埃洛石纳米流体制备及提高驱油采收率的研究

随着对石油的需求量持续增长,国内大多数二次采油已接近尾声,三次采油已是大势所趋,而化学驱是一种常用的三次开采的方法。本文研究了采用包覆改性埃洛石纳米管方法,通过溶胶凝胶法合成HNTs/SiO₂复合颗粒。通过红外光谱分析了表征产品的结构,证实HNTs和SiO₂不是简单的物理混合,而是发生了化学键合的作用。通过对不同浓度的样品的接触角测定,发现当浓度为0.05wt%时HNTs/SiO₂发生了润湿反转,由亲油状态变为亲水状态;并通过沉降时间观察、zeta电位测定,结果表明产物中包覆硅层会影响HNTs/SiO₂分散性。浓度为0.05wt%时,改性埃洛石纳米流体可提高原油采收率最大,高达28.18%。

分别采用N-十六烷基-N-(羟乙基)-N,N-二甲基溴化铵(CHDAB)和丁烷-1,4-二(N-十六烷基-N,N-二甲基溴化铵)(G16-4-16)2种阳离子表面活性剂作为金属表面修饰剂, 在石油醚/正丁醇/水混合体系中用KBH₄ 还原HAuCl₄制备出亲油性纳米金. 其中, 双子表面活性剂G16-4-16显示出更好的包裹分散作用, 其包裹的纳米金粒径分布范围较窄, 平均粒径为5.2 nm. 将该纳米金颗粒分散在液态烷烃、 甲苯和长链烷基醇等溶剂中可制成稳定的油基纳米流体. 采用紫外-可见光谱法跟踪热稳定性随时间的变化, 结果表明, 该纳米流体显示了较好的热稳定性, 在130 ℃稳定时间达20 h. 采用点热源法测定了该纳米流体的导热系数, 结果表明, 50 ℃时添加质量分数1.5%的纳米金可以使其导热系数增大约17%.     

纳米SiO2/HPAM/NaCl分散体系的稳定性、流变性及驱油性能研究

利用纳米粒度及Zeta电位分析仪、流变仪和悬滴法对纳米SiO_2/HPAM/NaCl体系60℃的稳定性、流变性及油水界面张力进行了研究。结果表明,HPAM的加入使SiO_2悬浮液的Zeta电位更负、粒径明显增加,静置10 d无明显浑浊现象。加入纳米SiO_2后,HPAM溶液的黏度增加,耐温、耐盐和耐剪切性能得到改善。对于质量分数为0.18%的HPAM溶液,SiO_2质量分数小于0.5%时,随SiO_2质量分数的增加,体系的黏度、储能模量和损耗模量增加,临界线性应变减小,蠕变回复能力增强;SiO_2质量分数大于0.5%时,出现了相反的现象;这是因为SiO_2质量分数不同时,HPAM在SiO_2表面的吸附量、吸附构型及两者之间形成的网状结构不同。纳米SiO_2的加入同时强化了HPAM降低油水界面张力的性能,加入质量分数为0.2%和0.5%的SiO_2后,HPAM的采收率分别提高了4.5%和6.0%。

The displacement efficiency and rheology of welan gum for enhanced heavy oil recovery

The displacement efficiency of welan gum on enhanced heavy oil recovery has been investigated by comparing that of xanthan gum which is commonly used for polymer flooding, and it is found that the displacement efficiency of biopolymer welan gum is higher (>7.0 % at the normal permeability) than that of xanthan gum. In‐depth rheological investigations show that both storage modulus and loss modulus of welan gum solution are higher than those of xanthan gum solutions at the same concentration, temperature and salinity. The higher displacement efficiency for enhanced heavy oil recovery by welan gum is mainly caused by its stronger ability to form aggregates. Although the molecular weight of welan gum is lower than that of xanthan gum, the aggregates of welan gum molecules help to improve the sweep efficiency. It is proposed that welan gum improves oil recovery by drawing and dragging on the residual oils which is derived from the interlinked network structures formed by the adjacent double helices in the arrangement of the zipper model. The intermolecular structures formed by zipper model are stable in high temperature and high salinity condition. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Research and application of ultralow interfacial tension oil displacement agent

An ultralow interfacial tension (IFT) oil displacement agent, which was a surfactant combinational system (HCS) with good salt and heat resistance, was synthesized using amphoteric betaine (AMS)/anionic sulfonate (AKS)/nonionic alkyl amide (NIS). The interface tensiometer was used to test the IFT. The results showed that the oil–water IFT could be as low as 10^?4 mN/m when the salinity is 10,000～50,000?mg/L, the concentration is 1～5?g/L, and the temperature is 40～80°C. The surfactant system has good emulsification stability. The displacement simulation experiments demonstrated that the increment of the recovery ratio can be up to 14.1%. The surfactant system could meet the demands of site operation.

Micro-BLMs on highly ordered porous silicon substrates: rupture process and lateral mobility

In a recent paper, we hypothesized that the continuous increase in membrane conductance observed for nano-BLMs is the result of an independent rupturing of single membranes or membrane patches covering the pores of the porous material. To prove this hypothesis, we prepared micro-BLMs on porous silicon substrates with a pore size of 7 mum. The upper surface of the silicon substrate was coated with a gold layer, followed by the chemisorption of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphothioethanol (DPPTE) and subsequent addition of a droplet of 1,2-diphytanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPhPC) dissolved in n-decane. The lipid membranes were fluorescently labeled and investigated by means of fluorescence microscopy and impedance spectroscopy. Impedance spectroscopy revealed the formation of pore-suspending bilayers with high membrane resistance. Increases in membrane capacitance and membrane conductance were observed. This increase in membrane conductance could be unambiguously related to the individual rupturing of membranes suspending the pores of the porous material as visualized by means of fluorescence microscopy. Moreover, by fluorescence recovery after photobleaching experiments, we investigated the lateral mobility of the lipids within the micro-BLMs leading to a mean effective diffusion coefficient of Deff = (14 +/- 1) microm2/s.

Electrophoretic mobility of oil droplets in electrolyte and surfactant solutions

Electrophoretic mobility of oil droplets of micron sizes in PBS and ionic surfactant solutions was measured in this paper. The experimental results show that, in addition to the applied electric field, the speed and the direction of electrophoretic motion of oil droplets depend on the surfactant concentration and on if the droplet is in negatively charged SDS solutions or in positively charged hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) solutions. The absolute value of the electrophoretic mobility increases with increased surfactant concentration before the surfactant concentration reaches to the CMC. It was also found that there are two vortices around the oil droplet under the applied electric field. The size of the vortices changes with the surfactant and with the electric field. The vortices around the droplet directly affect the drag of the flow field to the droplet motion and should be considered in the studies of electrophoretic mobility of oil droplets. The existence of the vortices will also influence the determination and the interpretation of the zeta potential of the oil droplets based on the measured mobility data.     

Emulsion particle size in porous media and its effect on the displacement efficiency

The emulsification process in reservoirs was simulated using core displacement experiments. Emulsions with different particle sizes were prepared using different permeability cores, and the different emulsion particle sizes formed using different permeability cores were studied. The emulsion particle size was graded against the core throat diameter, and the displacement efficiency of the different particle size emulsions was studied. The displacement mechanism of the emulsion was analyzed. The results indicated that the emulsion is mostly pore-throat scale formed in the porous media, with a particle size distribution similar to that of the core throat diameter, and the emulsion particle size increases with the increase of core permeability. The recovery percentage of emulsion flooding is greater when the matching ability of the emulsion was favorable, it is 17.07% when the matching factor is 1.08. The pore-throat scale emulsion can block high permeability zones and expand sweep volume. Moreover, due to deformation of the emulsion, the elastic stress can make the residual oil migrate forward and improve the efficiency of oil displacement.
