Silicone polymer shows high performance for thickening supercritical carbon dioxide and has become a well-known target because it is inexpensive and environmentally friendly. In this study, siloxane polymer was synthesized by a copolymerization reaction. The synthesis conditions of the silicone polymer were optimized using a Box-Behnken design, and the yield from the process was considered as an evaluation criterion in the screening of the synthesis process. The thickening effect of the polymer was evaluated using an in-house-built ball viscometer with operation pressure not exceeding 30 MPa. The experiments clearly showed that temperature is the most crucial factor for the synthesis process. At higher preparation temperatures (>90 °C), the yield significantly decreased from the process. The stability of the yield was influenced by the change in the molar ratio and amount of the catalyst used in the preparation. The most optimal preparation parameter for the synthesis was at a temperature of 90 °C, with an aminopropyltriethoxysilane-to-methyl triethoxysilane molar ratio of 2 : 1, and 0.09 g of tetramethylammonium hydroxide as a catalyst. The test yield (84.51%) coordinated well with the predicted yield of 83.72%. Adding 3 wt% siloxane to pure carbon dioxide thickened it 5.7 times at 35 °C and 12 MPa. An enhanced yield trend was observed with increasing pressure and a temperature range of 35-55 °C. The application of CO2 fracturing technology can help to reduce the greenhouse effect and the environmental pollution caused by fluoropolymers as thickeners when silicone polymer is deployed as a thickener for CO2.
The efficient exploitation of marine oil and gas resources holds significant potential to mitigate the current severe energy crisis. Regrettably, incidents, such as gas kick and even blowouts, can significantly impact normal development activities. The displacement kill method is one effective strategy for well control in deep-water areas. In this study, the detailed mathematical method for determining kill parameters involved in the kill operation by using the displacement kill method was proposed. Of course, this includes both cases: one where the kill fluid leaks during the kill process and another where no leakage occurs. Meanwhile, its applicability was verified through comparison with experimental results. Then, evolution characteristics of kill parameters, when killing fluid leakage occurs and when it does not occur, were analyzed. Finally, factors, such as pit gain and shut-in casing pressure, affecting the kill parameters of kill operation, were explored. It was found that the experimental and calculated results show great similarity, although there are slight differences between them. The total kill time in the simulation is 44 s shorter than that in the verification experiment. This indicates that the model established in this study is suitable for simulating the process of kill operation using the displacement kill method. In addition, the investigation results show that leakage of kill fluid increases the difficulty of the kill operation and prolongs the operation time. The number of kill cycles in the presence of kill fluid leakage is one more than that when there is no fluid leakage, resulting in an additional 70 min of total duration. Furthermore, the increase in pit gain and the rise in shut-in casing pressure can also pose challenges to the kill operations. The total kill time will be extended by 164 min when the mud pit gain increases from 20 m3 to 50 m3. The number of kill cycles rises by two when the shut-in casing pressure is increased from 5 MPa to 20 MPa. To ensure the safety of the drilling operation in abnormally high-pressure reservoirs, it is crucial to monitor parameters such as casing pressure during the drilling process and timely well control measures.
In terms of Weishan irrigation district actuality,it is established that system of model that crops need for water to irrigate,the hydrology measure and report and the allocation water.System of the hydrology measure and report is consisted of system of surface water measure and report,system of groundwater measure and report,system of rain situation measure and report,system of soil moisture content measure and report.Message of crops to need for water come by in time feedback and synthesis analysis of system of the hydrology measure and report.Crops not need for water to irrigate in precipitation plenty condition,but in precipitation be short of condition first is groundwater,second is local surface water,third is cite the Yellow river water for order of irrigation allocation Water.Through combination of system of model that crops need for water to irrigate,the hydrology measure and report and the allocation water in Weishan irrigation district,crops is obtained water in good time and proper quantity and is undertaken with high,stable yields.
To circumvent the numerous deficiencies inherent to water-based fracturing fluids and the associated greenhouse effect, CO2 fracturing fluids are employed as a novel reservoir working fluid for reservoir reconstruction in unconventional oil fields. Herein, a mathematical model of CO2 fracturing crack propagation based on seepage–stress–damage coupling was constructed for analysing the effects of different drilling fluid components and reservoir parameters on the crack propagation behaviour of low permeability reservoirs. Additionally, the fracture expansion mechanism of CO2 fracturing fluid on low permeability reservoirs was elucidated through mechanical and chemical analysis. The findings demonstrated that CO2 fracturing fluid can effectively facilitate the expansion of cracks in low-permeability reservoirs, and thickener content, reservoir pressure, and reservoir parameters were identified as influencing factors in the expansion of reservoir cracks and the evolution of rock damage. The 5% CO2 thickener can increase the apparent viscosity and fracture length of CO2 fracturing fluid to 5.12 mPa·s and 58 m, respectively, which are significantly higher than the fluid viscosity (0.04 mPa·s) and expansion capacity (13 m) of pure CO2 fracturing fluid. Furthermore, various other factors significantly influence the fracture expansion capacity of CO2 fracturing fluid, thereby offering technical support for fracture propagation in low-permeability reservoirs and enhancing oil recovery.
