Abstract

See full text

Gas leakage from oil wells through casing thread connections and other small leakage spaces is reduced or eliminated by injecting into the lift gas flowstream a sealant composition comprising a carrier liquid, such as diesel fuel or water, an ethoxylated phenol surfactant and particulate silica and/or Gilsonite. A liquid sealant composition is injected into oil wells on artificial gas lift comprising arctic diesel fuel, a surfactant and solubilized Gilsonite in a weight ratio of about 10:1 diesel fuel to Gilsonite and diesel fuel to surfactant, respectively. Effective reduction in leakage flow rates is obtained over a relatively short time period (one to ten hours).
