Description

Surfactant for efficiently improving recovery efficiency and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of chemical oil displacement for improving the recovery ratio of crude oil, and particularly relates to a surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery ratio and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the continuous progress of oil production, many areas of the world have entered the high water and extra high water phases of development. In order to increase the recovery rate of old oil fields and increase the recoverable reserves, tertiary oil recovery is often used to increase the recovery rate of crude oil after water flooding, which is also called Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) method, and generally refers to that after secondary oil recovery, the properties of oil, gas, water and rock are improved by injecting chemicals, heat, miscible solvents and other substances, so as to recover more oil.
Four major technological lines of tertiary oil recovery, namely chemical flooding, gas flooding, thermal flooding and microbial oil recovery, have now been developed around the world. Wherein the chemical flooding comprises polymer flooding, surfactant flooding, alkali water flooding and composite flooding technologies.
According to the existing analysis of potential for improving the oil recovery ratio in China, the water injection development of oil fields is suitable for covering geological reserves of chemical flooding methods by more than 60 hundred million tons, increasing the recoverable reserves by 9 hundred million tons and accounting for 76 percent of the potential of various methods for improving the oil recovery ratio, so that the method is the main attack direction of the research on improving the oil recovery ratio in China. In order to improve the existing oil field recovery ratio, the development of tertiary oil recovery technology is imperative. The oil displacement technology using the surface active agent as the main agent is the main technology of tertiary oil recovery in oil fields, and the oil displacement and precipitation effects are obvious. At present, the industrial application is gradually realized in large-scale oil fields such as Daqing oil fields and the like, and the method has better market prospect.
After an oil field enters a high water cut period, residual oil is trapped in the pores of reservoir rocks in a discontinuous oil film, and two main forces acting on oil droplets are viscous force and capillary force. If a proper surfactant system is used, the interfacial tension between oil and water is reduced, and the resistance caused by the deformation of oil droplets when residual oil moves is reduced, so that the oil displacement efficiency is improved.
The existing surfactants for efficiently improving the recovery ratio mainly comprise petroleum sulfonate, sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate, petroleum hydroxy acid salt, biosurfactant and the like, and all enter a pilot test stage to different degrees, so that the effect of improving the recovery ratio by 15-20% is achieved. But the production process and the production process of the respective surfactants are comprehensively considered, the production cost of the surfactants is higher, which is the root cause of the low tide of the international complex oil displacement technology; in the practical application process, the surfactant is influenced by the properties of crude oil in a reservoir, the temperature of the reservoir, the porosity, the permeability, the wetting characteristic and the like, the improvement effect of the surfactant on the oil recovery ratio is sometimes not obvious, and the surfactant is unstable in performance and easy to lose efficacy particularly at high temperature (above 70 ℃). Only by researching a surfactant and an oil displacement system which are cheap and efficient, the composite oil displacement technology can be fundamentally popularized and applied in a large scale. Therefore, the oil displacement agent which is efficient, cheap, stable in quality, reliable in process and free of pollution has wide market prospect in the aspect of synthesis and production of the surfactant.
For example, chinese patent CN111334276A discloses an oil displacement agent suitable for high-temperature low-salt oil reservoirs, which is a composite system of hydrophobic alkylbenzene sulfonate surfactant and hydrophilic sulfonate surfactant, and the weight ratio of the two is (90-30): (10-70); the oil displacement agent can form an oil displacement system together with a polymer and an oil displacement additive, so that a good effect of improving the recovery ratio by more than 30% of OOIP (oil-out-of-oil-water) compared with water displacement can be realized, but the oil displacement agent is completely composed of a surfactant, so that the production cost and the final use cost are overhigh, and the large-scale popularization and application are not facilitated.
For example, the anionic/nonionic surfactant oil displacement agent disclosed in Chinese patent CN104673263A is composed of fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether MOA and alkylbenzene sulfonate in a mass ratio of 1: 9-9: 1; the oil displacement agent can form a ternary composite oil displacement agent together with a polymer and alkali. The oil displacement agent can reduce the crude oil-water interfacial tension of a victory oil field to be ultra-low, but the oil displacement agent is composed of all surfactants, so that the production cost and the final use cost are overhigh, and the performance of reducing the oil-water interfacial tension and the oil displacement efficiency are still to be further improved.
Disclosure of Invention
Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for reducing the oil-water interfacial tension to 1.0 × 10 with good universality and low production cost-4The surfactant for high-efficiency enhanced recovery is lower than mN/m and can enhance the recovery of crude oil by at least 45 percent compared with water drive.
As a result of earnest and diligent studies to solve the above problems, the present inventors have found that a surfactant for high efficiency enhanced oil recovery having a specific composition can reduce the oil-water interfacial tension to 1.0X 10-4The compound oil displacement system formed by compounding the compound oil displacement system with sodium carbonate and/or polyacrylamide has the advantages of effectively improving the oil displacement efficiency and further improving the crude oil recovery ratio by more than 45 percent compared with water drive.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
the surfactant for high efficiency enhanced recovery consists of the following components:
10-16 wt.% of sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate, 10-18 wt.% of sodium benzene sulfonate, 15-25 wt.% of industrial sodium chloride and the balance of water, wherein the content of each component is calculated by the total weight of the surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery ratio; the sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate is a combination of sodium octadecyl benzene sulfonate and sodium octadecyl toluene sulfonate.
Wherein, the mass ratio of the sodium octadecyl benzene sulfonate to the sodium octadecyl toluene sulfonate is preferably 1: 3-3: 1, most preferably in a mass ratio of 1: 2.
the content of the sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate is more preferably 12-15 wt.%, and most preferably 13 wt.%.
The content of the sodium benzenesulfonate is more preferably 12-16 wt.%, and most preferably 14 wt.%.
The content of the industrial sodium chloride is more preferably 18-22 wt.%, and most preferably 20 wt.%.
The preparation method of the surfactant for high-efficiency enhanced oil recovery comprises the following steps:
1) preparing a material A: mixing and stirring sodium octadecyl benzene sulfonate and sodium octadecyl toluene sulfonate according to a metering ratio, then adding sodium benzene sulfonate, and continuously stirring for a certain time to obtain a material A;
2) preparing a material B: according to the metering ratio, firstly adding water, then adding industrial sodium chloride, and stirring for a certain time to obtain a material B;
3) mixing: and mixing the material B with the material A, and stirring for a certain time.
In the step 1), preferably, sodium octadecyl benzene sulfonate and sodium octadecyl toluene sulfonate are mixed and stirred for 10-15 minutes, sodium benzene sulfonate is added, and stirring is continued for 10-15 minutes to obtain the material A.
In the step 2), industrial sodium chloride is preferably added and then stirred for 10-15 minutes.
In the step 3), stirring is preferably carried out for 15 to 30 minutes.
The inventor of the application finds that the preparation process can obviously reduce the interfacial tension of oil and water compared with a one-step method of directly mixing all raw materials. Although the mechanism is not currently particularly clear, it may be associated with the pretreatment step of the raw materials (i.e. the separate preparation of materials A and B) effectively improving the properties of the micelles or microemulsions formed by mixing.
The invention also provides application of the surfactant for high-efficiency enhanced oil recovery in enhancing oil reservoir recovery.
When in use, the surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery efficiency can form a binary or ternary compound oil displacement system with alkali and/or polyacrylamide. Firstly, the surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery efficiency is utilized to reduce the oil-water interfacial tension, reduce rock stratum adsorption and improve the oil displacement efficiency; secondly, reducing the fluidity of the flooding phase by utilizing polyacrylamide, expanding sweep and profile control, and thirdly, changing the charge property of the rock surface by utilizing sodium carbonate, protecting expensive surfactant and polyacrylamide and reducing the loss of the surfactant and the polyacrylamide in the stratum; meanwhile, sodium carbonate can also react with acid components in crude oil to generate substances with surface activity in situ, so that the interfacial tension can be further reduced. The synergistic effect of the surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery ratio and sodium carbonate and/or polyacrylamide can realize the great improvement of the recovery ratio of an oil reservoir.
The molecular weight of the polyacrylamide is 1200-2500 ten thousand, preferably 1800-2000 ten thousand.
The polyacrylamide is preferably partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide, the hydrolysis degree of the polyacrylamide is 15-30, and the most preferable hydrolysis degree is 20-25.
The present inventors have found that the formation of ultra low interfacial tension between surfactant and oil water is one of the requirements for surfactant flooding in order for surfactant flooding to be successful. And in the case of a monomolecular surfactant layer at the oil-water interface, the conditions for forming the ultra-low interfacial tension are as follows: the affinity of the lipophilic group of the surfactant for oil molecules is as much as possible equal to the affinity of the hydrophilic group for water molecules. Otherwise, the surfactant is pulled into a liquid phase with strong affinity, is easily dissolved in a water phase or an oil phase, and is difficult to be enriched on an oil-water interface. Therefore, the water solubility or oil solubility of surfactants suitable as oil displacing agents should be relatively moderate, but not unbalanced.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. the surfactant for high efficiency and increasing recovery efficiency and crude oil can form ultralow interfacial tension (oil-water interfacial tension can be reduced to 1.0 x 10)-4mN/m toNext), for example, twelve-point interfacial tensions at 0.1 wt.%, 0.2 wt.%, 0.3 wt.% and sodium carbonate concentrations of 0.6 wt.%, 0.8 wt.%, 1.0 wt.%, 1.2 wt.% for high efficiency enhanced oil recovery are all 1.0 × 10-4mN/m or less.
2. The surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery efficiency can effectively improve the oil displacement efficiency and can improve the recovery efficiency of crude oil by more than 45 percent compared with water drive.
3. The surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery efficiency can adopt the combination of sodium octadecyl benzene sulfonate and sodium octadecyl toluene sulfonate as the sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate component, thereby effectively utilizing the synergistic effect of the sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate and the sodium octadecyl toluene sulfonate and reducing the oil-water interfacial tension to 1.0 multiplied by 10-4The recovery ratio of crude oil is improved by more than 54 percent even the highest value below mN/m compared with water drive.
4. The surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery efficiency can form a binary or ternary compound oil displacement system with sodium carbonate and/or polyacrylamide, and effectively improves the recovery efficiency of crude oil.
5. The surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery ratio has a simple preparation process, and the preparation process is environment-friendly and does not cause environmental pollution.

As can be seen from the test results of tables 1-4 (i.e., examples 1-4), the surfactant concentrations of 0.1 wt.%, 0.2 wt.%, 0.3 wt.%, and the sodium carbonate concentrations of 0.6 wt.%, 0.8 wt.%, 1.0 wt.%, and 1.2 wt.% for high efficiency enhanced oil recovery produced by the present invention all decreased to 1.0 × 10 wt.% twelve-point interfacial tension-4The mN/m is lower than the mN/m, and the ultralow oil-water interfacial tension is realized; the surfactant for high-efficiency enhanced oil recovery in example 4 (i.e., the composition of sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate is 13 wt.%, sodium benzenesulfonate is 14 wt.%, industrial sodium chloride is 20 wt.%, and water is the balance, and the sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate is a combination of sodium octadecyl alkylbenzene sulfonate and sodium octadecyl toluene sulfonate in a mass ratio of 1: 2) has relatively optimal comprehensive performance of reducing oil-water interfacial tension; to be more concreteIn example 2, although the oil-water interfacial tension was reduced, the contents of alkylbenzene sulfonic acid and sodium benzenesulfonate were high, and the production cost was significantly increased.
As can be seen from the test results of tables 5 to 6 and 14 to 15 (i.e., comparative examples 1 to 2 and 10 to 11), the composition of the surfactant for high efficiency enhanced oil recovery is not within the range defined by the present invention or the oil-water interfacial tension cannot be lowered to 1.0X 10- 4mN/m or less, or the production cost is extremely increased, and the economical efficiency is extremely poor.
As can be seen from the test results of tables 7 to 9 (i.e., comparative examples 3 to 5), the absence of any one of sodium alkylbenzenesulfonate, sodium benzenesulfonate and industrial sodium chloride in the composition of the surfactant for high-efficiency enhanced oil recovery failed to lower the oil-water interfacial tension to 1.0X 10 even though the sum of the contents of the components other than water was the same as in example 4-4The mN/m is lower than that, so that the synergistic effect exists among sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate, sodium benzene sulfonate and industrial sodium chloride in the surfactant for efficiently improving the recovery efficiency, and the performance of reducing the oil-water interfacial tension is obviously deteriorated if any one of the three components is lacked.
As can be further seen from the test results of tables 11-12 (i.e., comparative examples 6-7), when sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate is selected from the combination of sodium octadecyl benzene sulfonate and sodium octadecyl toluene sulfonate, particularly the mass ratio of the two is 1: 2, compared with the comparative examples 6-7, the oil-water interfacial tension value of the example 4 is even reduced by orders of magnitude, and the two are indeed synergistic, so that the performance of reducing the oil-water interfacial tension is unexpectedly improved.
It can also be seen from the results of the tests in tables 13 to 15 (i.e., comparative examples 8 to 11) that when the composition of sodium alkylbenzenesulfonate is changed, for example, one of sodium octadecylbenzenesulfonate and sodium octadecyltoluenesulfonate is replaced with the other, for example, sodium hexadecylbenzenesulfonate, the oil-water interfacial tension-lowering property thereof is remarkably deteriorated and the oil-water interfacial tension cannot be lowered to 1.0X 10-4mN/m or less.
Comparing the test results of table 16 (i.e., comparative example 12) and table 4 (i.e., example 4), it can be seen that the interfacial tension of oil and water can be significantly reduced by the preparation process of the present invention, compared to the one-step process. Although the mechanism is not currently particularly clear, it may be associated with a pretreatment step of the feedstock that effectively improves the properties of the micelles or microemulsions formed by mixing.
Oil displacement test and test result of composite oil displacement system
The preparation method comprises the steps of preparing a mixed surfactant solution by using injected water (injected clear water, reinjected sewage or formation water), wherein the mixed surfactant solution contains 0.1 wt.% of surfactant for high-efficiency enhanced recovery, 1.0 wt.% of sodium carbonate and 0.15 wt.% of polyacrylamide (molecular weight 2000 ten thousand) with the hydrolysis degree of 25, and uniformly stirring to prepare an oil displacement solution of a ternary composite system (alkali-surfactant-polyacrylamide).
The testing steps are as follows: the method comprises the steps of evacuating saturated water from the beret core, saturating crude oil, transferring the injection of a slug of a composite oil displacement system to 0.3PV when the water content is 94%, stopping the test when the water content is more than 98% continuously, and recording the recovery ratio of the water displacement and the increased value of the injection of the composite oil displacement system respectively, wherein the test results are shown in Table 17.

From the test results in table 17, it can be seen that the surfactant for high efficiency enhanced oil recovery produced by the present invention can improve the oil recovery by at least 45% compared with water flooding, and especially the surfactant for high efficiency enhanced oil recovery of example 4 can improve the oil recovery by more than 54% compared with water flooding, and the obvious improvement of the oil recovery is completely beyond the reasonable expectation range of those skilled in the art, which is a strong reflection of the intelligent contribution made by the inventors of the present invention.
