AI Technical Summary
Existing acid technology reacts too quickly in high-temperature deep wells, resulting in increased filtration loss and an inability to effectively transform low-permeability areas. Furthermore, the high temperature threatens the integrity of the wellbore. The temperature limitations of existing self-generated acid cannot meet the needs of ultra-deep and ultra-high-temperature wells.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield chemical technology, and in particular to a weighted autogenous acid, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Deep / ultra-deep oil and gas resources are mainly distributed in the Tarim, Sichuan, and Junggar Basins. The Tarim Basin has large resources (oil accounting for 56% and natural gas for 41%) and is a key area for deep-ultra-deep exploration and development. Exploration depths are increasing, mostly between 6,000 and 8,000 meters, and currently, efforts are being made to reach depths of 10,000 meters. The reservoir temperatures encountered are also increasing, mostly exceeding 160°C, and even reaching 230°C. Carbonate reservoirs are characterized by strong heterogeneity, low permeability and tightness, and high stress. Previous carbonate reservoir stimulation technologies were suitable for reservoirs with depths below 7,000 meters and temperatures below 160°C. Acid technology mainly includes ordinary hydrochloric acid, slow-release hydrochloric acid, emulsified acid, thickened acid, cross-linked gel acid, and surfactant-based self-directing acid, which have achieved good results. In practice, slow-release acid fracturing or polymer linear gel fracturing combined with these acid solutions are often used.
[0003] However, with increasing exploration depth and rising reservoir temperatures, existing acid technologies and processes are no longer suitable, posing greater challenges to both tools and fluids. In high-temperature deep wells, existing acid systems react too quickly, leading to increased filtration loss and preventing acid from reaching the fracture front. The rapid reaction rate causes acid to enter high-permeability zones, while low-permeability zones remain unstimulated. Simultaneously, the unevenness of reservoir stimulation intensifies, significantly increasing the difficulty of uniform acid distribution. Furthermore, ultra-deep reservoirs typically exhibit both ultra-high temperature and ultra-high pressure. Higher operating pressure is a significant factor restricting reservoir stimulation, and higher reservoir temperatures pose a greater threat to wellbore integrity from previously used slow-reacting acids. Existing corrosion inhibitors also struggle to effectively protect the tubing string.
[0004] Compared to other acids, autogenous acid has advantages such as being non-acidic or weakly acidic at room temperature, generating acid at certain temperatures, low corrosion rate, and low acid rock reaction rate, making it an important approach to solving the problem of slow acidizing in high-temperature deep wells. Types of autogenous acids include autogenous hydrofluoric acid, autogenous hydrochloric acid, autogenous organic acids, and composite autogenous acids. Currently reported acid-generating temperatures are typically below 150℃, which still has limitations for current ultra-deep and ultra-high-temperature wells. For example, CN113755149A discloses an autogenous acid crosslinking fracturing fluid and its application. This fluid comprises 0.6%–1% thickener, 0.6%–1% crosslinking agent, 40%–45% acid-generating agent, 8%–10% activator, and 40%–45% water. It can only be applied to high-temperature carbonate rocks at 130℃–150℃, which cannot meet current requirements for exploration depth and reservoir temperature. CN106833596A discloses a fracturing fluid capable of self-generating acid, its preparation method, and its application. This fracturing fluid consists of 10%–40% organic ester, 0.3%–1% thickener, 1%–4% biodegradable filtration reducer, and the balance being water. However, it is only suitable for reservoirs at 120℃–160℃, and the acid-generating concentration is only 2–2.4 mol / L, indicating significant room for improvement and insufficient for current exploration in ultra-deep and ultra-high temperature wells. CN111500276A discloses a thickened self-generating acid for high-viscosity, low-acid rock reaction rates, comprising thickener: 4–0.8%, acid-generating agent A: 10–30%, acid-generating agent B: 1–10%, clay stabilizer: 1–2%, corrosion inhibitor: 2–4%, and the balance being water. However, its applicable temperature and high-temperature corrosion inhibition effect remain limited.
[0005] Therefore, how to develop a weighted autogenous acid suitable for the stimulation of ultra-deep and ultra-high temperature carbonate reservoirs has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this invention combines liquid weighting and self-generating acid technology to effectively reduce wellhead construction pressure and construction friction. It can carry out acid etching reaction with the reservoir at different stages of construction, effectively increasing the acid etching distance and achieving the purpose of effectively modifying the reservoir.
[0007] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a weighted autogenous acid, the weighted autogenous acid comprising: an acid-generating component and a weighting component; the acid-generating component comprising an acid-generating agent, a product solubilizer, a catalyst, and a corrosion inhibitor; the acid-generating agent comprising an organic weak acid and a chlorine-containing acid-generating agent; the weighting component comprising a weighting salt, a drag-reducing agent, and water.
[0009] This invention utilizes a synergistic combination of specific weighting components and specific acid-generating components. The acid-generating agent is selected from organic weak acids and chlorine-containing acid-generating agents to obtain a weighted self-generating acid with high acid-generating efficiency, controllable acid-generating rate, and acid-generating concentration. The initial acid concentration is low, enabling it to continuously conduct acid etching reactions with the reservoir at different stages of construction, effectively increasing the acid etching distance and effectively transforming the reservoir. At the same time, the weighted self-generating acid can also effectively reduce wellhead construction pressure and construction friction, reduce construction difficulty, and achieve efficient transformation of high-temperature deep reservoirs.
[0010] It is worth noting that this invention selects a combination of organic weak acid and chlorinated acid-generating agent as the acid-generating agent. The organic weak acid plays a role in the acid-rock reaction at low temperatures, while the chlorinated acid-generating agent begins to generate acid and etch the reservoir when the reservoir temperature reaches 100–200°C. This allows for continuous acid-rock reaction with the reservoir at different stages of construction, effectively increasing the acid etching distance and achieving efficient stimulation of high-temperature deep reservoirs. If the acid-generating agent contains only organic weak acid, the acid-rock reaction occurs near the wellbore, resulting in low acid etching efficiency and failing to achieve the goal of deep acidification. If only a high-temperature acid-generating agent is used, the temperature near the wellbore is low, the acid-rock reaction is weak, and the conductivity near the wellbore is low, thus the reservoir cannot be effectively stimulated.

[0125] ① Acid-generating ability test
[0126] The weighted autogenous acid obtained in the above examples and comparative examples was added to a reaction vessel. After placing marble blocks in the vessel, the reaction vessel was sealed and heated at 160°C for 6 hours. The hydrogen ion concentration was calculated by the change in the mass of the marble blocks, and the state of the reaction solution was observed.
[0127] ② Corrosion rate test
[0128] The corrosion rate of the weighted autogenous acid obtained in the above examples and comparative examples was tested using the plate corrosion method. Specifically, the method included: adding the prepared weighted autogenous acid to the reactor, placing N80 metal plates in the weighted autogenous acid, ensuring that the metal plates did not contact the inner wall of the reactor, maintaining a constant temperature of 180°C, and statically corroding for 4 hours. The corrosion rate was calculated by the change in the mass of the metal plates before and after corrosion.

[0132] As can be seen from Table 1:
[0133] (1) As can be seen from Examples 1 to 4, the present invention, by combining the weighted component and the acid-generating component, obtains a weighted autogenous acid with high acid-generating efficiency and controllable acid-generating concentration. The weighted autogenous acid reacts with calcium carbonate at 160°C for 6 hours to generate H. + The concentration can reach up to 4.95 mol / L, which translates to an HCl concentration of over 16%, and the reaction solution is clear. When reacted on an N80 metal sheet at 180℃ for 4 hours, the corrosion rate is as low as 25.69 g / (m³). 2 The following values (·h) indicate that the weighted autogenous acid has good corrosion inhibition properties, which is beneficial for acid fracturing.
[0134] (2) A comparison between Example 1 and Example 5 shows that, compared to Example 1, Example 5 uses potassium acetate as a catalyst, which generates H... + The concentration decreased to 3.17 mol / L. Therefore, it can be seen that the catalyst of the present invention is further preferably bromide and / or iodide, which further improves the acid-generating ability of the obtained weighted authigenic acid, thereby improving the acid rock modification effect.
[0135] (3) As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3, compared with Example 1, the absence of gluconic acid in the weighted authigenic acid of Comparative Example 1 resulted in a large amount of precipitation in the reaction solution, causing well pipe blockage; the absence of corrosion inhibitor components in the weighted authigenic acid of Comparative Example 2 led to a significant increase in the corrosion rate to 303.26 g / (m³). 2 In Comparative Example 3, since the acid-generating agent only contains 2-chloropropionic acid, there is no acid at low temperatures, and the acid-rock reaction occurs at the far end of the reservoir, resulting in ineffective acid etching near the wellbore and ineffective reservoir stimulation. Therefore, this invention, by combining heavy components with specific acid-generating components and selecting acid-generating agents that include both organic weak acids and chlorinated acid-generating agents, achieves synergistic effects among the components, improving the acid-generating efficiency of weighted self-generating acid, reducing reservoir damage, and ensuring that acid-rock reactions occur wherever the acid reaches.

Those skilled in the art should understand that any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention fall within the protection and disclosure scope of the present invention.
