TRANSIENT WELL TEST MODEL FOR THE WELL WITH GAS AND WATER DISTRIBUTED IN COALBED

煤层气是一种高效清洁的非常规天然气资源,其开采过程是一个排水降压采气的过程. 由于煤层气主要是以吸附态的形式存在于煤层中,当煤层压力降低到临界解吸压力以下时煤层气从煤层中解吸出来并与水一起采出,因此煤层中流体是气水两相分布的. 本文根据煤层气藏排采过程中的解吸特征,通过考虑气水两相分布的渗透率关系,提出了一种与解吸区域大小相关的煤层气井不稳定试井模型. 该模型较好地描述了煤层气排采过程中煤层内气水的流动状态,采用分区模式对气水两相进行描述. 通过有限体积方法求解了所建立的试井模型,计算得到了煤层气井气水两相分布不稳定试井理论曲线,分析了煤层气解吸系数、解吸复合半径、气水饱和度分布等对试井理论曲线的影响.

煤层气在非饱和水流阶段的非定常渗流摄动解

煤层甲烷由煤层的割理裂隙系统流入生产井一般经历：单相水流、非饱和流和气、水两相饱和流三个阶段，在非饱和流阶段，储层压力降至临界解吸压力之后，储存在煤基质中的吸附气体少量被解吸出来形成互不连续的气泡并阻止水的流动，含气量尚未达到饱和程度。同时煤层甲烷运移包含渗流场、变形场和应力场的动态耦合过程。本文考虑渗流过程中水-气两相不溶混流体与固体耦合作用，建立了非饱和水流阶段非定常渗流问题的流固耦合数学模型，对该强非线性一维数学模型采用摄动法和积分变换法进行解析求解，并讨论了其压力动态特性，分析了压力随饱和度S及时间t变化的规律和气相及耦合作用的影响，这些研究对煤层气、石油和天然气的开采等地下工程领域具有一定的指导意义。     

低渗透煤层气藏中气-水两相不稳定渗流动态分析

针对低渗透煤层渗流问题,考虑启动压力梯度及其引起的动边界和动边界内吸附气解吸作用的渗流模型研究目前仅限于单相流,而更符合实际的气-水两相渗流动边界模型未见报道.本文综合考虑了煤层吸附气的解吸作用、气-水两相渗流、非达西渗流、地层应力敏感等影响因素,进行了低渗透煤层的气-水两相渗流模型研究.采用了试井技术中的"分相处理"方法,修正了两相渗流的综合压缩系数和流度,并基于含气饱和度呈线性递减分布的假设,建立了煤层气藏的气-水两相渗流耦合模型.该数学模型不仅可以描述由于低渗透煤层中渗流存在启动压力梯度而产生的可表征煤层有效动用范围随时间变化的移动边界,还可以描述煤层有效动用范围内吸附气的解吸现象以及吸附气解吸作用所引起的煤层含气饱和度的上升;为了提高模型精度,控制方程还保留了二次压力梯度项.采用了稳定的全隐式有限差分方法进行了模型的数值求解,并验证了数值计算方法的正确性,获得了模型关于瞬时井底压力与压力导数响应的双对数特征曲线,由此分析了各渗流参数的敏感性影响.本文研究结果可为低渗透煤层气藏开发的气-水两相流试井技术提供渗流力学的理论基础.

分形煤层气藏数值模拟研究——Douglas-Jones预估-校正法的应用

传统的煤层气动力学模型多建立在欧几里得基础上,难以描述煤层气孔隙结构的复杂性和形状的不规则性。为此,以分形理论为基础,通过引入煤层基质和裂缝的分形维数来刻画煤层气孔隙结构的复杂性和吸附特性,建立了双重分形介质渗流模型,采用Douglas-Jones预估-校正法对非线性方程组进行离散,获得了无限大地层和有限地层定产量生产时拟稳态吸附模型的差分方程,求得数值解。结果表明,Douglas-Jones预估-校正法可以有效解决这类非线性模型的求解问题,获得无限大地层定产量生产时变形双重分形介质模型的数值解;分析各种分形参数下的煤层压力动态,做出了典型压力曲线图。对无限大地层,初期分形维数对压力影响不大,后期分形维数越小,压力越高。对有限地层,初期分形维数的影响明显,且分形维数越大,压力越低。压力随分形指数的减小量呈现先增大后减小的趋势,在末期压力平稳趋向同一值。

多层煤层气藏合采特征及物理模拟实验方法研究

多层合采是多层煤层气藏的有效开采方式之一,目前关于多层煤层气藏合采的实验研究较少。本文通过分析煤层气产气机理、多层煤层气藏储层特征和合采产气特征,提出了一种多层煤层气藏合采实验模拟方法。合采储层通过储层模拟系统实现,可模拟各储层的孔隙度、渗透率、储层压力、地应力等特性。由于层间距的存在,合采过程中各储层的实际井底压力是不相同的,在实验过程中各储层的井底压力通过井底压力模拟系统实现。为分析合采效果,提出了储层压降干扰率和产气量干扰率计算公式。开展了不同层间距条件下的多层煤层气藏合采模拟实验,结果显示模拟层间距的改变会通过改变各储层初次同时产气时的储层压力和生产压差来影响层间干扰程度;合采2h,生产压差较小的模拟储层(2#模拟储层)受到的干扰程度大于生产压差较大的模拟储层(1#模拟除储层),且2#模拟层的生产压差越小其受到的干扰程度越大。本文研究成果可为多层煤层气藏合采层位优选研究和影响因素研究提供参考。     

Modeling of Coal Fine Migration During CBM Production in High-Rank Coal

During CBM (coalbed methane) production, the interaction of coal fracture surface with water flow commonly generates and starts coal fine flow. Part of flowing coal fines deposit in coal fracture system due to water production reduction and methane production increase. The fine sedimentation results in the reduction of coal permeability and well productivity. Despite the increasing awareness of the importance of fine migration, limited research has been carried out on the flow model of coal fine coupled with water and gas. In this paper, a flow model of coal fine is established coupled with water and gas flow, taking coal fine generation, migration and sedimentation process into consideration. Then, case simulations are conducted to illustrate effects of water production schedule, permeability performance and gas content on production performance in flow model. The simulation results indicate that methane rate with the lowest initial water rate is observed to have the highest production in late production period. This is mainly due to the reason that the low water flow cannot generate and start the flow of coal fine. Further, the case with high initial water production has faster gas and water flow rate, thus higher coal fine generation rates, which can improve well productivity at earlier production period. As water production declines quickly, both permeability and production performance decrease, which leads to the loss of well productivity. Meanwhile, higher gas content will lead to a faster water production decline at late production period. This indicates that a portion of coal fines plugged in the fracture as water production deceases and the CBM reservoir with high gas content should not adopt a high initial water production schedule.     

Relative Permeability of Gas for Unconventional Reservoirs

Relative permeability of gas gains great significance in exploring unconventional gas. This paper developed a universal relative permeability model of gas, which is applicable for unconventional gas reservoirs such as coal, tight sandstone and shale. The model consists of the absolute relative permeability of gas and the gas slippage permeability. In the proposed model, the effects of water saturation and mean pore pressure on gas slippage permeability are taken into account. Subsequently, the evaluation of the model with existing model is done and then the validation of the model is made with data of tight sandstones, coals and shales from published literatures. The modeling results illustrate that a strong power-law relationship between relative permeability of gas and water saturation and the contribution of gas slippage permeability to relative permeability is determined by water saturation and mean pore pressure simultaneously. Furthermore, a sensitivity analysis of the impact of the parameters in the model is conducted and their effects are discussed.     

Experimental Method to Simulate Coal Fines Migration and Coal Fines Aggregation Prevention in the Hydraulic Fracture

A simple and effective experimental method is proposed to simulate coal fines migration through the proppant pack; such migration inevitably occurs during the process of fracturing fluid flowback or dewatering and gas production in coalbed methane (CBM) reservoirs. The damage to conductivity caused by coal fines migration in the pack and the factors affecting such migration are analyzed. A dispersion agent of coal fines applicable to hydraulic fracturing in CBM is optimized, consequently solving the problem of coal fines aggregation and retention in the proppant pack. Discharging coal fines with water or water-based fracturing fluid from the proppant pack can be difficult because of the adsorption and hydrophobicity of coal fines. Thus, coal fines are likely to aggregate and be retained in the proppant pack, thereby resulting in pore throat plugging, which causes serious damage to fracture conductivity. Two percent coal fines can reduce propped fracture conductivity by 24.4 %. The mobility and retention of coal fines in the proppant pack are affected by proppant size, proppant type, flowback rate, and coal fines property. When flowback rate exceeds the critical value, coal fines can be discharged from the pack, consequently reducing damage to propped fracture conductivity. More importantly, the steady discharging of coal fines requires steady dewatering and gas production to avoid flow shock, which causes pressure disturbance to drive coal fines in a remote formation. The optimized dispersant FSJ-02 employed in this paper can effectively change the wettability and surface potential of coal fines to improve their suspension and dispersion in water-based fracturing fluid. The recovery rate of coal fines increased by 31.5 %, whereas conductivity increased by 13.3 %.     

Characteristics of Seepage and Diffusion in Gas Drainage and Its Application for Enhancing the gas utilization rate

Although gas drainage technology has greatly developed, gas concentration and utilization rates are still very low, resulting in substantial quantities of low concentration gas emissions in coal mine. To study the roles of suction pressure on gas drainage, a mathematical model is developed in this study for coupled gas migration and coal deformation based on a dual-porosity medium. The simulation results reveal the initial gas production is mainly contributed by the seepage in the fracture, and then the dominating factor rapidly transitions to diffusion which provides relatively stable gas production in most drainage time. In addition, the increase in gas production is tiny while the gas concentration clearly decreases because of air leakage as the suction pressure increases. Therefore, a concentration-based suction pressure regulating method is proposed to extend the time period of effective gas drainage and increase the gas utilization rate through adjusting the suction pressure of the bedding borehole. Field tests were performed to constrain the gas drainage process under different suction pressures, and the results gained verify the effectiveness and applicability of this method. This study proves that the concentration-based suction pressure regulating method may be a promising technology to realize safe, economical and efficient underground gas drainage in coal mines in the future.

Ellipsoidal Oscillations of a Gas Bubble with Periodic Variation of the Surrounding Fluid Pressure

Ellipsoidal linear and nonlinear oscillations of a gas bubble under harmonic variation of the surrounding fluid pressure are studied. The system is considered under conditions in which periodic sonoluminescence of the individual bubble in a standing acoustic wave is observable. A mathematical model of the bubble dynamics is suggested; in this model, the variation of the gas/fluid interface shape is described correct to the square of the amplitude of the deformation of the spherical shape of the bubble. The character of the air bubble oscillations in water is investigated in relation to the initial bubble radius and the fluid pressure variation amplitude. It is shown that nonspherical oscillations of limited amplitude can occur outside the range of linearly stable spherical oscillations. In this case, both oscillations with a period equal to one or two periods of the fluid pressure variation and aperiodic oscillations can be observed.
