The drag reduction rate and plugging effect of the composite bridging agent in Examples 1-4 of the present application The research test method is that the composite temporary plugging agent prepared by using different component weight proportions in examples 1-4 is respectively tested in terms of the resistance reduction rate and the plugging performance, the test method is based on NB / T14003.1-2015 "Shale gas fracturing fluid slick water performance index and test method", the slick water is used as a base fluid, the pipe friction instrument is used, the base fluid friction ΔP0 when the composite temporary plugging agent is not added is recorded, and the friction ΔP1 after the composite temporary plugging agent with different gradations is added. The resistance reduction rate calculation formula is as follows:

[0079] The plugging effect test adopts the static filtration test, the filtration loss is tested according to GB / T19139-2012 "Oil well cement test method", and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0080] Table 2

[0081] It can be seen from Table 2 that the composite temporary plugging agent described in the examples produces a high resistance reduction rate and a low filtration loss effect.

[0082] 3. The influence of the particle size and mesh ratio of the composite temporary plugging agent on the plugging performance.

[0083] The test method is that the composite temporary plugging agent with different mesh ratios in the particle size range in examples 5-10 is respectively tested in terms of the resistance reduction rate and the plugging performance, the test method is based on NB / T14003.1-2015 "Shale gas fracturing fluid slick water performance index and test method", the slick water is used as a base fluid, the pipe friction instrument is used, the base fluid friction ΔP0 when the composite temporary plugging agent is not added is recorded, and the friction ΔP1 after the composite temporary plugging agent with different mesh ratios is added. The resistance reduction rate calculation formula is as follows:

[0084] The plugging effect test adopts the static filtration test, the filtration loss is tested according to GB / T19139-2012 "Oil well cement test method", and the results are shown in Table 3.

[0085] Table 3

[0086] It can be seen from Table 3 that when the composite temporary plugging agent with a particle size of 10-100 meshes is mixed, the resistance reduction rate reaches 80% or above when the mesh ratio is different, and the filtration loss shows a good plugging effect.

[0087] Although the above examples have been shown and described, it can be understood that the above examples are exemplary and cannot be understood as limiting the application, and the changes, modifications, replacements and variations of the above examples made by those skilled in the art are within the protection scope of the application.
