Abstract

Description

Drilling fluid emulsifier
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of drilling fluid emulsifiers, in particular to a drilling fluid emulsifier and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The base fluid of the drilling fluid is typically diesel or a less toxic mineral oil. The discontinuous phase in the drilling fluid is mostly brine. After stirring the drilling fluid for a period of time at a certain temperature, an emulsified drilling fluid which can show oil-like properties can be obtained, and a scholars refer to the drilling fluid as an inverse emulsified drilling fluid.
In general, the oil-water ratio of water-in-oil drilling fluids exceeds seventy percent, and is also known in the industry as drilling fluid. The external phase of the drilling fluid is oil, and the inherent property ensures that the drilling fluid has strong inhibition performance, and can be used for stabilizing the well wall, preventing collapse accidents and the like. The drilling fluid has good protection and stability performance for hydrocarbon reservoirs, especially water-sensitive geological reservoirs. Moreover, drilling fluids are generally required to have high temperature resistance and good lubricity at high temperatures, since such drilling fluids are required to be in service in deep well highly deviated wells and the like.
One of the problems in the art of drilling fluids today is how to increase the stability of emulsions, especially in high temperature service environments. During drilling, the emulsion is always subject to the undesirable tendency of the emulsification effect to be impaired or even to complete failure due to the high heat and high pressure generated by the friction of the drilling. Particularly when drilling deep thermal wells, the high temperatures can cause the emulsion to lose stability very easily. The emulsifier is an extremely critical raw material in a drilling fluid composition system, and the quality of the emulsifier and the stability of the emulsifier are extremely critical elements for guaranteeing the equilibrium state and long-term service reliability of each disperse phase in the drilling fluid emulsion composition system.
At present, the research on the high-temperature stability of drilling fluid is still in a development stage, and particularly, the research on the high-temperature stability of an emulsifier in the drilling fluid is greatly insufficient. The problems of the prior art on the emulsifier in the high-temperature service environment are mainly represented by large dosage, poor emulsification effect, poor reliability and stability in the high-temperature service environment, and the like. The reliability and stability of the emulsifier and the drilling fluid are obviously weakened after the emulsifier and the drilling fluid are aged at high temperature, and dangerous phenomena such as aging, thickening and the like often occur. Therefore, the development of an emulsifier for drilling fluid resistant to high-temperature environment has become one of the problems to be solved in the current urgent need.
The patent CN111139044A provides a composite emulsifier for drilling fluid and high-temperature-resistant ultra-high density drilling fluid, which consists of a main emulsifier, an auxiliary emulsifier, a wetting agent, a cutting agent, a temperature resistant agent and a pour point depressant.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects in the prior art, the invention provides a drilling fluid emulsifier and a preparation method thereof.
In order to solve the technical problems, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
the preparation method of the drilling fluid emulsifier comprises the following steps:
mixing water, a base agent, modified barite and zinc stearate, and homogenizing at a high speed to obtain the drilling fluid emulsifier.
Preferably, the preparation method of the drilling fluid emulsifier comprises the following steps:
mixing 70-95 parts by weight of water, 40-55 parts by weight of base agent, 5-13 parts by weight of modified barite and 1-3 parts by weight of zinc stearate at 20-30 ℃, and homogenizing at 2000-3000rpm for 12-17min to obtain the drilling fluid emulsifier.
Wherein, zinc stearate has good thermal stability.
The preparation method of the base agent comprises the following steps:
e1, mixing and stirring aqueous solutions of m-pentadecyl phenol, methyl epichlorohydrin and potassium hydroxide to obtain an intermediate product A;
e2, mixing the intermediate product A, ethylbenzene and water for reaction, heating, stirring, decompressing and distilling, and collecting distillate to obtain an intermediate product B;
e3, mixing the intermediate product B, absolute ethyl alcohol and isopropylamine, heating and stirring for reaction, then distilling under the conditions of heating, decompressing and stirring, and collecting distillate to obtain an intermediate product C;
e4, mixing the intermediate product C, isopropanol and 1, 3-propane sultone, heating and stirring for reaction, then distilling under the conditions of heating, decompressing and stirring, and collecting distillate to obtain an intermediate product D;
e5, mixing the intermediate product D with petroleum ether, stirring for reaction, and then suction filtering to obtain filter residues to obtain an intermediate product E;
e6, washing the intermediate product E by absolute ethyl alcohol, and then drying to obtain an intermediate product F;
e7 mixing the intermediate product F, sulfobetaine and potassium bromide and homogenizing to obtain the base agent.
In the technical scheme of the invention, meta-pentadecyl phenol and methyl epoxy chloropropane react to generate glycidyl ether, then the glycidyl ether reacts with isopropylamine to generate tertiary amine, and then the tertiary amine reacts with 1, 3-propane sultone to obtain the base material. In the base material, the sulfonic acid group functional group is taken as an equivalent negative charge center, so that the equilibrium steady state between the tertiary amino group with strong alkalinity and the strongly acidic sulfonic acid group can be achieved, and the base material has good interfacial activation capability in a larger pH variation range. In a drilling fluid system, the base material exists in a zwitterionic form, has higher surface activation capability, and because the tetradecyl sulfobetaine and the hexadecyl sulfobetaine are added in the preparation of the base material, the tension of the emulsifier at an oil-water interface is further reduced, so that the emulsifier can be fully adsorbed at the drilling fluid interface, the arrangement condition of molecules at the water-oil interface becomes more compact, and the strength of an interface film is enhanced, thereby enhancing the emulsifying capability of the emulsifier. The sulfonic acid group (-SO) is introduced into the basic agent of the emulsifier obtained by the invention 3 H) The film thickness of the hydration layer on the surface of the clay particles in the service environment is increased, and the characteristic can effectively maintain the adsorption position of the drilling fluid under the high-temperature condition, so that the thermal stability of the drilling fluid is improved. Moreover, the introduction of the sulfonic acid group can also increase the negative charge density on the surface of the clay particles so as to improve the zeta potential, further lead to the increase of electrostatic repulsive force between the clay particles, and enhance the electrostatic stability of the drilling fluid at high temperature.
The drilling fluid can be preferentially adsorbed in the stratum by adding a proper amount of potassium bromide in the preparation process of the base agent, so that the adsorption loss of the emulsifier is reduced, and the use efficiency of the emulsifier is improved. The emulsifier system obtained by the invention has a special internal salt structure, so that the emulsifier system does not show a tendency of accepting or releasing protons in a whole pH range. Therefore, the emulsifier can form a complex with high-valence metal ions and keep the activity of the complex, so that the complex has stronger capability of resisting calcium ions and magnesium ions, and can effectively prevent the emulsifier from losing effectiveness such as mineralization under a high-temperature service environment. According to the invention, the modified barite is prepared by a specific method, and the surface of the modified barite is treated by trichloroacetic acid and formic acid to generate the alumina hydrate coating layer with compact structure, so that the isoelectric point of the modified barite coated by the compact alumina hydrate coating layer has a tendency of shifting to high pH, the solubility, compatibility and dispersibility of the emulsifier and the organic solvent are improved, the occurrence of agglomeration phenomenon is prevented, and the emulsification effect is improved.

In the technical scheme of the invention, meta-pentadecyl phenol and methyl epoxy chloropropane react to generate glycidyl ether, then the glycidyl ether reacts with isopropylamine to generate tertiary amine, and then the tertiary amine reacts with 1, 3-propane sultone to obtain the base material. In the base material, the sulfonic acid group functional group is taken as an equivalent negative charge center, so that the equilibrium steady state between the tertiary amino group with strong alkalinity and the strongly acidic sulfonic acid group can be achieved, and the base material has good interfacial activation capability in a larger pH variation range. In a drilling fluid system, the base material exists in a zwitterionic form, has higher surface activation capability, and because the tetradecyl sulfobetaine and the hexadecyl sulfobetaine are added in the preparation of the base material, the tension of the emulsifier at an oil-water interface is further reduced, so that the emulsifier can be fully adsorbed at the drilling fluid interface, the arrangement condition of molecules at the water-oil interface becomes more compact, the strength of an interface film is enhanced, and the emulsion is enhancedEmulsifying capacity of the agent. The sulfonic acid group (-SO) is introduced into the basic agent of the emulsifier obtained by the invention 3 H) The film thickness of the hydration layer on the surface of the clay particles in the service environment is increased, and the characteristic can effectively maintain the adsorption position of the drilling fluid under the high-temperature condition, so that the thermal stability of the drilling fluid is improved. Moreover, the introduction of the sulfonic acid group can also increase the negative charge density on the surface of the clay particles so as to improve the zeta potential, further lead to the increase of electrostatic repulsive force of the clay particles and enhance the electrostatic stability of the drilling fluid at high temperature. The drilling fluid can be preferentially adsorbed in the stratum by adding a proper amount of potassium bromide in the preparation process of the base agent, so that the adsorption loss of the emulsifier is reduced, and the use efficiency of the emulsifier is improved. The emulsifier system obtained by the invention has a special internal salt structure, so that the emulsifier system does not show a tendency of accepting or releasing protons in a whole pH range. Therefore, the emulsifier can form a complex with high-valence metal ions and keep the activity of the complex, so that the complex has stronger capability of resisting calcium ions and magnesium ions, and can effectively prevent the emulsifier from losing effectiveness such as mineralization under a high-temperature service environment. According to the invention, the modified barite is prepared by a specific method, and the surface of the modified barite is treated by trichloroacetic acid and formic acid to generate the alumina hydrate coating layer with compact structure, so that the isoelectric point of the modified barite coated by the compact alumina hydrate coating layer has a tendency of shifting to high pH, the solubility, compatibility and dispersibility of the emulsifier and the organic solvent are improved, the occurrence of agglomeration phenomenon is prevented, and the emulsification effect is improved.
