Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of petroleum extraction technology, specifically relating to a cementing and flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluid, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] As exploration and development continue, drilling for unconventional oil and gas such as shale oil, shale gas, and tight gas is increasing, and encounters with ultra-deep and high-pressure salt-gypsum formations are becoming more frequent. Oil-based drilling fluids, due to their stable properties, are being used more extensively in complex formations such as shale and salt-gypsum layers, as well as in special structures such as extended reach wells, high-temperature deep wells, and ultra-deep wells, compensating for the weaknesses of water-based drilling fluids in terms of inhibition and lubrication.

[0003] Oil-based drilling fluids, as a non-aqueous fluid system, possess low friction coefficients, high lubricity, excellent fluid loss control, and good wellbore stability. However, the poor compatibility between oil-based drilling fluids and cement slurries is an unavoidable problem in the cementing process. The sensitivity of cement slurries to oil-based drilling fluids means this issue cannot be ignored.

[0004] In recent years, research on cementing technology has deepened both domestically and internationally. More and more researchers are focusing on the impact of oil-based drilling fluids on cementing, primarily on how to quickly clean oil-based drilling fluids adhering to the wellbore and casing walls, enabling the transition from an oil-wetting interface to a water-wetting interface, and further improving the bonding quality of the primary and secondary cementing interfaces. Therefore, before cementing operations, special flushing fluids are required to effectively address the difficulties in wellbore flushing and the cross-contamination between the separator fluid, cement slurry, and oil-based mud, meeting the demands of high-quality cementing.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention is hereby proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of this invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments described are merely illustrative of the invention and should not be considered as specific limitations thereof. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention. Process parameters not specifically specified in the following embodiments are generally performed under conventional conditions.

[0031] The endpoints and any values ​​of the ranges disclosed in this invention are not limited to the precise ranges or values, and these ranges or values ​​should be understood to include values ​​close to these ranges or values. For numerical ranges, the endpoint values ​​of the various ranges, the endpoint values ​​of the various ranges and individual point values, and individual point values ​​can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, which should be considered as specifically disclosed in this invention.

[0032] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a cementing and flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluid is provided, comprising, by weight, the following raw material components: 18-25 parts of cosolvent (e.g., 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, or 25 parts), 15-20 parts of mineral oil (e.g., 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20 parts), and 5-10 parts of nonionic emulsifier (e.g., 5, 6, 7, or 8 parts). The ingredients are: 10-15 parts anionic emulsifier (e.g., 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 parts), 2-4 parts penetrant (e.g., 2, 3, 4 parts), 2-5 parts inorganic salt (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5 parts), 0.5-1 part defoamer (e.g., 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1 part), with the remainder being water; the total weight of the ingredients is 100.

[0033] The weight portions described in this invention mainly include the disclosed numerical range, any value (including integers and decimals) within the disclosed range, or an interval between any two values, or multiple discontinuous intervals. It also includes values ​​or numerical ranges whose effects are expected to be similar to the endpoints of the numerical range, such as 5-10 parts. This does not only include 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 parts, or any interval between any two parts. Other numerical ranges, not listed individually, are all included in this invention. Therefore, this invention also includes sub-ranges of any directly disclosed numerical range or any specific value within that range.

[0034] The cementing flushing fluid system for oil-based drilling fluid of the present invention is stable, has good rheological properties, and can be stored for a long time without stratification. Under the synergistic effect of each component, it can quickly and efficiently flush the oil-based drilling fluid adhering to the casing wall. It has good compatibility with oil-based drilling fluid, isolation fluid, and cement slurry system, and can effectively dilute oil-based drilling fluid and cement slurry.

[0035] Specifically, the synergistic effects are as follows: The oil phase of a mineral oil microemulsion is a non-polar liquid, primarily serving as the internal phase of the microemulsion. In microemulsions used for flushing oil-based drilling fluids, limonene and terpinene can be selected as the oil phase to avoid contamination from benzene-containing solvents. Cosolvents can enhance the surface activity of surfactants, forming oil-soluble micromicelles together with them, reducing the polarity of the aqueous phase or enhancing the polarity of the oil phase, thus affecting the phase behavior and properties of the emulsion system. Short-chain alcohols are soluble in oil, increasing the polarity of the oil phase. Simultaneously, due to their short carbon chains, they have a certain solubility in water, thus also dissolving in water and reducing the polarity of water. Short-chain alcohols facilitate the extension of surfactant molecules and can form interfacial composite films with surfactants in the emulsion; for example, n-pentanol can be selected as a cosolvent. Furthermore, ethylene glycol butyl ether is also an excellent organic solvent, showing particularly outstanding effects in dissolving oil stains.

[0036] The aqueous phase of a microemulsion is generally a salt solution. KCl is a common inorganic salt shale inhibitor that has a strong ability to inhibit the hydration and swelling of water-sensitive formations such as shale. For example, if KCl is used as the inorganic salt and a small amount of sodium tripolyphosphate is added, the pH value can be adjusted to a slightly alkaline state. In addition, sodium tripolyphosphate has a certain flushing effect and anti-collapse effect.

[0037] Anionic surfactants have strong temperature resistance and cleaning ability, making them commonly used oil stain cleaners, but they have poor salt resistance. Nonionic surfactants also have good oil and stain removal ability and are less affected by other salt ions. They are also highly resistant to hard water, but the rinsing efficiency of nonionic surfactants deteriorates after reaching their cloud point temperature.

[0038] In the aforementioned cementing and flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluids, as a preferred embodiment, the co-solvent includes one or more of ethylene glycol butyl ether, diethylene glycol butyl ether, n-butanol, and n-pentanol. Preferably, the co-solvent is a mixture of ethylene glycol butyl ether and n-pentanol; the mass ratio of ethylene glycol butyl ether to n-pentanol is 1:(0.5-1). By testing the solubility of several solvents for surfactants, ethylene glycol butyl ether showed the best effect. Simultaneously, by testing the interaction with surfactants, alcohols were prepared as co-surfactants at this ratio. When the number of carbon atoms in the carbon chain decreases, the salt width increases, and the salinity required to form a medium-phase microemulsion increases. The effect is better when the carbon chain of the alcohol is longer. Considering the affinity relationship with water, n-pentanol was selected. Furthermore, at this ratio, it is easier to form a microemulsion solution.

[0039] In the above-mentioned cementing and flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluids, as a preferred embodiment, the mineral oil is a mixture of limonene and terpinene; the mass ratio of limonene to terpinene is 1:

[0040] (0.8–1.5). By optimizing the mass ratio of limonene to terpinene at this ratio, a microemulsion state is easily formed.

[0041] In the above-mentioned cementing and flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluids, as a preferred embodiment, the nonionic emulsifier is a mixture of octylphenol polyoxyethylene ether and lauryl phosphate (MAE); the mass ratio of octylphenol polyoxyethylene ether to MAE is 1:(0.3-0.5). A mass ratio of octylphenol polyoxyethylene ether to MAE within this range is preferred for better flushing efficiency.

[0042] Optionally, the anionic emulsifier is a mixture of sodium fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sulfate (AES) and sodium dodecyl sulfate; the mass ratio of the anionic emulsifier AES to sodium dodecyl sulfate is 1:(0.5-1). This mass ratio of the anionic emulsifier AES to sodium dodecyl sulfate is preferably within this range for better rinsing efficiency.

[0043] In the above-mentioned cementing and flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluids, as a preferred embodiment, the penetrant is a mixture of JFC-2 (a condensate of fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide) and rapid penetrant T (sodium dioctyl sulfonate, mass fraction 50%); the mass ratio of JFC-2 to rapid penetrant T is 1:(0.5~1). A mass ratio of JFC-2 to rapid penetrant T preferably falls within this range for better flushing efficiency.

[0044] In the above-mentioned cementing flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluid, as a preferred embodiment, the inorganic salt is a mixture of potassium chloride and sodium tripolyphosphate; the mass ratio of potassium chloride to sodium tripolyphosphate is 1:(0.1~0.2); KCl is a common inorganic salt shale inhibitor with a strong ability to inhibit the hydration and swelling of water-sensitive formations such as shale. Therefore, KCl is selected as the inorganic salt, and a small amount of sodium tripolyphosphate is added to adjust the pH value to alkaline, and sodium tripolyphosphate has a certain flushing effect.

[0045] Optionally, the defoamer is a mixture of tributyl phosphate and organosilane, wherein the mass ratio of the mixture of tributyl phosphate and organosilane is 1:1.

[0046] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a method for preparing the cementing and flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluid as described above is provided, comprising the following steps:

[0047] S1. Dissolve the nonionic emulsifier in water at 50-55℃ and stir at low speed until it is completely dissolved to form solution A;

[0048] S2. Add anionic emulsifier to solution A, stir evenly, and continue stirring at low speed for a period of time to form solution B;

[0049] S3. Then, the penetrant, co-solvent, and mineral oil are added to solution B in sequence and stirred thoroughly to form solution C.

[0050] S4. Finally, add inorganic salts and defoamer to solution C, stir thoroughly, and cool to room temperature to obtain the cementing and flushing fluid for oil-based drilling fluid.

[0051] In the above preparation method, as a preferred embodiment, in step S1, the low-speed stirring conditions are: stirring rate 150-300 rpm; stirring time 30-40 min;

[0052] Optionally, in step S2, the low-speed stirring conditions are: stirring rate 150-300 rpm; stirring time 30-40 min.

[0053] Optionally, in step S3, the stirring time is 30 to 40 minutes.

[0054] According to a third aspect of the invention, the application of the oil-based drilling fluid cementing flushing fluid as described above and / or the oil-based drilling fluid cementing flushing fluid prepared by the above preparation method in cementing engineering is provided.

[0055] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to embodiments thereof. These examples are provided by way of explanation and not by way of limitation. In fact, those skilled in the art will recognize that modifications and variations can be made to the present invention without departing from its scope or spirit. For example, a feature shown or described as part of one embodiment may be used in another embodiment to produce yet another embodiment. Therefore, it is desirable that the present invention encompass such modifications and variations that fall within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.

[0104] Performance testing:

[0105] (1) Flushing efficiency evaluation experiment:

[0106] A diesel-based drilling fluid was selected, with the following formulation: diesel oil + 3.0% main co-solvent + 2.0% organic clay + 3.0% water-in-oil filtration reducer + 1.5% plugging agent type I + 1.0% plugging agent type II + 20% CaCl2 aqueous solution + 2.0% CaO + 0.2% wetting agent + 2.0% ultrafine calcium carbonate, with a density of 1.70 g / cm³. 3 White oil-based drilling fluid was selected. The white oil-based drilling fluid formula is as follows: white oil + 2.5% organic clay + 3.0% main co-solvent + 2.5% auxiliary solvent + 2.5% filtration loss reducer + 1.0% nano plugging agent + 0.4% flow pattern modifier + 3.0% CaO + barite + 20% CaCl2 aqueous solution.

[0107] Experimental methods:

[0108] Remove the rotating outer barrel of the rotational viscometer and weigh its mass W0 (g);

[0109] Immerse the lower 2 / 3 of the outer barrel of the rotational viscometer in white oil-based drilling fluid, apply the fluid at 100 r / min for 1 min, then soak for 20 min, let it drip for 3 min, and then remove it and weigh its mass W1 (g).

[0110] A washing solution at a certain temperature is filled into the sample cup of the rotational viscometer, with the liquid level reaching the graduation line of the sample cup;

[0111] Place the rotating outer barrel into the viscometer sample cup containing the rinsing solution, so that the scale line of the sample barrel is parallel to the liquid surface of the rinsing solution in the viscometer sample cup. Start the rotational viscometer and rotate it at 200 r / min for 5 min. After dripping for 3 min, remove the sample barrel and weigh its mass W2 (g).

[0114] In the formula: η—flushing efficiency, %

[0115] W0 — Mass of the rotating outer barrel (g);

[0116] W1 — Mass of the mixed sample and rotating outer barrel before rinsing (g);

[0118] Table 1: Data on the flushing effect of flushing fluid at 60℃

[0119]

[0120]

[0121]

[0122] Table 1 shows that the cementing flushing fluid achieves a flushing efficiency of up to 90% for white oil-based drilling fluids, demonstrating a strong flushing effect. Comparative Examples 1-2 show that without the addition of mineral oil or co-solvent, a microemulsion cannot be formed in the system, resulting in a significant reduction in flushing efficiency. Comparative Examples 5-6 show that using a single component of mineral oil or co-solvent provides a certain flushing effect, but it is not optimal. Similarly, Comparative Examples 3-4 show that using a single nonionic or anionic emulsifier also leads to a substantial reduction in flushing efficiency.

[0123] (2) Rheological test of rinsing fluid:

[0124] The cementing flushing fluid prepared in Example 5 was selected for rheological compatibility testing, and its density was 1.02 g / cm³. 3 .

[0125] A white oil-based drilling fluid was selected. The formulation of the white oil-based drilling fluid is as follows: white oil + 2.5% organic clay + 3.0% primary co-solvent + 2.5% auxiliary solvent + 2.5% filtration reducer + 1.0% nano-plugging agent + 0.4% flow pattern modifier + 3.0% CaO + 120% barite + 20% CaCl2 aqueous solution, with a density of 1.60 g / cm³. 3 The cement slurry system selected for on-site use has the following formula: Grade G cement + 2.5% water loss reducer BH-F202S + 0.2% retarder BH-R102L + water, with a density of 1.90 g / cm³. 3 .

[0126] Table 2: Rheological properties of the slurry

[0127]

[0128] Table 2 shows that after the flushing fluid was mixed with drilling fluid and cement slurry in different proportions, the slurry became thinner, and no thickening or flocculation occurred. This indicates that the flushing fluid has good rheological compatibility with drilling fluid and cement slurry.

[0129] (3) Rinse fluid compatibility test:

[0130] The cementing flushing fluid prepared in Example 5 was selected for rheological compatibility testing, and its density was 1.02 g / cm³. 3 Diesel-based drilling fluid was selected. The formulation of the diesel-based drilling fluid is as follows: diesel oil + 3.0% main co-solvent + 2.0% organic clay + 3.0% water-in-oil filtration reducer + 1.5% plugging agent type I + 1.0% plugging agent type II + 20% CaCl2 aqueous solution + 2.0% CaO + 0.2% wetting agent + 2.0% ultrafine calcium carbonate, with a density of 1.70 g / cm³. 3 The selected drilling fluid is a white oil-based fluid with the following formulation: white oil + 2.5% organic clay + 3.0% primary co-solvent + 2.5% auxiliary solvent + 2.5% filtration loss reducer + 1.0% nano-plugging agent + 0.4% flow pattern modifier + 3.0% CaO + barite + 20% CaCl2 aqueous solution. The selected cement slurry system is a cement slurry with the following formulation: Grade G cement + 3% expansion agent BH-P801S + 0.25% drag reducer BZGF-1 + 2% fluid loss reducer BH-F202S + 0.35% retarder BH-R102L + water, with a density of 1.90 g / cm³. 3 The compatibility of cementing flushing fluid, oil-based drilling fluid, and cement slurry with different proportions was investigated by thickening experiments at 60°C. The experimental results are shown in Table 3.

[0131] Table 3 Thickening experiments of oil-based drilling fluids, cement slurries, and flushing fluids at different proportions.

[0132]

[0133] As shown in Table 3, the flushing fluid, cement slurry, and oil-based drilling fluid do not exhibit gelation or flocculation after mixing. The initial consistency is ≤30 Bc, the linear abrupt change value of thickening is ≤10, and the thickening time is not shortened, demonstrating good compatibility.

[0134] In summary, the above evaluation experimental data show that the cementing flushing fluid of the present invention has excellent flushing effect, good compatibility with diesel-based drilling fluid, white oil-based drilling fluid and cement slurry, and can effectively improve cementing quality.
