Experimental study on the temporary plugging performance of magnetic responsive hydrogel in hydraulic fracturing of hydrocarbon reservoirs
In this study, we designed a magnetic responsive hydrogel, also known as magnetorheological gel (MRG), based on a carbonyl iron particle@polyacrylamide (CIP@PAM) composite and a water-soluble PAM matrix to use as a temporary plugging agent (TPA) in the hydraulic fracturing of unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs. The CIP@PAM composite was synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), laser particle size analysis (LPSA) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). The results show that a thin and uniform PAM layer was successfully coated on the surface of the CIPs, which plays a key role in enhancing the antioxidant capacity of the CIPs. Meanwhile, the CIP@PAM composite possesses a high saturation magnetization (148.8 emu/g). MRG as a TPA has a high gel strength and magnetorheological effect under a magnetic field intensity of 1 T, providing a breakthrough pressure up to 38.13 MPa at room temperature . Compared with the conventional temporary plugging agent, MRG as the temporary plugging agent possesses high magnetic responsiveness to easily control, good degradability and recyclability, providing great potential application in hydraulic fracturing.
