Review on the progress for physical simulation for gas reservoirs co-production in multi-pressure system
The gas reservoirs co-production in multi-pressure system is one of the important measures to improve the development efficiency of the superposed gas-bearing systems. However, the co-production effect is not ideal due to the special reservoir forming background. The mechanism of co-production and high-efficient development of the multi-pressure system has become an key scientific problem, which restricts the efficient exploration and development of superposed gas-bearing systems. This paper focuses on the gas reservoirs co-production in multi-pressure system, and divides the physical simulation types of co-production into two separate fields: coalbed methane and non coalbed methane. It clarifies the current research status of gas reservoirs co-production in multi-pressure system from the aspects of device functions and characteristics, understanding of co-production, and existing problems. Firstly, the large-scale physical simulation test device can effectively eliminate or weaken the problems of homogeneous single-type reservoir samples, single monitoring data means and single stress loading form caused by paralleling multiple core grippers to build the physical simulation model. The development direction of the physical simulation for co-production in multi-pressure system should be to achieve true three-dimensional heterogeneous complex in-situ stress state of large-scale heterogeneous multi-type reservoir samples. The characteristics of fluid pressure transmission between adjacent reservoirs, the inter-layer crossflow, the multi-phase natural gas symbiosis should be considered. On this basis, the sensitivity of co-production of multi-pressure system to reservoir physical properties was deeply summarized. The differences in inter-layer pressure difference, permeability, effective stress, water saturation and other factors may induce the fluid interference and reservoir gas production damage, and optimizing co-production style may be a way to reduce the fluid interference and reservoir gas production damage. In totally, the next research should focus on exploring the influence of the coupling effect of low porosity and low permeability, gas water two-phase flow, multiphase gas symbiosis and coexistence of multiple types of reservoirs on the dynamic evolution law of reservoir-wellbore flow field induced by co-production fluid interference, clarifying the reservoir damage and its mechanism of different phase fluid intrusions on the reservoir, and revealing the coupling flow characteristics of inter-layer crossflow and wellbore pipe flow considering the fluid interference effect
Research on temporalâspatial relationship between ground fracturing wells and underground drilling for substitution drainage of during extraction exhaustion period
In order to make use of the favorable extraction conditions formed by ground fracturing to carry out the underground borehole replacement extraction in the drainage exhaustion period of ground fracturing wells, and form the advanced treatment of ground fracturing wells + underground borehole replacement extraction mode of underground borehole replacement extraction, the temporalïŒspatial relationship between ground fracturing wells and underground drilling for substitution extraction of during drainage exhaustion period was studied. Through the analysis of the distribution law of fracturing fractures, the investigation of the effect of ground fracturing on enhancing permeability and promoting extraction, and the numerical simulation of the variation law of coal reservoir parameters, the influence and effective range of ground fracturing wells in Lu âan Mining Area are mastered. Numerical simulation method is used to analyze and determine the optimal temporalïŒspatial relationship between ground fracturing wells and underground drilling for substitution extraction. Based on the drainage curve of surface fractured wells and the demand of drilling in the drainage exhaustion period, the definition and division method of the drainage exhaustion period of surface fractured wells are discussed, and the discriminant indexes and key time nodes of the drainage exhaustion period of surface fractured wells are put forward. The results show : The effective influence range of ground fracturing wells is 80 m. In this area, the reservoir pressure can be decreased by about 50%, the permeability coefficient can be increased by 0.77â1.40 times, and the average pure volume of single underground drilling for substitution extraction can reach 53.68â131.67 m3/d, which improves the extraction efficiency of downhole drilling. When the position of ground fracturing wells is fixed along the axis of the underground drilling, the shorter the normal distance between the underground drilling and the ground fracturing wells, the better the extraction effect.When the normal distance between the ground fracturing wells and the underground drilling is constant, the best extraction results are achieved when the ground fracturing wells is located in the middle of the axial direction of the underground drilling.The gas production rate of ground fracturing wells is used as an indicator of drainage exhaustion period.And the critical value of the indicator of drainage exhaustion period of surface fractured wells in the Lu'an mine area is 200 m3/d, and the corresponding failure period time node is 8~10 years
Deformation and failure characteristics of gas drainage drilling-reaming coal mass in non-uniform stress field
The deformation and failure characteristics of coal around gas drainage boreholes in deep soft and low permeability coal seams affect coal seam gas pre-drainage. Based on the condition of non-uniform stress field, the mechanical model of borehole disturbed coal mass was developed, the analytical solutions of stress, strain and displacement in the damaged zone, plastic zone and elastic zone of borehole disturbed coal mass were deduced, the influence law of factors such as lateral pressure coefficient, load condition, cohesion and hole expanding behavior on the âthree zoneâ distribution of disturbed coal mass were analyzed, and the reliability of the theoretical model was verified through engineering examples. The results show that under the condition of non-uniform stress field, the plastic zone and damaged zone of disturbed coal mass are elliptical distribution. With the increase of lateral pressure coefficient, the length of the upper and lower wings of the plastic zone and damaged zone of disturbed coal mass becomes larger and larger, and the radius of the plastic zone and damaged zone in the direction of smaller stress is greater than the radius of the two zones in the direction of large stress. The radius of plastic zone and damaged zone of coal mass increases with the increase of vertical load, and decreases with the increase of initial cohesion and residual cohesion. The influence of vertical load on its shape can be ignored. When the borehole diameter is expanded from 0.1 m to 0.5 m, the coal mass 0â1.0 m away from the borehole center produces a strong disturbance, the coal mass 1.0â4.6 m produces a weak disturbance, and the coal mass after 4.6 m has almost no influence. Through the field example of No.16032 bottom pumping roadway hydraulic reaming in the Guhanshan coal mine, it is observed that the disturbed coal mass in the reaming section has a high degree of damage. Based on the coal output, the reaming diameter is deduced to be 1.5 m, and then the deformation and damage characteristics of drilling reaming coal mass are obtained through theoretical calculation and numerical simulation respectively. The two are in good agreement, so as to verify the reliability of the theoretical model
Study on Gas Extraction Technology for Goaf Using L-Shaped Borehole on the Ground
This study aimed to examine gas extraction technology in the goaf of an L-shaped borehole in the mining fissure zone of a short-distance coal seam group. The numerical simulation method was used to analyze the failure law of overlying rock during mining, and a mathematical model was established for gas migration in the mining overburden. Finally, gas extraction tests were performed for the L-shaped borehole in the mining fissure zone. The results showed that as the coal mining project progressed, the damage area of the overlying strata in the goaf became larger, and the plastic damage area of the overlying rock along the strike had a saddle shape, being concave in the middle and convex at both ends. The closer the L-shaped borehole in the mining fissure zone was to the coal seam roof, the greater the amount of air leaking from the working face into the goaf, and the lower the overall gas concentration in the goaf. When the vertical distance of the L-shaped borehole was too high, the ability of the L-shaped borehole to control the gas concentration in the lower goaf was weakened. Moreover, the mining fracture zone was a good space for gas migration and storage. Thus, arranging the L-shaped borehole in this zone can greatly improve the efficiency of borehole gas extraction. According to the overlying rock conditions and mining conditions of Tunlan Mine, the L-shaped borehole was positioned 43 m away from the roof of the coal seam. The extraction rate of the L-shaped borehole reached 9.30 m3âminâ1, and the gas concentration in the corners of the working face was kept below 0.4%, yielding an excellent extraction effect
Undesorbable residual gas in coal seams and its influence on gas drainage
The definition of residual gas can be found in different scenarios, such as the fast and slow desorption methods of measuring gas content and the sorption hysteresis test and gas management of coal mines, however, its meaning varies a lot in different contexts. The main aim of this paper is to discuss the existence of truly undesorbable residual gas in coal seam conditions and its impacts on sorption model and gas drainage efficiency. We believe the undesorbable residual gas does exist due to the observation of the extended slow desorption test and the sorption hysteresis test. The origin of undesorbable residual gas may be because of the inaccessible (closed or semi-closed) pores. Some gas molecules produced during coalification are stored in these inaccessible pores, since the coal is relatively intact in the coal seam condition, these gas molecules cannot escape during natural desorption and then create the undesorbable residual gas. Based on the existing adsorption models, we propose the improved desorption versions by taking into consideration the role of residual gas. By numerically simulating a gas drainage case, the gas contents after different drainage times are studied to understand the influence of residual gas content on gas drainage. The results indicate that the influence starts to be obvious even when the total gas content is at a high level, and the impact becomes more and more apparent with increasing drainage time. Our study shows that the existence of residual gas will impede the gas drainage and the total amount of recoverable coal seam methane may be less than expected
Research on dynamic workflow construction method of coal mine gas control
At present, the key links of coal mine gas control management still need manual supervision. The gas control measures can not achieve 'reliable quality' and 'process traceability'. The backward gas control management mode results in overlapping functions, poor process and low degree of data sharing. In view of the above problems, based on workflow technology, from the perspective of global management, the dynamic workflow construction method of coal mine gas control is studied. Firstly, the workflow, constraint conditions and implementation process of gas control in the minging face and coal uncovering working face are analyzed. The links of gas control flow is divided into two types: test and measure. It is specifically divided into five types of work, including approval of technical documents and reports, drilling construction, sampling, gas parameter measurement, and gas extraction and parameter detection. Secondly, the method reconstructs the last four types of work and further divides the work into 25 basic work units. The method uses Petri Nets to combine basic work units to establish different cross-departmental gas control complex business workflow. Based on the gas control workflow chart, a representation method for the implementation progress of gas control in the working face is established. The method uses the strategy of combining initiative and automation to assign task of the workflow. The method uses description files to dynamically generate and configure workflow networks to meet the requirements of dynamic workflow modeling for gas control. Finally, based on the Flowable workflow engine, the dynamic workflow function of gas control is developed and applied. The results show that the construction of dynamic workflow can make the gas control business process. It is conducive to improving the efficiency of gas control collaborative execution, realizing the rapid flow, tracking and sharing of data. It is conducive to monitoring the overall operation and optimization of gas control work, improving the decision-making capability of coal mine gas control, and innovating the management mode of coal mine gas control
Study and application of a continuous inversion model of coal seam gas pressure in front area of heading face
Abstract The gas pressure in front area of heading face is essential to dynamically evaluate coal and gas outburst during coal mining. In this work, a novel inversion model of gas pressure in front area of the heading face was established on premise of the hypothesis that a time-dependent zone of steady flow exists within newly exposed face. The key parameters in the inversion model were obtained based on the gas emission models and field data of gas emission rate in different times, which were used to calculate the volumes of gas emission from different sources. The results show that the percentage of gas emission from the heading face, coal wall and collapsed coal ranges from 7% to 47%, 47% to 82% and 2% to 11%, respectively. Based on the calculated volumes of gas emission and gas pressure inversion model, the gas pressure was obtained and transformed to the gas content. The absolute errors between the gas content tested and transformed in every hour is 0.4%â33%, which proved the rationality of gas pressure inversion model. Furthermore, the daily drifting footage, the radius of gas pressure boundary and the gas permeability coefficient of coal seam were confirmed to have a great effect on the result of gas pressure inversion. The inversion results verify that the speedy excavation can increase the risk of coal and gas outburst. This work produces a useful method for gas disaster prevention and control that converts the gas emission rate to an index of gas pressure within coal seam
