This paper discusses identification methods and the data credibility evaluation method for formation water in oil and gas fields of petroliferous basins within China. The results of the study show that: (1) the identification methods of formation water include the basic methods of single factors such as physical characteristics, water composition characteristics, water type characteristics, and characteristic coefficients, as well as the comprehensive evaluation method of data credibility proposed on this basis, which mainly relies on the correlation analysis sodium chloride coefficient and desulfurization coefficient and combines geological background evaluation;(2) The basic identifying methods for formation water enable the preliminary identification of hydrochemical data and the preliminary screening of data on site, the proposed comprehensive method realizes the evaluation by classifying the CaCl2-type water into types A-I to A-VI and the NaHCO3-type water into types B-I to B-IV, so that researchers can make in-depth evaluation on the credibility of hydrochemical data and analysis of influencing factors;(3) When the basic methods are used to identify the formation water, the formation water containing anions such as CO_(3)^(2-), OH- and NO_(3)^(-), or the formation water with the sodium chloride coefficient and desulphurization coefficient not matching the geological setting, are all invaded with surface water or polluted by working fluid;(4) When the comprehensive method is used, the data credibility of A-I, A-II, B-I and B-II formation water can be evaluated effectively and accurately only if the geological setting analysis in respect of the factors such as formation environment, sampling conditions, condensate water, acid fluid, leaching of ancient weathering crust, and ancient atmospheric fresh water, is combined, although such formation water is believed with high credibility.展开更多

We collected rock samples and analyzed their resistivity and induced polarization （IP） and built A series of two-dimensional models for geological conditions to investigate the applicability of WFEM to different geological structures. We also analyzed the correlation between TOC of shale and the resistivity and IP ratio to determine the threshold for identifying target formations. We used WFEM to identify the underground structures and determine the distribution, depth, and thickness of the target strata. Resistivity, IP, and total organic carbon were used to evaluate the shale gas prospects and select favorable areas （sweet spots） for exploration and development. Subsequently, drilling in these areas proved the applicability of WFEM in shale gas exploration.展开更多

The structure of prepared materials was characterized by X-ray diffraction（XRD）,transmission electron microscopy（TEM）. scanning electron microscope（SEM） and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller（BET）.The prepared TiO_2 nanotubes were used to prepare thick film gas sensors and the gas sensing properties to various gases were tested.Results show the prepared TiO_2 nanotube gas sensors responses to ethanol under dry condition at 450℃.This could be attributed to the fact that it had high porous morphology and a higher pore volume,which can promote the diffusion of ethanol deep inside the films and improve the sensor response. Moreover,the gas sensor made with nanotubes exhibit high selective response towards ethanol gas compared with H_2,CO,acetone.展开更多

文摘Accurate prediction of coal and gas outburst(CGO)hazards is paramount in gas disaster prevention and control.This paper endeavors to overcome the constraints posed by traditional prediction indexes when dealing with CGO incidents under low gas pressure conditions.In pursuit of this objective,we have studied and established a mechanical model of the working face under abnormal stress and the excitation energy conditions of CGO,and proposed a method for predicting the risk of CGO under abnormal stress.On site application verification shows that when a strong outburst hazard level prediction is issued,there is a high possibility of outburst disasters occurring.In one of the three locations where we predicted strong outburst hazards,a small outburst occurred,and the accuracy of the prediction was higher than the traditional drilling cuttings index S and drilling cuttings gas desorption index q.Finally,we discuss the mechanism of CGO under the action of stress anomalies.Based on the analysis of stress distribution changes and energy accumulation characteristics of coal under abnormal stress,this article believes that the increase in outburst risk caused by high stress abnormal gradient is mainly due to two reasons:(1)The high stress abnormal gradient leads to an increase in the plastic zone of the coal seam.After the working face advances,it indirectly leads to an increase in the gas expansion energy that can be released from the coal seam before reaching a new stress equilibrium.(2)Abnormal stress leads to increased peak stress of coal body in front of working face.When coal body in elastic area transforms to plastic area,its failure speed is accelerated,which induces accelerated gas desorption and aggravates the risk of outburst.

文摘The drilling gas production situation indicates a certain correlation between the shale gas reservoir in the Sichuan Basin and the high and low changes in formation resistivity.These variations are observed in the first member of the Longmaxi Formation to the Wufeng Formation at the bottom of the Longmaxi Formation.Given this correlation and based on the logging electrical data,this study employs the wide-field electromagnetic method(WFEM)to experimentally detect the electrical characteristics of the deep shale gas target layer in the Yibin area of southern Sichuan.The study also tests the regularity and effectiveness of the electrical parameters for evaluating favorable areas of shale gas reservoirs.In terms of specific operation,the structural pattern of the study area is implemented based on the wide-field electromagnetic results and geological data for comprehensive analysis,which identifies the main hidden faults and their influence range on low resistance.The detailed spatial distribution of the upper Ordovician Wufeng Formation and the lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation in the target layer with a buried depth of 2000-5000m is described.This layer exhibits the characteristics of a continuous and stable distribution of organic shale.After verifying the subsequent electrical logging data,the electrical logging curve is found to be essentially consistent with the shape and trend of the wide-field resistivity curve.This consistency demonstrates the effectiveness of WFEM in detecting shale gas layers.

文摘The formation water sample in oil and gas fields may be polluted in processes of testing, trial production, collection, storage, transportation and analysis, making the properties of formation water not be reflected truly. This paper discusses identification methods and the data credibility evaluation method for formation water in oil and gas fields of petroliferous basins within China. The results of the study show that: (1) the identification methods of formation water include the basic methods of single factors such as physical characteristics, water composition characteristics, water type characteristics, and characteristic coefficients, as well as the comprehensive evaluation method of data credibility proposed on this basis, which mainly relies on the correlation analysis sodium chloride coefficient and desulfurization coefficient and combines geological background evaluation;(2) The basic identifying methods for formation water enable the preliminary identification of hydrochemical data and the preliminary screening of data on site, the proposed comprehensive method realizes the evaluation by classifying the CaCl2-type water into types A-I to A-VI and the NaHCO3-type water into types B-I to B-IV, so that researchers can make in-depth evaluation on the credibility of hydrochemical data and analysis of influencing factors;(3) When the basic methods are used to identify the formation water, the formation water containing anions such as CO_(3)^(2-), OH- and NO_(3)^(-), or the formation water with the sodium chloride coefficient and desulphurization coefficient not matching the geological setting, are all invaded with surface water or polluted by working fluid;(4) When the comprehensive method is used, the data credibility of A-I, A-II, B-I and B-II formation water can be evaluated effectively and accurately only if the geological setting analysis in respect of the factors such as formation environment, sampling conditions, condensate water, acid fluid, leaching of ancient weathering crust, and ancient atmospheric fresh water, is combined, although such formation water is believed with high credibility.

文摘In an effort to reduce the shale gas exploration risks and costs, we applied the wide-field electromagnetic method （WFEM）, because of its strong anti-interference capability, high resolution, ability to conduct exploration at large depths, and high efficiency, to the Bayan Syncline in the South Huayuan block, Hunan Province. We collected rock samples and analyzed their resistivity and induced polarization （IP） and built A series of two-dimensional models for geological conditions to investigate the applicability of WFEM to different geological structures. We also analyzed the correlation between TOC of shale and the resistivity and IP ratio to determine the threshold for identifying target formations. We used WFEM to identify the underground structures and determine the distribution, depth, and thickness of the target strata. Resistivity, IP, and total organic carbon were used to evaluate the shale gas prospects and select favorable areas （sweet spots） for exploration and development. Subsequently, drilling in these areas proved the applicability of WFEM in shale gas exploration.

文摘In order to research the influence of coal-rock mass morphology of mining space on the flow law of gas,the laboratory physical model and numerical computation methods were adopted to simulate coal mining activities.The simulation results indicate that,after coal seam mining,the loose rock accumulation body of free caving,ordered rock arrangement body of plate damage rich in longitudinal and transverse fractures and horizontal fissure body formed by rock mass deformation imbalance are formed from bottom to top in the mining space.For these three types of accumulation bodies,there are essential differences in the accumulation state,rock size and gas breakover characteristics.According to this,the coal-rock mass in the mining space is classified into gas turbulence channel area,gas transitional flow channel area and gas seepage channel area.In the turbulence channel area,the gas is distributed transversely and longitudinally and gas diffuses in the form of convection with Reynolds number R_e more than100;in the transitional flow channel area,one-way or two-way gas channels are crisscross and gas is of transitional flow regime with R,.between 10 and 100.In the seepage channel area,there are a few vertical gas channels with R,.less than 10.In this paper,the researches on the gas orientation method in different partitions were further carried out,gas orientation methods of low-level pipe burying,middle-level interception and high-level extraction were determined and an on-site industrial test was conducted,achieving the effective diversion of gas and verifying the reasonableness of gas channel partition.

文摘As the main unconventional natural gas reservoirs,shale gas reservoirs and coalbed methane(CBM)reservoirs belong to adsorptive gas reservoirs,i.e.,gas reservoirs containing adsorbed gas.Shale gas and CBM reservoirs usually have the characteristics of rich adsorbed gas and obvious dynamic changes of porosity and permeability.A generalized material balance equation and the corresponding reserve evaluation method considering all the mechanisms for both shale gas reservoirs and CBM reservoirs are necessary.In this work,a generalized material balance equation(GMBE)considering the effects of critical desorption pressure,stress sensitivity,matrix shrinkage,water production,water influx,and solubility of natural gas in water is established.Then,by converting the GMBE to a linear relationship between two parameter groups related with known formation/fluid properties and dynamic performance data,the straight-line reserve evaluation method is proposed.By using the slope and the y-intercept of this straight line,the original adsorbed gas in place(OAGIP),original free gas in place(OFGIP),original dissolved gas in place(ODGIP),and the original gas in place(OGIP)can be quickly calculated.Third,two validation cases for shale gas reservoir and CBM reservoir are conducted using commercial reservoir simulator and the coalbed methane dynamic performance analysis software,respectively.Finally,two field studies in the Fuling shale gas field and the Baode CBM field are presented.Results show that the GMBE and the corresponding straight-line reserve evaluation method are rational,accurate,and effective for both shale gas reservoirs and CBM reservoirs.More detailed information about reserves of shale gas and CBM reservoirs can be clarified,and only the straight-line fitting approach is used to determine all kinds of reserves without iteration,proving that the proposed method has great advantages compared with other current methods.

文摘Coal seam gas content is frequently measured in quantity during underground coal mining operation and coalbed methane(CBM)exploration as a significant basic parameter.Due to the calculation error of lost gas and residual gas in the direct method,the efficiency and accuracy of the current methods are not inadequate to the large area multi-point measurement of coal seam gas content.This paper firstly deduces a simplified theoretical dynamic model for calculating lost gas based on gas dynamic diffusion theory.Secondly,the effects of various factors on gas dynamic diffusion from coal particle are experimentally studied.And sampling procedure of representative coal particle is improved.Thirdly,a new estimation method of residual gas content based on excess adsorption and competitive adsorption theory is proposed.The results showed that the maximum error of calculating the losing gas content by using the new simplified model is only 4%.Considering the influence of particle size on gas diffusion law,the particle size of the collected coal sample is below 0.25 mm,which improves the measurement speed and reflects the safety representativeness of the sample.The determination time of gas content reduced from 36 to 3 h/piece.Moreover,the absolute error is 0.15–0.50 m^3/t,and the relative error is within 5%.A new engineering method for determining the coal seam gas content is developed according to the above research.

文摘Based on catastrophe theory,we used the catastrophe progression method to predict the risk of coal and gas outbursts in coal mines.According to the major factors affecting coal and gas outbursts,we built a comprehensive evaluation index system and a coal and gas outburst prediction model.In addition,we performed a standard transformation for each index system;based on the degree the various indices affect the risk of an outburst,to make the data dimensionless.Based on the outburst data from eight mines,we determined catastrophe progression values and verified these values.The results show that:1) converting multi-dimensional problems into one-dimensional problems using this catastrophe progression method can simplify the steps of predicting coal and gas outbursts;2) when pre-determined catastrophe progression values are used to predict coal and gas outbursts,the predicting accuracy rate can be as high as 87.5%;3) the various coal mines have different factors inducing outbursts with varying importance of these factors and 4) the catastrophe progression values,calculated based on these factors,can be used effectively to predict the risk of outbursts in coal mines.

文摘With the vigorous development of China's iron and steel industry and the introduction of ultra-low emission policies,the emission of pollutants such as SO_(2)and NO x has received unprecedented attention.Considering the increase of the proportion of semi-dry desulfurization technology in the desulfurization process,several semi-dry desulphurization technologies such as flue gas circulating fluidized bed(CFB),dense flow absorber(DFA)and spray drying absorption(SDA)are briefly summarized.Moreover,a method for simultaneous treatment of SO_(2)and NOx in sintering/pelletizing flue gas by O_(3)oxidation combined with semidry method is introduced.Meantime,the effects of key parameters such as O_(3)/NO molar ratio,Ca SO_(3),SO_(2),reaction temperature,Ca/(S+2 N)molar ratio,droplet size and approach to adiabatic saturation temperature(AAST)on denitrification and desulfurization are analyzed.Furthermore,the reaction mechanism of denitrification and desulfurization is further elucidated.Finally,the advantages and development prospects of the new technology are proposed.

文摘In this paper,the TiO_2 nanotubes were synthesized by hydrothermal method using a 10 mol/L NaOH aqueous solution at 150℃. The structure of prepared materials was characterized by X-ray diffraction（XRD）,transmission electron microscopy（TEM）. scanning electron microscope（SEM） and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller（BET）.The prepared TiO_2 nanotubes were used to prepare thick film gas sensors and the gas sensing properties to various gases were tested.Results show the prepared TiO_2 nanotube gas sensors responses to ethanol under dry condition at 450℃.This could be attributed to the fact that it had high porous morphology and a higher pore volume,which can promote the diffusion of ethanol deep inside the films and improve the sensor response. Moreover,the gas sensor made with nanotubes exhibit high selective response towards ethanol gas compared with H_2,CO,acetone.

文摘Natural gas hydrate(NGH)has attracted much attention as a new alternative energy globally.However,evaluations of global NGH resources in the past few decades have casted a decreasing trend,where the estimate as of today is less than one ten-thousandth of the estimate forty years ago.The NGH researches in China started relatively late,but achievements have been made in the South China Sea(SCS)in the past two decades.Thirty-five studies had been carried out to evaluate NGH resource,and results showed a flat trend,ranging from 60 to 90 billion tons of oil equivalent,which was 2-3 times of the evaluation results of technical recoverable oil and gas resources in the SCS.The big difference is that the previous 35 group of NGH resource evaluations for the SCS only refers to the prospective gas resource with low grade level and high uncertainty,which cannot be used to guide exploration or researches on development strategies.Based on the analogy with the genetic mechanism of conventional oil and gas resources,this study adopts the newly proposed genetic method and geological analogy method to evaluate the NGH resource.Results show that the conventional oil and gas resources are 346.29×10^(8)t,the volume of NGH and free dynamic field are 25.19×10^(4)km^(3) and(2.05-2.48)×10^(6)km^(3),and the total amount of in-situ NGH resources in the SCS is about(4.47-6.02)×10^(12)m^(3).It is considered that the resource of hydrate should not exceed that of conventional oil and gas,so it is 30 times lower than the previous estimate.This study provides a more reliable geological basis for further NGH exploration and development.

文摘The liquid loading is one of the most frequently encountered phenomena in the transportation of gas pipeline,reducing the transmission efficiency and threatening the flow assurance.However,most of the traditional mechanism models are semi-empirical models,and have to be resolved under different working conditions with complex calculation process.The development of big data technology and artificial intelligence provides the possibility to establish data-driven models.This paper aims to establish a liquid loading prediction model for natural gas pipeline with high generalization ability based on machine learning.First,according to the characteristics of actual gas pipeline,a variety of reasonable combinations of working conditions such as different gas velocity,pipe diameters,water contents and outlet pressures were set,and multiple undulating pipeline topography with different elevation differences was established.Then a large number of simulations were performed by simulator OLGA to obtain the data required for machine learning.After data preprocessing,six supervised learning algorithms,including support vector machine(SVM),decision tree(DT),random forest(RF),artificial neural network(ANN),plain Bayesian classification(NBC),and K nearest neighbor algorithm(KNN),were compared to evaluate the performance of liquid loading prediction.Finally,the RF and KNN with better performance were selected for parameter tuning and then used to the actual pipeline for liquid loading location prediction.Compared with OLGA simulation,the established data-driven model not only improves calculation efficiency and reduces workload,but also can provide technical support for gas pipeline flow assurance.
