Description

Geological channel simulation system and method for natural gas hydrate exploitation leakage
Technical Field

Background
Natural gas hydrate is favored by governments and researchers in various countries in the world due to the advantages of large reserves, wide distribution, high energy density, cleanness after combustion and no pollution. The natural gas hydrate exploitation research is highly valued by countries in the world, particularly developed countries and energy shortage countries, such as the united states, japan, canada, germany, korea, india, china and the like, a natural gas hydrate research and development plan is established, the united states and japan even propose a goal of realizing the commercial exploitation of the natural gas hydrate before and after 2020, and china also propose a great-bodied goal of realizing the commercial exploitation of the natural gas hydrate in 2030. In recent years, the research of the main development countries of natural gas hydrates focuses on promoting the commercial exploitation of submarine natural gas hydrates, natural gas hydrate drilling and trial mining plans are started in many countries such as the united states, japan, india, malaysia, korea, china and the like, and sea natural gas hydrate trial mining is successively and successfully implemented in japan and china.
Although marine natural gas hydrate resources have great potential, production is accompanied by great environmental risks. Because most of the marine natural gas hydrate reservoirs do not have complete trap structures and compact cover layers, improper development of the marine natural gas hydrate reservoirs can cause that hydrocarbon gases such as methane and the like contained in the natural gas hydrate reservoirs can migrate upwards to the vicinity of the seabed along areas such as structural surfaces, sediment cracks and the like to induce geological disasters such as seabed landslide and the like, and then enter a bottom layer seawater environment to generate methane oxidation, so that environmental problems such as seawater acidification, ocean environment shortage and the like can be caused. Even the leaked methane gas is decomposed in large scale and enters the atmosphere, and the greenhouse gas effect intensity of methane is more than 20 times that of the methane dioxide, the global greenhouse effect can be intensified by the leaked methane gas, so that the natural gas hydrate exploitation is held under the cautious attitude in all countries of the world.
Leakage pathways such as natural gas hydrate reservoirs and fractures, pores, structural surfaces, etc. of overlying sedimentary formations are necessary bridges and prerequisites for leaked methane to enter the seabed. At present, the research on the seabed leaked methane mainly focuses on seabed in-situ observation and investigation, including shooting bubbles of the seabed leaked methane, measuring the concentration and flux of methane in seawater and the like, however, the observation means can only observe the condition that the methane leaks out of the seabed, the migration, transformation mode and mechanism of the methane below the seabed are difficult to directly observe, and the research is limited to theoretical speculation and hypothesis research. On the other hand, most of the existing natural gas hydrate indoor simulation means are in the aspects of formation, phase change, heat transfer, mass transfer, multiphase seepage and the like related to decomposition of natural gas hydrates in a closed system, and the leakage situation of methane after the natural gas hydrates are decomposed is of little concern, and a natural gas hydrate methane leakage channel system and an implementation method are needed to make up for the situation that the existing technical means cannot directly observe and study the migration and transformation situations of methane after the natural gas hydrates are decomposed and leaked in overlying sediments before seeping out of the seabed.
