Problems solved by technology

Because this method uses methanol as an extractant, methanol is toxic and may cause toxicity to the environment and humans
The other is the use of CO 2 As heating agent and extractant, CO 2 to replace natural gas in gas hydrates, extract natural gas to shore, and separate CO 2 After recovering natural gas (such

Abstract

The invention relates to the recovery method and system of submarine natural gas hydrates. The method comprises: building a recovery platform of submarine natural gas hydrates; adding heating medium into the submarine heat transfer via the heat-insulating pipe to heat and melt the submarine natural gas hydrates solid for the mixture of gas and liquid, which will be lifted to the platform and separated for natural gas; attained natural gas is used as fuel of the united recycle generating system for generation, while the left as natural gas hydrates is stored in the natural gas carrying lighter which operates the storage, transportation and distribution. The system comprises: offshore platform, gas-fueled turbine, steam turbine; three-section steam heater; submarine heat transfer; methane compressor; deep well pump; submarine swash bank; and underwater controlling the movement of platform. Said invention has simple apparatus and lower cost, which can reduce the energy consumption in exploiting submarine natural gas hydrates.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for exploiting natural gas hydrate, in particular to a method for exploiting seabed natural gas hydrate and an exploiting device. Background technique [0002] Natural gas hydrate is an ice-like crystal formed by methane-based hydrocarbon gas and water. Water molecules form cage polyhedrons through hydrogen bonds, and the cages contain natural gas molecules. Gas hydrates form and exist stably under specific high-pressure and low-temperature conditions, and mainly occur in the seabed and permafrost sediments at the continental margin. A large amount of this mineral has also been found in the South my country Sea. [0003] As a clean and high-quality energy in the future, natural gas hydrate has a wide distribution and a large scale of mineral deposits (the currently recognized global resources are 20,000 trillion m 3 Natural gas, the total amount of organic carbon is 2-3 times the total carbon amount of the existing e...
