TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of reservoir reconstruction oil production, and particularly relates to a bio-based oil displacement gel fracturing fluid system and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a key component of global energy, oil production technology has been continuously developed with the increasing scarcity of resources. Traditional primary and secondary oil recovery technologies, such as relying on natural reservoir energy production, water or gas injection to supplement energy, etc., have played an important role in early production, but in the face of the growing demand for efficient oil production, they have gradually exposed technical bottlenecks. Although primary and secondary oil recovery technologies have made significant contributions in early production, in many reservoirs, the remaining oil saturation is still high, and a large amount of oil resources has not been effectively exploited. With the increasing difficulty of production, the cost also rises, making it difficult to maximize economic benefits.
[0003] Under this background, microbial oil production technology emerged as the times require. As one of the important methods of tertiary oil recovery, microbial oil production technology has received widespread attention due to its unique advantages. Microbial oil production mainly relies on the growth and metabolic activity of microorganisms to produce biological surfactants, biological polymers, gases, organic acids and other substances. These substances can change the wettability of rock surface, reduce oil-water interfacial tension, increase oil viscosity, change the percolation characteristics of oil layer, etc., so as to achieve the purpose of improving recovery efficiency.
[0004] However, the current research and development of microbial oil production technology is still in its infancy, and it faces many technical difficulties and limitations. On the one hand, the adaptability of microorganisms and related biological agents used in microbial oil production is narrow. Under different conditions of reservoir temperature, pressure, pH, etc., their activity and oil displacement effect are often difficult to guarantee, resulting in insufficient stability of the technology. For example, some microorganisms cannot grow and reproduce normally in high-temperature, high-salt or high-pressure reservoir environments, and cannot continuously produce effective oil displacement substances. On the other hand, the process flow of microbial oil production is relatively complex, and it is difficult to effectively compatible with traditional oil production processes, increasing the operation cost and difficulty. In addition, there are also problems such as control and optimization of microbial growth and metabolic products in the process of microbial oil production. How to precisely regulate the metabolic pathways of microorganisms to produce more beneficial substances for oil displacement while reducing the generation of harmful by-products is still a difficult problem to be solved.
[0005] Meanwhile, the fracturing fluid also plays a key role in oil exploitation, and its performance directly affects the fracturing effect and recovery rate. The traditional fracturing fluid has problems such as great damage to oil reservoir and poor environmental friendliness. In the fracturing process, the filtrate of the fracturing fluid is easy to invade the oil layer, change the physical and chemical properties of the oil layer, cause the oil layer to be blocked, and reduce the recovery rate. Moreover, part of the fracturing fluid contains toxic and harmful chemical substances, which are difficult to recover completely after use and pollute the environment. In view of this, in order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, it is urgent to develop a stable and efficient bio-based oil displacement gel fracturing fluid system to meet the development needs of modern oil exploitation technology and reduce the negative impact on the environment.

[0096] Performance detection
[0097] During the fracturing operation, the fracturing fluid needs to have excellent thermal stability and shear stability. Specifically, under given temperature and shear rate conditions, it must maintain a certain viscosity to ensure that the fracture can be successfully opened and extended, and the proppant can be efficiently carried. During the process of flowing through the pipeline, perforation hole and finally entering the formation, the fracturing fluid will face high mechanical shear, and at the same time, the temperature will also rise. The double factors superimpose each other, which aggravates the thermal degradation and chemical degradation possibility of the fracturing fluid, resulting in the decrease of the apparent viscosity of the fracturing fluid in the formation, thereby causing the poor sand carrying performance and the easy occurrence of filtration loss. Based on this, it is particularly crucial to evaluate the temperature resistance and shear resistance performance of the fracturing fluid.
[0098] In this experiment, first, the Hake RS6000 high temperature and high pressure rheometer was used to conduct temperature resistance and shear resistance experiments on the fracturing fluids in Example 6 and Comparative Example 1 at a temperature of 100°C and a shear rate of 170s -1 The experimental results are shown in Figure 2 , 3 From the rheological curves of the two gel fracturing fluids, it can be found that whether the bio-based oil displacement agent and the synergist are added or not, the temperature resistance and shear resistance performance of the gel does not change significantly. This experimental result further confirms that the addition of the bio-based oil displacement agent and the synergist does not have a negative impact on the performance of the gel fracturing fluid, indicating that the bio-based oil displacement agent has good compatibility with the gel fracturing fluid.
[0099] To further evaluate the performance of the bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid, static oil washing capacity tests of different concentrations of bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid (Examples 1-6, Comparative Examples 1-3) were subsequently carried out, and the experimental scheme was as follows: different concentrations of bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid were placed in a water bath, and after constant temperature at 90°C for 2 hours, the bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid was completely broken to form a bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid broken liquid. Take 100 mL beaker containing oil sand, accurately take 50 mL of different concentrations of bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid broken liquid, and place it in a 50°C environment for 24 hours, then shake to promote oil to escape from the oil sand, and accurately measure the amount of oil washed out by the bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid broken liquid. The oil washing rate is calculated according to the formula: oil washing rate = (V2 / V1) x 100%, wherein V1 is the original oil content of the oil sand (mL), and V2 is the amount of oil washed out (mL). The experimental results are shown in Table 1.
[0100] Table 1 Static oil washing rate of different concentrations of bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid broken liquid
[0101]
[0102] The results show that the oil washing rate of Comparative Example 1 (without bio-based oil displacement agent and synergist) is only 38.7%, which represents the benchmark performance of the base fracturing fluid system; the oil washing rate of Comparative Example 2 (containing only a synergist, without a bio-based oil displacement agent) is 40.2%, which is basically the same as Comparative Example 1, indicating that the use of a synergist (lipopeptide + rhamnolipid) alone does not significantly improve the oil washing efficiency; the oil washing rate of Comparative Example 3 (containing 0.5% bio-based oil displacement agent, without a synergist) is 75.8%, which is better than Comparative Examples 1 and 2, proving that the bio-based oil displacement agent itself has good oil displacement ability, but is still significantly lower than Example 1; the oil washing rate of Example 1 is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 3, indicating that there is a significant synergistic effect between the bio-based oil displacement agent and the synergist (lipopeptide, rhamnolipid). In this invention, the bio-based oil displacement agent provides the basic interfacial activity and oil displacement ability, the lipopeptide further enhances the interfacial activity and emulsification efficiency, and the rhamnolipid can significantly improve the wettability of the rock surface. The synergistic effect of the three reduces the oil-water interfacial tension, changes the wettability of the rock, and forms an efficient oil displacement network.
[0103] In addition, the concentration of the bio-based oil displacement agent is positively correlated with the oil washing rate, and as the concentration increases, the oil washing rate also increases. When the concentration increases to 2%, the oil washing rate tends to be stable, reaching a saturation state, so the optimal concentration range for use in the fracturing fluid system is 0.5-2%. In addition, the oil displacement efficiency of this oil displacement fracturing fluid is significantly high, and even under low concentration conditions, the oil washing rate can still be maintained at more than 80%, with excellent performance.
[0104] The application evaluates the temperature resistance and salt tolerance of the bio-based oil displacement gel fracturing fluid system. The specific test method for temperature resistance evaluation is as follows: prepare multiple samples of bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid (configured according to Example 4), and place them in a water bath, and after constant temperature at 90°C for 2 hours, completely gel breaking to form bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid gel breaking liquid. Select several 100mL beakers, and add the same amount of oil-containing sand to each beaker to ensure the same original oil content (V1) of the oil sand. Place the beakers in different temperature constant temperature water bath environments, and accurately measure 50mL of bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid gel breaking liquid into each beaker under the corresponding temperature condition, and place it in the corresponding temperature constant temperature water bath for 24 hours, then shake the beaker to promote the oil to escape from the oil sand, and accurately measure the amount of oil washed out (V2).
[0105] The specific test method for salt tolerance evaluation is as follows: prepare multiple samples of bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid (configured according to Example 5), and configure a series of salt solutions with different salinities to simulate the salinity environment of formation water. Mix the bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid (configured according to Example 5) with the salt solutions with different salinities at a ratio of 4:1 to prepare fracturing fluid systems with different salinities, and place them in a water bath at 90°C for 2 hours to completely gel break and form bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid gel breaking liquid. Select several 100mL beakers, and add the same amount of oil-containing sand to each beaker to ensure the same original oil content of the oil sand, and add 50mL of fracturing fluid gel breaking liquid to the beakers containing oil-containing sand, respectively. After standing at 50°C for 24 hours, shake the beaker to promote oil to escape, and accurately measure the amount of oil washed out. Calculate the oil washing rate of the fracturing fluid under different temperature and salinity conditions according to the oil washing rate formula (oil washing rate = (V2 / V1) x 100%), record the experimental data, and observe the influence of different temperatures and salinities on the oil washing rate, so as to determine the adaptability and stability of the bio-based oil displacement gel fracturing fluid system under different temperature and salinity environments, and verify whether the temperature resistance and salt tolerance meet the actual application requirements. The experimental results are shown in Tables 2 and 3.

[0108] Table 3 Static oil washing rate of bio-based oil displacement fracturing fluid gel breaking liquid under different salinities
[0109]
[0110] The experimental results show that the system can effectively reduce the oil-water interfacial tension and significantly improve the oil recovery rate even in an extreme temperature and high salinity environment. Therefore, the present application is particularly suitable for the development of high-temperature and high-salinity reservoirs, effectively solving the problem of performance degradation of traditional fracturing fluids under high-temperature and high-salinity conditions, and providing a new technical guarantee for efficient exploitation under complex reservoir conditions. At the same time, the addition of the bio-based oil displacement agent in the system further enhances the degradation and dispersion capacity of heavy oil components, enabling the system to exhibit excellent oil displacement effect under different reservoir conditions and significantly improving the economic benefits and environmental friendliness of oil production.
[0111] In the field test of the bio-based oil displacement gel fracturing fluid, the reservoir temperature of the test well was 101°C. In order to minimize the damage caused by reservoir reconstruction measures, a low-concentration guanidine gum fracturing fluid system was selected. According to the reservoir characteristics and formation temperature of the well, the corresponding system formula was determined through indoor evaluation and optimization, and 200m 3 The bio-based oil displacement gel fracturing fluid for field application was prepared according to the ratio of Example 4. The viscosity of the guanidine gum base fluid was 33mPa·s, and after adding 2% bio-based oil displacement agent, the viscosity of the base fluid remained 33mPa·s, the viscosity change rate was 0, the initial crosslinking time was 25 seconds, and the gel could be hung after 72 seconds. The liquid performance was stable as a whole. During the fracturing construction process of the test well, 100m 3 The bio-based oil displacement gel fracturing fluid was prepared. After the fracturing construction was completed, the well was treated for 15 days, and then the 2mm oil nozzle was installed the next day for flowback. After 1 day of flowback, the oil pressure stabilized at 16.5MPa, the casing pressure was 17MPa, the daily liquid production reached 45m³, the daily oil production was 1.64 tons / day, and the highest daily oil production could reach 1.81 tons / day. This is in sharp contrast to the maximum daily production of only 0.1 tons / day when the adjacent well was tested, and the oil production and production increase effect is remarkable (see Figure 4 、 5 ).
[0112] The above results show that the bio-based oil displacement gel fracturing fluid system of the present application can exhibit excellent oil displacement performance under reservoir conditions, effectively improve the recovery efficiency of remaining oil, and reduce the damage to the reservoir and environmental pollution, providing an innovative solution for the development of oil production technology and promoting the progress and practical application of bio-oil production technology.
