Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of underground water-sealed caverns, and particularly to a backfilling and anti-seepage method for the surrounding rock floor of a water curtain roadway in an underground water-sealed cavern. Background Art

[0002] The water curtain system is one of the basic safety measures for artificially replenishing water to the surrounding rock of an underground cavern group to ensure the stable and reliable groundwater water-sealing condition of an underground water-sealed cavern. It mainly consists of a water curtain roadway and long horizontal parallel and densely arranged water curtain holes provided on the side walls of the water curtain roadway and extending into the surrounding rock. All roadways and water curtain holes are arranged in parallel at a certain elevation position directly above the cavern group of the storage medium (such as crude oil or liquefied petroleum gas, etc.), and cover the lower cavern group. When the groundwater of the site needs to be replenished, during the construction stage, the water curtain roadway serves as a construction operation roadway, and the water supply in the water curtain holes is provided by a temporary water supply pipeline. After the construction is completed and the lower caverns are sealed, the water supply pipeline is removed, and water is directly supplied into the water curtain roadway, and the surrounding rock of the underground cavern group is replenished with water through the water curtain holes on the side walls of the roadway.

[0003] Due to the development of water-conducting fissure structures of varying degrees in natural surrounding rock, water seepage will occur in the caverns of the storage medium along some fissure structures. Among them, a considerable part of the fissure structures communicate to the lower storage medium caverns along the bottom plate of the water curtain roadway. However, since the water curtain roadway is not filled with water during the construction period, these water-conducting fissure structures are not discovered in time in the lower storage medium caverns, thus becoming a blind spot for grouting and water plugging of the surrounding rock in the storage medium caverns. With the sealing of the storage medium caverns, the entire water curtain roadway starts to store water, and seepage will occur in some undiscovered water-conducting fissure structures that communicate to the storage medium caverns at the bottom plate of the roadway, resulting in an increase in the amount of water seepage in the storage medium caverns. At this time, personnel can no longer enter the storage medium caverns for leak detection and water plugging operations, and this situation is common in existing projects. To solve this problem, currently in engineering, a simple comprehensive hydraulic test is carried out in the water curtain roadway before the storage medium caverns are sealed, that is, the roadway is partially filled with water (usually about 1 m high), and it is judged whether there are significant water seepage at which parts of the surrounding rock of the lower storage medium cavern corresponding to the bottom plate of the roadway, so as to determine whether there are water-conducting fissure structures at the bottom plate of the roadway. If it is confirmed that there are water-conducting fissure structures, grouting and water plugging treatment are required.

[0004] There are currently two conventional methods for grouting water control. One is to conduct post-grouting on the water outlet area in the storage medium chamber. The disadvantage of this method is that: due to the relatively high clearance of the storage medium chamber and the water outlet area often being concentrated in the upper half of the chamber, high-altitude grouting operations are required. High-altitude operations not only pose greater safety risks but also are difficult to control the grouting pressure. Because too high a pressure will cause the surrounding rock to be unstable, and too low a pressure will not achieve good results. Especially since the surface of the surrounding rock inside the chamber is generally treated with shotcrete, the shotcrete layer coverage makes it impossible to accurately find the specific location and occurrence of the water-conducting fissure structure, often resulting in a blind grouting state. The other method is to directly conduct post-grouting after finding the area of the water-conducting fissure structure on the bottom plate of the water curtain roadway. The disadvantages of this method are: one is that it is necessary to fully drain the water stored in the water curtain roadway to create a working space, so such water storage - drainage - re-water storage is time-consuming, laborious, and costly; the other is that in the area where the water-conducting fissure structure develops on the bottom plate, the rock mass is often relatively broken and the connectivity of the surrounding rock fissures is strong, and grouting is prone to slurry leakage and channeling, especially affecting the grouting effect.

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a backfill and anti-seepage method for the surrounding rock bottom plate of the water curtain roadway in an underground water-sealed storage cavern, which solves the problems of time-consuming, laborious, and costly anti-seepage engineering for the bottom plate of the water curtain roadway in an underground water-sealed storage cavern.
