Chemical Fixed Point Sealing Technology in Oil Well

Abstract

When most oil fields have entered high water cut stage, the distribution of oil and water is more and more complex. Profile control and water shutoff is an important technology for water control and oil stabilization. Some types of water invasion in special reservoirs such as bottom water coning or edge water propelling in horizontal wells, water invasion in micro facture and big pore carry more challenges for profile control and water shutoff technology. Beyond that this technology is also affected by the plugging agent injection’s uncertainty and migration randomness. On the basis of earlier research, this paper introduces the plugging agent formulas, technology and field application of three types of technologies which are as follows, casing channeling treatment technology, water invasion plugging technology in interlayer and water invasion in horizontal well. The three types of fixed point sealing technology can achieve the accurate injection of shutoff agent and good results had obtained in site test.
