摘要:
A method of reclaiming a well completion brine solution by using an organic chelant that is capable of discriminating between (i) iron and non-zinc heavy metals; and (ii) calcium and zinc. The chelant contains a functional group selected from the group —CO2H or —PO(OH)R20 or a salt or ester thereof, —C(O)—, —OE, —SE, —N═C(R2)R3, EO—N═C(R2)R3, —N(R2)R3, and —N(C(O)R1)R2 group optionally substituted with a —COOH or —PO(OH)R20 or a salt or ester thereof, —SE or —OE group, wherein R2 and R3 are independently selected from E or forms, with nitrogen, phosphorous, oxygen or sulfur, a heterocyclic ring; E is R1 or —H; R1 is a C1–C30 alkyl or aralkyl group or a derivative thereof and R20 is —OH or R1.
摘要:
Fluid producing or injecting wells may be treated with a water-in-oil emulsion for the removal or inhibition of unwanted particulates, including pipe dope, asphaltenes and paraffins. In addition, such emulsions are effective in the displacement of oil base drilling muds and/or residues from such muds from wells. The emulsion may also be used to break the interfacial and/or rheological properties of oil base mud and synthetic oil base mud filter cakes, and act as a demulsifier to break the water-in-oil emulsion present in such oil base and synthetic oil base muds. The water-in-oil emulsions may optionally contain a dispersing agent as well as a surfactant.

摘要:
A thermal insulating packer fluid contains at least one water superabsorbent polymer and optionally water and/or brine, and a viscosifying polymer. The composition is capable of inhibiting unwanted heat loss from production tubing or uncontrolled heat transfer to outer annuli. The viscosity of the composition is sufficient to reduce the convection flow velocity within the annulus.
摘要:
A filter cake deposited by a drilling fluid, drill-in fluid or fluid loss control pill may be removed from a wellbore by introducing into the wellbore a dispersing agent of an organic amino phosphonic acid, ester or salt. The dispersing agent forms a dispersion containing at least a portion of the drilled solids. The dispersing agent may be introduced into the wellbore as a component of a filter cake removal treatment fluid or either prior to or after introduction of the filter cake removal treatment fluid.

A method of reclaiming a well completion brine solution by using an organic chelant that is capable of discriminating between (i) iron and/or non-zinc heavy metals; and (ii) calcium and zinc. The chelant is of the formula: and may be either a neutral compound, a corresponding salt, or a corresponding quaternary salt, wherein: D is F—A (Y3)u(Y4)v; R is independently selected from Cp or CpC(O); Cp is a C1–C36 hydrocarbyl group, optionally substituted with one or more substituents selected the group consisting of halogen, hydroxyl, sulfate, CH2CO2Z or —(CH2)nPO(OZ)2 groups; each A is independently selected from —N and —P; Y1 is independently selected from J, —[(F)—A(J)]wY6 and R; J, R1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5 and Y6 are independently selected from the group consisting of —H, R, —(F)nCO2Z and —(CH2)nPO(OZ)2; each F is independently selected from a C1–C12 hydrocarbyl group, optionally substituted with one or more substituents selected the group consisting of halogen, hydroxyl, sulfate, CH2CO2Z or —(CH2)nPO(OZ)2 groups; Z is —H or a balanced counterion of an alkali or alkaline earth metal or NH4+; m is 0 to 7; n is 1 to 7; r+s+t is 1 or 2; u+v is 1 or 2; and w is 0 to 7 provided when m is 0, no more than one of R1, Y1, Y2 and Y5 can be —H.
摘要:
An acid treatment composition is provided including a corrosion inhibitor and an optional corrosion inhibitor intensifier in an acidic solution. More specifically, the composition includes a propargylalcohol alkoxylated compound. Methods for treating wells with these acid treatment compositions are also provided that help control corrosion of the steel used in the wells during the acid treatment.
摘要:
An oil or gas well penetrating a subterranean formation, such as a carbonate formation, is treated with a well treatment fluid which contains an organic ester. The fluid may be an oil-in-water emulsion of the organic ester and an emulsifier or a homogeneous solution of organic ester and a water/mutual solvent solution. Acid is produced in-situ by hydrolysis of the organic ester.
