BACKGROUND
[0002] Natural gas hydrate, as a kind of unconventional oil and gas reservoir with huge reserves, has become a kind of new energy with great potential. The decomposition law of the exploitation process of hydrate deposits, the deformation of the deposits and the gas content are not clear, and the first step of natural gas hydrate exploitation needs to know the gas content of the reservoir, the decomposition law and the deformation of the reservoir during the seabed decomposition process to real-time characterize the exploitation process and optimize the exploitation scheme.
[0003] Due to the great difficulty and high cost of offshore natural gas hydrate coring, it is difficult to transfer the faithful core sample to the onshore laboratory, and the cycle is long, which leads to the distortion of hydrate. It is very important to quickly evaluate the productivity of hydrate reservoirs on the ship. The existing device mainly simulates the productivity evaluation of hydrate core in the onshore laboratory. The difference between the simulated core properties and the actual hydrate core is large, and the real decomposition law cannot be reflected. Foreign technology blockade affects the progress of hydrate exploitation in China, and China still does not have a device for on-site natural gas hydrate core productivity evaluation on the ship, which seriously affects the exploitation process of hydrate reservoirs.
[0004] A non-in-situ core gas and liquid production measuring device (CN216560578U) can measure the gas and water production of hydrate decomposition under different temperature and pressure conditions. A triaxial experimental device (CN110441153A) can detect the deformation of the hydrate core and test the saturation of the core through an acoustic testing device. Most of the current devices are for testing the gas and water production, deformation and saturation of non-in-situ hydrate cores. The difference between the properties of non-in-situ core and in-situ core is large, and the real decomposition law cannot be reflected. SUMMARY
