摘要: A method of drilling a subterranean geological formation is described. The method includes driving a drill bit to form a wellbore in the subterranean geological formation thereby producing a formation fluid. The method includes injecting a drilling fluid into the subterranean geological formation through the wellbore. The drilling fluid includes 1 to 3 wt. % of a weighting agent which includes hydrophobic metallic zinc nanoparticles including a metallic core and organic ligands present on a surface of the metallic core, based on a total weight of the drilling fluid. The drilling fluid includes an invert emulsion including a continuous phase and a dispersive phase including water.

摘要: The present invention relates to a carbonate reservoir filtration-loss self-reducing acid fracturing method. The carbonate reservoir filtration-loss self-reducing acid fracturing method comprises the steps: (1) calculating a fracture pressure and a fracture extension pressure of a reconstructed reservoir; (2) injecting an agent A into a stratum under a pressure higher than the stratum fracture pressure, so that fractures are generated on the stratum; (3) injecting an agent B into the stratum under a pressure higher than the stratum fracture pressure, such that the agent B extends the fractures and communicates with a natural fracture net; (4) pumping an acid liquor system agent C with a high etching power into the stratum under a pressure higher than the extension pressure but lower than the fracture pressure to improve the conductivity of the fractures; (5) injecting a displacing liquid agent D under a pressure lower than the stratum fracture pressure to jack acid liquor in a well casing into the stratum; and (6) shutting down a well and performing flow-back. The agent A is a gel acid or VES acid, the agent B is a filtration-loss self-reducing gel acid or filtration-loss self-reducing VES acid, the agent C is closed acid, and the agent D is a displacing liquid. According to the method of the present invention, precipitation type solid filter cakes are formed on wall surfaces of the fractures by utilizing a filtration-loss self-reducing system, so as to perform temporary blocking to reduce the filtration loss. The technology is simple with easy injection, and the filtration-reducing agent is easy to disperse and flow back, and the method is safe and environment-friendly.

摘要: The rapid reaction of hydrofluoric acid with siliceous materials can make it difficult to increase the permeability of subterranean formations containing siliceous minerals. Methods for stimulating a subterranean formation can comprise: providing a latent hydrofluoric acid composition comprising a degradable matrix, and a hydrofluoric acid precursor dispersed in the degradable matrix; introducing a first treatment fluid containing the latent hydrofluoric acid composition in a non-dissolved form into a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation comprising a siliceous material; differentially depositing the latent hydrofluoric acid composition upon a portion of the siliceous material in one or more locations; degrading at least a portion of the degradable matrix, thereby exposing at least a portion of the hydrofluoric acid precursor; converting the exposed hydrofluoric acid precursor into hydrofluoric acid; and reacting the hydrofluoric acid with the siliceous material where the latent hydrofluoric acid composition was deposited.

摘要: Implementations provide flowing of fracturing fluids to subterranean zones. Actions can include In some examples, a method includes actions of flowing a mixture of a first quantity of acid and a second quantity of a polymer diverting agent (PDA) having a viscosity that changes with acid concentration to a first portion of a subterranean zone, wherein the first quantity decreases as the acid reacts with metal in the first portion, and wherein the viscosity of the PDA increases as the first quantity decreases to form a PDA gel and flowing a third quantity of acid through the subterranean zone, wherein the PDA gel diverts the acid from the first portion to a second portion of the subterranean zone.
