016.
[0081] The manufacturer of the rotary viscometer is Shanghai Pingxuan Scientific Instrument Co., Ltd., and the model is SNB-1 rotary viscometer;
[0082] The manufacturer of the colority tester is Bell Analytical Instrument (Dalian) Co., Ltd., and the model is BSC5300.
[0083] The manufacturer of the laser particle size analyzer is Malvern Panalytical, and the model is MASTERSIZER 3000+ laser particle size analyzer.
[0084] 1. Viscosity test
[0085] 1g of S1-S3 obtained in the preparation example was accurately weighed and placed in the water-based drilling pressure fracturing fluid, and the viscosity of the water-based drilling pressure fracturing fluid was measured after standing for 4h. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0086] Table 2 Viscosity test results
[0087] F1 F2 F3 DF1 DF2 DF3 Viscosity (mPa-s) 5.3 6.2 5.8 18 12 7.3
[0088] As can be seen from Table 2, with the increase of the amount of the gel breaker, the viscosity of the water-based drilling pressure fracturing fluid decreases rapidly, showing excellent gel breaking performance. This is because after adding the gel breaker, the gel breaker contains chitosan and quaternary ammonium salt polymer. The adsorption performance of chitosan enables it to adsorb solid particles in the water-based drilling pressure fracturing fluid. The quaternary ammonium salt polymer adsorbs anions due to the presence of quaternary ammonium groups, causing the solid particles to flocculate and settle, reducing the viscosity of the water-based drilling pressure filter liquid and greatly improving the reusability of the pressure filter liquid.
[0089] 2. Colority determination
[0090] After adding the gel breaker to the water-based drilling pressure filter liquid, stirring at a stirring rate of 200r / min for 5min, 80mL was taken into a centrifuge tube for centrifugation, the centrifugal speed was 2000r / min, the centrifugation time was 5min, and the colority of the supernatant was detected. The results are shown in Table 3.
[0091] Table 3 Colority test results
[0092] F1 F2 F3 DF1 DF2 DF3 Color (multiple) 4.2 6 5.9 14 11 8
[0093] From the colorimetric test results, it can be seen that with the increase of the amount of the breaker, the colorimetry of the supernatant in the centrifuge tube decreases. In addition, it can be observed during the experiment that with the increase of the amount of the breaker, the supernatant of the water-based drilling fracturing fluid after gel breaking gradually becomes transparent, indicating that the breaker has good gel breaking effect. Moreover, it can be seen that when the amount of the breaker is too much, the colorimetry increases instead. This is because when the amount of the breaker is too much, the breaker and the solid particles in the water-based drilling fracturing fluid produce stronger repulsive force, resulting in that they cannot flocculate and settle but are more dispersed, and the gel breaking effect becomes poor.
[0094] 3. Average particle size test
[0095] After the breaker is added into the water-based drilling fracturing fluid according to the corresponding weight ratio, it is stirred at a stirring rate of 200 r / min for 5 min, at which time the average particle size is determined. Subsequently, it is allowed to settle for 1 h, and the average particle size is determined again. The test results are shown in Table 4.
[0096] Table 4 Average particle size test results
[0097]
[0098]
[0099] From the average particle size test results, it can be seen that the average particle size of the water-based drilling fracturing fluid after the addition of the breaker increases, indicating that the breaker generates precipitation after being added, and small particles aggregate to become large particles, resulting in an increase in the average particle size. The proportion of the gel particles smaller than 2 μm decreases after the addition of the breaker, indicating that the breaker effectively adsorbs the sub-micron particles after being added, so that they realize flocculation, and the breaker can also achieve good gel breaking effect on the micron-level particles which are difficult to remove.
