    摘要: The invention relates to a method for modifying the water permeability of a subterranean formation, comprising at least the following steps:



    Preparing an injection fluid from a dispersion of a hydrophilic phase in a lipophilic phase, with water or brine, the dispersion comprising:

    a hydrophilic phase comprising at least one cross-linked (co)polymer PR,
    a lipophilic phase,
    at least one interface polymer composed of at least one monomer of formula (I):












    Injecting the injection fluid into the subterranean formation,
    said cross-linked (co)polymer PR forming a hydrogel in the presence of water.

    Resins for repair of well integrity issues

    摘要: The present disclosure may relate to a method of remediating a wellbore. The method may comprise pumping a resin treatment fluid from a surface location to an annular space bounded by an outer diameter of a production tubular, wherein the resin treatment fluid comprises a liquid hardenable resin, a hardening agent, and a particulate bridging agent. The resin treatment fluid may gravity settle in the annular space to contact production equipment in the annular space such that at least a portion of the particulate bridging agent bridges across one or more damaged sections of the production equipment, wherein at least a portion of the liquid hardenable resin sets to form a hardened mass to seal the one or more damaged sections.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a temperature-responsive self-degradable temporary plugging agent and a preparation method thereof as well as its application in plugging the wellbore, which relates to the technical field of oilfield exploitation. The temporary plugging agent provided in the present disclosure includes preparation raw materials of the following mass percentages: monomer 4-6%, crosslinker 0.2-1%, initiator 0.02-0.06%, degradation catalyst 0.05-0.1%, chain transfer agent 0.01-0.05%, and the balance water. The temporary plugging agent of the present disclosure is liquid before gelling, with a low viscosity and a good fluidity, and easy to be pumped. When being pumped into the wellbore, the temporary plugging agent may crosslink at the temperature of the reservoir section, with good gelling properties. At the end of the operations, it can be degraded by itself, without drilling tools, with no need for gel breaking, and with no need for additional degradation promoters.

    摘要: A plug for Plug and Abandonment (P&A) operations. The plug is a two-part plug of bismuth-based alloy and resin, allowing for sealing of an oil well using two different mechanisms with a shorter plug. The sealing can be rock-to-rock and/or cast-in-place.
