Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of geological storage of carbon dioxide, and in particular to a method, device, medium and equipment for expanding the storage space of carbon dioxide in an offshore depleted gas field. Background Art

[0002] Carbon dioxide geological storage is the most effective technical option for reducing greenhouse gas emissions on a large scale. Offshore carbon dioxide geological storage is an important measure to deal with greenhouse gas emissions in eastern China. At present, more than 17 offshore gas fields have been put into production in my country, with an annual oil and gas production of about 2900×10 4 Tons of oil equivalent, some gas fields have been in production for more than 20 years, or even 30 years, and their development and production have entered the late stage and are facing depletion. Offshore depleted gas fields have good sealing properties, and the geological environment is suitable for carbon dioxide storage. At the same time, offshore depleted gas fields have accumulated rich geological data in the long-term exploration and development process, which has laid a strong data foundation for carbon dioxide storage research and application. In addition, some of the original production facilities, such as onshore terminals, submarine pipelines, wellhead platforms and wellbores, can be used to store, transport and inject carbon dioxide, greatly reducing storage costs. Therefore, offshore depleted gas fields are an important place for future offshore carbon dioxide geological storage.

[0003] The unique geological environment and engineering conditions of offshore depleted gas fields bring new opportunities as well as new challenges, mainly reflected in the small space for carbon dioxide storage. Generally speaking, offshore depleted gas fields consist of three parts: the overlying saline water layer, the depleted natural gas layer and the underlying saline water layer. The pore pressure coefficient of the depleted natural gas layer after long-term development is small (for example, the pressure coefficient of a depleted natural gas layer in the East China Sea is about 0.3), while the pore pressure coefficients of the overlying saline water layer and the underlying saline water layer are about 1, which makes the average pore pressure difference between the depleted natural gas layer and the overlying saline water layer, and the depleted natural gas layer and the underlying saline water layer large. If the overlying saline water layer, the depleted natural gas layer and the underlying saline water layer are used at the same time, the average pore pressure difference between the depleted natural gas layer and the overlying saline water layer, and the depleted natural gas layer and the underlying saline water layer may continue to increase, causing the cap rock to be damaged, thereby leading to carbon dioxide leakage. Therefore, the existing offshore depleted gas field carbon dioxide storage projects only use the depleted natural gas layer for carbon dioxide storage, and have not yet used the overlying saline aquifer and underlying saline aquifer, resulting in a small carbon dioxide storage space. At present, the storage of carbon dioxide in offshore depleted gas fields at home and abroad is still in its infancy, and there are few public reports on the expansion of carbon dioxide storage space.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method to expand the carbon dioxide storage space in offshore depleted gas fields to increase the carbon dioxide storage capacity and economic benefits of the project. Summary of the invention
