孔隙填充型水合物储层弹性波传播特性研究

Natural gas hydrate (NGH) is widely regarded as a kind of clean alternative energy resource for the future. It is of great strategic significance for the energy security and the sustainable development of the economic society of China to study the NGH exploitation techniques. The knowledge of elastic wave characteristics for the pore filling NGH reservoir is very poor for the lack of both natural and artificial pore filling NGH sample. In this project, the method of preparing pore filling NGH sample based on the microwave heating is proposed, and its elastic wave characteristics will be studied. The effects of NGH saturation and effective stress on the wave propagation velocity, the frequency dispersion and attenuation property will be studied experimentally by employing the prepared pore filling NGH sample. The wave velocity prediction model and the quality factor calculation model of the pore filling NGH reservoir which are coupled with NGH saturation and effective stress will be established based on the experimental results and the theoretical analysis. The wave dispersion equation will also be established by combining the wave velocity prediction model with the quality factor calculation model. Therefore, the prediction of the low-frequency wave velocity can be achieved by the application of the high-frequency wave velocity obtained in laboratory. Furthermore, the study results can be used to identify the pore filling NGH reservoir and predict NGH saturation by employing geophysical methods.
