[0004] for CO 2 Li Xiaosen et al. published the patent "A Simulating Method and Experimental Device for Carbon Dioxide Replacement Exploitation of Natural Gas Hydrate". However, after the hydrate is formed in the method of this invention, the method of discharging excess gas is to reduce the temperature. In the temperature range of hydrate self-protection effect, some hydrates will still decompose
And this invention still can not solve CO 2 Disadvantages such as low replacement efficiency and slow replacement rate for natural gas hydrate replacement

Abstract

The invention discloses an experimental simulation device and a method for exploiting natural gas hydrate. The experimental simulation device comprises a stable pressure gas / liquid supply module, a reactor, a control module, a data measuring module and a data acquisition and processing module. The method comprises the following steps: discharging unreacted gases in an isobaric manner after the hydrate is generated, subsequently compressing the hydrate into a dense hydrate piece, introducing a CO2 gas from one side of the hydrate piece, reducing the pressure on the other side of the hydrate piece, and thus achieving combination of two natural gas hydrate exploitation methods of CO2 exchange and pressure reduction. The experimental simulation device overcomes the defects that the efficiency is low and the speed is low in natural gas hydrate exploitation in the CO2 exchange mode, overcomes the difficulty that geological disaster can be caused in natural gas hydrate exploitation in the pressure reduction mode, improves the efficacy in natural gas hydrate exploitation, and moreover is simple in structure and low in cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of natural gas hydrate exploitation, in particular to an experimental simulation device and method for exploiting natural gas hydrate. Background technique [0002] Natural gas hydrate is a kind of non-stoichiometric cage crystal hydrate, which is formed by natural gas and water under certain temperature conditions. Gas hydrates widely exist in deep seabed and permafrost areas. It is estimated that the amount of gas hydrates contained in the shallow part of the lithosphere with a global depth of less than 2000m is equivalent to twice the sum of the proven conventional fossil fuels. Therefore, the exploitation of natural gas hydrate has also attracted more and more attention. The traditional methods for exploiting natural gas hydrate mainly include pressure reduction method, heat shock method, chemical reagent method and the combination of the above methods. All of these methods destroy the equilibrium cond...
