Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of coiled tubing drilling and grinding fluid in oil and gas field development stimulation, in particular, relates to a deep shale gas coiled tubing drilling and grinding fluid and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Bridge plug staged fracturing process is often used in oil and gas well stimulation, and when the fracturing operation is completed, coiled tubing drilling is used to remove the bridge plug to quickly restore the production channel of the wellbore. The coiled tubing drilling and grinding fluid at home and abroad mainly uses slickwater system, which has certain viscosity, good drag reduction rate and other properties, and meets the requirements of reducing pump pressure and carrying drill cuttings. Restricted by production cost, the drilling and grinding fluid for Sichuan and Chongqing shale gas usually uses fracturing flowback fluid, which is prepared under the condition of long time and high temperature, and is repeatedly used in circulation. The performance of the drilling and grinding fluid is unstable, which greatly increases the operation risk. Especially in deep shale gas operation, the performance of the drilling and grinding fluid fails frequently, and the most direct performance is that the viscosity of the liquid is greatly reduced or even lost, and even if the drag reduction agent is added, the effect is not satisfactory, which affects the drilling and grinding operation efficiency.
[0003] In view of the problem of failure of deep shale gas drilling and grinding fluid, the project team carried out water sample detection on 18 water samples of 5 well times of failure, and the results showed that the mineralization of 70% of the water samples was more than 20 g / L, and the total iron content of 60% of the water samples was more than 10 mg / L (characteristics of failed drilling and grinding fluid). The reasons for the failure of the working fluid are as follows: the water quality of the drilling and grinding fluid preparation liquid is complex (mineralization > 20 g / L, total iron content > 10 mg / L), the drilling and grinding continuous operation time is long, the working fluid is repeatedly used in circulation, and is affected by the steel corrosion products of surface equipment, drilling tools and pipe column and reservoir minerals, which significantly increases the total mineralization, calcium and magnesium ion content and iron ion content of the working fluid; the temperature of deep shale gas operation is high (the reservoir temperature is as high as 150℃, and the continuous oil pipe drilling and grinding operation temperature is > 70℃), which accelerates the failure of the working fluid. After multiple cycles, the water quality of the drilling and grinding fluid may be worse than that of the fracturing flowback fluid. Therefore, it is of great significance to provide a deep shale gas coiled tubing drilling and grinding fluid and a preparation method thereof.
[0004] A drilling and grinding fluid tackifier and a preparation method thereof are disclosed in a Chinese patent with the application number "CN202111266996.7" and the title "Drilling and grinding fluid tackifier and preparation method thereof". The raw materials of the drilling and grinding fluid tackifier include alkenyl sulfonic acid, alkenyl alkyl ketone and alkenyl quaternary ammonium salt, which are obtained by the following method: stirring the required amount of alkenyl sulfonic acid, alkenyl alkyl ketone, alkenyl quaternary ammonium salt and solvent uniformly to obtain a mixture, adjusting the pH of the mixture, passing nitrogen gas to make the mixture in a nitrogen atmosphere, then adding an initiator to the mixture for polymerization reaction, removing the solvent, drying and crushing to obtain the product. The drilling and grinding fluid tackifier can be applied in a drilling and grinding fluid system without bentonite or with low bentonite, and has good compatibility with various treatment agents; it can significantly improve the temperature resistance and rock carrying performance of the drilling and grinding fluid system without bentonite or with low bentonite, and reduce the complex accident rate in drilling and grinding operations.
[0005] A drilling and grinding fluid for long horizontal section wells and its preparation and use method are disclosed in a Chinese patent with the application number "CN202111241700.6" and the title "Drilling and grinding fluid for long horizontal section wells and its preparation and use method". The drilling and grinding fluid for long horizontal section wells is prepared by mixing the following substances in percentage by weight: 50-60% base oil, 15-18% anionic surfactant, 15-20% non-ionic surfactant, 0.01-0.05% thickening agent, 3-5% corrosion inhibitor, 1-3% pH regulator and the balance water. The drilling and grinding fluid can significantly reduce the frictional resistance between the drilling and grinding string and the wellbore, and between the drill bit and the drilling and grinding object, and improve the running efficiency of the string in the horizontal section and the drilling and grinding success rate. During the construction process, the drilling and grinding fluid is diluted into a water solution with a mass concentration of 1-2% for use, the diluted liquid is pumped into the drilling and grinding string by a ground pump set, flows out through the drill bit water eye, carries the cuttings back from the annulus between the wellbore and the drill pipe after drilling and grinding, and is recycled after simple settling and filtration. The drilling and grinding fluid has low cost, wide application range, low corrosion and is convenient to prepare and use on site.
[0006] However, the above existing technologies do not address the complex water quality composition and high reservoir temperature problems of deep shale gas drilling and grinding fluid preparation, to solve the production problem of deep shale gas drilling and grinding fluid failure. SUMMARY

[0029] In the following, a deep shale gas coiled tubing drilling fluid and its preparation method according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and exemplary embodiments.
[0030] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "first" and the like are used merely for convenience of description and distinction, and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated.
[0031] Exemplary Example 1
[0032] This exemplary embodiment provides a method for preparing drilling fluid for deep shale gas coiled tubing.
[0033] Figure 1 A schematic flow chart illustrating a method for preparing drilling fluid for deep shale gas coiled tubing, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, is shown below. Figure 1 This describes a method for preparing drilling fluid for deep shale gas coiled tubing, as illustrated in this exemplary embodiment.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the preparation method of deep shale gas coiled tubing drilling fluid may include: adding an iron ion shielding agent to the solution preparation water to obtain a first solution; adding an anti-salt drag reducing agent to the first solution to obtain deep shale gas coiled tubing drilling fluid.
[0035] Specifically, the method for preparing the drilling fluid for deep shale gas coiled tubing in this exemplary embodiment may include:
[0036] S1. Add water for solution preparation to the solution preparation tank, turn on the stirrer, and add iron ion shielding agent to the water for solution preparation while stirring. Stir for 15-30 minutes.
[0037] S2. Add an anti-salt drag-reducing agent to the solution obtained in step S1 and stir for 20-40 minutes to prepare a deep shale gas coiled tubing drilling fluid.
[0038] In this exemplary embodiment, the adverse effects of iron ions on the performance of the drilling fluid include: the main drag-reducing agent used in the drilling fluid is a polymer, and the presence of iron ions, especially Fe, in the liquid... 3+It will enhance the intermolecular condensation and dehydration of polymer molecules, and trace amounts of Fe 3+ This can cause polymer molecules to flocculate, significantly reducing the viscosity of the drilling fluid, thereby decreasing its drag-reducing properties and its ability to carry drill cuttings. This invention first adds an iron ion shielding agent, allowing the shielding agent to undergo a complexation reaction with iron ions, encapsulating the iron ions within the shielding agent and transforming them into compounds with larger molecular weights. This prevents the iron ions from flocculating the drag-reducing agent added later. In other words, the iron ion shielding agent can chelate free iron ions in the solution-mixing water within the large molecules (shielding agent), achieving a shielding effect against iron ions and reducing their impact on the drilling fluid's performance.
[0039] In this exemplary embodiment, in step S1, the stirrer is turned on, and the rotation speed can be set to 1000-1500 r / min.
[0040] In this exemplary embodiment, in step S2, the anti-salt drag-reducing agent may be added by suction.
[0041] In this exemplary embodiment, the amount of each raw material used in the preparation method of the deep shale gas coiled tubing drilling fluid can be as follows: by mass percentage, 0.1-0.3% salt resistance agent, 1-5% iron ion shielding agent, and the balance being water for fluid preparation.
[0042] In this exemplary embodiment, in step S1, the formulation of the iron ion shielding agent may include, by mass percentage, 5-20% tetrasodium glutamate diacetate, 3-8% polyaspartic acid, 2-5% butane tricarboxylic acid phosphonate, 2-20% ammonium citrate, and the balance being water.
[0043] Furthermore, the preparation method of the iron ion shielding agent may include: adding water to a reaction vessel, heating to 30-50°C, turning on the stirrer, and while stirring, sequentially adding tetrasodium glutamate diacetate, polyaspartic acid, and phosphonate butane tricarboxylic acid to the water, stirring for 30-60 minutes; then adding ammonium citrate, stirring for 15-30 minutes; and cooling to room temperature to obtain the iron ion shielding agent. Here, the iron ion shielding agent can be a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid. Changing the order of addition does not alter the structure or effect of the final product. Because ammonium citrate has good solubility in water, adding it last facilitates uniform mixing during the preparation of the iron ion shielding agent, and makes it easier for the various substances to complex with iron ions, achieving synergistic effects and reaching the best results.
[0044] In this exemplary embodiment, in step S1, the water used for preparing the solution may include fracturing flowback fluid (high-mineralization flowback fluid).
[0045] In this exemplary embodiment, in step S1, the water used for preparing the solution may include brine with a mineralization degree > 20 g / L and a total iron content > 10 mg / L. For example, a brine with a mineralization degree of 30,000 ppm and a ferric ion content of 50 ppm. That is, a brine with a mineralization degree of 30 g / L and an iron content of 50 mg / L is used as the water for preparing the solution.
[0046] Furthermore, by adding only NaCl and FeCl3 to clean water, the mineralization and iron ion content of the water used for preparing drilling fluids can be simulated, or even higher, than those in the field. Specifically, the preparation method for the water used for preparing the fluid may include: adding NaCl and FeCl3 to clean water and stirring until completely dissolved. The water quality of this water used for preparing the fluid can be worse than that of the water used for preparing the fluid in the field. Here, there are no special instructions regarding the stirring conditions; stirring until uniform is sufficient. Most of the "water used for preparing the fluid in the field" is initially fracturing flowback fluid, but after repeated drilling operations, the water quality may be worse than that of fracturing flowback fluid; a small portion of the water used for preparing the fluid in the field is not simply fracturing flowback fluid, but may be a mixture of fracturing flowback fluid and drilling waste fluid.
[0047] In this exemplary embodiment, in step S2, the salt-resistant drag-reducing agent may include a polyacrylamide compound, and a polyacrylamide drag-reducing agent with excellent salt resistance may be used. The salt resistance of the salt-resistant drag-reducing agent may be greater than 30,000 salinity. That is, the salt-resistant drag-reducing agent may be a polyacrylamide drag-reducing agent with a salt resistance greater than 30 g / L salinity. Here, the salt-resistant drag-reducing agent may be an emulsion or a suspension emulsion. The salt-resistant drag-reducing agent may be, but is not limited to, purchased from Sichuan Chuanqing Well Technology Co., Ltd.

[0082] If the amounts of the formulation substances included in Examples 1 to 4 of this invention are expressed as mass percentages, then:
[0083] Example 1:
[0084] Iron ion shielding agent formula: 5% tetrasodium glutamate diacetate + 8% polyaspartic acid + 5% butane phosphonate tricarboxylic acid + 20% ammonium citrate + water.
[0085] Drilling fluid formulation: 5% iron ion shielding agent + 0.3% salt resistance reducing agent.
[0086] Example 2:
[0087] Iron ion shielding agent formula: 15% tetrasodium glutamate diacetate + 5% polyaspartic acid + 3% butane phosphonate tricarboxylic acid + 15% ammonium citrate + water.
[0088] Drilling fluid formulation: 3% iron ion shielding agent + 0.2% salt resistance reducing agent.
[0089] Example 3:

[0091] Drilling fluid formulation: 1% iron ion shielding agent + 0.1% salt resistance reducing agent.
[0092] Example 4:
[0093] Iron ion shielding agent formula: 20% tetrasodium glutamate diacetate + 8% polyaspartic acid + 2% butane phosphonate tricarboxylic acid + 10% ammonium citrate + water.
[0094] Drilling fluid formulation: 2% iron ion shielding agent + 0.2% salt resistance reducing agent.
[0095] The performance of the drilling fluids prepared in Examples 1 to 4 of this invention was evaluated, including temperature and shear resistance, and drag reduction performance.
[0096] Temperature and shear resistance tests: Rheometer tests were conducted at 90℃ for 100 seconds. -1 Under these conditions, continuous shearing was performed for 5 hours. Figure 2 It can be seen that the viscosity retention rate of the drilling fluid in Example 1 is 49.05%, and the viscosity retention rate of the drilling fluid in Example 4 is 51.59%. The temperature resistance and shear resistance of the drilling fluid in Example 1 were tested by changing the temperature conditions at 120℃ for 100 seconds. -1 Under these conditions, continuous shearing for 5 hours, from Figure 4 It can be seen that the viscosity retention rate of the drilling fluid in Example 1 is 43.5%. The temperature and shear resistance of the drilling fluid in Example 4 were tested by changing the time conditions at 90℃ for 100 seconds. -1 Under these conditions, continuous shearing for 10 hours, from Figure 5 It can be seen that the viscosity retention rate of the drilling fluid in Example 4 is about 48.9%.
[0097] Drag reduction performance test method: According to NB / T 14003.1—2015 "Shale Gas Fracturing Fluids Part 1: Slickwater Performance Indicators and Evaluation Methods". Figure 3 It can be seen that the drag reduction rate of the drilling fluid in Example 1 is 74.36%, the drag reduction rate of the drilling fluid in Example 2 is 70.21%, the drag reduction rate of the drilling fluid in Example 3 is 71.36%, and the drag reduction rate of the drilling fluid in Example 4 is 73.04%.
[0098] The performance of drilling fluids from five wells that failed in deep shale gas drilling was evaluated. A six-speed rotational viscometer was used to test the apparent viscosity of the fluids at room temperature, and the results are shown in Table 1. Table 1 shows that the apparent viscosity of the drilling fluids from these five wells decreased significantly, becoming comparable to that of water. Since the drag-reducing effect of drilling fluids is directly related to viscosity, a viscosity comparable to that of water indicates that the fluid has failed. Even after adding 0.2% drag-reducing agent to the drilling fluid, the viscosity remained low, indicating that the current drilling fluid is unsuitable for the needs of deep shale gas drilling.
[0099] Table 1 Apparent viscosity of drilling fluid in the field and apparent viscosity after replenishment
[0100]
[0101] The drilling fluids of Examples 1-4 were compared with existing drilling fluids. The results of the fluid performance evaluation (based on the above-mentioned temperature resistance and shear resistance test and drag reduction test methods) are shown in Table 2 below. Existing drilling fluid formulations can be water + drag reducer. The drag reducer has poor salt resistance, and its main component is polyacrylamide with a salt resistance of less than 10,000 salinity.
[0102] The water used for preparing conventional drilling fluid has the same properties as the water used for preparing fluid in Examples 1-4, and can be salt water: add 485g of water to a beaker, turn on the stirrer, add 15g of NaCl and 0.025g of FeCl3 at a time, stir for 15 minutes, and use it after the salt is completely dissolved.
