Abstract:

During shale gas well drilling and completion, the oil based muds (OBMs) would reduce the bonding strength of cement slurry by filter-cake and oil-wettability. At the same time, mixing cement slurry with the OBMs can lead to contamination, and subsequently creates significant problems, such as, reducing the normal thickening time and the compressive strength, and hence affecting the quality of the cementing of the shale gas well. Therefore in the present investigation, the mechanism of the interface displacement, wetting conversion and the contamination was explored by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and other methods. And then the new materials with the enhanced bonding strength and the contamination relieving by OBMs were obtained. The results showed that the chemical composition of filter-cake determined the properties of chemical preflush, the combined systems (LSS) efficiently flushed filter-cake and increased the bonding strength. It has been found that the reverse wetting agent (APG) has better reverse wetting properties than Tarim Oilfield current application system, which effectively changes the wettability of cementing surface from lipophilicity to hydrophilic. The OBMs and cement slurry mixing generated the emulsion structure and honeycomb structure, and the structures can affect the rheology and the strength of cement slurry; the contaminative relieve agent (SCW) can form a thin film on the surface of the cement stone, the film covers the hole and improves cement compressive strength, thus the SCW can relieve the contamination by OBMs.
