Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil extraction technology, specifically to compositions for high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network-type reinforced plugging agents, plugging agents, their preparation methods, and applications. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of water injection and gas displacement in fractured-vuggy carbonate reservoirs, the reservoirs have entered a high water-cut stage. Fractured-vuggy carbonate reservoirs, influenced by karst processes, form karst-characteristic reservoir environments. The reservoirs exhibit strong heterogeneity and diverse reservoir space types. The reservoir structure is mainly based on the complex and disordered interweaving of dissolution pores, large caverns, and fractures. Caverns are the primary oil and gas storage spaces, while fractures and pores are the main channels. Furthermore, the reservoirs are buried at depths exceeding 6000m, with formation temperatures ranging from 130-150℃ and formation water salinity around 200,000-220,000. Therefore, the harsh reservoir environment places higher demands on the strength and temperature resistance of water shut-off and profile control agents.

[0003] Inorganic plugging agents lack water-stopping selectivity and tend to block both oil and water channels, thus blocking oil as well as water. Therefore, in recent years, colloidal plugging agents have been the primary type used for water shut-off and profile modification in fractured-vuggy reservoirs. However, the strength of colloidal plugging agents is only suitable for small fractures of millimeters or 1-3 cm in size. For large-scale fractures and water-channeling fractures, the strength of colloidal plugging agents is insufficient, and their temperature resistance is limited, resulting in an overall water shut-off effectiveness of approximately 90 days. Improving the strength and effectiveness of colloidal plugging agents is currently key to improving the water shut-off effect in fractured-vuggy reservoirs. Summary of the Invention

[0108] With all other conditions remaining the same, a high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network type reinforced plugging agent was obtained.

[0109] Comparative Example 2

[0110] This comparative example was conducted using a method similar to that of Example 1, except that the composite material was adjusted to 0.6g (acrylamide-2-acrylamide-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid copolymer I was 0.4g, NVP was 0.2g), and the crosslinking agent was adjusted to 0.6g (urotropine was 0.3g, hydroquinone was 0.3g).

[0124] Test Example 1

[0125] This test example was used to determine the properties of the modified nano-silica prepared in Preparation Example 1. The specific results are shown below:

[0126] The average particle diameter was measured using a laser particle size analyzer.

[0127] The modified nano-silica prepared in Example 1 was measured by infrared spectroscopy, and the results are as follows: Figure 1 As shown, from Figure 1 It can be seen from the image that the silica grafted and modified with silane coupling agent KH560 has a thickness of 3421.15 cm⁻¹. -1 The absorption peak is due to the symmetric stretching vibration of the silanol group (-Si-OH), at 2875.64 cm⁻¹. -1 and 2942.4cm -1 A new organic absorption peak appeared at 1630.50 cm⁻¹, which are the characteristic absorption peaks of the methylene (-CH₂-) and methyl (-CH₃-) vibrations on KH560, respectively. -1 The absorption peak of the bending vibration of free water decreased to 1462.72 cm⁻¹. -1 The position represents the bending vibration and planar shear vibration of the methyl (-CH3-) and methylene (-CH2-) groups, at 1077.7 cm⁻¹. -1 The characteristic peak of the transverse and longitudinal symmetric stretching vibration of the siloxy group (-Si-O-Si) is 909.56 cm⁻¹. -1 A stretching vibration peak of epoxy groups appears nearby, at 799.25 cm⁻¹. -1 and 470.74cm -1 The peaks at these locations represent the symmetric contraction and bending vibrations of the silane oxygen group (-Si-O-Si), respectively. This indicates that the silane coupling agent KH560 was successfully grafted onto the silica surface.

[0128] Test Example 2

[0129] The following describes the performance of the high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network type reinforced plugging agents prepared in the above examples and comparative examples.

[0130] Dehydration rate test: The blocking agents (colloidal solution samples) prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were placed in a constant temperature chamber at 150°C until they were completely gelled. They were then kept in a closed environment at 150°C, and the dehydration of different samples was recorded for a certain period of time.

[0131] The calculation formula is S represents the dehydration rate (%), Vt represents the volume of the solution after dehydration (mL), and V represents the initial volume after gelation (mL). The dehydration rate test results are shown in Table 2.

[0132] Observation of the microstructure of the high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network reinforced plugging agent: Before testing, the high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network reinforced plugging agents prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were rapidly frozen in liquid nitrogen, transferred to a freeze dryer and freeze-dried in vacuum at -30°C for 24 hours. Then, the freeze-dried and dehydrated high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network reinforced plugging agent was surface-sputtered with gold to prepare the test sample, which was observed using a Quanta 450 scanning electron microscope.

[0133] Strength testing: Strain and frequency scans were performed at preset temperatures using the cone-plate system of the HAAKE RS600 rheometer. The shear stress ranged from 0.1 Pa to 100 Pa, and the frequency was maintained at 0.5 Hz (3.142 rad / s). The strength test results are shown in Table 3.

[0134] Table 2: Dehydration rate of high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network reinforced plugging agent

[0135]

[0136] As can be seen from Table 2, the temperature resistance of Comparative Example 1 decreased after nanofibers were used instead of modified nano-silica. Compared with the plugging agent prepared in Example 1, the high-temperature stability of the plugging agents prepared in Comparative Examples 2-4 all deteriorated. In Comparative Example 5, the high-temperature stability weakened after adjusting the ratio of modified nano-silica to modified mineral powder. In conjunction with the viscoelastic modulus in Table 3, although the storage modulus of the plugging agent prepared in Comparative Example 5 was significantly enhanced, the loss modulus decreased, and the colloidal surface exhibited brittleness.

[0137] Table 3

[0138]

[0139] As can be seen from Table 3, the strength of the plugging agent prepared in Comparative Example 2 decreased to the F level overall, with both the storage modulus and loss modulus being <1 Pa. The strength of the plugging agents prepared in Comparative Examples 3-4 was higher than that of the plugging agent prepared in Comparative Example 6, but both were lower than those prepared in Examples 1-4.

[0140] Figure 2 The image shows a scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of a high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network (IPN) reinforced plugging agent; among which, Figure 2 In the image, 'a' is a scanning electron microscope image of the high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network type reinforced plugging agent prepared in Example 1; Figure 2 In the image, b is a scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the high-temperature resistant interpenetrating network (IPN) reinforced plugging agent prepared in Comparative Example 6; (The image is derived from...) Figure 2 a and Figure 2 As can be seen from the comparison in section b, both the gel without modified nano-SiO2 and modified mineral powder (Comparative Example 6) and the gel containing nano-SiO2 and mineral powder (Example 1) exhibit obvious three-dimensional network structures. The three-dimensional network structure of the gel system without modified nano-SiO2 and modified mineral powder is mostly a relatively loose network structure with no joints between the networks, while the network structure of the gel with modified nano-SiO2 and modified mineral powder is more compact, with obvious joints and granular spheres between the networks, which can improve the spatial stability of the network.

[0141] Figure 3The viscoelastic modulus test diagram is shown for the high-temperature interpenetrating network reinforced plugging agent prepared in Example 1. Figure 3 As can be seen, the storage modulus remains almost constant at low frequencies, but increases with frequency at medium to high frequencies, from 4.0 Pa to 332.2 Pa. This increase in storage modulus indicates that the high-temperature interpenetrating network (IPN) reinforced plugging agent possesses good elastic properties, exhibiting resistance to deformation or strong recovery ability after deformation at medium to high frequencies. Therefore, the higher the frequency, the better the elasticity of the high-temperature IPN reinforced plugging agent. From low to high frequencies, the loss modulus continuously increases, from 0.3 Pa to 49.7 Pa, and the rate of increase also increases with frequency. However, the value of the loss modulus remains lower than that of the storage modulus, indicating that the high-temperature IPN reinforced plugging agent primarily exhibits elastic properties. The viscoelastic ratio tanδ (the ratio of G” to G’) of the high-temperature interpenetrating network reinforced plugging agent was calculated at shear frequencies of 0.01Hz, 0.1Hz, 1Hz, and 10Hz. When δ = 0-10º, it is a strong elastic body; when δ = 10º-20º, it is an elastic body; when δ = 20º-40º, it is a viscoelastic body; and when δ > 40º, it is a viscous body. The high-temperature interpenetrating network reinforced plugging agent prepared in Example 1 has a phase angle δ of less than 10° at all four frequencies, indicating it is a strong elastic body with strong impact resistance, local damage resistance, and good erosion resistance after deformation.
