Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of underground salt cavern construction process, and more specifically, to a single-chamber salt cavern sediment discharge simulation device and sediment discharge method. Background Technology
[0002] Salt cavern gas storage facilities are typically built upon layered salt formations with high insoluble content. During construction, as the salt rock dissolves, the insoluble matter within the salt layers and interlayers is released, settling as small particles and lumps at the bottom of the cavity, forming sediment. After the dissolution process, the gas storage facility uses a gas injection and brine drainage method to remove the brine from the top of the sediment, allowing the sediment space to be used for gas storage. Statistics show that the sediment volume accounts for an average of 46.8% of the total cavity volume, indicating that nearly half of the space within the salt cavity is occupied by sediment and the filling brine. The brine in the sediment space also causes the natural gas stored in the gas storage facility to contain water. If this water cannot be effectively drained, it will corrode the salt cavern gas storage equipment and pipelines, and also affect the gas demand of natural gas users.
[0003] Under current technological conditions, it is difficult to remove sediment from the bottom of the cavity, which reduces the utilization rate of the cavity and increases the engineering investment cost. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The gas source, pressure gauge, and gas flow meter are connected in sequence. The gas flow meter is connected to the transparent visualization cavity. The pressure gauge, back pressure valve, and pressurizing pump are connected to the transparent visualization cavity.

[0007] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: the salt cavern single-chamber sediment discharge simulation device provided in this application can realistically simulate the actual environment of the actual underground cavity, including the pressure and gas flow rate in the actual underground cavity. Therefore, based on this device, the bottom sediment after dissolution of the actual cavity can be obtained and accurate sediment discharge can be performed, thereby improving the utilization rate of the actual underground cavity and reducing engineering investment costs.

[0011] Secondly, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention also provides a method for sludge desalination using a salt cavern single-chamber sludge desalination simulation device as described in the first aspect, the method comprising:
[0012] The product to be processed is placed into the transparent visualization cavity, and the product to be processed includes brine and sediment.
[0013] The salt cavern single-chamber sediment discharge simulation device was used to simulate the real environment inside the salt cavern cavity, and the saturated sediment density and brine density of the sediment under the simulated real environment were obtained.
[0014] Based on the measured saturated sediment density and the brine density, the stress borne by the sediment in the transparent visualization cavity is determined.
[0015] The product to be treated is subjected to hydraulic fracturing using the stress, so that the brine is discharged from the transparent and visible cavity into the measuring cylinder, resulting in crushed sediment.

Based on this device, the bottom sediment after dissolution of the actual cavity can be obtained and the sediment discharge can be accurately carried out, thereby improving the utilization rate of the actual underground cavity and reducing the engineering investment cost.
[0032] The following specific embodiments further illustrate the solution of the present invention. In this embodiment, a single-chamber sludge discharge simulation device for salt caverns is provided, including a gas source 1, a pressure gauge 2, a gas flow meter 3, a transparent visualization cavity 4, a pressure gauge 5, a pressurizing pump 6, a back pressure valve 7, a liquid flow meter 8, and a measuring cylinder 9.
[0033] The gas source 1, pressure gauge 2 and gas flow meter 3 are connected in sequence. The gas flow meter 3 is connected to the transparent visualization cavity 4. The pressure gauge 5, back pressure valve 7 and pressurizing pump 6 are respectively connected to the transparent visualization cavity 4. The back pressure valve 7, liquid flow meter 8 and measuring cylinder 9 are connected in sequence. The transparent visualization cavity 4 is a sealed cavity.
[0034] Among them, the transparent visualization cavity 4 is an openable cavity. When opened, the product to be processed is placed into the cavity, and when closed, it forms a sealed cavity.
[0035] Optionally, the transparent visualization cavity 4 can be a brine discharge cavity with a geometrically similar design based on the actual size and dimensions of the underground cavity.
[0036] As an example, see Figure 2 The diagram shows the structure of the transparent visualization cavity 4. The transparent visualization cavity 4 (also called a container) has an inner radius of 75mm, an inner height of 300mm, and can withstand a maximum pressure of 1.5Mpa.
[0037] Optionally, the above-mentioned transparent visualization cavity 4 is made of a transparent visualization pressure-resistant material, and the transparent visualization cavity 4 is used as a simulation cavity for the brine discharge experiment.
[0038] Optionally, the gas source 1, pressure gauge 2, gas flow meter 3, transparent visualization cavity 4, pressure gauge 5 and pressurization pump 6 are connected by pressure-resistant stainless steel pipelines.
[0039] Optionally, the back pressure valve 7, the liquid flow meter 8, and the measuring cylinder 9 are connected by a transparent flexible tube.
[0040] The functions of the above-mentioned devices are:
[0041] Gas source 1: can be an air compressor / compressed gas cylinder, which can provide gas at 5-10 MPa, and thus provide air to the transparent and visible cavity 4;
[0042] Pressure gauge 2: It can be a multi-stage pressure gauge, which can accurately adjust the pressure from 0 to 1 MPa with an error of ±0.01 MPa;
[0043] Connection lines: can be pressure-resistant stainless steel lines, capable of withstanding a minimum pressure of 10MPa;
[0044] Pressure gauge 5: Range 0~2.5MPa, used to measure the pressure borne by various components;
[0045] Pressure pump 6: can pressurize the liquid inside the transparent and visible cavity 4 (can apply fine pressure and display readings);
[0046] Gas-liquid flow meters (gas flow meter 3 and liquid flow meter 8): capable of passing through both gas and liquid fluids, and accurately measuring the flow rate of at least one of the fluids;
[0047] Transparent flexible tube: allows you to clearly see the liquid flow;
[0048] Back pressure valve 7: can control the pressure at the outlet of the brine to simulate actual working conditions;
[0049] The aforementioned device can accurately simulate the real environment of an actual underground cavity. This includes adjusting the gas flow rate within the transparent, visual cavity 4 using gas source 1 and gas flow meter 3, and adjusting the gas pressure within the transparent, visual cavity 4 using pressure gauges 5 and pressure divider gauges 2. The device features a modular design, with some components connected by pressure-resistant stainless steel pipelines. Each component can be replaced with different specifications according to experimental needs. Statistical data can be recorded using video equipment such as mobile phones or cameras, eliminating the need for computer data entry, thus reducing experimental costs and ensuring the accuracy and versatility of the experiment.
[0050] Based on the above-mentioned single-chamber salt cavern sedimentation and brine discharge simulation device, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 and Figure 4 This solution also provides a method for removing brine from sediment, including the following steps:
[0051] S10, the product to be processed is placed into the transparent visualization cavity 4, the product to be processed includes brine and sediment;
[0052] The product to be processed is obtained by simulating a real mixture in an actual underground cavity, which includes brine and sediment.
[0053] Optionally, the product to be processed is determined in the following way:
[0054] At least one original rock sample taken from a stratum is repeatedly soaked in fresh water (for about a month) until the soluble components in the original rock sample are completely dissolved, thus obtaining the product to be processed.
[0055] S20, the salt cavern single-chamber sediment discharge simulation device is used to simulate the real environment inside the salt cavern cavity, and the saturated sediment density and brine density of the sediment under the simulated real environment are obtained.
[0056] Among them, the measurement of saturated sediment density and brine density refers to the density of sediment and brine respectively located in the transparent and visualized cavity 4 under the simulated real environment.
[0057] S30, based on the measured saturated sediment density and the brine density, determine the stress borne by the sediment in the transparent visualization cavity 4;
[0058] Alternatively, one implementation of S30 above is as follows:
[0059] Based on Terzaghi's effective stress principle, the saturated sediment density, and the brine density, the stress σ (also known as effective self-weight stress) borne by the sediment in the transparent visualization cavity 4 is determined as follows:
[0060] σ=(ρ s -ρ b )gH
[0061] Where, ρ s To measure the density of saturated sediment, kg / m³ 3 The laboratory measurement value is 2135 kg / m³. 3 ;ρ b The density of the brine is taken as 1200 kg / m³. 3 g is the acceleration due to gravity, taken as 9.8 m / s². 2 .
[0062] S40, the stress is used to hydraulically fracturing the product to be treated so that the brine is discharged from the transparent and visible cavity 4 into the measuring cylinder 9 to obtain the crushed sediment.
[0063] Specifically, a pressure corresponding to the stress can be applied to the product to be treated by a pressure pump 6, so that the brine is discharged from the transparent visualization cavity 4 into the measuring cylinder 9. The discharged brine can also be measured by a liquid flow meter 8 and the measuring cylinder 9.
[0064] Optionally, the method further includes:
[0065] For each stratum, obtain the volume ratio between the first volume of the original rock sample corresponding to that stratum and the second volume of the sediment corresponding to that original rock sample;
[0066] For each formation, the corresponding volumetric residue rate is determined based on the corresponding volume ratio.
[0067] Furthermore, the method also includes:
[0068] The volume of the transparent visualization cavity is taken as a first proportion (e.g., 40%) of the volume of the sediment.
[0069] Based on the volumetric residue ratio corresponding to each formation, residue is added to fill the transparent visualization cavity, thereby simulating the actual cavity conditions of the formation as closely as possible.
[0070] Further, the step of filling the transparent visualization cavity with residue according to the volumetric residue ratio corresponding to each of the formations includes:
[0071] Based on the volumetric residue rate corresponding to each of the strata, and in accordance with the volumetric residue rate and the stratigraphic sequence of each of the strata, residue is added to fill the transparent visualization cavity.
[0072] Furthermore, after drying a portion of the sediment from the original rock sample, particle size analysis (i.e., analyzing the size of sediment particles) can be performed using sieving to obtain the non-uniformity coefficient and curvature coefficient of the sediment. Another portion is filled into a sand-filling pipe and saturated with brine after vacuuming, and then subjected to water phase permeability testing (i.e., sediment vertical rhythm) and gas-water two-phase permeability testing (i.e., gas-water phase permeability experiment). The obtained data are used to plot the relationship between the gas-water two-phase permeability curve and water saturation according to Darcy's flow formula, in order to explore the law of change in the total amount of brine discharged and the gas-water interface during the brine discharge process.
[0073] The coefficient of non-uniformity (Cu) is an important engineering parameter reflecting the uniformity of particle size distribution in sludge particles. It is defined as the ratio of the limiting particle size (d60) to the effective particle size (d10). d60 represents the particle size that accounts for 60% of the sieve weight on the cumulative particle size curve, while d10 represents the particle size that accounts for 10% of the sieve weight.
[0074] The inhomogeneity coefficient quantifies the width of particle size distribution, thus helping engineers assess the engineering properties of particle aggregates. For sediment, the magnitude of the inhomogeneity coefficient reflects the uniformity of its particle size distribution and has a significant impact on the physical and mechanical properties and engineering applications of the sediment.
[0075] The formula for calculating the non-uniformity coefficient is: Cu = d60 / d10. Here, d60 and d10 are obtained through particle size analysis experiments, which typically include sieving and sedimentation methods. Sieving involves using a series of sieves with different apertures to separate the sediment, thus obtaining a particle mass distribution across different size ranges. Sedimentation utilizes the different settling velocities of particles in a liquid to separate particles of different sizes.
[0076] Relationship between the coefficient of non-uniformity and the properties of sediment:
[0077] Uniformity assessment: The smaller the non-uniformity coefficient, the more uniform the particle size distribution of the sediment; conversely, the larger the non-uniformity coefficient, the more non-uniform the particle size distribution.
[0078] Engineering Applications: In engineering applications of sediment, such as as building materials or fillers, it is necessary to understand the uniformity of its particle size distribution. The coefficient of uniformity can serve as an important indicator for evaluating its suitability. For example, in sandy soil, a large coefficient of uniformity may lead to piping under external forces, thus affecting soil stability. Similarly, for sediment, the impact of its coefficient of uniformity on stability and engineering applications needs to be considered.
[0079] The coefficient of curvature (Cc) is an important parameter with wide applications in various fields. It describes the curvature of a curve or surface and can also reflect the continuity of the slope of the cumulative particle size distribution curve of sediment particles. In geometry, the coefficient of curvature quantitatively expresses the degree to which a curve deviates from a straight line at a certain point; in the particle size analysis of sediment particles, it reflects the continuity of the slope of the cumulative particle size distribution curve.
[0080] In particle size analysis, the formula for calculating the curvature coefficient is: Cc=(d30 ^2) / (d60 × d10). Here, d10, d30, and d60 represent the particle size values at which the mass of the sediment less than this particle size accounts for 10%, 30%, and 60% of the total sediment mass respectively, and are also known as the effective particle size, intermediate particle size, and control particle size.
[0081] When Cc > 3, it usually indicates that the cumulative curve of particle size distribution is discontinuous, the particle size distribution of the sediment may be incomplete, and there are obvious particle size discontinuities or missing values.
[0082] When 1 < Cc ≤ 3, it indicates that the particle size distribution of the sediment is relatively complete and the curve slope is continuous, which is an ideal particle size grading state.
[0083] When Cc ≤ 1, although this situation is relatively rare in nature, if it occurs, it may mean that the particle size distribution is very concentrated and the curve is close to a straight line.
[0084] Through the brine drainage simulation experiment, sediment particle size analysis, sediment vertical rhythm analysis, and gas-water relative permeability experiment, the brine drainage pressure and time, gas channeling pressure and range, and the gas-water relative permeability law before and after gas channeling can be obtained correspondingly. Further, based on the above analysis results, the influence laws of brine drainage pressure and time on absolute permeability and gas-water relative permeability curve can be clarified, and the main controlling factors can be analyzed and the optimal brine drainage plan can be carried out to optimize the bottom well gas injection and brine drainage technology.
[0085] Among them, the sediment vertical rhythm usually refers to the regular change characteristics of the clastic particle size in the vertical direction (i.e., from top to bottom or from bottom to top) in sediments or sedimentary rocks. The existence of this rhythm is closely related to factors such as the strength of hydrodynamic force, sedimentary environment, and sedimentation mode.
[0086] Based on the sediment vertical rhythm, the influence on the reservoir can be further obtained
[0087] 1. Permeability distribution: The rhythmic distribution of particle size directly affects the vertical distribution law of reservoir permeability. In the positive rhythm, with the increase of depth, the permeability and porosity increase; while in the reverse rhythm, with the increase of depth, the permeability and porosity decrease.
[0088] 2. Water flooding development effect: The existence of rhythm will also affect the swept thickness and swept area during water flooding development. For example, in a positive rhythm reservoir, bottom water flooding is easily formed during the water injection development process, and the top becomes the remaining oil enrichment area; while in a reverse rhythm reservoir, top water flooding may occur.
[0089] To better illustrate and understand the principle of the method provided by this invention, the following description uses an optional specific embodiment to illustrate the solution of this invention. It should be noted that the specific implementation of each step in this specific embodiment should not be construed as a limitation of the solution of this invention. Other implementations that can be conceived by those skilled in the art based on the principle of the solution provided by this invention should also be considered within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0090] In this embodiment, a simulated underground salt cavern chamber with a height of 90 meters and a diameter of 30 meters is used as the research object. Rock samples within a 90-meter height are selected at equal intervals and subjected to repeated freshwater dissolution treatment. The resulting residue is then subjected to hydraulic fracturing under simulated formation pressure to obtain the sediment required for the experiment. The experimental chamber is then filled to 40% capacity according to the residue filtration ratio and layer sequence of each sample. The experimental brine is saturated brine after soaking the rock samples. Gas is introduced into the chamber after partial pressure reduction. Once the chamber pressure stabilizes, the sediment and brine can be discharged by controlling the injected gas flow rate and maintaining a constant chamber pressure. An external imaging device can observe and record the gas-water interface and flow rate count throughout the process.
[0091] The embodiments of the present invention are convenient to be carried out in the laboratory, without site and environmental limitations, and can scientifically simulate the brine discharge situation in a single-cavity underground salt cavern.
[0092] The solution of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0093] (1) This invention proposes a physical experimental simulation method for studying the process of sludge discharge from underground salt cavern gas storage. By designing a discharge cavity with a geometrically similar shape according to the actual size and dimensions of the underground cavity, and by taking a core sample from the well obtained in the field and conducting a freshwater dissolution experiment at a proportional height and then performing hydraulic fracturing, the bottom sludge after dissolution of the actual cavity is obtained. Sludge is placed in the simulated cavity according to the height and sludge ratio of each rock sample layer to simulate the stratum accumulation of sludge inside the salt cavern cavity as much as possible.
[0094] (2) Study on the gas-water phase permeation mechanism and characteristics of the bottom well gas injection and brine discharge process. Combining the geological characteristics after salt rock dissolution and the sedimentation rhythm, the bottom well gas injection and brine discharge process was simulated in the laboratory. Different variable factors were set to obtain water saturation characteristics, and a data model of water production, gas production and gas-water phase permeation characteristics was established.
[0095] (3) Improve the gas channeling prevention and control process measures during the brine discharge process, clarify the influence of brine discharge pressure and brine discharge time on absolute permeability and gas-water phase permeability curve, determine the main controlling factors affecting brine discharge from the sediment layer, and form a reasonable production system suitable for bottom well gas injection and brine discharge.
