    摘要: A METHOD FOR INTRODUCING AN INHIBITORM E.G., AN INHIBITOR AGAINST SCALE FORMATION, INTO OIL WELL BRINES IS DISCLOSED. THIS METHOD COMPRISES INTRODUCING INTO THE POROUS RESERVOIR STRUCTURE, I.E., OIL-BEARING FORMATION ADJACENT TO THE BORE OF AN OIL WELL A RELATIVELY WATER OR BRINE INSOLUBLE POLYVALENT METAL SALT OF THE INHIBITOR, E.G., POLYACRYLIC ACID AND/OR HYDROLYZED POLYACRYLAMIDE, THE POLYACRYLIC ACID HAVING A MOLECULAR WEIGHT RANGE OF ABOUT 17,000 TO 50,000, AND THE HYDROLYZED POLYACRYLAMIDE HAVING FROM ABOUT 10% TO 50% UNHYDROLYZED AMIDE GROUP AND A MOLECULAR WEIGHT OF ABOUT 1,000 TO 8,000, IN WHICH THE METAL IS SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF ALKALINE EARTH METALS, ZN++. CU++, PB++, FE+++, CR+++, AND AL+++. THE METHOD COMPRISES IN SITU FORMATION OF THE RELATIVELY WATER OR BRINE INSOLUBLE POLYVALENT METAL SALT OF THE INHIBITOR E.G., POLYACRYLIC ACID AND/OR HYDROLYZED POLYACRYLAMIDE, IN THE RESERVOIR STRUCTURE BY INTRODUCING INTO THE POROUS STRUCTURE A WATER-SOLUBLE SALT OF THE INHIBITOR, E.G., THE SODIUM SALT OF THE POLYACRLIC ACID AND/ OR HYDROLYZED POLYACRYLAMIDE, AND A WATER-SOLUBLE SALT OR THE POLYVALENT METAL IN A STRONG ACID IN SOLUTION LUTION. IN THE IN SITU METHOD TSTRONGLY ACIDIC, AQIN SOLUTION INITIALLY INHIBITS REACTION OF THE SALTS BUT IS DISSIPATED BY THE FLUIDS IN THE OIL-BEARING FORMATION AND NEUTRALIZED BY THE FORMATION ROCK TO ALLOW REACTION AND FORMATION OF THE DESIRED WATER-SOLUBLE METAL SALT OF POLYACRYLIC ACID AND/ OR HYDROLYZED POLYACRYLAMIDE IN THE FORMATION.
