Problems solved by technology

[0004] At home and abroad, the industrial development of shale gas has been realized on the basis of medium and long-section horizontal wells. Strong plugging and strong inhibition oil-based drilling fluid can basically meet the needs of shale gas drilling, but the environmental acceptability is poor and the cost is high. Water-based drilling fluid replacing oil-based drilling fluid is the future development trend
Wellbore collapse is very serious during the drilling of long horizontal shale gas wells with water-based drilling fluids, which has become a technical bottleneck restricting the safe and efficient development of shale gas

The water-based drilling fluid comprises a nanofilm structure plugging agent, a waterproofing agent, a surface hydration inhibitor, polymeric alcohol, bentonite, polyanionic cellulose, a sulfonated lignite resin and water, wherein the waterproofing agent is N-perfluoroalkyl sulfonyl propyl triethoxysilane, and the nanofilm structure plugging agent includes a montmorillonite sheet, a structural unit shown as formula (1) and a structural unit shown as formula (2). The water-based drilling fluid provided by the invention shows good performance of inhibition, rheology and retarding of the shale compressive strength reduction when applied to stabilization of the shale gas stratum borehole wall.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of shale gas drilling, in particular to a water-based drilling fluid for stabilizing the well wall of a shale gas formation and its application. Background technique [0002] my country's shale gas geological resource reserves are 80×10 12 m 3 , the reserves of technically recoverable resources are (10~25)×10 12 m 3 , has a good prospect for exploration and development. Once the large-scale exploration and development is successful, it can effectively alleviate the contradiction between oil and gas supply and demand in my country. Therefore, shale gas exploration and development has become a major national strategy. [0003] The main difficulty in shale gas drilling lies in the problems of wellbore collapse, leakage, underpressure and pipe sticking caused by the strong water sensitivity of shale, the development of micro-fractures and fractures, long soaking time and large well inclination angle. The wel...
