Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In the later stage of oil field development, water channeling problems often occur in oil wells, which seriously affect the oil recovery rate. Using water plugging materials to plug high permeability layers or cracks is a key means to solve this problem. The commonly used water plugging materials at present mainly include organic polymers and inorganic cements.

[0003] Although the organic polymer plugging agent (such as polyacrylamide) has low initial viscosity and is easy to pump, it is prone to degradation in high temperature (>120℃) and high salt reservoir environments, resulting in plugging failure, and the cost is relatively high, and some products may decompose and produce harmful substances at high temperatures. Although the inorganic plugging agent (such as cement slurry) has high strength and good temperature resistance, it generally has the problems of high brittleness, easy to produce shrinkage cracks, weak adhesion to the formation rock, poor stability of the slurry and easy to settle.

[0004] On the other hand, China's agricultural and forestry biomass resources (such as rice husk and straw) are extremely rich, with an annual output of about 700 million tons. At present, a large amount of agricultural and forestry waste is incinerated or landfilled, which not only wastes resources, but also causes serious environmental pollution. Although there are utilization methods such as anaerobic fermentation to produce biogas, there are problems such as low efficiency, insufficient utilization rate of cellulose, and difficulty in treating biogas slurry and residue. Therefore, it is crucial to develop high-value utilization methods for agricultural and forestry biomass.

[0037] In the existing technical system, the high-value utilization of agricultural and forestry biomass and the improvement of inorganic material performance have not yet achieved effective synergy. Specifically, the current application of organic water shutoff agent has several problems: first, its cost is relatively high; second, under high temperature and high salt environmental conditions, the water shutoff agent is prone to degradation; third, certain types of organic water shutoff agent may decompose and produce harmful substances under high temperature conditions.

[0049] As another embodiment of the present application, the agricultural and forestry biomass material is prepared by the following method:

[0050] The agricultural and forestry waste raw materials such as rice husk and straw are washed and dried, and then the biomass raw materials are crushed by a crusher, and then the uniform particles of 30 mesh are screened out by a vibrating screen, which is beneficial to control the discharge particle size during mechanical activation.

[0051] The uniformly screened biomass particles of 30 mesh are placed in a Raymond mill, the rotating speed is controlled, and repeated processing is carried out until the diameter of the raw materials reaches 1-10 μm.

[0052] Reference Figure 1As another embodiment of the present application, the present application further provides a preparation method of the water plugging material, comprising the following steps: S1, adding a pH regulator, a suspending agent, a retarding agent, a forest and agricultural biomass material and a itaconic acid modified acrylate into water, stirring at a speed of 500 r / min for 15 min to obtain a mixed solution a; S2, adding a dispersing agent and a high-performance silicate into the mixed solution a obtained in the step S1, stirring at a speed of 500 r / min for 15 min to obtain a mixture b; S3, uniformly mixing a high-activity mineral admixture and a reinforcing agent to obtain a mixture c; S4, adding the mixture c obtained in the step S3 into the mixture b obtained in the step S2, stirring at a speed of 600 r / min for 15 min, and the water plugging material is obtained, and the performance index is as follows: a density of 1.12-1.23 g / cm 3 , a viscosity , a curing time of 24-48 h, and a compressive strength of 1.7-2.1 MPa.

[0053] The mechanism of action is as follows: after the slurry is pumped into the formation fracture, the suspending agent and the dispersing agent in the slurry ensure that the particles are stably suspended and do not settle. The retarding agent controls the speed of the curing reaction, allowing the slurry to enter deeper formations. With the passage of time and the action of temperature, the high-performance silicate and the high-activity mineral admixture undergo hydration reactions to generate network-like gels and crystalline products with the calcium ions provided by the reinforcing agent. At the same time, the micron-sized forest and agricultural biomass particles not only bind to the inorganic network and the rock surface through hydroxyl groups and other groups, but also participate in the reaction through their high-temperature degradation products, further enhancing the structure. Finally, a dense, high-strength, and firmly bonded composite is formed, effectively sealing the water flow channels.

[0054] In a further aspect, the itaconic acid modified acrylate is prepared by the following method:

[0055] The itaconic acid is dissolved in deionized water, a reflux device is set up, and after stirring uniformly, it is added to a polymerization reactor, and nitrogen is introduced for 10 min to remove air in the reaction system, and nitrogen is continuously introduced during the whole polymerization process, so that the reaction is carried out under the protection of nitrogen all the time;

[0056] The temperature of the reaction liquid is heated to the reflux temperature under stirring;

[0057] The mixed solution of the acrylate monomer and the initiator is added dropwise, and the reaction is continued for 1 h to ensure that the reaction is fully carried out;

[0058] After the reaction is completed, the reaction liquid is cooled to room temperature, and after precipitation, filtration, washing and drying, the itaconic acid modified acrylate is obtained.

[0059] According to the water plugging material and the preparation method of the present application, the following comparative effects of the material are compared and explained by using 7 examples and 6 comparative examples, and the specific proportions (weight percentage) shown in Table 1 are strictly followed according to the preparation method shown in the above Figure 1 The 7 kinds of water plugging materials are prepared as follows:

[0079] Comparative Example 7: The oil-water well plugging material of the agricultural and forestry biomass-inorganic composite high strength was synthesized according to the preparation method provided in Example 1, except that itallic acid modified acrylate was not added.

[0080] The compressive strength and curing time of the composite profile control and plugging agents of Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-7 were determined according to the method for evaluating the performance of profile control agents in SY / T5590-2004.

[0081] The further curing time test method was as follows: the prepared composite oil-water well plugging material mixture was stirred uniformly and poured into a 2050 mm mold, and placed in a 140℃ environment for curing. Every 3 hours, the cured sample was taken out and tested with a test needle. The time when the test needle could not sink into the sample was the curing time.

[0082] The further compressive strength test method was as follows: a regularly calibrated pressure testing machine was used, and the center of the test piece was aligned with the pressure head during operation, and the loading rate was uniform. Too fast or too slow loading rate would cause deviation of the results. After a group of experiments, abnormal values were removed, and the average value was taken as the result.

[0083] Table 1: Compressive strength and curing time of the plugging material

[0084]

[0085] As can be seen from the property test results of the composite profile control and plugging agents in Table 1, with the increase of the amount of high-activity mineral admixture in the system, the compressive strength showed an increasing trend, and the highest compressive strength was 1.74 MPa. With the decrease of the content of calcium oxide in the high-activity mineral admixture, the compressive strength also decreased. The content of calcium carbonate in the reinforcing agent also affected the compressive strength of the composite plugging agent. When no calcium carbonate was added, the compressive strength of the composite plugging agent decreased significantly.

[0086] Taking the composite plugging agents prepared in Examples 2, 4 and Comparative Example 5, with the increase of the amount of high-performance silicate, the compressive strength of the composite plugging agent first increased and then decreased, and reached the maximum value at 2% addition amount. The curing time increased.

[0087] Taking the composite plugging agents prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Example 1, the compressive strength of the plugging material without the addition of agricultural and forestry biomass was 1.01 MPa. With the increase of the proportion of agricultural and forestry biomass, the compressive strength after curing also increased, and when the addition amount was 6%, the compressive strength could reach more than 1.79 MPa.

[0088] Taking the composite plugging agents prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Example 3, the curing time of the plugging material without the addition of a retarder was significantly reduced. The addition amount of the retarder had little effect on the compressive strength of the composite plugging agent system.

[0089] Take the composite plugging agent prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Example 4, the consolidation time of the water plugging material is increased without adding a pH adjuster, and the amount of the retarder has little effect on the compressive strength of the composite water plugging agent system.

[0090] Take the composite plugging agent prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Example 7, the compressive strength of the composite profile control agent is significantly reduced without adding itaconic acid-modified acrylate.

[0091] Figure 2 The results of the determination of the suspensibility of the water plugging materials prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 2 and 6 are as follows: the water separation rates of the water plugging materials prepared in Examples 1-7 within 12 h are 3.6%, 4.5%, 5.7%, 5.1%, and 2.7%, compared with Comparative Example 2, the present application enhances the crosslinking ability of the water plugging material in the oil displacement system and the stability of the inorganic water plugging material in the oil displacement system by adding a suspending agent and a dispersing agent.

[0092] The present application has the following advantages:

[0093] Resource utilization and environmental protection: the use of waste agricultural and forestry biomass as one of the key components realizes high-value utilization of waste, reduces costs, and is environmentally friendly.

[0094] High performance: through fine compounding and synergistic effect of agricultural and forestry biomass and various inorganic materials, the obtained material has high compressive strength (up to 1.7 MPa or more), controllable curing time (24-48 h), and is suitable for high-temperature reservoir environments above 140℃.

[0095] Good stability: through the joint action of suspending agents and dispersing agents, the system has high stability and low water separation rate, ensuring the uniformity and pumpability of the slurry during construction.

[0096] Clear synergistic mechanism:

[0097] High-activity mineral admixture: adsorbed on the formation rock through van der Waals force under high temperature and high pressure, forming a dense packing structure, which resists erosion and locks water due to its high hardness and porous structure.

[0098] Suspension agent: the layered silicate structure swells when water is added, forming a gel-like barrier.

[0099] Dispersing agent: generates a chain or ring polymer by reacting with metal ions through functional groups, increasing the system strength and preventing component aggregation.

[0100] High-performance silicate: after hydrolysis, it reacts with metal ions to form insoluble precipitates, forming a three-dimensional network structure.

[0101] Retarder: Delay the precipitation reaction by coordination with metal ions through phenolic hydroxyl and carboxyl, control the curing time.

[0102] Agricultural and forestry biomass: The large number of hydroxyl groups contained therein enhance adhesion to formation rocks through hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces; organic acids produced by degradation at high temperatures can react with calcium and magnesium ions to form precipitates, further enhancing strength.
