    Abstract
  • This paper summarizes progress made abroad on researches and application of micro foam drilling fluid in recent decade, including knowledge obtained about the micro mechanisms and rheology of micro foam drilling fluids. The authors present in the paper that, for the current technical status of the micro foam drilling fluids, the matching relationship between the sizes of foam and the sizes of pore throat is still not clearly understood; and there is a wide gap between laboratory evaluation on the blockage caused by micro foam and field application. Based on the problems presented above, the research direction of micro foam drilling fluid technology is discussed from three aspects, which are:the percolation flow pattern of micro foams in porous media and its affecting factors, chemical additives for micro foam drilling fluids, and the formulation method of micro foam drilling fluids. A mathematical model is needed to quantitatively describe the matching relationship between the sizes of micro foam and the sizes of pore throats in porous media, therefore to provide a theoretical reference for the application of micro foams in different reservoirs. The effects of "Jamin Effect" by the micro foams on the percolation flow capacity of reservoir fluids was studied to avoid the reduction of fluid production rate after operation with micro foam. Finally, the corresponding relation between laboratory experiment and field formulation conditions needs to be built up to unify the formulation criteria of micro foam drilling fluids.
