16 results about "Well stimulation" patented technology

Well stimulation is a well intervention performed on an oil or gas well to increase production by improving the flow of hydrocarbons from the reservoir into the well bore. It may be done using a well stimulator structure or using off shore ships / drilling vessels, also known as "Well stimulation vessels".

In-Hole Vaporization of Liquid Gas for Well Stimulation

An illustrative stimulation method includes: displacing a predetermined volume of liquified gas through a wellhead valve into a service tubing string providing access to a stimulation zone of a well; and closing the wellhead valve to confine the liquified gas and pressurize the stimulation zone as the service tubing string vaporizes the liquified gas. An illustrative well configured for stimulation includes: well casing within a borehole; a stainless-steel wellhead with a valve for receiving a liquified gas; and a stainless-steel service tubing string coupled to the valve to receive and vaporize the liquified gas. The service tubing string acts as a heat exchanger, using the downhole temperatures to vaporize the liquified gas.

The agent comprises 5.0–10.0 wt% succinate gemini polyoxyethylene ether, 3.0–5.0 wt% erucamide propyl hydroxysulfonate betaine, 10.0–20.0 wt% polyether-modified silicone oil, 1.0–3.0 wt% sodium xylenesulfonate, 1.0–2.0 wt% 1,2-propanediol, and 60.0–80.0 wt% deionized water. During preparation, a phase-conditioning fluid is added via high-shear emulsification combined with a cooling jet to obtain a nanoscale dispersion system. This invention utilizes the combination of gemini surfactant and betaine to improve phase stability under high temperature and high salinity conditions and effectively reduce interfacial tension; the steric hindrance of the modified silicone oil reduces formation adsorption losses; and the nanoscale droplets can penetrate deep into the micro- and nano-pore throats of low-permeability formations to strip crude oil, alleviating injection difficulties and synergistically achieving increased oil well production.

A heterogeneous reservoir biological composite plug removal process

The present application relates to the technical field of oilfield stimulation and reconstruction, and particularly relates to a biological composite plugging removal process for heterogeneous reservoirs, which comprises the following steps: (1) injecting a biological plugging removal fluid into an oil well; (2) injecting a diverting acid system into the oil well; (3) injecting the biological plugging removal fluid into the oil well; and (4) injecting a displacement fluid into the oil well. The biological plugging removal fluid first enters a high-permeability reservoir, effectively removes organic plugging caused by wax and asphaltene precipitation, and exposes inorganic impurities wrapped therein, which is beneficial to the subsequent dissolution of inorganic plugging by the diverting acid system. After the injection of the diverting acid system, the acid enters the high-permeability reservoir, effectively removes inorganic scale, and meets the needs of plugging removal in complex scale reservoirs of the oil well. With the acid-rock reaction, the viscosity of the acid system increases, temporarily plugs the high-permeability reservoir, forces the subsequent acid and biological plugging removal fluid to enter a low-permeability reservoir, so that the low-permeability oil layer is treated, and the needs of the heterogeneous oil well stimulation are met.
