Definitions

  • Hydrocarbons are typically obtained from a subterranean geologic formation (i.e., a "reservoir") by drilling a well that penetrates the hydrocarbon- bearing formation.
  • a subterranean geologic formation i.e., a "reservoir”
  • hydrocarbons In order for hydrocarbons to be "produced,” that is, travel from the formation to the wellbore (and ultimately to the surface), there must be a sufficiently unimpeded flowpath from the formation into the wellbore.
  • One parameter that influences the rate of production is the permeability of the formation along the flowpath that the hydrocarbon must travel to reach the wellbore.
  • the formation rock has a naturally low permeability; other times, the permeability is reduced during, for instance, drilling the well.
  • drilling fluids are typically used in the well for a variety of functions.
  • a drilling fluid is often circulated into the hole to contact the region of a drill bit, for a number of reasons such as: to cool the drill bit, to carry the rock cuttings away from the point of drilling, and to maintain a hydrostatic pressure on the formation wall to prevent production during drilling.
  • the drilling fluids may be circulated through a drill pipe and drill bit into the wellbore, and then may subsequently flow upward through wellbore to the surface.
  • the drilling fluid may act to remove drill cuttings from the bottom of the hole to the surface, to suspend cuttings and weighting material when circulation is interrupted, to control subsurface pressures, to maintain the integrity of the wellbore until the well section is cased and cemented, to isolate the fluids from the formation by providing sufficient hydrostatic pressure to prevent the ingress of formation fluids into the wellbore, to cool and lubricate the drill string and bit, and/or to maximize penetration rate.
  • the drilling fluid can be lost by leaking into the formation.
  • filtercakes are formed when particles suspended in a wellbore fluid coat and plug the pores in the subterranean formation such that the filtercake prevents or reduces both the loss of fluids into the formation and the influx of fluids present in the formation.
  • a number of ways of forming filtercakes are known in the art, including the use of bridging particles, cuttings created by the drilling process, polymeric additives, and precipitates.
  • Fluid loss pills may also be used where a viscous pill comprising a polymer may be used to reduce the rate of loss of a wellbore fluid to the formation through its viscosity.
  • the filtercake and/or fluid loss pill may stabilize the wellbore during subsequent completion operations such as placement of a gravel pack in the wellbore.
  • a fluid loss pill of polymers may be "spotted" or placed in the wellbore.
  • Other completion fluids may be injected behind the fluid loss pill into a position within the wellbore which is immediately above a portion of the formation where fluid loss is suspected. Injection of fluids into the wellbore is then stopped, and fluid loss will then move the pill toward the fluid loss location to coat the formation and prevent or reduce future fluid loss.
  • the filtercake formed during drilling and/or completion
  • the sidewalls of the wellbore must typically be removed, because remaining residue of the filtercake may negatively impact production. That is, although filtercake formation and use of fluid loss pills are essential to drilling and completion operations, the barriers may be a significant impediment to the production of hydrocarbons or other fluids from the well, if, for example, the rock formation is still plugged by the barrier. Because the filtercake is compacted onto the rock face, it often adheres strongly to the formation and may not be readily or completely flushed out of the formation by another fluid degrading the filtercake on the wall.
  • bridging solids include, but are not limited to, magnesium and calcium carbonate, limestone, marble, dolomite, iron carbonate, iron oxide, and magnesium oxide.
  • One or more aspects of the present disclosure may be directed to wellbore fluids incorporating chelants present in a solid or particulate form therein, as well as to methods of using such wellbore fluids.

  • the solid chelants may solubilize and simultaneously serve as a chelating agent to aid in further well clean-up, scale prevention, or corrosion inhibition.
  • the solid particles may serve a dual role, their role being triggered by a change in the pH of the well.
  • the solid chelants that may be used in the wellbore fluids of the present disclosure may include phosphonic acid-type chelants.
