The invention relates to a composition of matter especially adapted to injection into the ground, comprising an alkaline metal silicate and at least one water-soluble aminoplastic resin, wherein the aldehyde is selected from the group comprising formaldehyde, glyoxal and a mixture of glyoxal and formaldehyde, and the nitrogenous compound is urea.

Description

SPECIFICATION Injection composition for filling or reinforcing grounds This invention relates to a composition intended especially for injection into the ground either for filling in or strengthening it. More particularly, such composition is intended for preparing fluids for filling in storing-up rocks in oilfields.
Generally, upon assisted recovery of oil there is injected under pressure, through an injection well especially bored in the oil field, a displacement fluid for urging the residual crude oil contained in the storing rocks to the production well.
To obtain maximum oil recovery, permeability of the oilfields must be homogeneous, since otherwise the displacement fluid finds preferential ways through high permeability areas without penetrating less porous regions.
In order to obviate such drawback it has been attempted to fill in the most permeable zones prior to injection of the displacement fluid.
To this end, filling in fluids have been used containing gelifiable compounds such as those based on silica.
Filling in by silica gels has been known and used for assisted recovery of oil for many years (USA patent No 3,375,872). It is generally effected in two steps, so that in a first step an aqueous solution of alkaline metal silicate is injected into the oilfield and then, in a second step, such solution is gelified by injection of a reactive substance.
It is known to use aqueous solutions of sodium, potassium or lithium silicates with variable concentrations by weight from 0.1 to 10%, presenting various ratios of M20/SiO2 (M representing the alkaline metal) (USA patent No 3 805 893, 3 882 938, 4 004 639, 4 069 869, 4 081 029).
The reactive gelification substance is either a mineral salt such as calcium chloride (USA patent No 3 658 131), the ammonium sulfate (USA patent No 4 069 869), or an organic halogenated derivative such as sodium trichloro-acetate, degradable by hydrolysis upon release of a hydracid (USA patent No 4 293 440), or an aldehyde of a low molecular weight such as formaldehyde, glyoxal leading by Cannizzaro reaction to a carboxylic acid (USA patent No. 4 069 869).
Although such filling in methods have substantially improved production in old oilfields, constant increase in costs of oil products in recent years have led to searches for finding still more efficient filling in fluids.
The problem to be solved consisted in obtaining at the best price an atoxic filling fluid, gelifying in a controllable time variable from a few minutes to several hours, at variable temperatures from 40"C to more than 100"C, for deep oilfields, giving a time stable gel with a high sealing capacity, i.e. having the lowest possible shrinkage and syneresis.
The gels from gelification of aqueous solution of organic polymers such as polysaccharides or polyacrylamides (Earl V.ANDERSON Chem.Eng.News, 12-13 January 24 1977) generally degrade slowly in the course of time and therefore are to be rejected.
Consequently, mineral polymer gels based on silica have been looked for. In order to transform an aqueous solution of alkaline metal silicate to a silica polymer gel it is necessary to use a reactive gelification substance, called hardener by the man of the art, and on which the qualities of the obtained gel partly depends. When such reactive gelification substance is a metallic salt or an acid, too quick a gelification is obtained and due to this, the gel is poorly distributed in the storing rocks and injection of the filler is difficult or even impossible due to its increased viscosity.
Replacement of the metallic salt or the acid by an organic halogenated degradable product releasing a hydracid by hydrolysis practically does not lead to a gel but rather to an incoherent silica mass presenting a high syneresis rate probably due to too high an acidity. The hardeners based on aldehyde of a low molecular weight have themselves unacceptable setting time either too long in case of formaldehyde or too short in case of glyoxal, and in any case adjustable with difficulty for variable temperatures between 40"C and more than 100"C.
The object of this invention is therefore to develop a satisfactory solution of the problem raised above, i.e. providing a fluid composition for injection into the ground either to consolidate or sealing it off, based on an aqueous solution of alkaline metal silicate and capable of producing atoxic, not expensive gels of a high sealing capacity, of limited shrinkage, low syneresis rates, and stable in the course of time even if they are submitted to high temperatures and pressures, and having an adjustable setting time of a few minutes to several hours at temperatures of between 40"C to more than 100"C.
The Applicant however has surprisingly found that certain water-soluble aminoplastic resins in which the aldehyde is formaldehyde, glyoxal or a mixture of glyoxal and formaldehyde, and the nitrogenous compound is urea in admixture with aqueous solutions of alkaline metal silicates, produce such silica gels which are time stable even at high temperatures and pressures, and atoxic, little expensive, of a high sealing capacity, limited shrinkage, with low syneresis rates, and having high setting times.
Therefore the composition for injection nto grounds according to this invention consists of an aqueous solution of alkaline metal silicate and at least one water-soluble aminoplastic resin in which the aldehyde is selected from the group comprising formaldehyde, glyoxal and a mixture of glyoxal and formaldehyde, and the nitrogenous compound is urea.
The aqueous solutions of alkaline metal silicate used are those usually employed in this field by the man of the art. Thus, a composition according to this invention contains for 100 cm3, from 10 to 30 cm3 of a commercial aqueous solution of sodium silicate of a ratio by weight of SiO2/Na2O equal to 3.35 and a density of between 1.36 and 1.38.
Experience shows that urea-glyoxal resins are particularly efficient within the temperature range of 40-80"C and that the urea-glyoxalformaldehyde resins are well suited for higher temperatures of between 80 and 100"C. For temperatures higher than 100 C, urea-formaldehyde resins are preferred.
Water-soluble aminoplast resins of this type are known and used in the textile industry as finishing resins and some of them are described in the literature, for example (S.L.VAIL, Textile Research J., 1969, 39, 86-93; KIRK OTHMER, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 3rd edition, volume 2, pages 454-456, John Wiley and Sons, New York, 1979).
These water-soluble aminoplastic resins resins are prepared in a known manner for example by condensing, in aqueous medium at a pH of between 5 and 9, and at a temperature lower than 100"C, urea with either formaldehyde or glyoxal, or a mixture of glyoxal and formaldehyde, or successively glyoxal and then, formaldehyde. The molar proportions of these various constituents may vary in a wide range and these resins are generally obtained in aqueous solutions at concentrations that may reach in certain cases 70% by weight of dry materials.
Simply laboratory tests can easily determine the nature and quantity of water-soluble aminoplastic resins to be introduced into the aqueous solutions of alkaline metal silicates to obtain the composition according to the invention having the desired setting time and syneresis rate at a given temperature.
These test are effected at the selected temperature 0 generally of between 40 and 100"C with reactive previously heated to temperature O, in a series of wide-neck flasks provided with stoppers, and in which there was supplied for example 20 cm3 of an aqueous solution of sodium silicate of a ratio by weight of 3.35 and a density of 1.36-1.38, then X grams of water-soluble aminoplastic resin and qs water to bring the final volume of the composition to 100 cm3. The time interval between the preparation of the composition and its setting into mass, which is observable when it no longer flows upon turning upside down, defines the setting time.The syneresis rate is evaluated by measuring the liquid volume separated from the gel after 5 days-storage at the temperature 6, and it is expressed in cm3 for 100 cm3 of gel.
Starting from the laboratory tests, various curves can be plotted such as those permitting calculation of the setting time depending on either the temperature or the quantities of water-soluble aminoplastic resins used. They very easy access to water-soluble aminoplastic resins such as described above and the simplicity of the tests for determining the setting times and the syneresis rates readily enable the man of the art to realize the composition according to the invention that solve his problem.
By way of example, one can obtain setting times of 80, 90 and 120 minutes and syneresis rates of zero at a temperature of 95"C under the conditions described above, by respectively using 5, 4 and 3 grams of ARKO FIX NG which is a commercial urea-glyoxalformaldehyde resin; under the same conditions a setting time of 180 minutes and a syneresis rate of zero are obtained with 4 grams of commercial urea-formaldehyde resin having a molar ratio of formaldehyde to urea equal to 1.8.With 3 grams of a urea-glyoxal resin in aqueous solution at 50% by weight, having a molar ratio of glyoxal to urea equal to 2.1, there can be obtained under the above described conditions a setting time of 3 days at 40"C, of 380 minutes at 60"C, and 95 minutes at 80"C, with in all cases a syneresis rate lower than 5%.
The composition of this invention is very easily obtained merely by mixing its constituents. Usually, the selected water-soluble aminoplastic resin is dissolved in the desired quantity of commercial aqueous solution of alkaline metal silicate; then if necessary, the obtained solution is brought to the desired concentration.
As mentioned above, the composition according to the invention, comprising an alkaline metal silicate and at least one water-soluble aminoplastic resin of a urea-formaldehyde, urea-glyoxal or urea-glyoxal-formaldehyde condensation, is usable in particular for preparing filling in fluids for sealing porous grounds especially storing-up rocks in oilfields which are to be submitted to assisted recovery of oil. However, it can also be used successfully for consolidation of grounds, for example, on building tunnels, dams, and other underground structures of this type.
It will be understood that this invention was only described in a purely explanatory manner, not at all limitatively, and that any useful modification thereof can be effected without departing from its scope as defined in the ap
