Abstract

The article presents the results of experimental study on the effect of additives of silicon oxide nanoparticles, as well as single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes on the colloidal stability and thermal degradation process of hydrocarbon-based drilling fluids. Such a comprehensive study of hydrocarbon-based drilling fluids was carried out for the first time. The effect of the concentration and size of silicon oxide nanoparticles, as well as the type and concentration of nanotubes on the colloidal stability of drilling fluids during thermal aging tests at different temperatures, was investigated. The nanoparticle size varied from 18 to 70 nm, and the concentration ranged from 0.25 to 2 wt.%. Single-walled and multi-walled nanotubes were studied, whose concentration varied from 0.01 to 0.5 wt.%. The thermal aging temperature varied from 30 to 150 °C. According to the results of the investigation, it was shown that the temperature stability of hydrocarbon-based drilling fluids can be significantly improved by adding the above substances. At the same time, it was shown that the use of single-walled nanotubes for thermal stabilization of drilling fluids was several times more effective than the use of multi-walled nanotubes, and tens of times more effective than the use of spherical silicon oxide nanoparticles.
