井下原位燃烧加热与降压联合开采冻土区天然气水合物基础研究

A fundamental research on the exploitation of the natural gas hydrates (NGH) in permafrost by means of down-hole in situ combustion and depressurization will be carried out based on the reservoir characteristics of the NGH in permafrost of Tibetan Plateau of China. Firstly, the NGH phase equilibrium conditions, the dissociation kinetics parameters, and the optimum combustion conditions of the down-hole in situ combustion are measured by experiment. Theirs influence mechanisms and the down-hole in situ combustion and explosion characteristics are studied and discussed. The mechanisms of the NGH decomposition kinetics and the replacement of NGH with CO2 hydrate are studied by molecular dynamics simulation. The prediction models of the NGH phase equilibrium and dissociation kinetics are established based on these studies. Then, the NGH exploitation experiments of three-dimensional simulation are carried out to study the gas/water production rates, the gas-liquid seepage and the heat and mass transfer, so as to clarify theirs influence mechanisms. The three-dimensional NGH exploitation theoretical model is thus established base on the NGH decomposition, gas-liquid seepage, and heat and mass transfer. Finally, the three-dimensional numerical simulation is used to further optimize the operating parameters of the NGH exploitation process, and to study the "ice blockage", the "secondary hydrate formation", the CO2 hydrate formation and the NGH replacement mechanism by CO2. The influence mechanisms, and the controlling and regulation principle are also studied by this three-dimensional numerical simulation. The key issues occurred in the process of the permafrost NGH exploitation by down-hole in situ combustion and depressurization stimulation, such as the down-hole in situ combustion method, NGH dissociation kinetics, gas-liquid seepage, heat and mass transfer, "ice blockage", "secondary hydrate formation", and the CO2 hydrate formation, will be solved through the implementation of this project. The research will provide a new exploitation method for the permafrost NGH of our country, and will also provide the basic technical data and theoretical supports for the application of this new exploitation method.
