Problems solved by technology

The particle size of conventional weighting agents (such as barite powder) is usually between 10 μm and 70 μm. During the application process, there are often phenomena such as high barite sedimentation rate and uneven density of drilling fluid.
At the same time, the clogging of formation rock pore throats by solid particles such as barite also causes certain damage to oil and gas formations.

Abstract

The invention relates to a drilling fluid weighting agent and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of oil extraction. The weighting agent comprises the following components by weight: 60-80 parts of bauxite, 0.5-2 parts of lapis lazuli, 1-1.5 parts of monazite, 10-15 parts of silicon micro powder, 0.08-0.2 part of cetyl ethyl hexanoate, 0.2-0.45 part of polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monolaurate, 0.5-2 parts of a dispersant, 0.5-1 part of modified attapulgite and 20 to 30 parts of water. The preparation method of the drilling fluid weighting agent is simple, the prepared drilling fluid weighting agent is can improve the stability of the structural properties of mud, has good suspension stability, and can avoid the precipitation problem of a common weighting agent, at the same time, the drilling fluid weighting agent solid product can be directly applied to oil base mud weighting, can maintain for 45 days at high temperature, is far more surpass the common weighting agent in the prior art which can only maintain for 7 days, and is easy in popularization and application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of petroleum exploitation, and in particular relates to a weighting agent for drilling fluid and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] China's oil reserves are insufficient, and China's oil imports are far greater than exports, and the ratio is increasing year by year. It is believed that it will be difficult to see improvement in the future. With the rapid economic growth, China's demand for oil is also rising rapidly. Since 1996, China has become the third largest oil consumer after the United States and Japan. [0003] At present, oil fields in many countries around the world are moving towards deep and ultra-deep exploration and development, and high-density drilling and completion technology has become one of the key technologies to ensure safe and smooth drilling operations. High-density drilling and completion fluids need to add a large amount of solid phase weighting materials...
