Petroleum industry is focusing on high-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) reservoir. The major problem facing to HPHT reservoir is to generate enough bottomhole pressure without exceeding the limitations of equipment on the ground. In order to overcome these problems, weighted fracturing fluid system has been developed whose density can reach up to 1.50 g/cm3. This paper summarizes a study on formulating sodium bromide and sodium chloride as a combined weighted agent and a delayed crosslinked fracturing fluid system which is to cater the fluid and treatment guidelines for the fracturing application. Extensive studies were also conducted to determine temperature stability and anti-shear properties and gel broken.

Abstract Enhanced hydrocarbon production in a high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) carbonate reservoir, involves generating highly conductive channels using efficient diversion techniques and custom-designed acid-based fluid systems. Advanced stimulation design includes injection of different reactive fluids, which involves challenges associated with controlling fluid leak-off, implementing optimal diversion techniques, controlling acid reaction rates to withstand high-temperature conditions, and designing appropriate pumping schedules to increase well productivity and sustainability of its production through efficient acid etching and uniform fluid distribution in the pay zone. Laboratory tests such as rock mineralogy, acid etching on core samples and solubility tests on formation cuttings were performed to confirm rock dissolving capability, and to identify stimulation fluids that could generate optimal fracture lengths and maximus etching in the zone of interest while corrosion test was run to ensure corrosion control at HT conditions. After analyzing laboratory tests results, acid fluid systems were selected together with a self-crosslinking acid system for its diversion properties. In addition, customized pumping schedule was constructed using acid fracturing and diverting simulators and based on optimal conductivity/productivity results fluid stages number and sequence, flow rates and acid volumes were selected. The engineered acid treatment generated a network of conductive fractures that resulted in a significant improvement over initial production rate. Diverting agent efficiency was observed during pumping treatment by a 1,300 psi increase in surface pressures when the diverting agent entered the formation. Oil production increased from 648.7 to 3105.89 BPD, and gas production increased from 4.9 to 26.92 MMSCFD. This success results demonstrates that engineering design coupled with laboratory tailor fluids designs, integrated with a flawless execution, are the key to a successful stimulation. This paper describes the details of acidizing technique, treatment design and lessons learned during execution and results.

Due to the high temperature , great pressure and complex lithology of super-deep well bottom, there exist such problems such as high solid concentration, multiple but inaccurate treating chemicals, complex formulation with instability of drilling fluid system, resulting in a frequent occurrence of underground complex accident and a waste of a lot of manpower and material resources. Therefore, based on the analysis of performance factors of ultra-deep drilling fluid system, the approach of regulating water based drilling fluid properties of super-deep well has been found. Moreover, through screening and processing optimization of treating chemicals of ultra-deep well by single-factor method, three sets of anti-high-density and anti-high-temperature saturated brine drilling fluid systems with few kinds of treating chemicals, concise and simplified system, including: ① saturated brine drilling fluid with anti-temperature 180 °C and density 2.40 g/cm3 ; ② saturated brine drilling fluid with anti-temperature 200 °C and density 2.40g/cm3; ③ saturated brine drilling fluid with anti-temperature 220 °C and density 2.40g/cm3 . After the the evaluation of the overall performance of these three systems under respective experimental conditions, the results show that all of these systems have such advantages as good and strong rheology, water loss building capacity, inhibition, lubricity and blocking ability, etc, which could meet the requirements of ultra-deep drilling under different circumstances.

Focus on the high temperature rheological stability and the fluid loss control of resistance to high temperature drilling fluid system, further determine system formula and the formula of the high temperature drilling fluid system should be optimized. Eventually, a kind of organo-silica drilling fluid system of excellent performance which is resistant to high temperature of 220 degrees has been developed, and the system performances have been evaluated. The high temperature-resistant organo-silica drilling fluid system is of good shale inhibition, lubricity and borehole stability. The fluid loss is low and the filter cake is thin and tight, which can effectively prevent bit balling. The sand-carrying ability is good and the rheological property is easy to control. The performances of drilling fluid remain stable under high salinity and the system can resist the pollution of 6%NaCl and 0.5%CaC12. The materials used in this system are non-toxic, non-fluorescent and suitable for deep well drilling.
