Evaluation of Flushing Ability of Cementing Flushing Fluids.

During cementing operation with oil-based drilling fluids, the casing and well wall are in the "oil wet" environment, and the cement slurry cannot achieve good cementation with the second interface, which seriously affects the cementation quality of the cementing interface. Therefore, it is very important to select a flushing fluid with good performance and high flushing efficiency for cementing operation with an oil-based drilling fluid. An integrated measurement system of interface parameters and a rotating liquid interface tension tester is selected in the room. A set of evaluation methods of wetting reversal is developed to evaluate the wetting reversal ability of type A and type-B flushing fluids on site to optimize the reasonable type and concentration of the flushing fluid. The experimental results show that under the same concentration, the surface tension and interfacial tension of type A flushing solution are lower than those of type-B; that is, the hydrophilic effect of type A flushing solution is better than that of type-B. The wettability reduction of type A is better than that of type-B. The wetting reversal ability of type A flushing solution with a surfactant concentration of 30% is better than that of type-B. The evaluation methods include surface tension, interface tension, dewetting ability, and oil washing ability of the flushing fluid, and the evaluation of the wetting reversal ability is carried out on the basis of the sandstone, sheet metal (steel for three open casings on site), and slide glass (as a reference). Then, according to the optimal concentration of the flushing fluid, a mixing experiment of the two kinds of flushing fluids is carried out to evaluate the ability of wetting reversal, and compared with the experimental results of A and B, the reasonable flushing fluid formula is finally selected. A proper analysis of the adaptability of the evaluation method of the flushing fluid is conducive to the reliable evaluation of the performance of the flushing fluid and the enhancement of the operator's ability to grasp the cementing quality. To guide the field practice has a very important practical significance, but it also has a guiding role for the development of new pre-liquid products.
