The novel fluid loss additive HTF-200C for oil field cementing

Abstract

Abstract The domestic fluid loss additives often have lower thermal stability and poor salt-tolerance and their comprehensive properties are not good enough. To solve the problems, a novel cement fluid loss additive HTF-200C, which can resist high temperature and high salt content, was synthesized using the monomers of 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-propane sulphonic acid (AMPS), N, N-dimethyl acrylamide (DMAA) and a new compound with double carboxyl by the method of aqueous solution polymerization. The microstructural characterization and application performance of HTF-200C show that the polymer with the structure of all the monomers has an excellent thermal stability and strong salt tolerance, and can be used in 200 °C or in saturated brine. And the problem of the normal fluid loss additive being easy to hydrolyze due to high temperature can be solved with HTF-200C. What's more, it can also deal with the bulge of thickening curve in consistency test. The cement slurry prepared mainly by HTF-200C presents good comprehensive properties such as low filtration, high thermal stability, strong salt tolerance, rapid development of strength in low temperature, without far delayed solidification, short transit time during thickening process, and so on. The cementing job quality of Well Chengu 1-3 in the Liaohe Oilfield is excellent after it is used.
