本发明涉及一种天然气水合物的开采技术,具体是涉及一种天然气水合物原位加热排采装置及其排采方法。The invention relates to a natural gas hydrate mining technology, in particular to a natural gas hydrate in-situ heating and mining device and a mining method thereof.
背景技术Background technique
天然气水合物是由水分子和充填其中的客体分子形成的包络型化合物,在低温、高压环境下以晶体形式存在。自然界中的天然气水合物主要以甲烷水合物为主,赋存于低温高压环境条件的永久冻土区和深海沉积物中,1单位体积的甲烷水合物分解可产生150-180标准体积的甲烷气体和0.8标准体积的水,具有储量巨大、分布广泛、埋藏深度浅、能量密度高的优点,据估计,地球上以天然气水合物形式储藏的有机碳占全球总有机碳的53%,是煤、石油、天然气三种化石燃料总碳量的2倍。因此,天然气水合物被认为是21世纪的理想清洁替代能源,具有良好的应用前景。Natural gas hydrates are envelope compounds formed by water molecules and guest molecules filled therein, and exist in the form of crystals under low temperature and high pressure environments. Natural gas hydrates in nature are mainly methane hydrates, which exist in permafrost areas and deep-sea sediments under low temperature and high pressure environmental conditions. The decomposition of 1 unit volume of methane hydrate can produce 150-180 standard volumes of methane gas and 0.8 standard volumes of water. It has the advantages of huge reserves, wide distribution, shallow burial depth, and high energy density. It is estimated that the organic carbon stored in the form of natural gas hydrates on the earth accounts for 53% of the total organic carbon in the world, which is twice the total carbon content of the three fossil fuels of coal, oil, and natural gas. Therefore, natural gas hydrates are considered to be an ideal clean alternative energy source in the 21st century and have good application prospects.
由于天然气水合物存在固液气三种相态的变化,与常规的石油天然气相比存在较大的开采难度,从2002年开始,在加拿大北极地区马利克(Mallik)站位开展的天然气水合物试采及研究,证实了通过加热、降压均可实现将天然气水合物分解成气态及液态进行流动,从而拉开了天然气水合物高效开采的研究序幕。目前国际上普遍认可的天然气水合物开采方法主要有:降压法、热激法、二氧化碳置换法以及这些方法的组合应用,其开采手段主要是参考常规的油气开采工艺,首先通过钻井建立井筒直达天然气水合物的储层,然后采用合适的物理化学手段,改变储层的温度或者压力等热力学条件,破坏水合物的结合环境,促进天然气水合物分解为水和天然气,最后将分解后的天然气和水收集、输送至地面,从而实现天然气水合物的开采。Since natural gas hydrates have three phase changes of solid, liquid and gas, they are more difficult to exploit than conventional oil and natural gas. Since 2002, the trial production and research of natural gas hydrates carried out at Mallik Station in the Canadian Arctic have confirmed that natural gas hydrates can be decomposed into gas and liquid states for flow by heating and depressurization, thus opening the prelude to the research on efficient exploitation of natural gas hydrates. At present, the main methods of natural gas hydrate exploitation generally recognized internationally are: depressurization method, thermal shock method, carbon dioxide replacement method and the combined application of these methods. The exploitation means mainly refer to the conventional oil and gas exploitation process. First, a wellbore is established by drilling to directly reach the reservoir of natural gas hydrates, and then appropriate physical and chemical means are used to change the thermodynamic conditions such as temperature or pressure of the reservoir, destroy the binding environment of hydrates, promote the decomposition of natural gas hydrates into water and natural gas, and finally collect and transport the decomposed natural gas and water to the ground, so as to realize the exploitation of natural gas hydrates.
近30年以来,各国科学家对天然气水合物的开发技术已经进行了比较系统的实验室实验和小规模的现场开采实验,验证了各种天然气水合物的开采技术和方法,主要开采机理还是通过降低天然气水合物储层的压力至热力学平衡线之下,使得天然气水合物分解,但天然气水合物分解过程需要吸收大量的热,导致储层的温度随之降低,当温度降到一定程度时,又反过来影响天然气水合物的相平衡,使得储层孔隙内自由水结冰和水合物二次生成,堵塞孔隙通道,降低储层的渗透率,因此,维持并提高储层的温度,对天然气水合物的开采有着非常重要的意义。Over the past 30 years, scientists from various countries have conducted relatively systematic laboratory experiments and small-scale field mining experiments on the development technology of natural gas hydrates, and verified various natural gas hydrate mining technologies and methods. The main mining mechanism is to reduce the pressure of the natural gas hydrate reservoir to below the thermodynamic equilibrium line to decompose the natural gas hydrate. However, the decomposition process of natural gas hydrates requires the absorption of a large amount of heat, causing the temperature of the reservoir to decrease. When the temperature drops to a certain level, it in turn affects the phase equilibrium of the natural gas hydrate, causing the free water in the reservoir pores to freeze and hydrates to form secondary, blocking the pore channels and reducing the permeability of the reservoir. Therefore, maintaining and increasing the temperature of the reservoir is of great significance to the mining of natural gas hydrates.
国家知识产权局公开了公开号为CN1920251B的专利文献,它具体公开了以下内容:本发明采取了以下的技术方案:1)构筑开采井及集气井。首先采用深水钻井技术领域的现有技术在水合物成矿区构筑开采井及集气井,并构筑开采井与集气井之间的连接通道;开采井及集气井贯穿至水合物储层底部。2)天然气水合物分解。向水合物储层注入水合物分解促进剂,将天然气水合物分解为天然气和水,同时在安装于开采井下的催化氧化燃烧器中采用氧化剂原位催化氧化燃烧燃料加热载热流体,然后将载热流体泵入水合物储层供给天然气水合物分解所需的热能,将催化氧化燃烧所产生的CO2气体注入水合物储层,使其形成CO2水合物填充甲烷水合物开采后留下的空隙,CO2水合物生成所释放的热量传递给水合物分解促进剂,用于天然气水合物的分解,CO2水合物形成吸收分解促进剂中的水份,提高了水合物分解促进剂的浓度。3)分解后的天然气导出。通过天然气导出管道将分解后的天然气收集至海面上的分离、储气装置。The State Intellectual Property Office has published a patent document with a publication number of CN1920251B, which specifically discloses the following: The present invention adopts the following technical solutions: 1) Constructing mining wells and gas collection wells. First, the existing technology in the field of deep-water drilling technology is used to construct mining wells and gas collection wells in the hydrate mineralization area, and a connecting channel between the mining wells and the gas collection wells is constructed; the mining wells and the gas collection wells penetrate to the bottom of the hydrate reservoir. 2) Decomposition of natural gas hydrates. A hydrate decomposition promoter is injected into the hydrate reservoir to decompose the natural gas hydrate into natural gas and water. At the same time, an oxidant is used in situ in the catalytic oxidation burner installed under the mining well to catalytically oxidize and burn fuel to heat the heat-carrying fluid, and then the heat-carrying fluid is pumped into the hydrate reservoir to supply the heat energy required for the decomposition of natural gas hydrates. The CO2 gas generated by the catalytic oxidation combustion is injected into the hydrate reservoir to form CO2 hydrates to fill the gaps left after the methane hydrate is mined. The heat released by the formation of CO2 hydrates is transferred to the hydrate decomposition promoter for the decomposition of natural gas hydrates. The CO2 hydrate formation absorbs the water in the decomposition promoter, thereby increasing the concentration of the hydrate decomposition promoter. 3) Decomposed natural gas is exported. The decomposed natural gas is collected through a natural gas export pipeline and sent to a separation and gas storage device on the sea surface.
所述步骤(2)天然气水合物分解可以具体细化为以下步骤:(1)催化氧化燃烧器采用电加热点火预热;(2)向安装于开采井中的催化氧化燃烧器输送燃料及氧化剂,燃料及氧化剂在预热器中预热;(3)在催化剂作用下,燃料在井下催化氧化燃烧器中被氧化剂催化氧化,放出热量加热载热流体;(4)向天然气水合物储层注入水合物分解促进剂,将天然气水合物分解为天然气和水;(5)载热流体输送至水合物储层加热水合物分解促进剂及天然气水合物储层,促进天然气水合物的分解;(6)将催化氧化燃烧产物输送至水合物储层,控制水合物储层温度低于CO2水合物稳定温度,高于CH4水合物稳定温度;(7)催化氧化燃烧产物中的CO2在水合物储层形成CO2水合物,放出水合物生成热加热水合物分解促进剂;(8)CO2水合物形成吸收水合物分解促进剂中的水份,水合物分解促进剂浓度升高,对天然气水合物的分解速率加快。The step (2) of decomposing natural gas hydrates can be specifically divided into the following steps: (1) preheating the catalytic oxidation burner by electric heating; (2) delivering fuel and oxidant to the catalytic oxidation burner installed in the production well, and preheating the fuel and oxidant in the preheater; (3) under the action of the catalyst, the fuel is catalytically oxidized by the oxidant in the downhole catalytic oxidation burner, and heat is released to heat the heat-carrying fluid; (4) injecting a hydrate decomposition promoter into the natural gas hydrate reservoir to decompose the natural gas hydrate into natural gas and water; (5) delivering the heat-carrying fluid to the hydrate reservoir for heating Hydrate decomposition promoter and natural gas hydrate reservoir, promoting the decomposition of natural gas hydrate; (6) transporting the catalytic oxidation combustion products to the hydrate reservoir, controlling the hydrate reservoir temperature to be lower than the CO2 hydrate stability temperature and higher than the CH4 hydrate stability temperature; (7) the CO2 in the catalytic oxidation combustion products forms CO2 hydrate in the hydrate reservoir, releasing the hydrate formation heat to heat the hydrate decomposition promoter; (8) the CO2 hydrate formation absorbs the water in the hydrate decomposition promoter, the concentration of the hydrate decomposition promoter increases, and the decomposition rate of natural gas hydrate is accelerated.
上述技术方案将燃烧器生成的载热流体导入到天然气水合物储层中,对天然气水合物储层进行加热,由于天然气水合物储层的压力较大,将载热流体导入到天然气水合物储层中,在实际操作中有一定的难度,采用该技术进行加热的方式实际使用效果很不理想。并且上述技术方案需要创建两个井,一个集气井和一个开采井,集气成本高。The above technical solution introduces the heat-carrying fluid generated by the burner into the natural gas hydrate reservoir to heat the natural gas hydrate reservoir. Due to the high pressure of the natural gas hydrate reservoir, it is difficult to introduce the heat-carrying fluid into the natural gas hydrate reservoir in actual operation. The actual use effect of the heating method using this technology is not ideal. In addition, the above technical solution requires the creation of two wells, a gas collection well and a production well, and the gas collection cost is high.

This method is a combined application of thermal shock and pressure reduction methods. The natural gas hydrate exploitation process of the present invention is simple, has high exploitation efficiency, low cost, simple operation, and is easy to realize automation and remote control. It is suitable for large-scale industrial exploitation of marine natural gas hydrates.
