It can be used for both energy exploitation and CO_2 geological sequestration. Here, a 3-D, "two-spot" pattern well model is developed to analyze the mechanism of CO_2-water displacement and heat extraction. To obtain a deeper understanding of CO_2-geothermal system under some more realistic conditions, heterogeneity of reservoir's hydrological properties is taken into account. Due to the fortissimo mobility of CO_2, as long as the existence of highly permeable zone between the two wells, it is more likely to flow through the highly permeable zone to reach the production well, even though the flow path is longer. The preferential flow shortens circulation time and reduces heat-exchange area, probably leading to early thermal breakthrough, which makes the production fluid temperature decrease rapidly. The analyses of flow dynamics of CO_2-water fluid and heat may be useful for future design of a CO_2-based geothermal development system.展开更多

文摘The increase in CO_(2)injectivity and shifting of CO_(2)-absorbing layers in multilayered geological CO_(2)sequestration(GCS)reservoirs in Ordos,China indicate significantpermeability variations in certain layers.To capture these system changes,a numerical model incorporating all 21 aquifers and internal aquitards was developed.The monitored pressure was well matched through multiphase and thermalhydraulic-mechanical(THM)coupling numerical simulations by introducing permeability variations.The results revealed that the permeability in the second layer increased on approximately day 13 due to the abrupt pressure buildup and temperature decrease.Even such a low rate of CO_(2)(2.8 kg/s)injected into the low permeability system initiated some fractures and the permeability in the second layer around the wellbore increased by 722 times.The second critical system change occurred on approximately day 386.As demonstrated in the numerical simulation,the substantial injection of cold CO_(2)induced strong thermal stress,leading to rock contraction and the initiation of several cracks.The permeability of the firstlayer around the wellbore unexpectedly increased by 4 orders of magnitude.Since no additional pressure could drive the CO_(2)into the remaining 17 layers,the total storage capability of the multilayered system was reduced.A whole picture of the system variation is fully presented and the underlying mechanisms are analyzed.It is believed that the phenomenon of thermal-hydraulic fracturing observed in this fieldand the simulation procedures will benefitother fluidinjection and production works in various geotechnical settings.
