Detailed Description
Unless defined otherwise, all technical terms used in the examples of the present application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art.
To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The underground gas storage has irreplaceable effects on adjusting the consumption of natural gas and guaranteeing the safety of gas supply, and the construction of the underground gas storage is emphasized by many countries. The research and construction of the underground gas storage in China are still in the starting stage, and the currently built underground gas storage has pioneering property in the aspects of ground process, construction technology and the like, but a dynamic monitoring technology and a sealing evaluation system of a system are not formed in the injection and production process of the underground gas storage due to short running time.
Due to the complexity and the unpredictability of geological conditions, the salt rock cover, the production casing in a well and the technical casing of the underground gas storage are all in leakage risks in the production and operation process, so that the monitoring of the leakage condition of the underground gas storage is one of the most important works in the injection and production operation of the underground gas storage, the service life and the investment recovery period of the underground gas storage are related, the personal and property safety is related, and measures can be taken to reduce the loss to the minimum more quickly when the leakage point or the leakage phenomenon of the underground gas storage is found in time.
At present, a geophysical logging technology is adopted, namely a special underground instrument can be adopted to judge whether a production casing connected with a salt cavern leaks or not, but underground operation is required, so that the cost is high, and whether a salt cavity buried deeply leaks or not cannot be judged. In view of this, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for monitoring leakage of an underground gas storage, and the scheme is as follows:
a method of monitoring a subterranean gas storage reservoir for leaks, the method comprising, with reference to fig. 1:
step 201, analyzing natural gas in an underground gas storage to obtain a first analysis result;
step 202, selecting a tracer according to a first analysis result;
step 203, injecting a tracer into the underground gas storage;
step 204, analyzing the natural gas in the underground gas reservoir injected with the tracer after the reference time to obtain a second analysis result;
step 205, comparing the second analysis result with the first analysis result to obtain a comparison result;
and step 206, judging whether the underground gas storage is leaked or not according to the comparison result.
Through analyzing the natural gas in the underground gas storage, because the underground gas storage does not inject the tracer this moment into, consequently, can obtain before not injecting the tracer, the composition of underground gas storage and its peripheral gas, and then make the composition of the tracer of choosing have the difference with this underground gas storage and its peripheral gas's composition to guarantee that the tracer can better play a role. And injecting a tracer and natural gas into the underground gas storage, after a reference time, the tracer can be diffused in the natural gas, analyzing the natural gas in the underground gas storage into which the tracer is injected to obtain a second analysis result, comparing the second analysis result with the first analysis result, and when a difference exists between the first analysis result and the second analysis result, indicating that the natural gas injected into the underground gas storage is leaked, wherein the content of the tracer is reduced accordingly. Therefore, whether the natural gas leaks or not can be further judged by the comparison result between the first analysis result and the second analysis result. Through the method that this application provided, monitor from the angle of difference in to the underground gas storage, the monitoring precision is high, and because the tracer of selecting is pollution-free to the environment, for adopting special instrument in the pit to monitor among the correlation technique, has improved monitoring efficiency, has reduced the cost of monitoring, and can not exert an influence to normal notes gas production operation.
Step 201, analyzing natural gas in the underground gas storage to obtain a first analysis result.
Optionally, step 201 comprises: step 2011, step 2012 and step 2013.
It should be noted that the underground gas storage comprises a plurality of salt cavities buried underground, and referring to fig. 2, each salt cavity 6 extends to the ground surface 7 through the production casing 2 to form a wellhead, and natural gas, tracer and the like are injected into the salt cavities 6 through the wellhead. In production, a circle of technical casing 4 is generally sleeved outside the production casing 2, and the technical casing 4 can protect the production casing 2 from being damaged and can also ensure the temperature of natural gas in the production casing 2. The position where the production casing 2 is connected with the salt cavity 6 is called a borehole 5, the salt cavity layer top surface 8 is arranged above the borehole, the part of the production casing 2 extending to the ground is called a wellhead, and a wellhead valve 1 is arranged at the wellhead to control the natural gas in the salt cavity 6 to be taken and placed. A gap is left between the production casing 2 and the technical casing 4, forming an annulus 3.
It can be understood that, since the present application monitors whether the underground gas storage reservoir is leaked by adding the tracer, and the substance to be observed and studied needs to be distinguished based on the nature of the tracer, it is necessary to analyze the selected salt cavity and the gas around the salt cavity, and to avoid that the similarity between the selected tracer component and the gas around the underground gas storage reservoir is too high to compare, thereby causing observation and study failure.
And 2011, acquiring a production casing of one salt cavity and analyzing the natural gas in the annulus to obtain a first analysis sub-result.
Because there are many places in the underground gas storage where leakage is easy to occur, for example, leakage can occur around the salt cavity, leakage can occur at the well position, leakage can occur around the production casing, leakage can occur around the technical casing, and the like. Therefore, the content of the natural gas is analyzed by obtaining the natural gas from different places.
In the illustrated embodiment, the natural gas in the production casing and annulus of a salt cavity in a subterranean reservoir is obtained and analyzed for the majority of the natural gas content therein, without injecting a tracer into the salt cavity. It will be appreciated that when natural gas leaks, the natural gas obtained from the location may contain other gases and therefore the content of the natural gas needs to be analysed.
Step 2012, the natural gas in the production casing and the annulus of the salt cavities adjacent to the salt cavity is obtained and analyzed to obtain a second sub-analysis result.
It will be appreciated that when a salt cavity buried deep in the ground leaks, natural gas will diffuse in the ground, so that the production casing and the natural gas in the annulus of selected salt cavities adjacent to the salt cavity can be obtained for analysis without injecting tracer into the salt cavity, resulting in a second sub-analysis.
It should be noted that the number of the multiple salt cavities adjacent to the salt cavity is not limited in this application, and the natural gas in the production casing and the annular space of the multiple salt cavities may be obtained for analysis according to the size of the natural gas diffusion range.
And 2013, obtaining the soil sample which is centered on the salt cavity and within the reference range, and analyzing the soil sample to obtain a third analysis sub-result.
It will be appreciated that when natural gas leaks, the natural gas leaks from the salt cavity buried underground and diffuses around the leaking salt cavity and into the surrounding soil. Thus, before injecting the tracer into the salt cavity, a third sub-result is obtained by obtaining a soil sample within a reference range centered on the selected salt cavity and analyzing the soil sample.
As an example, the reference range provided by the embodiments of the present application may be a soil sample within a diameter range of 1-10 meters centered on the selected salt cavity, resulting in a third sub-analysis result.
Step 202, selecting a tracer according to the first analysis result.
And judging the selected approximate components of the salt cavity and the gas around the salt cavity by combining the first, second and third analysis sub-results obtained in the steps, and further selecting the tracer with a larger composition difference with the gas component.
Optionally, step 202 comprises: and selecting a tracer according to the first analysis sub result, the second analysis sub result and the third analysis sub result.
As an example, when the tracer is selected in the embodiment of the present application, the composition of the tracer can be greatly different from the obtained first, second, and third analysis sub-results, and the tracer selected by the analysis sub-results has stable properties, is easy to monitor, has high sensitivity, is safe and non-toxic, and has little environmental pollution. The selected tracer has low cost and small dosage, and does not produce quality influence on natural gas.
Step 203, injecting a tracer into the underground gas storage.
Optionally, injecting a tracer into the underground reservoir, comprising: the mass ratio of the tracer injected into the underground gas storage to the natural gas in the underground gas storage is 1-1.5.
And selecting the content of the injected tracer according to the size of the salt cavity, and injecting the tracer and natural gas into the salt cavity together. So that the content of the tracer in the gas in the underground gas storage reaches 1.0 ml/cubic meter.
And step 204, analyzing the natural gas in the underground gas reservoir injected with the tracer after the reference time, and obtaining a second analysis result.
After injecting natural gas and tracer into the salt cavity, analyzing the natural gas in the underground gas reservoir of the injected tracer after a reference time. It will be appreciated that when a leak occurs in the salt cavity, that is to say when a leak occurs in the salt cavity or when a leak occurs in the wellbore or when a leak occurs in the production casing, by analysing the natural gas in the underground reservoir into which the tracer is injected, it can be found that the content of the tracer is reduced, from which it can be inferred that a leak has occurred in the salt cavity, and thus remedial action can be taken in time to reduce losses.
It should be noted that the tracer is required to diffuse in the gas in the underground gas storage, and if the gas in the underground gas storage leaks, a certain time is required to monitor whether the tracer leaks. Therefore, the reference time provided in the embodiment of the present invention may be 30 to 35 days, and may be, for example, 30 days, 31 days, 32 days, 33 days, 34 days, 35 days, or the like.
Optionally, step 204 includes step 2041, step 2042 and step 2043.
Step 2041, analyzing the production casing of the salt cavity and the natural gas in the annulus to obtain a first analysis value.
As mentioned above, the leakage of the salt cavity includes the leakage of the production casing of the salt cavity, and when the production casing leaks, the annulus between the production casing and the technical casing may have leaked natural gas and be mixed with the injected tracer. Thus, the analysis of the natural gas in the production casing and annulus of the salt cavity is performed to obtain a first analysis value. Whether natural gas leakage occurs at the production casing in the single salt cavity can be judged through the first analysis value.
Step 2042, analyzing the natural gas in the production casing and the annular space of the salt cavities adjacent to the salt cavities to obtain a second analysis value.
When other salt cavities in the underground gas storage need to be further detected to be leaked, the production sleeves of a plurality of salt cavities adjacent to the salt cavities and the natural gas in the annular space need to be analyzed, and whether the salt cavities are leaked is judged according to the obtained second analysis value.
2043, analyzing the soil sample within the reference range by taking the salt cavity as the center to obtain a third analysis value.
It can be understood that when the salt cavity leaks, the natural gas leaks from the salt cavity buried underground, and diffuses around the leaked salt cavity to enter the surrounding soil. Therefore, a third analysis value is obtained by obtaining a soil sample within a reference range centered on the selected salt cavity and analyzing the soil sample.
And step 205, comparing the second analysis result with the first analysis result to obtain a comparison result.
As will be appreciated, the first analysis result is a result obtained by analysis before the tracer is not injected, and the second analysis result is a result obtained after the tracer is injected and a period of time has elapsed. After a period of time, if the natural gas in the salt cavity leaks, comparing the first analysis result with the second analysis result to obtain a comparison result, and judging whether the natural gas leaks or not according to the comparison result.
Optionally, step 205, includes: step 2051, step 2052, step 2053, and step 2054.
Step 2051, the first analysis sub-result is compared with the first analysis value to obtain a first comparison result.
It will be appreciated that the first analytical sub-result and the first analytical value are both analysed at the same location, i.e. both from the production casing of the salt cavity and from the natural gas in the annulus. If the production casing of the salt cavity leaks from the natural gas in the annulus, a distinction will be made between the second analysis value and the first analysis result, which will yield the first comparison result after comparison. And whether the natural gas in the production casing of the salt cavity and the annular space leaks or not can be judged through the first comparison result.
And step 2052, comparing the second analysis sub-result with the second analysis value to obtain a second comparison result.
It will be appreciated that the second analytical sub-result and the second analytical value are both analysed at the same location, i.e. both for the natural gas in the production casing and annulus of the plurality of salt chambers adjacent to the salt chamber. If the production casing of a plurality of salt cavities adjacent to the salt cavity leaks from the natural gas in the annulus, the second analytical sub-result is distinguished from the second analytical value, and a second comparison result is obtained after comparison. And judging whether the natural gas in the production casing and the annular space of the salt cavities adjacent to the salt cavities leaks or not through the second comparison result.
And step 2053, comparing the third analysis sub-result with the second analysis value to obtain a third comparison result.
It will be appreciated that the third analysis sub-result and the second analysis value are obtained by analysis at the same location, i.e. both results from analysis of a soil sample for a soil sample within a reference range centered on the salt cavity. If leakage occurs with the natural gas in the salt cavity, a third analytical sub-result is distinguished from the second analytical value, and a third comparison result is obtained after comparison. And whether the natural gas in the salt cavity leaks can be judged according to the third comparison result.
And step 2054, taking at least one of the first comparison result, the second comparison result and the third comparison result as a comparison result.
When it needs to be explained, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further determine whether the natural gas leaks by using at least one of the first comparison result, the second comparison result, and the third comparison result as the comparison result. The first comparison result, the second comparison result and the third comparison result may also be combined, that is, whether the natural gas leaks or not may be determined according to the first comparison result, the second comparison result and the third comparison result.
And step 206, judging whether the underground gas storage is leaked or not according to the comparison result.
Optionally, the determining whether the underground gas storage is leaked according to the comparison result includes:
and judging that the underground gas storage is leaked when the first analysis sub result is greater than the first analysis value, the second analysis sub result is greater than the second analysis value and/or the third analysis sub result is greater than the second analysis value.
Optionally, the method further comprises: and judging the leakage degree of the underground gas storage according to the values of the first comparison result, the second comparison result and/or the third comparison result.
The greater the value of the first comparison result, the second comparison result, and/or the third comparison result, the greater the extent of leakage from the underground reservoir.
When the comparison result shows a difference value, the content of the tracer is reduced, the tracer leaks along with the leaked natural gas, and at the moment, the natural gas can be judged to leak.
In the example, when the difference of the comparison results is that the monitored content of the tracer exceeds 1.0 nanoliter/cubic meter, the underground gas storage is indicated to have string storage or leakage; and if the difference of the comparison results is that the content of the tracer is lower than 1.0 nanoliter/cubic meter, the tracer is not detected, and the underground gas storage is not subjected to detectable string storage or leakage.
The methods provided in the examples of the present application will be further illustrated by the following optional examples.
Referring to fig. 3, this embodiment provides two adjacent salt chambers for illustration, a first salt chamber 109 into which the tracer is injected, and a second salt chamber 110 adjacent to the first salt chamber into which the tracer is injected, with sampling points set according to the direction of possible gas leakage in the salt chamber 6. Referring to fig. 2, it can be seen that there is a fault 106 between the salt chamber 6 and the surface, and the following sampling points are taken according to the direction of possible leakage of natural gas, such as the possible leakage direction 107 of gas in the production casing and the possible leakage direction 108 of gas in the salt chamber shown in fig. 2.
