Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of coal mine underground hydraulic fracturing permeability enhancement, and relates to a coal seam roof hydraulic fracturing permeability enhancement and extraction method for a coal roadway driving working face. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the improvement of coal mining technology and gas control technology in China, the development of coal resources in China is moving towards safe and efficient mining. Under the premise of safety, the coal production is increasing year by year, providing the most stable and reliable energy supply guarantee for various industries. However, with the increase of mining depth, the ground stress and gas pressure increase, and the permeability decreases, which brings great challenges to safe mining. Gas control is still one of the most important work in gas mines, and the quality of gas control directly affects the coal mining production. The gas control of coal roadway driving is a major problem. Since coal roadway driving is directly carried out in the coal seam, if the working face needs to be quickly arranged to ensure normal production connection of the mine and improve the economic benefit of the coal mine, the coal roadway driving speed must be improved. The gas drainage borehole of the coal roadway driving working face needs sufficient time for drainage or extraction, otherwise, gas overrun or coal and gas outburst accidents may occur during driving, causing personnel casualties. Therefore, there is a contradiction between driving speed and gas control.

[0003] At present, the method of constructing a bottom drainage roadway in the coal seam floor and using a through-hole drilling to extract gas during coal roadway driving can solve the contradiction between driving and gas control in time and space. However, this method has a huge amount of engineering, high cost, low utilization rate of gas drilling, and is not suitable for large-scale promotion. SUMMARY

[0004] Therefore, the purpose of the present application is to provide a coal seam roof hydraulic fracturing permeability enhancement and extraction method for a coal roadway driving working face, which solves the problem of contradiction between coal roadway driving speed and gas control in coal mines and the problem of large amount of engineering and high cost in current coal roadway driving gas control.

[0012] Step 3, drilling a directional long borehole in the direction of the planned coal roadway excavation in the coal seam parallel to the direction of the planned coal roadway excavation, the horizontal section of the directional long borehole in the roof is H k from the coal seam, the horizontal projection is P k from the planned coal roadway excavation, and the distance of the final hole point from the next planned drilling site is C k , H k , P k , and C k are respectively calculated as follows:

[0017] Step 4, performing staged hydraulic fracturing of the directional long borehole in the roof of the drilled site in step 3, connecting the extraction pipeline after the fracturing is completed and the water is drained to perform extraction.

[0018] Cyclically performing steps 3-4 until the fracturing of the directional long borehole in the roof of the nth drilled site is completed and the water is drained to connect the extraction pipeline to perform extraction.

[0019] Optionally, the coal roadway excavation operation is combined with the directional long borehole construction, the staged hydraulic fracturing construction, and the directional long borehole drainage operation.

[0020] Optionally, after the drilled coal roadway exceeds the design position of the planned drilling site, the planned drilling site is excavated, and after the excavation is completed, the drilling site becomes a drilled site.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0022] The coal seam roof hydraulic fracturing permeability increasing and extraction method of the coal roadway tunneling working face of the application, through the alternate arrangement of the drill field construction directional long drill hole and the hydraulic fracturing, the coal seam permeability of the coal roadway region is improved, and the extraction range of the directional long drill hole is improved. The alternate arrangement method can ensure that the fracturing range covers the planned tunneling coal roadway, and can ensure that the two drill fields are ahead in space without hole jumping, and the arrangement method of deviating from the roadway by a certain distance can prevent the direct fracturing of the roof above the coal roadway from affecting the tunneling and supporting after the roof is damaged, and avoids the alternation of tunneling and extraction and ensures that the extraction drill hole is not damaged during the tunneling process.

[0030] Please refer to Figs. 1-2 , assuming that the thickness of the coal seam h=2m, the coal seam solidity coefficient f1=1, the roof solidity coefficient f2=3, the planned excavation coal roadway length D=1500m, the length B z =9m required for the planned excavation drill field, and the monthly footage v=60m of the planned excavation coal roadway.

[0031] The n planned excavation drill fields are alternately arranged on both sides of the planned excavation coal roadway in the excavation direction, the distance between two adjacent planned excavation drill fields is S z , each planned excavation drill field is named as 1#, 2#, 3#, 4#...n# along the excavation direction of the coal roadway, and S z , n are calculated according to the following formulas respectively:

[0032]

[0033]

[0034] In the formula, v is the monthly footage of the planned excavation coal roadway, f2 is the roof solidity coefficient, D is the planned excavation coal roadway length, S z The calculation result is kept to one decimal place, and n is rounded to an integer, and through the calculation, S z =360.0m, n=4.

[0035] After starting excavation, when the coal roadway exceeds the design position of the 1# planned excavation drill field, the 1# planned excavation drill field is started to be excavated, and after the excavation is completed, the drill field becomes the 1# excavated drill field.

[0036] The roof directional long drill hole is constructed in the 1# excavated drill field parallel to the coal seam and the planned excavation coal roadway in the excavation direction, the distance between the horizontal section of the roof directional long drill hole and the coal seam is H k , the distance between the horizontal projection and the planned excavation coal roadway is P k , and the distance between the terminal hole point and the 2# planned excavation drill field is C k , H k , P k, C k The calculation is made according to the following formula respectively:

[0037]

[0038]

[0039]

[0040] In the formula, h is the thickness of the coal seam, f1 is the firmness coefficient of the coal seam, f2 is the firmness coefficient of the roof, and v is the planned daily advance of the coal roadway. The calculation result is rounded to one decimal place. After calculation, H k = 6.0 m, P k = 12.0 m, and C k = 30.0 m.

[0042] When the roof directional long hole construction, staged hydraulic fracturing construction, and roof directional long hole drainage are performed in the above 1# drilled field, the coal roadway excavation is still in parallel operation. When the coal roadway exceeds the design position of the 2# planned excavation field, the roof directional long hole is constructed in the 2# drilled field in the direction parallel to the coal seam and the planned excavation coal roadway.

[0043] After the roof directional long hole construction in the 2# drilled field is completed, the roof directional long hole in the 2# drilled field is subjected to staged hydraulic fracturing, and after the fracturing is completed and the water is drained, the extraction pipeline is connected to perform extraction.

[0044] By analogy, until the roof directional long hole fracturing in the nth drilled field is completed and the water is drained, the extraction pipeline is connected to perform extraction, and the coal seam roof hydraulic fracturing and permeability enhancement extraction of the entire coal roadway excavation working face are completed.

[0045] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limiting. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solutions, and they should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
