AbstractThe sharp strength recession of silicate cement in high temperature is the crucial reason of casings damage and zonal isolation failure in heavy oil thermal recovery. Although aluminophosphate cement has a better high temperature resistance in comparison with silicate cement, its compressive strength recession in high temperature slightly recessed. The results show that adding slag into aluminophosphate cement can not only develop compressive strength of cement at low temperature, but it can also improve the high temperature resistance of the cement. After adding slag, the formation of C2ASH8 conduces to develop cement strength at low temperature, and C3AS2H2 conduces to high temperature resistance. To increase temperature resistance of aluminophosphate cement, C3ASH4 generation and Al(OH)3 decomposition should be avoided. Crystal structure of cement after high temperature is well developed with compactly and neatly arranged, allowing cement to maintain good mechanical properties to help protect the casing and improve zonal isolation performance.

During the thermal recovery of heavy oil thermal recovery wells, improving the mechanical properties and integrity of the cement ring is of great significance for the safe and efficient exploitation of heavy oil resources. This paper studies the relative properties of calcium aluminate cement and three kinds of slags under the conditions of 50°C × 1.01 MPa and 315°C × 20.7 MPa. CAC-slag composite material performance was evaluated using the cement paste compressive strength and permeability tests to study the physical properties of CAC with blast furnace slag. X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermal analysis (DSC/TG) were carried out to investigate the mineralogical composition of CAC with blast furnace slag. Results show that adding blast furnace slag did not affect the performance of cement slurry. Moreover, C2ASH8 curing occurred at low temperature, the microstructure of CAC paste was compact, and the permeability resistance was improved, thus improving the low-temperature properties of neat CAC. When cured at a high temperature, the CAC paste was mainly hydrated with C3ASH4 and AlO(OH), which had a well-developed crystal structure. Adding blast furnace slag can improve the CAC resistance to high temperature.

This study presents an investigation into high-temperature resistance of alkali-activated slag concrete (AASC). Sodium oxide (Na2O) concentrations of 4%, 5% and 6% of slag weight and liquid sodium silicate (SiO2) with modulus ratio of 0.8 ( mass ratio of SiO2 to Na2O ) were used as activators to activate granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS). All cylindrical specimens with the same binder content and liquid/binder ratio of 0.5 were cast and cured in the air, under the saturated limewater and in a curing room at relative humidity of 80% RH and temperature of 60 °C, respectively. Test results demonstrate that the high-temperature resistance of AASC decreased with an increase of temperature. The compressive strength and high-temperature resistance of AASC improved with an increase dosage of Na2O and AASC cured at relative humidity of 80% RH and temperature of 60 °C has the superior performance, followed the AASC by air curing and saturated limewater curing. The higher compressive strength and superior high-temperature resistance have been obtained in AASC than comparable OPC.

Summary Achieving effective results using conventional thermal recovery technology is challenging in the deep undisturbed reservoir with extra-heavy oil in the LKQ oil field. Therefore, in this study, a novel approach based on in-situ combustion huff-and-puff technology is proposed. Through physical and numerical simulations of the reservoir, the oil recovery mechanism and key injection and production parameters of early-stage ultraheavy oil were investigated, and a series of key engineering supporting technologies were developed that were confirmed to be feasible via a pilot test. The results revealed that the ultraheavy oil in the LKQ oil field could achieve oxidation combustion under a high ignition temperature of greater than 450°C, where in-situ cracking and upgrading could occur, leading to greatly decreased viscosity of ultraheavy oil and significantly improved mobility. Moreover, it could achieve higher extra-heavy-oil production combined with the energy supplement of flue gas injection. The reasonable cycles of in-situ combustion huff and puff were five cycles, with the first cycle of gas injection of 300 000 m3 and the gas injection volume per cycle increasing in turn. It was predicted that the incremental oil production of a single well would be 500 t in one cycle. In addition, the supporting technologies were developed, such as a coiled-tubing electric ignition system, an integrated temperature and pressure monitoring system in coiled tubing, anticorrosion cementing and completion technology with high-temperature and high-pressure thermal recovery, and anticorrosion injection-production integrated lifting technology. The proposed method was applied to a pilot test in the YS3 well in the LKQ oil field. The high-pressure ignition was achieved in the 2200-m-deep well using the coiled-tubing electric igniter. The maximum temperature tolerance of the integrated monitoring system in coiled tubing reached up to 1200°C, which provided the functions of distributed temperature and multipoint pressure measurement in the entire wellbore. The combination of 13Cr-P110 casing and titanium alloy tubing effectively reduced the high-temperature and high-pressure oxygen corrosion of the wellbore. The successful field test of the comprehensive supporting engineering technologies presents a new approach for effective production in deep extra-heavy-oil reservoirs.
