Description

[0002] Most of the unconventional horizontal wells need to be fractured and completed in stages in the later stage, which requires not only good cementing quality but also good mechanical properties of the cement stone, such as low enough elastic modulus. The materials commonly used to improve the elastic properties of the cement stone mainly include: butadiene-styrene latex, styrene-acrylic latex, rubber particles and organic resin, etc. Among them, the latex and organic resin are limited in their wide use due to their high price, and the rubber particles and resin materials affect their application in oil and gas well cementing due to their poor temperature resistance and their own defects.

[0003] The rubber particles have become the first choice of many elastic cement slurry systems due to their wide sources and low price. Through surface modification treatment of the rubber material and matching with other cementing additives, an elastic cement slurry system is formed, which has an elastic modulus in the range of 7GPa-9GPa and a compressive strength >8MPa, basically meeting the needs of shale gas well cementing at present. However, various well testing, testing and production operations will inevitably affect the casing and cement sheath due to the large changes in temperature and pressure, which will inevitably cause micro gaps and micro cracks at the cementing interface, thereby forming a channel for the channeling of downhole formation fluid (especially natural gas), and further channeling to the wellhead, forming casing annulus pressure, and causing interlayer isolation failure.

[0019] The endpoints of the ranges and any values disclosed herein are not limited to the precise values recited as the exact dimensions are not critical to the invention. Any numerical range recited herein is intended to include all sub-ranges of the same numbers (i.e., every subset of numbers within the indicated range). For ranges containing one or more endpoints, the endpoints are included in the range. For ranges excluding any endpoints, the range is intended to exclude the excluded endpoint(s).
