In the construction process, it will be affected by climate, geology, natural environment and other aspects, so that it has potential safety hazards and quality problems. In recent years, the scale and quantity of water conservancy project construction in China have shown an upward trend. Only by strictly controlling each link of project construction can we effectively provide guarantee for its quality and reduce the probability of safety accidents. As far as the current situation is concerned, many construction units and construction personnel are backward in thinking, do not fully realize the importance of safety and quality control, and there are serious deficiencies in material, equipment and personnel management. There are a large number of potential safety hazards. After a safety accident, it will not only increase the cost investment of the construction unit, but also lead to casualties. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the quality control and safety management strategy in water conservancy project construction.展开更多

On the basis of previous documents and a large number of statistical data, this work comparatively analyzed the differential hydrocarbon enrichment and its major controlling factors in depressions of the Bohai Bay Basin. The results show that depressions in the Bohai Bay Basin have various hydrocarbon enrichment degrees, and can be categorized into four types, namely enormously oil-rich, oil-rich, oily and oil-poor depressions. In general, the enormously oil-rich and oil-rich depressions are distributed in the eastern part of the basin along the Tan-Lu and Lan-Liao faults, whereas depressions in the western part of the basin are poor in hydrocarbons. Moreover, the vertical distribution of hydrocarbons is also highly heterogeneous, with Pre-Paleogene strata rich in hydrocarbons in the northern and western depressions, Paleogene strata rich in hydrocarbons in the entire basin, and Neogene strata rich in hydrocarbons in the off-shore areas of the Bohai Bay Basin. From early depressions in onshore areas to the late depressions in offshore areas of the Bohai Bay Basin, the source rocks and source-reservoir-cap rock assemblages gradually become younger and shallower, and the hydrocarbon resource abundance gradually increases. Hydrocarbon supplying condition is the key factor constraining the hydrocarbon enrichment for different depressions,while the main source-reservoir-cap rock assemblage, sufficient hydrocarbons and the transportation capacity of faults control the vertical distribution of hydrocarbons. The main factors controlling hydrocarbon enrichment are different for different layers. The hydrocarbon supplying condition of source rocks is the key controlling factor, whereas the source-reservoir configuration, the main sourcereservoir-cap rock assemblages, and the fault transportation are the main factors of hydrocarbon enrichment in the Paleogene, Paleogene and Neogene, respectively.展开更多

Enhanced oil recovery methods were studied considering the development practice of Tahe oilfield. Research shows that the main controlling factors of residual oil distribution after water flooding in fracture-cavity carbonate reservoirs can be classified into four categories: local high point, insufficient well control, flow channel shielding and weak hydrodynamic. It is a systematic project to improve oil recovery in fracture-cavity carbonate reservoirs. In the stage of natural depletion, production should be well regulated to prevent bottom water channeling. In the early stage of waterflooding, injection-production relationship should be constructed according to reservoir type, connectivity and spatial location to enhance control and producing degree of waterflooding and minimize remaining oil. In the middle and late stage, according to the main controlling factors and distribution characteristics of remaining oil after water flooding, remaining oil should be tapped precisely by making use of gravity differentiation and capillary force imbibition, enhancing well control, disturbing the flow field and so on. Meanwhile, backup technologies of reservoir stimulation, new injection media, intelligent optimization etc. should be developed, smooth shift from water injection to gas injection should be ensured to maximize oil recovery.展开更多

On the basis of revealing and analyzing the coal seam as the main aquifer in western coal mine of Xiao Jihan coal mine, the simulation software of PHASE-2D was applied to analyze the water inflow under different influencing factors. The results showed that water inflow increases logarithmically with the coal seam thickness, increases as a power function with the permeability coefficient of the coal seam, and increases linearly with the coal seam burial depth and the head pressure; The evaluation model for the factors of coal seam water inrush was gained by using nonlinear regression analysis with SPSS. The mine water inrush risk evaluation partition within the scope of the mining field was obtained,through the engineering application in Xiao Jihan coal mine. To ensure the safe and efficient production of the mine, we studied the coal mine water disaster prevention and control measures of a main aquifer coal seam in aspects of roadway driving and coal seam mining.展开更多

Studying the main controlling factors and accumulation model of Chang 9 reservoir in this area can provide a basis for the production targets, and assist in formulating reasonable development technology policy. In this paper, to explore and summarize the hydrocarbon accumulation model, the Chang 9 reservoir were analyzed from the aspects of oil source, fracture, oil migration, structure, lithology and reservoir physical properties for the main controlling factors in this area. Organic geochemical and geological comprehensive analysis that the oil-source of the Chang 9 reservoir in the northwest of Ordos Basin is derived from Chang 7 hydrocarbon source rocks. The fractures provide a sound channel for the "vertical multi-point filling" of the oil source from Chang 7 to Chang 9. The crude oil migrates vertically from Chang 7 to Chang 9, then expands horizontally to form a reservoir. Structures play an important role in controlling the distribution of reservoirs, the control by sand in small layer and physical property is also obvious. This paper creatively establishes the reservoir accumulation model of Chang 9 in northwest of Ordos Basin, which is characterized by Vertical multi-point filling, horizontal expansion becomes oil pool. It reveals the genetic mechanism of the development of Chang 9 multi-reservoir in the study area, which provides guidance for exploration and evaluation deployment.展开更多

文摘The shale of the Lower Cambrian Niutitang Formation in the Guizhou region has undergone complex diagenesis and has developed different types of pore textures,which affect the occurrence status of shale.In the present study,we applied scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and an isotherm analysis of low-temperature nitrogen gas adsorption to shale core samples drawn from the Niutitang Formation in the Guizhou region to quantify the shale pore development characteristics.In addition,we conducted a shale geochemical analysis in light of the main controlling factors for pore development.The results indicate that the shale pores and fractures of the Niutitang Formation can be divided into three types:organic pores,inorganic pores,and micro fractures.The organic pores are mainly distributed in the organic matter between inorganic mineral particles,with small pore diameters,which are characterized by inkpot,elliptic,and beaded shapes.The inorganic pores are mainly composed of narrow slit intragranular pores and intergranular pores.The micro fractures develop parallel plates with four-side openings and splint plates.The pores of the shale are mainly mesopores(53%),followed by micropores and macropores,with pore diameter distributions ranging mainly from 1 to 50 nm.The specific surface area is mainly provided by nanoscale pores with average diameters of less than 4 nm.Therefore,the smaller pore makes a greater contribution to the specific surface area,while the specific surface area increases with an increase in the total pore volume.The study further indicates that organic carbon content is the most important internal factor for shale pore development,especially in terms of the control of volume and the specific surface area of micropores.Moreover,quartz content has a certain effect on shale pores;the pore volume and specific surface area increase with increasing quartz content,but the control effect is not obvious.The effect of clay minerals on shale pores is negligible.The type of organic matter is also an important factor in controlling the developmental difference of shale pores,and a high degree of thermal evolution is not conducive to organic pore development.It was therefore concluded that intergranular pores and microfractures,mainly mesopores,are the main reservoir space and migration channels of Niutitang shale in the study area.The organic carbon content,mineral components,organic matter type,and degree of thermal evolution jointly control the development of shale pores,among which the organic carbon content is the most important influencing factor.

文摘Over the past decade,great progresses have been made in natural gas exploration in the Sichuan Basin,where several large gas fields(such as Anyue)have been discovered.With the increase of data and the deepening of exploration,new knowledges have been gained in geological theory,thus it is necessary to further analyze the distribution characteristics and main controlling factors of large gas fields,thus to put forward new exploration directions for large gas fields.Therefore,based on the statistics on the geological parameters of 20 large gas fields discovered in this basin,the distribution rules,formation conditions and main controlling factors of large gas fields were analyzed,and the follow-up exploration directions were proposed.The following results were achieved.(1)Large gas fields are developed in different tectonic regions in the Sichuan Basin,mostly in the low and gentle tectonic belts in the central Sichuan Basin.Large gas fields are developed in seven series of strata in longitudinal stratigraphic sequences,which are dominated by the reef-shoal large gas fields formed in the Upper Permian ChangxingeLower Triassic Feixianguan Fms.(2)There are four sets of source rocks contributing to the formation of large gas fields,mostly from the assemblage of Xujiahe Fm source rocks.(3)Reservoirs in the large gas fields are dominated by porous carbonates and tight sandstones;large gas fields are mostly structuralelithological ones and normal pressure ones.(4)The development of marine large gas fields are mainly controlled by intracratonic rifts and paleo-uplifts.The controlling effect of intracratonic rifts is mainly from three aspects,namely the hydrocarbon generation center of source rocks,high-energy facies belts on the platform edges,and lateral sealing for hydrocarbon accumulation.The controlling effect of the paleo-uplifts mainly acts from another three aspects:intra-platform high-energy facies belts,karstic dolomite reservoirs and long-term hydrocarbon accumulation.The structures of foreland basins controlled the development of the continental large gas fields from four aspects:tectonic setting,source and reservoir assemblage,trap type and fracture distribution.In conclusion,a total of 5 domains with 14 favorable zones are the follow-up exploration directions of large gas fields in the Sichuan Basin.
