The invention relates to the technical field of
natural gas exploitation, in particular to a method for injecting a
heat storage material to
exploit hydrates in a horizontal well. The
heat storage material provides heat, during the migration process of the
heat storage material, the
linear loss of conventional thermal fluid is reduced, the intercommunication of the heat
storage material expands the heating range of a reservoir, continuous heating of reservoir mining is maintained, the
decomposition rate of the hydrates is increased, and gas is continuously and efficiently produced. The methodcomprises the following steps that S1, in a production well, the heat
storage material and ceramsite are injected together into a formation, and at the same time, in an auxiliary well, the heat
storage material is continuously injected into the formation to achieve the effect of perforation; and S2, when the production well begins to produce in a depressurizing mode, negative pressure is generatedinside a
wellbore, the heat storage material and the ceramsite originally entering the reservoir migrate and accumulate towards the direction of the
wellbore under the action of the negative pressure, during the migration process, the heat storage material is squeezed, when the pressure reaches a certain level, the internal structure of the heat storage material changes, and
heat energy is released, so that the temperature of the reservoir increases, and the
decomposition of the hydrates is accelerated.
