The article investigated the influence of the nature and content of coutchoucs, sevilens, vulcanizing groups, fillers, plasticizers, ingredients of directional action on the technological properties (plasticity, ring modulus, density, start time of vulcanization, stickiness) of two rubber mixtures. These indicators characterize the processability of rubber compounds in the manufacture of products from them. The study was conducted in order to select the basis of rubber compounds for the manufacture of the outer and inner layers of water-swellable sealing elements (WSSE). It has been established that rubber compounds for the outer layer based on butadiene-nitrile BNKS-18AMN, isoprene SKI-3 and ethylene-propylene SKEPT-40 coutchoucs, as well as the inner layer of WSSE based on butadiene-nitrile BNKS-18AMN, butadiene methylstyrene SKMS-30ARK and ethylene-propylene SKEPT-40 rubbers possess satisfactory technological properties. It was shown that these rubber mixtures which contain sevilen 11808-340, a vulcanizing group (sulfur + thiazole 2 MBS + guanid F), a combination of fillers (talc + grew 175 + Karelite MK), petroleum resin Sibplast, directional ingredients (vermiculite + needle punched cloth “Oksipan”), hydrosorption additives (polyacrylamide AK 639 + sodium polyacrylate), have improved technological properties. These rubber mixtures can be recommended as the basis for the manufacture of the outer and inner layers of water-swelling sealing elements for the oil and gas industry.

The article presents the results of a study of the effect of the technological active additive СD-12, which is a combination of zinc salts of fatty acids, on the physical and mechanical properties and resistance to aggressive media of rubber for sealing elements of packer-anchor equipment. The rubber mixture was prepared on the basis of hydrogenated nitrile-butadiene rubber Therban 3406, vulcanizing agent Novoperox BP-40, coagents for vulcanization of zinc monomethacrylate and oligoester acrylates MGF-9 and TGM-3, antioxidants Naugard 445 and agidol-2, fillers of technical carbon P 514 and T 900, filler dispersant stearic acid, rosin softener and other ingredients. To stabilize the physical and mechanical properties of vulcanizates, uniform dispersion of rubber components, reduce viscosity and improve vulcanization properties, a technological additive CD-12 was also introduced into the rubber mixture. The rubber mixture was prepared in a laboratory SKI-3L rubber mixer at a temperature not exceeding 70 °C for 7 min. The resulting mixture was vulcanized on a PV-100-2RT-2-PCD vulcanization press at a temperature of 150 °C for 60 minutes and then further vulcanized in a thermostat at a temperature of 160 °C for 6 hours. For the obtained vulcanizates, the physical and mechanical properties and resistance to the action of aggressive media were determined according to the standards existing in the rubber industry. On the basis of a rubber mixture heat-aggressive persistent sealing elements with a hardness of 70±5 Shore A units were made. These sealing elements as part of two sets of packer-anchor equipment were tested for tightness in a casing string simulator. The tests were carried out in an environment of PMS-200 polymethylsiloxane fluid at a temperature of 150 °C, an axial load of 6 tons and a pressure of 70 MPa. It is shown that both sets of packers have passed the tests and meet the requirements. The developed rubber mixture with a hardness of 70±5 Shore A units, containing the process additive СD-12, can be used for the manufacture of sealing elements for packers used in the oil and gas industry.

Water Swelling

Last decade has seen growing use of swelling elastomers in various applications by the oil and gas industry. Elastomers with special properties have been developed to sustain the specific downhole conditions of temperature, pressure, and chemical environment in different wells. Apart from targeted short-term tests conducted by rubber developers and drilling application companies, little is known about material characterization of such elastomers. Even these test results are not generally available in the public domain due to proprietary rights. In particular, an important factor that has not been previously explored is the effect of exposure on material response of swelling elastomers. Zonal isolation packers and other forms of elastomer-mounted tubulars are often stacked in open yards for a long time before their deployment in wells. Properties of elastomers may significantly change due to their exposure to air, sunlight, and humidity. Some results from a comparative study of the behavior of fresh and exposed samples of an ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM)-type water-swelling elastomers are reported here. Methodology of the swelling test was developed in consultation with petroleum engineers and rubber manufacturers. Other experiments were designed and performed in line with standard ASTM test methods. Properties of elastomers that are investigated are hardness, compression set, tensile set, tensile properties, and swelling behavior. Elastomer samples were allowed to swell for a total test duration of 1000 h. Two specimen geometries were tested for swelling: unconfined disc samples to study the behavior of free elastomer and plate samples (elastomer vulcanized on steel plate) to emulate the actual seal performance. Swelling was carried out in salt solutions of different concentrations and at different temperatures. Hardness of exposed elastomer samples (EPDM1) was generally higher than that of fresh samples (EPDM2). Similarly, exposed elastomer showed significantly higher amount of compression set when compared with fresh elastomer. Short-duration tensile set values (10 min test) were almost the same for both sample types. However, tensile set results for the longer-duration tests (10 h and 20 h) were higher for exposed samples. Surprisingly, stress–strain graphs for both fresh and exposed elastomers were almost linear, while rubber-type materials typically show a highly nonlinear behavior. Values of modulus of elasticity and stress at fracture were considerably higher for exposed samples. In contrast, percentage elongation results were higher for fresh samples. Amount of swelling against swelling time showed an up-and-down trend for both the sample types. At the same temperature and under brine solution of the same concentration, fresh elastomer generally swelled far more than the exposed one. The overall observation from the variety of experimental results is that exposure to sun and moisture for extended periods of time reduces the flexibility and swelling capacity of these elastomers.

Sealing Elements

Currently, in the oil and gas industry there is a growing demand for sealing elements capable of limited swelling upon contact with water and sealing the annular space of certain sections of the well. The swelling capacity of the sealing elements is predetermined by a well-chosen combination of polymer base and targeted functional ingredients. At the moment, a big drawback of water-swellable sealing elements is the loss of their sealing ability due to the washing out of hydrosorption additives from the sealing element. In this regard, in this work, the effect of hydrosorption polymers (polyacrylamide, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, polyvinyl alcohol and guar gum) on the properties of water-swellable rubber based on a combination of nitrile-butadiene SKN 1855, acrylate nipol AR22 and chloroprene CR 232 rubbers and epoxy 20 with sulfur curing system. The rubber mixture was prepared by mixing rubbers with ingredients on a laboratory roll LB 320 160/160. The rheological characteristics of the rubber compound were studied on an MDR 3000 Basic rheometer at 150 °C. Standard rubber samples were vulcanized at 150 °C for 30 min in a P-V-100-3RT-2-PCD vulcanization press. The main properties of vulcanizates were determined according to the standards in force in the rubber industry. It is shown that the introduction of polyacrylamide together with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol and guar gum into a rubber compound leads to a change in its rheological parameters. Vulcanizates containing a combination of polymers are characterized by lower values of the conventional tensile strength and rebound elasticity, but higher elongation at break and the degree of swelling in distilled and formation water as compared to the vulcanizate of the base version of the rubber mixture.

Federal tax revenues from the main sectors of the Russian economy after the 1998 crisis are examined in the article. Authors present the structure of revenues from these sectors by main taxes for 1999-2003 and prospects for 2004. Emphasis is given to an increasing dependence of budget on revenues from oil and gas industries. The share of proceeds from these sectors has reached 1/3 of total federal revenues. To explain this fact world oil prices dynamics and changes in tax legislation in Russia are considered. Empirical results show strong dependence of budget revenues on oil prices. The analysis of changes in tax legislation in oil and gas industry shows that the government has managed to redistribute resource rent in favor of the state.
