Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

It is an important technical measure to solve the borehole wallinstability in mud shale formation to improve the bearing capacity of borehole wall while drilling through the interaction between drilling fluid and formation. By using the method of functionalization of polymer and introducing functional groups with strong adhesion and cementation properties, a new type of chemical cementing strong wall agent SLGB-1 was developed, forming strong wall drilling fluid technology. The solid wall performance was evaluated by lap shear strength test, core uniaxial compression test and scanning electron microscope analysis. The results show that SLGB-1 adsorbed on the rock surface can improve the shear strength of rock sample in water and enhance the compressive strength of rock sample after soaking, and the performance of SLGB-1 is significantly better than the existing borehole wall stabilizer. The strong solid wall drilling fluid can cement the loose minerals in the micro-pores and micro-cracks of rock samples, effectively consolidate and plug them, so as to enhance the mechanical stability of rock while drilling. Two Wells were field tested with the rigid-wall drilling fluid technology. The test sections were regular in well diameter, and well diameter enlargement rate was low (< 10%), which was significantly lower than that of the offset Wells.
