Description

Application of crown ether transition metal complex in underground in-situ modification of thickened oil and underground in-situ modification method of thickened oil
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of thickened oil development and thermal recovery, and particularly relates to application of crown ether transition metal complexes in underground in-situ modification of thickened oil and a method for underground in-situ modification of thickened oil.
Background
The heavy oil reserves are abundant, account for nearly 70% of the remaining recoverable reserves, have great development potential, and have been widely concerned all the time. However, the viscous oil has low efficiency in conventional water drive development due to high viscosity and poor flow property, and an efficient development mode capable of reducing the viscosity of the viscous oil and improving the performance of the viscous oil is urgently needed. At present, the main development mode of the heavy oil is a thermal recovery technology taking steam flooding and SAGD as the dominance. However, as thermal recovery development enters the middle and later stages, the problems of high energy consumption, high pollution, low output ratio and the like are increasingly highlighted, and the effective development of energy conservation, consumption reduction, economy and environmental protection of thickened oil becomes a hotspot of research in recent years.
The in-situ thickened oil modifying technology is one technology of injecting modifying catalyst into oil reservoir to realize irreversible viscosity reducing of thickened oil in the oil reservoir, and is one new generation of thickened oil developing technology. At present, viscosity-reducing catalysts used in the thickened oil in-situ modification technology mainly comprise three types, namely water-soluble catalysts, oil-soluble catalysts and nano-catalysts. The nano catalyst has many problems in the process of liquid preparation construction and injection on the ground, is easy to damage a reservoir and has high cost. The water-soluble catalyst is cheap and easy to obtain, the process is simple, but the contact efficiency with crude oil in an oil reservoir is low, so that the catalytic effect is poor. The common oil-soluble catalyst can be well dispersed in oil, so that the contact and catalysis efficiency is improved, but the oil-soluble catalyst cannot be dissolved in water, a large amount of organic solvent is needed to carry and enter a stratum, the environmental pollution is serious, and the cost is high. The viscous oil in-situ modification viscosity-reducing catalyst is in conflict between injectability and contact catalysis efficiency, and a new generation of viscous oil modification viscosity-reducing agent which is more efficient and has water-soluble injectability and lipophilic contact catalysis is needed.
Disclosure of Invention

The crown ether transition metal complex has the functions of catalyzing cracking and viscosity reduction of thick oil, has good water-soluble performance at normal temperature, can be injected into a stratum along with water, has the characteristic of high-temperature oil solubility because the hydrophilic performance can be reduced along with the increase of temperature, and can spontaneously enter an oil phase catalytic modification reaction after the oil layer is heated.
