Chelate Based Acidizing Fluid Provides HSE Advantages in Successful North Sea Application
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Abstract Matrix stimulation is commonly utilized to increase well productivity and it is a process in which fluid selection plays a key role in treatment success. However, in offshore fields, the acid formulation must not only be effective in damage removal but it also has to meet stricter HSE regulations while safeguarding expensive and complex installations from corrosion impact. In high temperature environments or where sensitive metallurgy is deployed, higher doses of corrosion inhibitors are required as well as additional additives in order to avoid unwanted reactions, further complicating the handling and HSE aspects of such acids. The environmentally friendly chelate, glutamic acid N,N-diacetic acid GLDA, has been examined as an alternative for acidizing and descaling treatments, demonstrating good field performance in terms of productivity and injectivity increase. All this achieved while providing a safe and convenient system for handling, due its low toxicity, fewer required additives and biodegradability. Numerous laboratory tests have measured and confirmed considerably less corrosion risk, across a wide range of conditions, when compared to conventional formulations based on both HCl and organic acids. Within this paper, the field performance of the GLDA system will be evaluated under even more challenging conditions, endured during the acidizing of an offshore well in the North Sea. The wellwork programme for the low rate gas producer consisted of performing two new perforation runs, followed by the injection of the GLDA treatment, which was then bullheaded into the formation with a nitrogen assist. The treatment formulation consisted of GLDA diluted in fresh water with trace amounts of surfactant and mutual solvent to aid in the flow-back of the spent acid. Due to an unexpected power failure on the platform, the treatment remained stagnant in the tubing for some 28 hrs at 300°F. As this was the first GLDA treatment in this field, this situation appropriately raised potential well integrity concerns; as would most certainly have been the case with a conventional HCl acid package. However, once the operation was restarted the acid was successfully bullheaded into the formation and no issues resulted with the low carbon and CRA based metallurgy of the completion even after this extensive unplanned exposure. Additionally the treatment resulted in a significant productivity increase. These operations and results demonstrated not only the gentle nature of GLDA for integrity considerations; but also an effective cleanout of perforations and near wellbore area as required from a replacement system. The success of the treatment proved the intrinsic value and reduced risk that can be accessed by use of such systems.
