Abstract

The present invention relates to the well drilling field in petrochemical industry, and discloses a drilling fluid additive composition comprising a nano-plugging agent, a bionic wall bracing agent, a bionic shale inhibitor, an emulsifier, and an amphiphobic wettability reversal agent, wherein, the nano-plugging agent is modified silicon dioxide nano-particle, and its modifying group includes a modifying copolymer chain; the bionic wall bracing agent is carboxymethyl chitosan with a dopamine-derived group grafted on its main chain; the bionic shale inhibitor is composed of structural units of arginine and structural units of lysine; and the amphiphobic wettability reversal agent is a dual-cation fluorocarbon surfactant. The present invention further provides a pseudo oil-based drilling fluid suitable for horizontal shale gas wells containing the above composition. When the water-based drilling fluid contains the drilling fluid additive composition provided in the present invention, the water-based drilling fluid would have high temperature-resistance, high plugging and high inhibition performance, is environment friendly, especially have high density, and is especially suitable for…
