Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of oil and gas extraction, and specifically relates to an organic diversion acid unblocking fluid system. Background Technology

[0002] Acidizing is a fundamental production enhancement measure in oil and gas reservoir development. It involves using acid to dissolve acid-soluble minerals or blockages in the reservoir, thereby increasing the reservoir's permeability and ultimately boosting well productivity. However, two typical engineering problems exist during acidizing: first, the effective acidizing distance is relatively short; conventional hydrochloric acid has an acidizing radius of only about half a meter, making it difficult to penetrate contaminated formations and even more difficult to connect to distant low-permeability oil and gas areas; second, following the principle of least resistance, the acid often flows towards high-permeability areas that we don't want to acidize, leaving low-permeability areas untreated, leading to acidizing failure or minimal effectiveness.

[0003] Currently, the most common method for directing acid flow to low-permeability areas is through diversion acid systems that rely on viscosity changes. These systems increase viscosity through upstream acid-rock reactions, preventing unreacted, low-viscosity acid from seeping into lower-permeability areas and thus improving permeability. However, extending the effective range of the acid flow is primarily achieved through the slowing properties of diverting agents, which have very limited acidification distance. Therefore, achieving both diversion and deep acidification is a crucial engineering problem that needs to be solved. This invention proposes a diversion acid system based on solid organic acids. This system possesses extremely long slowing capabilities and excellent diversion effects, effectively addressing the goal of deep diversion acidification. Summary of the Invention
