AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing Mannich base corrosion inhibitors are difficult to effectively inhibit the corrosion of completion fluids under high temperature conditions, especially in the completion operations of high-temperature deep wells and ultra-deep wells, where the temperature usually exceeds 160°C, thus limiting the applicability of existing corrosion inhibitors.

Method used

A new type of corrosion inhibitor based on purine Mannich bases was prepared by using aldehydes, ketones, and purines as raw materials through the Mannich reaction. The inhibitor was then used under high-temperature conditions. The specific method involved mixing aldehydes, ketones, and purines with methanol, adjusting the pH to 1-4, carrying out the Mannich reaction, cooling, recrystallizing, and filtering to obtain the purine Mannich base corrosion inhibitor.

Benefits of technology

Under high temperature conditions of 140–230℃, purine-based Mannich base corrosion inhibitors significantly reduce the corrosion rate of N80 and P110 carbon steel. When the addition amount is 5%, the corrosion rate can be reduced to below 5 g/m-2·h-1, and when the addition amount is 8%, the corrosion rate can be reduced to below 1 g/m-2·h-1, which is significantly better than commercially available corrosion inhibitors.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of oilfield development, specifically to a purine-based Mannich base corrosion inhibitor, a completion fluid, and its preparation and application. Background Technology

[0002] In oilfield well completion operations, high-density completion fluid systems are often required to balance formation pressure and maintain wellbore stability. Brine completion fluid is a system formulated using inorganic salts as the main compounds. Due to the micro-electrolysis of salt ions, brine completion fluid systems often exhibit high corrosiveness. Combined with the problem of corrosive gas channeling, this can cause corrosion of the casing and tubing. Excessive corrosion of the casing and tubing can severely damage oilfield production and cause significant economic losses.

[0003] To minimize losses caused by completion fluid corrosion, corrosion inhibitors need to be added to high-density brine completion fluid systems to reduce the corrosion of downhole metals. Mannich bases are β-amino (carbonyl) compounds, typically prepared via ketamine synthesis. Mannich bases exhibit excellent corrosion inhibition under acidic conditions and hold an important position in the research of corrosion inhibitors for acidic media, possessing significant development value and application prospects. However, currently available Mannich base corrosion inhibitors only meet the requirements for temperatures not exceeding 160℃; at higher temperatures, they are ineffective in inhibiting completion fluid corrosion.

[0022] In summary, the advantages of this application over the prior art include:

[0023] This application describes a purine-based Mannich base corrosion inhibitor prepared from aldehydes, ketones, and purines via the Mannich reaction. This inhibitor exhibits excellent corrosion inhibition under high temperature and strong acid conditions. Compared to traditional commercially available corrosion inhibitors, the purine-based Mannich base corrosion inhibitor in this application can reduce the corrosion efficiency of N80 carbon steel and P110 carbon steel to 1 g / m³ at temperatures ranging from 140 to 230°C. -2 ·h -1 The following is a summary of the findings. Furthermore, this corrosion inhibitor requires a small dosage and exhibits good corrosion inhibition during actual use. At a temperature of 230℃, when the addition amount of the purine-based Mannich base corrosion inhibitor is 5%, it can reduce the corrosion efficiency of N80 carbon steel and P110 carbon steel to 5 g / m³. -2 ·h -1The following applies: When the addition amount of purine-based Mannich base corrosion inhibitor is 8%, the corrosion efficiency of N80 carbon steel and P110 carbon steel can be reduced to 1 g / m. -2 ·h -1 Therefore, it is possible to further reduce usage costs. Detailed Implementation

[0024] Yang Xiaofu et al. synthesized the Mannich base reaction product of lauric acid imidazoline, trioxymethylene and acetophenone as reactants. Static weight loss analysis and electrochemical tests showed that the corrosion inhibitor achieved corrosion inhibition rates of 94.18%, 88.16% and 63.54% in 10% hydrochloric acid solution at a dosage of 1250 mg / L and corrosion temperatures of 40℃, 60℃ and 80℃, respectively.

[0025] Zhang Fenghua et al. obtained Mannich's base acidification corrosion inhibitor by using acetophenone, formaldehyde, and benzyltriethylammonium chloride as raw materials and condensing them into aldehydes, ketones, and amines. Laboratory static corrosion plates and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results showed that when the amount of corrosion inhibitor added was 0.7% and the temperature of the corrosive medium was 50℃, 60℃, 70℃, 80℃, and 90℃, the corrosion inhibition efficiency gradually decreased with increasing temperature, eventually dropping to 80%.

[0026] Chinese patent CN110982508A discloses a Mannich base acidification corrosion inhibitor and its preparation method. This Mannich base acidification corrosion inhibitor modifies the corrosion inhibition performance and applicable temperature by introducing benzene / naphthalene / anthracite rings with different adsorption capacities through changing the quaternizing reagent. However, this Mannich base acidification corrosion inhibitor can only maintain good slow-release properties and solubility / dispersion in environments below 140℃.

[0027] In summary, the inventors have discovered that the environmental temperature range for the corrosion inhibition effect of Mannich bases as described in existing technologies is generally quite limited. For well completion operations in high-temperature deep and ultra-deep wells, the temperature typically reaches above 200°C, while the applicable temperature range for current Mannich base corrosion inhibitors is generally below 160°C, making them unsuitable for well completion operations in high-temperature deep and ultra-deep wells.

[0028] Based on the above problems, the inventors conducted further research and development, resulting in this invention.

[0029] The present application will be described in detail below through specific embodiments and comparative examples:

[0030] Example 1

[0032] 1.2 mol of formaldehyde and 1.2 mol of acetophenone were added to 100 mL of methanol, followed by 1 mol of purine. After thorough shaking to dissolve, concentrated hydrochloric acid was added to adjust the pH of the reaction system to 3. The temperature of the reaction system was then raised to 90 °C and maintained at this temperature for 6 hours. After the reaction was completed, the reaction system was cooled to room temperature, and the solvent was removed by rotary evaporation. Recrystallization was then performed, followed by filtration, and the filter cake was vacuum dried to obtain the purine-based Mannich base corrosion inhibitor.

[0072] The difference between this embodiment and Example 1 is that, in (1), the preparation of the purine-based Mannich base corrosion inhibitor includes:

[0073] 1.5 mol of phenylacetaldehyde and 1.2 mol of acetophenone were added to 100 mL of methanol, followed by 1 mol of purine. After thorough shaking to dissolve, concentrated hydrochloric acid was added to adjust the pH of the reaction system to 3. The temperature of the reaction system was then raised to 95 °C and maintained at this temperature for 9 hours.
