  In the experiment, the filtrate loss of synthetic fluid loss control fluid was recorded in room temperature and high temperature in the composite brine base and sodium chloride brine base slurry, and compared with the filtrate loss before base polymer addition. In this way, the effect of filtration loss and salt resistance and temperature resistance of synthetic polymers were evaluated. The influence of the synthesized polymer on the rheological properties of the composite brine was also evaluated by determining the viscosity of the drilling fluid added to the base slurry and polymer. In the end, the structure of the synthetic polymers was characterized through the infrared spectrum, which initially analyzed through the mechanism of its function in reducing the filter loss. Finally, the products produced according to the recipe are given to the site and added to the two wells to record the drilling fluid performance data.

Introduction</title><p>The filtrate reducer is commonly used oilfield chemicals additives in oilfield drilling fluid. During the process of drilling, drilling fluid filtrate invasion into the stratum will cause mud shale hydration swelling and reservoir damage, even cause hole instability and various complicated hole problems when the situation is very serious. The purpose of adding filtrate reducer is formatting a low permeability, flexibility and dense filter cake to reduce the filtration loss, which could provide the stable performance of drilling fluid and the underground safety. Therefore, filtrate reducer becomes the most active research and development drilling fluid treating agent with the largest production and sales volume [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95594-ref1">1</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95594-ref2">2</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95594-ref3">3</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95594-ref4">4</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95594-ref5">5</xref>] .</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2.

Conclusions</title><p>1) When the increment in the compound brine is 0.7%, XR-X series filtrate reducer has good capacity of filter loss, when the increment is 1.5%, the anti temperature reaches 220˚C.</p><p>2) XR-X series filtrate reducer has little effect on viscidity of compound brine drilling fluid after room temperature and high temperature aging. It has to moderate effect on the rheology of drilling fluid.</p><p>3) When the increment in the brine base is 0.7%, XR-X series filtrate reducer could resist 20% NaCl. When the increment is 1.5%, under the condition of 220˚C high temperatures, it can play a very good role in filter loss.</p><p>4) Through infrared spectrum analysis, the polymer contains functional groups such as sulfonic acid, carboxyl group and amide. Therefore, the synthesis polymer owns the good performance of anti temperature, salt resistant and filtrate loss.</p><p>5) For thermogravimetric analysis, the synthesized polymer XR-X filtrate reducer can withstand 220˚C high temperature.</p><p>6) Through the practical application of the two oil wells in the field, it is proved that the XR-X fluid loss product can effectively control the water loss of 5000 m deep well drilling fluid.</p></sec><sec id="s6"><title>Fund Project</title><p>National Natural Science Foundation of China (41072109).</p></sec><sec id="s7"><title>Conflicts of Interest</title><p>The authors declare no conflicts of interest regarding the publication of this paper.</p></sec><sec id="s8"><title>Cite this paper</title><p>Zhu, Z., Long, H.Y., Tan, D.C., Wang, S., Wang, Z.W., Zhang, S.Y. and Deng, Y.
