In the cavity making process, in order to ensure that the bottom and the top of a salt layer are not penetrated by dissolution and prevent the stored natural gas from leaking, diesel oil is generally injected into the underground from an annulus between a middle pipe and a sleeve as a solvent resistance; because the density of the diesel oil is less than that of the brine, the diesel oil is positioned above the brine, and the shape of the dissolution cavity can be controlled and the bottom and the top of the salt layer are protected from being dissolved through by adjusting the depth of the diesel oil/brine interface. The prior art is based on the current source theory, and the detection precision is limited by the number and distribution of the sensors; the position of the pipe column needs to be regularly adjusted along with the continuous change of the depth of the oil-water interface, so that the workload is high; in addition, the operational life of the sensor is extremely challenging for high temperature and high pressure salt cavern reservoirs.
