Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield chemical formulation technology, and in particular to a broad-spectrum condensate demulsifier and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Condensate oil is the liquid phase component condensed from condensate gas fields or associated gas in oil fields, also known as natural gasoline. Its main components are a mixture of C5 to C11+ hydrocarbons, containing small amounts of hydrocarbons larger than C8, as well as impurities such as sulfur dioxide, thiophenes, thiols, thioethers, and polysulfides. Condensate oil is classified into three types: paraffinic, intermediate, and naphthenic. In actual high-temperature, high-pressure condensate gas reservoirs, the hydrocarbon fluid is in a saturated gaseous state with a high condensate water content. This condensate water is produced along with the condensate oil during extraction. Simultaneously, due to different extraction methods, such as depletion-type secondary drainage, foam drainage, circulating gas injection, high-temperature deep well drainage gas production, acid fracturing, and other production and drainage processes, the condensate oil forms emulsified condensate oil under dynamic driving. Because of the complex composition of emulsified condensate oil, traditional conventional demulsifiers are difficult to effectively demulsify, requiring specialized research and extensive screening and compounding work for different types and components, which brings considerable difficulties to practical applications.
[0003] Patent CN103937539A discloses a condensate demulsifier, composed of various conventional polyethers and sulfonates, which is effective for demulsifying certain types of condensate oils, but not very effective for paraffinic condensate oils. Patent CN103980933A discloses a condensate demulsifier, composed of polyoxyethylene ether, polyethylene polyamine ether, sodium chloride, and citric acid, which can rapidly demulsify condensate oil after acid fusing, but its demulsification effect on emulsified condensate oil obtained from the foam drainage process is not ideal. Patent CN104498080A discloses a condensate demulsifier, composed of crosslinked block polyether, comb-type silica-containing demulsifier, and betaine fluorocarbon surfactant, which can effectively demulsify emulsified condensate oil obtained from the foam drainage process, but its demulsification effect on condensate oil after acid fusing is not ideal. Patent CN106947517A discloses an oil-soluble demulsifier for condensate oil, which is obtained by compounding conventional demulsifiers. It can effectively demulsify emulsified condensate oil obtained from foam drainage processes, but its demulsification effect on naphthenic condensate oil is not ideal, and its oil solubility is not environmentally friendly. Patent CN107459999A discloses a condensate oil demulsifier, which is compounded by cationic polyether demulsifiers, water purification and oil removal agents, allyl chloride, and gemini quaternary ammonium salt surfactants. It can effectively demulsify emulsified condensate oil obtained from foam drainage processes, but the dosage is 700-10000 ppm, resulting in high costs. Patent CN108165302A discloses a condensate oil demulsifier, which is obtained by compounding phenolic resin polyether after trans-butenedioic acid esterification with the neutralization product of methanesulfonic acid and monoethanolamine, but its low-temperature demulsification effect is not ideal.
