Description:
[0001]    The present invention relates to novel compounds of polyfunctionalized polyethylene and polypropylene glycols, their synthesis and their use, in particular as tracers in applications related to oil and gas production, and especially as specific markers of various target fluids. 
         [0002]    U.S. Pat. No. 6,545,769 B2 (WO 0181914) discloses a method for monitoring hydrocarbon and water production from different production zones/sections in a hydrocarbon reservoir by placing specific tracers in different zones/section of a reservoir. The tracers are detected downstream as they are produced from the well as indication of specific events in the reservoir. The tracers may be perfluorinated hydrocarbons, oligonucleotides with special functional groups, fluorescent, phosphorescent, magnetic particles or fluids, colored particles, DNA or microorganisms. 
         [0003]    US 2010/0006750 A1 discloses a tracer system comprising a tracer compound for a fluid system containing one or more poyether alcohol compounds. The one or more polyether alcohol compound is truly monodisperse (have unique molecular weights) and comprises one or more functional groups (which will modify its solubility properties as required for the purpose). These compounds are linear polyether alcohols with different end groups attached to the PEG or PPG main chain. In order to be used as tracers, and low detection limits, the main chain of PEG or PPG should constitute of at least 4 glycol units and preferable 6 glycol units. 
         [0004]    There is a further need for compounds as tracers in many areas. Examples are tracing of downstream effluents from oil and gas reservoirs, industrial and other discharges, leak detection, pollution studies, natural waterflow analysis, sewer and stormwater drainage analysis, in vivo tracing of body fluids during medication and diagnostic methods, tracing of food, animal feed and industrial products to trace their origin and others. 
         [0005]    The compounds of the present application have not been described in nor indicated as tracers or otherwise synthesized in the prior art. 
         [0006]    The present invention has surprisingly revealed the possibility to use truly monosized PEG and PPG derivatives of chain lengths down to two, which is cheap and commercial available, coupled to a core unit and in that way enhance the response, enhance separation and signal/detection, in e.g. LC/MS analytical setups, and hence give rise to monitor these compounds in very low concentrations e.g. ppb-ppq-levels. Even better (lower) detection limits may be obtained when compounds described in the present invention are analyzed when positive or negative ions are formed with the compounds through adducts and the adducts analyzed using e.g. LC/MS techniques. In this way two separate di-ethylene glycol derivatives attached to a core unit may exhibit the same low detection limit as for derivatives described in US 2010/0006750 A1, and in this way a totally new class of molecules can be used as chemical tracers. 
         [0007]    The subject matter of the present invention are PEG or PPG based molecules constitute of a core unit with 2-4 monosized PEG or PPG based derivatives attached to the this core unit. The new compounds described in the present invention could either be linear, “V” or “star-shaped” and have various conformations in space. These compounds can further, in a post modification step or during the initial synthesis, be functionalized to modify its physical, chemical and analytical properties like for instance its solubility, surface adherence properties, bioavailability and detectability. In this way the tracers can be tailored for a number of different applications while maintaining their basic general structural backbone. 
         [0008]    The possibility for use of molecules with a relative large molecular weight, combined with use of variable core units having various possible interchangeable substituents, implies that a large number of possible unique tracers with distinct molecular weights and properties can be synthesized and used for different applications. Depending on their specific structure, the molecules can be made quite stable and able to survive harsh and variable conditions like high temperature, high pressure, and large variations in pH and brine environments often found in oil and gas reservoirs. The good stability of tracers are also very important in order not to degrade due to different completion fluids and chemicals added during the production phase. The good stability of the compounds also means that they can be detected for a long time. Functionalization of the described derivatives expands the possibility of detection using available analytical tools like mass spectrometry (coupled with GC/HPLC etc), colorimetric, fluorescence radiation etc. 
         [0009]    Use of short PEG units or PPG units or a combination of these derivatives connected to proper defined core units, makes it possible to generate a large number of unique molecules e.g. as tracer, having the same high analytical LC/MS response as long PEG units or PPG units, and hence extending the total number of suitable tracer candidates. 
         [0010]    It is also surprisingly observed that the analytical response may be additionally increased for aromatic core units with substituents in ortho position to each other. By placing the substituents in -ortho, -meta, -para or having other special geometry, the degree of mono, di or multivalent ions generated in the MS is altered and hence there is possible to tailor the best response for a given molecule to achieve specific identification and low limit of detection. 
         [0011]    The invention also makes use of the similarity of reaction steps for the different molecules, enabling an easy optimization of the reaction pathways for generating a large number of unique molecules, and the compounds may be produced in high yields and high purity. 
         [0012]    By introducing various combinations of parts of the molecule and or introduction of bulky segments (chemical groups/moieties) the leak-out can be controlled to obtain the optimal release for various set of conditions. 
         [0013]    This new design for generating oil and water soluble compounds also minimize the possibility to generate “homolog” molecules that differs in molecular weight by a factor of 44 (one PEG unit) or 58 (one PPG unit), and were the “homologs” are introduced either by impurities in the monosized PEG and PPG derivatives used in the synthesis, or by degradation of reagents and intermediates during synthesis. The possibility of coupling two identical homologs, present as impurities in reagents, onto the same core compound are very minor and results in very low, often neglectable concentrations (less than 1%), hence very low concentration of each of the other unique compounds are obtained as impurities in the synthesis. 
         [0014]    The prior art discloses use of linear monosized polyethers generating a linear chain backbone with different end groups. When synthesizing these types of compounds, the presence of “homolog” reagents will give rice to the corresponding “homologue” final product in a concentration equal to the impurities. The use of core units, substituents and reaction pathways as described in the present invention, eliminates this disadvantage and hence are more versatile for generating large number of unique molecules of high purity and very good (low) detection limits. The combination of the various parts of the compound contributes to the properties needed to obtain suitable functionality for the various tracer applications. 
         [0015]    Control of adsorption of both water and oil soluble compounds to e.g. formation or other parts present in a well together with very low limit of detection, makes these compounds especially suitable for permanent inflow monitoring in hydrocarbon producers. The stability of the compounds makes it possible to detect the compounds for years and decades after their injection or location (placement). 
         [0016]    For use as unique chemical tracers, and in cases where the “homologue” tracer is deliberately used as one of several unique tracers in a wellbore, it is not preferable to have such same “homologues” in higher concentrations than 1%, originating from impurities and not from release of the real installed tracer. 
         [0017]    For marking of fluids for permanent inflow monitoring, the combination of two or more compounds with tailored properties, either similar or different, could be implemented in a solid or degradable material, such as a polymer, ceramic, sand, shale, or onto completion equipment, tools or pipe and constitute a release system. The tracer system could also consist of other additives in combination with various compounds disclosed in the invention. 
         [0018]    The compounds disclosed in the invention is also especially suitable for use related to oil production due to the method of detection related to extraction from well fluids and detection in level of ppb-ppq. 
         [0019]    The compounds disclosed in the invention is also is also especially suitable for use as markers of fluids in combination with well and reservoir flow models and simulators for interpretation of inflow due to their large number of unique compounds combined with their comparable properties in the application and low level of detection.

         [0053]    Hydrogenation 
         [0054]    To a 10% solution of the oil soluble intermediate in methanol in an argon-flushed flask, about 5% (based on oil soluble intermediate mass) of 10% Pd(C) is added. The flask is flushed with hydrogen, and the mixture is stirred vigorously overnight. It is then filtered through a plug of celite and then concentrated in vacuo to give the diol in almost quantitative yield.

         [0056]    The diol is dissolved in DMSO, and 2.4 eq. KOtBu is added. The mixture is then heated to 40 C under vacuum for 2 h in order to evaporate the tBuOH formed. After cooling to room temperature, 2.4 eq. 1,3-propanesultone in some DMSO is added. The mixture is then stirred at 60 C overnight before the DMSO is removed in vacuo (ca. 12 mbar/90 C). The residue is dissolved in a minimal amount of methanol, and the product is precipitated by addition of 5 vol acetone. The product is isolated by centrifugation, washed with some acetone, and then dried in vacuo. Yields vary depending on product structure, and amount of DMSO and methanol present during precipitation. By concentrating the mother-liquor and repeating the precipitation, a second crop may be obtained, resulting in acceptable yield of the RGTW. 
         [0057]    Alternative Sulton Reaction 
         [0058]    A solution of the diol (3.0 g, 6.5 mmol, 1 equiv.) and 1,3-propanesultone (2.17 g, 17.8 mmol, 2.7 equiv.) in THF (6 mL) was warmed to 60° C. and added a solution of KOtBu (2.01 g, 17.9 mmol, 2.7 equiv.) in THF (14 mL) over 15 min. Additional THF (10 mL) was added to help stirring. The resulting suspension was cooled to rt and stirred over night. 
         [0059]    THF was removed under vacuum after 20 h at rt. The resulting solid was dissolved in minimal amounts of MeOH (150 mL) under reflux. The solution was poured into acetone (450 mL) to result in a cloudy mass not possible to isolate by filtration. The solvent was removed under vacuum, and the resulting solid was analyzed by HPLC. Any type of sultone may be used as reagent for introducing e.g. sulfonic acid functionality and useful properties such as steric effects. 
         [0060]    General Procedure of Ester Compounds 
         [0061]    Synthesis of ester based compounds through reactions of alcohols and acid chlorides is shown below. The detail description is for synthesis of tris(1-phenyl-2,5,8,11-tetraoxatridecan-13-yl) benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate. However the same general procedure, adjusted only with respect to stoichiometry, can be used to synthesize similar mono, di or tetra substituted aromatic esters from corresponding acid chlorides or di-esters of non-aromatic acid chlorides.
