Natural gas hydrates, also known as "combustible ice," are a type of ice-like crystalline material formed from water molecules and natural gas molecules under specific low temperature, high pressure conditions.

At present, various mining methods are internationally implemented to perform natural gas hydrate test mining, wherein a depressurization method is widely applied due to the characteristics of low cost and high efficiency, and the pressure of a natural gas hydrate reservoir is reduced to enable the reservoir pressure to be below the natural gas hydrate phase equilibrium pressure so as to promote the decomposition of the natural gas hydrate, thereby realizing the mining of the natural gas hydrate. However, the conventional natural gas hydrate exploitation method at present has the defects of low energy exploitation rate and high energy consumption of a reservoir, and how to improve the exploitation level of the natural gas hydrate and realize the commercial exploitation of the natural gas hydrate becomes a hot topic of concern in various countries.

At present, the conventional depressurization exploitation method cannot effectively adjust the different situations of different hydrate reservoirs, so that the exploitation rate of the hydrate reservoirs is low, and how to efficiently exploit the characteristics of the different hydrate reservoirs improves the exploitation rate of the hydrate reservoirs in the south China sea, realizes the breakthrough of the energy production level of the natural gas hydrate, and is a difficult problem to be solved in the current commercial exploitation of the hydrate.

In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may be practiced otherwise than as described herein; it will be apparent that the embodiments in the specification are only some, but not all, embodiments of the invention.
The marine natural gas hydrate reservoir production device and the marine natural gas hydrate reservoir production method are described in detail by specific examples:

The first pressure pump 11 is arranged at one end of the first horizontal exploitation well 1 close to the conveying pipeline, the second pressure pump 21 is arranged at one end of the second horizontal exploitation well 2 close to the conveying pipeline, and the third pressure pump 31 is arranged at one end of the third horizontal exploitation well 3 close to the conveying pipeline. A plurality of wellbores 5 are arranged on the bodies of the first horizontal production well 1, the second horizontal production well 2 and the third horizontal production well 3.
The hydrate layer, the mixed layer and the gaseous hydrocarbon layer are distributed along the surface depth in sequence. Of course, there is also an overburden layer over the hydrate layer. In this embodiment, a monitoring device may be disposed on the upper soil layer to monitor the change condition of the upper soil layer, so as to prevent collapse and deformation. Specifically, the fiber bragg grating local displacement meter, the high-precision stress-strain sensor and the large-range settlement meter can be arranged on the upper surface of the upper soil layer, and the fiber bragg grating local displacement meter and the high-precision stress-strain sensor can continuously and effectively detect micro deformation and small deformation of the soil body and are used for detecting deformation and settlement conditions of the upper soil layer. The large-range settlement gauge can effectively collect large deformation of stratum and has an alarm function.
The above-mentioned horizontal directions of the first horizontal production well 1, the second horizontal production well 2 and the third horizontal production well 3 mean that the extending directions of the production wells are parallel to the sea level. Of course, it will be appreciated that a plurality of first horizontal production wells 1 may be provided in the hydrate layer, a plurality of second horizontal production wells 2 may be provided in the mixed layer, and a plurality of third horizontal production wells 3 may also be provided in the gaseous hydrocarbon layer, the plurality of horizontal wells being sequentially spaced apart along the depth of the earth surface. The first pressure pump 11 is arranged at one end, close to the conveying pipeline, of the first horizontal production well 1, the pressure in the production well can be reduced by adjusting the pressure pump, so that natural gas around the well body in the hydrate layer enters the production well through a plurality of wellbores 5 on the well body under the action of pressure difference, and the natural gas in the well is conveyed to the offshore drilling platform 4 through the conveying pipeline. The plurality of wellbores 5 may be evenly distributed along the circumference of the well body. Likewise, the second horizontal production well 2 in the mixed layer and the third horizontal production well 3 in the gaseous hydrocarbon layer can also produce natural gas by the same control method. In this embodiment, the first, second and third horizontal production wells 1, 2 and 3 may have the same structure, and the first, second and third pressure pumps 11, 21 and 31 may also have the same structure. Of course, it will be appreciated that the first pressure pump 11, the second pressure pump 21, and the third pressure pump 31 may be adjusted according to the characteristics of different reservoirs, so that the pressures in the first horizontal production well 1, the second horizontal production well 2, and the third horizontal production well 3 are different, so long as the natural gas can be collected to the greatest extent.
The plurality of conveying pipelines are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the first horizontal production well 1, the second horizontal production well 2 and the third horizontal production well 3. That is, the first, second and third horizontal recovery wells 1, 2 and 3 are connected to the offshore drilling platform 4 through different transfer pipes, respectively, and a plurality of storage devices may be provided in the offshore drilling platform 4 for collecting natural gas in the hydrate layer, the mixed layer and the gaseous hydrocarbon layer, respectively. The pressure pump is arranged in the production well, and the starting and stopping of the horizontal production well can be controlled by adjusting the pressure, and the pressure in the well is adjusted. Furthermore, sand control screens can be additionally arranged in the wellbores 5 on each horizontal well, so that sand and stones in the reservoir can be prevented from entering the conveying pipeline to cause blockage.
When the production is required, a pressure pump on the horizontal production well is started, the pressure in the production well is regulated to be lower than the pressure in the reservoir, so that the natural gas in the reservoir enters the production well through the well hole 5 under the action of the pressure difference, and then the natural gas is conveyed to the offshore drilling platform 4 through a conveying pipeline.
According to the ocean natural gas hydrate reservoir layer production device and method, the first horizontal production well 1 is arranged in the hydrate layer, the second horizontal production well 2 is arranged in the mixed layer, and the third horizontal production well 3 is arranged in the gaseous hydrocarbon layer, so that natural gas in reservoirs with three different depths can be produced respectively. Specifically, the first horizontal production well 1, the second horizontal production well 2 and the third horizontal production well 3 are sequentially arranged at intervals along the surface depth, so that different reservoirs can not affect each other during production. In the exploitation process, a first horizontal exploitation well 1, a second horizontal exploitation well 2 and a third horizontal exploitation well 3 are respectively communicated with an offshore drilling platform 4 through a conveying pipeline, a first pressure pump 11 is arranged at one end, close to the conveying pipeline, of the first horizontal exploitation well 1, a second pressure pump 21 is arranged at one end, close to the conveying pipeline, of the second horizontal exploitation well 2, and a third pressure pump 31 is arranged at one end, close to the conveying pipeline, of the third horizontal exploitation well 3; a plurality of wellbores 5 are arranged on the bodies of the first horizontal production well 1, the second horizontal production well 2 and the third horizontal production well 3. Specifically, during exploitation, the pressure in the horizontal exploitation well is reduced by adjusting the pressure pumps on different horizontal exploitation wells, so that natural gas in a reservoir enters the exploitation well through the well holes on the surface of the exploitation well under the action of pressure difference, and then the natural gas in different exploitation wells is conveyed to the offshore drilling platform 4 for collection and utilization through conveying pipelines communicated with the exploitation well. Therefore, different exploitation wells are respectively arranged for different reservoirs so as to adapt to different exploitation methods, and further, the exploitation efficiency of natural gas in the reservoirs is improved.
As shown in fig. 1 to 3, a first horizontal auxiliary well 12 is provided at a lower interval of the first horizontal production well 1, and a second horizontal auxiliary well 22 is provided at a lower interval of the second horizontal production well 2. The first horizontal auxiliary well 12 and the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 are in communication with the offshore auxiliary platform 6 via auxiliary transfer pipes, respectively. A plurality of wellbores 5 are provided in the body of each of the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 and the second horizontal auxiliary well 22. The offshore auxiliary platform 6 is provided with a CO2 storage device 61, a fracturing fluid storage device 62 and a heat storage material storage device 63, the CO2 storage device 61 is communicated with the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 through an auxiliary conveying pipeline, the fracturing fluid storage device 62 and the heat storage material storage device 63 are respectively communicated with the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 through auxiliary conveying pipelines, and a plurality of fracturing filling nozzles 222 are further arranged on the well body of the second horizontal auxiliary well 22.
The first horizontal auxiliary well 12 is disposed in the hydrate layer and the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 is disposed in the mixed layer. The first horizontal auxiliary well 12 and the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 may be the same structure.
During the production process, when the first horizontal production well 1 is unable to continue producing natural gas or producing less natural gas, the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 may be activated to assist in continuing production. Specifically, the CO2 storage 61 on the offshore auxiliary platform 6 is opened, liquid CO2 is conveyed into the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 through the auxiliary conveying pipeline, then liquid CO2 is injected into the hydrate layer through the well hole 5 on the first horizontal auxiliary well 12, so that the pores of the hydrate layer are filled with CO2, then the pressure in the hydrate layer is regulated, specifically, a displacement reaction can be carried out between natural gas and CO2 in the hydrate layer under a set pressure condition by starting the pressure pump, and at the moment, natural gas can be continuously collected by regulating the pressure in the first horizontal production well 1.
Further, the CO2 hydrate reservoir formed after the replacement is completed has higher strength, namely a stable CO2 hydrate safety cover layer is formed, the formed safety cover layer can effectively bear the pressure of an overburden layer and a sea water layer, the phenomenon that the reservoir is settled or even collapses during subsequent exploitation is prevented, the infiltration of seawater above can be effectively reduced, the lower pore pressure of the reservoir is maintained, the gas production period during subsequent reservoir exploitation is prolonged, and the exploitation efficiency of the subsequent reservoir is improved.
It will be appreciated that the production method of the second horizontal production well 2 may be the same as that of the first horizontal production well 1, by adjusting the pressure pump on the well to create a pressure differential to force natural gas into the well and then collecting it through the transfer tubing to the offshore drilling platform 4. Specifically, the fracturing fluid storage 62 on the offshore assistance platform 6 is first opened, high pressure fracturing fluid is delivered to the second horizontal assistance well 22 through the assistance delivery conduit, and then delivered into the mixed layer through the frac fill jets 222 on the second horizontal assistance well 22. It will be appreciated that the frac fill ports 222 include a fracturing fluid port and a proppant port that when high pressure fracturing fluid is ejected through the fracturing fluid port causes the mixed layer to fracture to form a fracture. The proppants are then ejected through the proppant jets so that the fractures in the mixed layer are supported and thus more stable. Of course, it will be appreciated that a proppant storage device may be provided on the offshore auxiliary platform 6, with proppant being delivered into the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 via an auxiliary delivery conduit.
The fracturing fluid can be high-concentration concentrated seawater with the salinity of 8% -12%, can be extracted by evaporating and concentrating the seawater in the fracturing fluid storage device 62, and contains abundant ions, so that the secondary generation of hydrate can be inhibited.
The propping agent can be high-quality bauxite formed by sintering ceramics, and can enter cracks of the mixed layer along with high-pressure fracturing fluid, so that the cracks of fracturing can be supported, and the stability of the mixed layer is maintained.
After the fracturing is completed, the heat storage materials in the heat storage material storage device 63 on the offshore auxiliary platform 6 are conveyed into the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 through the auxiliary conveying pipeline, and then enter the mixed layer through the well holes 5 on the surface of the second horizontal auxiliary well 22. The pressure of the mixed layer is regulated, and the pressure can be specifically regulated through a pressure pump, so that the internal structure of the heat storage material is changed under the action of the pressure, heat is released, and the temperature of the mixed layer is increased. According to the phase equilibrium curve of the natural gas hydrate, when the pressure and temperature reach the natural gas hydrate phase equilibrium point, the natural gas hydrate starts to decompose, and thus the collection of natural gas can be started through the second horizontal production well 2. Thereby realizing the combined exploitation of depressurization and heat injection on the basis of reservoir transformation and effectively improving the gas production efficiency.
In some embodiments, the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 is provided with a fourth pressure pump 121 at an end thereof adjacent to the auxiliary transfer pipe, and the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 is provided with a fifth pressure pump 221 at an end thereof adjacent to the auxiliary transfer pipe.
The fourth pressure pump 121 and the fifth pressure pump 221 may adjust the pressure in the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 and the second horizontal auxiliary well 22, respectively. The pressure can be regulated by the fourth pressure pump 121 when the first horizontal production well 1 is damaged, whereby the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 is used instead of the first horizontal production well 1. Likewise, a second horizontal auxiliary well 22 may be used in place of the second horizontal production well 2.
Further, the surface of the well body of the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 is also provided with a hydraulic sensor 223, a microseismic system 224 and an acoustic wave system 225.
The hydraulic sensors 223 may be uniformly distributed on the outer surface of the fracturing filling nozzle 222 of the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 to monitor the hydraulic pressure change of the mixed layer during fracturing. The microseismic system 224 and the sonic system 225 may be placed on the exterior surface of the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 to monitor fracture development and propagation within the mixed layer during fracturing.
Further, a flowmeter 13 is arranged at the joint of the first horizontal production well 1 and the conveying pipeline.
The flow meter 13 may measure and record the amount of natural gas flow collected in the first horizontal production well 1 to determine if the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 needs to be activated. Of course, it will be appreciated that a flow meter 13 may be provided at the junction of the second horizontal production well 2 and the transfer conduit and a flow meter 13 may be provided at the junction of the third horizontal production well 3 and the transfer conduit to monitor the collection of natural gas within each horizontal production well.
In other embodiments, the surface of the well body of the first horizontal production well 1 is further provided with a temperature measuring instrument 14, a laser radar 15 and a pressure box 16, and the temperature measuring instrument 14, the laser radar 15 and the pressure box 16 are arranged at intervals. It will be appreciated, of course, that the thermometer 14, lidar 15 and pressure cell 16 may also be provided on the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 to monitor changes in the hydrate reservoir, although it may be used to replace the first horizontal production well 1 in the event of a failure of the first horizontal production well 1.
The temperature measuring instrument 14 adopts a wireless radio frequency technology as a communication mode, so that the temperature of each hydrate reservoir can be monitored more efficiently, and the temperature in the reservoir can be controlled more accurately to reach the phase equilibrium curve of natural gas. The lidar 15 is used to accurately obtain the deformation of the first horizontal production well 1 using laser scanning techniques. The pressure cell 16 may be used to determine the stress situation of the first horizontal production well 1. Thereby preventing the first horizontal production well 1 from being deformed and broken, and affecting the collection of natural gas. Of course, it will be appreciated that the above-described thermo detector 14, laser radar 15 and pressure cell 16 may be provided in each of the second horizontal production well 2, third horizontal production well 3, first horizontal auxiliary well 12 and second horizontal auxiliary well 22.
Further, the marine natural gas hydrate reservoir production device provided by the invention further comprises a data collection device 7.
The data collection device 7 may be a computer or other mobile terminal, as long as it can perform the functions of data collection and processing. The pressure and temperature of each reservoir can be monitored by the staff through the data collecting device 7, and according to the phase equilibrium curve of the natural gas hydrate, when the pressure and temperature reach the phase equilibrium point of the natural gas hydrate, the natural gas hydrate starts to decompose, and at the moment, each horizontal production well collects natural gas. Of course, the data collecting device 7 can also collect data transmitted by sensors such as a microseismic system, an acoustic system, a flowmeter and the like, so that changes of each horizontal well and each reservoir are monitored in real time, and construction safety is improved.
Further, a valve 8 is arranged on the conveying pipeline.
The operator can choose to turn on or off the collection of natural gas by opening or closing the valve 8 on the transfer line. The collection of natural gas from different reservoirs can also be selected by opening or closing valves 8 on the different transport lines. Of course, it is understood that the valve 8 may also be provided on the auxiliary conveying conduit.
The invention also provides a combined production method of the marine natural gas hydrate storage and production device, which comprises the marine natural gas hydrate storage and production device, wherein the production method of the hydrate layer is decompression and displacement combined production. The mining method of the mixed layer is depressurization and heat injection combined mining. The method of producing the gaseous hydrocarbon layer is a direct depressurization method. The hydrate layer, the mixed layer and the gaseous hydrocarbon layer may be produced sequentially.
The depressurization and displacement combined production refers to depressurization production of natural gas by the first horizontal production well 1 in the hydrate layer, and liquid CO2 released in the first horizontal auxiliary well 12 and the natural gas undergo a displacement reaction so as to decompose more natural gas, thereby improving the production efficiency.
The depressurization and heat injection combined exploitation refers to depressurization exploitation of natural gas by the second horizontal exploitation well 2 in the mixed layer, the heat storage material released in the second horizontal auxiliary well 22 changes its internal structure under the action of pressure to release heat, and more natural gas is decomposed when the pressure and the temperature reach the phase equilibrium curve of the natural gas, so that the exploitation efficiency is further improved.
The above-described direct depressurization method refers to the collection of natural gas directly from the third horizontal recovery well 3 in the gaseous hydrocarbon layer by adjusting the third pressure pump 31.
In this embodiment, the hydrate layer, the mixed layer, and the gaseous hydrocarbon layer may be produced sequentially. I.e. the hydrate layer is mined first, then the mixed layer is mined, and finally the gaseous hydrocarbon layer is mined. Of course, it is also possible to first produce the hydrate layer and then produce the mixed layer and the gaseous hydrocarbon layer simultaneously.
