  • Publication number: 20260125497
    Abstract: A polymer contains a sulfonate group, a benzene ring, and an unsaturated double bond at the same time. The molar ratio of the sulfonate group, the benzene ring, and the unsaturated double bond is 3-8:5-20:10-120. The number average molecular weight of the polymer is 1000-15000 g/mol. The polymer, as a viscosity reducer, has a high resistance to high concentrations of calcium and magnesium ions, a good viscosity reduction effect on super heavy oil, and good natural sedimentation and dehydration properties. It is resistant to viscosity rebound, has good water solubility, and has a simple matching injection process, and is suitable for practical use in oil fields.
