Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of oil and gas field development and exploitation technology, specifically relating to an alcohol-based chelated acid liquid system and its preparation method, usage method and application. Background Technology
[0002] Deep-water, low-permeability, and ultra-low-permeability carbonate reservoirs suffer from poor reservoir properties and seepage channels filled with clay and other matrix. During acid fracturing, conventional acid systems react with carbonate minerals to produce large amounts of divalent calcium and magnesium ions, easily leading to secondary precipitation. This causes the pores, which have been cleared by dissolution, to become blocked again, making acid injection difficult and hindering the effective expansion of seepage channels. This severely impacts the production enhancement effect of acid fracturing in these reservoirs. Furthermore, deep-water reservoirs, characterized by low temperatures and high pressures, often generate natural gas hydrates. Conventional acid systems used in acid fracturing of carbonate reservoirs cannot effectively lower the freezing point of natural gas hydrates to inhibit their formation. This results in natural gas hydrates easily causing "ice blockage" in production pipelines, posing a significant challenge to traditional acidizing processes.
[0003] Existing patents include: Chinese invention patent CN106590616A, which discloses an organic chelating acid system for oil and water well acidizing. This invention can effectively remove formation blockages, as well as waxes, asphalt, and inorganic scale. It has strong metal ion chelating ability, effectively preventing secondary precipitation during acidizing from damaging the formation; however, this system does not inhibit hydrate formation. Chinese invention patent CN108219767A discloses an offshore oilfield acidizing and production enhancement system and its preparation method. This invention uses chelating acid to provide H₂O. + It forms a chelated soil acid system with NH4F in the system. After entering the well, when encountering clay minerals and mud, the chelated acid continuously provides H2O. + At the same time, it consumes F in the system. Because chelating acids have a strong chelating ability for metals, they can ensure the chelation of heavy metals such as iron during the process, avoiding secondary sedimentation that could damage the reservoir; however, this system does not have the ability to inhibit hydrate formation. Chinese invention patent CN117683524A discloses an oilfield unblocking agent and method. This patent shows that an oilfield unblocking agent system integrating oil washing, oil displacement, and acidification is prepared using mixed benzene, multi-element organic acids, nonionic surfactants, chelating agents, and alcohols, which has the advantage of strong oil-based core dissolution ability; however, this system does not have the ability to dissolve clay minerals or inhibit hydrate formation.
[0004] Problems: Currently, the best method for suppressing secondary precipitation during acid fracturing in low-permeability and ultra-low-permeability reservoirs is to introduce chelating agents into the acid system. These chelating agents capture the metal cations generated by the acid-rock reaction, thus significantly inhibiting the formation of secondary precipitation. However, the unique low-temperature and high-pressure environment of deep-water reservoirs provides ideal conditions for the formation of natural gas hydrates, which can easily cause "ice blockage" in production pipelines during acid fracturing in deep-water low-permeability and ultra-low-permeability reservoirs. Unfortunately, the currently widely used acid systems have limited effectiveness in suppressing natural gas hydrate formation, severely affecting the effectiveness of acid fracturing in deep-water low-permeability and ultra-low-permeability reservoirs. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an acid system that can suppress both secondary precipitation and natural gas hydrate formation, in order to achieve a breakthrough in enhancing production through acid fracturing in complex lithology and oil and gas reservoirs in deep-water low-permeability and ultra-low-permeability environments.

[0021] Specifically, in a first aspect, the present invention provides an alcohol-based chelating acid system, comprising an alcohol, an acid, a chelating agent, a corrosion inhibitor, and a drainage aid.
[0022] An alcohol-based chelated acid system can be prepared from alcohols, acids, chelating agents, corrosion inhibitors, and drainage aids. Because it consists of alcohols, acids, and chelating agents, it can effectively dissolve clay and carbonate rock sediments in reservoirs, chelate metal ions to prevent secondary precipitation, lower the freezing point of natural gas hydrates, inhibit the formation of natural gas hydrates, and prevent "ice blockage" in production pipelines.
[0023] The components of the alcohol-based chelating acid system of the present invention are described in detail below: alcohol Alcohols inhibit the formation of natural gas hydrates by lowering their freezing point.
[0024] In some preferred embodiments, the alcohol includes one or more of isopropanol, n-butanol, n-pentanol, n-hexanol, ethylene glycol, and propylene glycol.
[0025] This invention uses the aforementioned alcohol to lower the freezing point of natural gas hydrates, thereby inhibiting the formation of natural gas hydrates in deep water environments and preventing damage from "ice blockage" in production pipelines.
[0026] In some preferred embodiments, the alcohol content in the alcohol-based chelating acid system of the present invention is 20%-80% by weight, for example 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75% or 80%.
[0027] In practice, when the alcohol content is too high, the chelating agent content decreases accordingly, and the ability to inhibit secondary precipitation is limited; when the alcohol content is low, the ability to inhibit natural gas hydrates decreases, and "ice blockage" is easily caused.
[0028] More preferably, the alcohol content in the alcohol-based chelating acid system is 25%-40% by weight.
[0029] acid Acid can effectively dissolve blockages in the matrix pores, dissolve reservoir minerals, connect reservoir storage spaces, and form high-permeability channels.
[0030] In some preferred embodiments, the acid solution includes one or more of industrial hydrochloric acid, formic acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, and aminosulfonic acid.
[0031] In some preferred embodiments, the content of acid in the alcohol-based chelated acid system of the present invention is 0.1%-10% by weight, for example, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9%, 9.5% or 10%.
[0032] In practice, excessively high acid content leads to excessively high corrosion rates and severe corrosion of the construction tubing; while insufficient acid content has limited ability to dissolve clay and carbonate rock precipitates in the reservoir. More preferably, the acid content in the alcohol-based chelated acid system is 1%-10% by weight.
[0033] Chelating agents Chelating agents extract metal ions (such as calcium, magnesium, barium, and strontium) from clay lattices by chelating them, forming nano-sized soluble oxygen clusters that disrupt the clay lattice and dissolve clay minerals. At the same time, they can chelate divalent cations formed by acid-rock reactions to prevent secondary precipitation and damage to the reservoir.
[0034] In some preferred embodiments, the chelating agent includes one or more of sodium citrate, trisodium hypotriacetate, trisodium hydroxyethylethylenediaminetriacetate, disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, tetrasodium aminotrimethylene phosphate, tetrasodium hydroxyethylidene diphosphate, pentasodium diethylenetriaminepentamethoxyate, pentasodium diethylenetriaminepentaacetate, and tetrasodium glutamate diacetate.
[0035] In some preferred embodiments, the content of the chelating agent in the alcohol-based chelating acid system of the present invention is 5%-60% by weight, for example 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55% or 60%.
[0036] In practice, when the chelating agent content is too low, the ability to remove clay minerals and inorganic scale decreases, and the ability to inhibit secondary precipitation decreases; when the chelating agent content is too high, the alcohol content decreases accordingly, and the ability to inhibit natural gas hydrates decreases.
[0037] More preferably, the content of chelating agent in the alcohol-based chelating acid system is 40%-50% by weight.
[0038] corrosion inhibitor Corrosion inhibitors are used to protect metal equipment and pipes from corrosion.
[0039] In some preferred embodiments, the corrosion inhibitor includes one or more of the following: chromates, nitrites, silicates, molybdates, tungstates, polyphosphates, zinc salts, thiolamides, imidazolines, hexamethylenetetramine, phosphonic acids (salts), phosphonic acids, thiobenzothiazoles, benzotriazoles, sulfonated lignins, polyethylenes, and polyaspartic acid.
[0040] In some preferred embodiments, the content of the corrosion inhibitor in the alcohol-based chelated acid system of the present invention is 0.1%-10% by weight, for example, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9%, 9.5% or 10%.
[0041] In practice, when the corrosion inhibitor content is too low, the corrosion of the construction pipe column by the acid solution is more severe; when the corrosion inhibitor content is too high, excess precipitates may form, leading to instability in the structure of the alcohol-based chelate acid solution.
[0042] More preferably, the content of corrosion inhibitor in the alcohol-based chelated acid system is 0.1%-1% by weight.
[0043] Drainage aid Drainage aids are used to reduce interfacial tension, increase the speed and extent of drainage, and prevent clogging and emulsification.
[0044] In some preferred embodiments, the discharge aid is one or more of the following: anionic fluorocarbon surfactant, cationic fluorocarbon surfactant, nonionic fluorocarbon surfactant, amphoteric fluorocarbon surfactant, silicone-containing fluorocarbon surfactant, hybrid fluorocarbon surfactant, long-chain fluorocarbon surfactant, and hydrophilic-free fluorocarbon surfactant.
[0045] In some preferred embodiments, the content of the excretion aid in the alcohol-based chelated acid system of the present invention is 0.1%-10% by weight, for example, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9%, 9.5% or 10%.
[0046] In practice, when the content of the drainage aid is too low, the viscosity is too high, making preparation and use difficult; when the content of the drainage aid is too high, it is difficult to form a structurally stable alcohol-based chelated acid liquid system.
[0047] More preferably, the content of the discharge aid in the alcohol-based chelated acid system is 0.1%-1% by weight.
[0048] The alcohol-based chelating acid system provided by this invention can effectively expand and connect pores filled with argillaceous matrix, while having the characteristics of not damaging the rock skeleton, inhibiting secondary precipitation and natural gas hydrate formation, and has a good effect on acid fracturing and acid treatment of deep-water high-porosity and low-permeability limestone reservoirs.
[0049] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned alcohol-based chelated acid system, comprising: mixing alcohol, acid, chelating agent, corrosion inhibitor and drainage aid in proportion, and stirring at 0-50°C for 0.5-2 hours to obtain the alcohol-based chelated acid system.
[0050] The preparation method of the alcohol-based chelated acid system of the present invention is simple to prepare and convenient to operate on site, which is of great significance for oil and gas field development and exploitation.
[0051] Thirdly, the present invention provides a method for using the above-mentioned alcohol-based chelating acid system, comprising: (1) Inject test fluid into the well; (2) Inject an alcohol-based chelated acid system into the well; (3) Inject displacement fluid into the well; (4) Well shut-in reaction time: 4-48 hours; (5) Backflow.
[0052] The alcohol-based chelating acid system of the present invention is simple to use and can effectively chelate various ions generated by the acid etching reaction, prevent precipitation, ensure that the pores cleared by acid etching are not contaminated and blocked, and at the same time lower the freezing point of natural gas hydrate, inhibit the formation of natural gas hydrate, avoid "ice blockage" in production pipelines, and greatly improve acidification efficiency.
[0053] In some preferred embodiments, the flow rate of the test liquid is 0.1-1.5 m³. 3 / min; the displacement of the alcohol-based chelated acid system is 0.1-1.5 m³ / min. 3 / min; the displacement fluid displacement is 0.1-1.5 m³ / min. 3 / min.
[0054] Fourthly, the present invention also provides the application of the above-mentioned alcohol-based chelated acid system in the development and exploitation of carbonate oil and gas reservoirs.
[0055] The alcohol-based chelating acid system of this invention can effectively chelate various ions generated by the acid etching reaction, preventing the formation of precipitates and natural gas hydrates, ensuring that the pores cleared by acid etching are not contaminated or blocked, and preventing "ice blockage" of production pipelines. After acidification, the pH of the return liquid remains at 6-8, and the residual liquid does not require neutralization, indicating that the return liquid of this system can be directly fed into tanks or the production process without special treatment, which is of great significance for oil and gas field development and exploitation.

[0098] The method for measuring permeability improvement was performed in accordance with the method specified in 9.4.3 of "SY-T 5358-2010 Evaluation Method for Reservoir Sensitivity Flow Test". The test results are shown in Table 12.
[0099] Table 12 Displacement Experiment Data
[0100] Comparative Example 1: 20% hydrochloric acid system Prepare a 20% hydrochloric acid system: 20% HCl + 1% corrosion inhibitor + 1% iron stabilizer + 1% drainage aid + the remainder water.
[0101] The HCl was 31% industrial hydrochloric acid, purchased from Tianjin Development Zone Kuayue Industry & Trade Co., Ltd.; the corrosion inhibitor was an imidazoline corrosion inhibitor, also purchased from Tianjin Development Zone Kuayue Industry & Trade Co., Ltd.; the iron stabilizer was citric acid, also purchased from Tianjin Development Zone Kuayue Industry & Trade Co., Ltd.; and the discharge aid was a fluorocarbon surfactant (C8F). 17 SO2NHC3H7NR2(O) was purchased from Tianjin Development Zone Kuayue Industry and Trade Co., Ltd.
[0102] The rock fragment dissolution rate and permeability improvement rate of the hydrochloric acid system were tested using the same method as in Example 1. The rock fragment dissolution rate of the 20% hydrochloric acid system was 42%. Core displacement experiments (20% HCl, temperature: 50-60℃, pressure difference: 20-30MPa) showed that the core was dense with no obvious cracks. During acid displacement, the core was held under pressure for 2 hours, and the acid did not penetrate the core. After acid etching, the core inlet face was relatively smooth, and no obvious visible wormholes were formed.
[0103] Comparative experiments show that the hydrochloric acid system alone is less effective than the alcoholic acid system in improving the seepage capacity of tight cores and cannot effectively improve tight reservoirs.
