Description

System and method for natural gas hydrate decomposition methane leakage and cold spring ecological simulation
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ocean engineering, in particular to a natural gas hydrate decomposed methane leakage and cold spring ecological simulation system and method.
Background
The natural gas hydrate is commonly called as combustible ice and is widely applied to seabed sediments at the edge of continents, the global storage amount is up to two billions of cubic meters, the carbon content of the natural gas hydrate is 2 times of the carbon storage amount of all fossil fuels found in the world, 160-180 m3 of natural gas can be released by each cubic meter of the natural gas hydrate under the standard state, and the amount of carbon dioxide discharged during combustion is only 24% of the amount of the fossil fuels. Because of the characteristics of large reserves, high energy density, wide distribution, no pollution and residue after combustion and the like, the natural gas hydrate is praised as a substitute energy source with the greatest prospect in the 21 st century.
Gaseous methane generated after the natural gas hydrate is decomposed is transported to the seabed along the fracture channel to overflow, and a cold spring is formed on the seabed. The leaked fluid provides abundant nutrients for some microorganisms (bacteria and archaea) which are synthesized by means of chemotherAN _ SNy, forms a food chain with chemotherAN _ SNy autotrophic bacteria as primary producers, and develops a complete seabed cold spring ecosystem with very unique community structure. The discovery of the cold spring biological group taking methane as energy and carbon source expands the potential boundary of life in the deep sea extreme environment, explains the meaning of life by brand-new face, simultaneously the biological density of the cold spring system is high and the biological diversity is low, the diversity of metabolites and abundant gene resources are inoculated, the unprecedented opportunity is provided for discovering new microbial metabolic pathways and survival strategies, and the leading edge scientific research of the cold spring ecosystem has important significance for disclosing unknown deep sea extreme life processes.
However, at present, the interaction relationship between the methane leakage decomposed by natural gas hydrate and the development of the seabed cold spring is not clearly defined, and the current research on natural gas hydrate and the research on the ecological system of the cold spring and the cold spring are in a splitting state. The existing research on the natural gas hydrate simulation technology is limited to the research on natural gas hydrates in natural gas hydrate reservoirs, basic physical property parameters of reservoirs, decomposition phase change of the natural gas hydrates, heat transfer, mass transfer and reservoir deformation. The methane leakage mechanism of the natural gas hydrate decomposition reservoir is not clear, and the migration and conversion mechanism of the leaked methane gas escaping from the interface on the natural gas hydrate reservoir in the leakage path of the overlying sedimentary deposit is almost in a blank state. At present, the research on the deep-sea cold spring mainly comes from the observation research on the migration forms of cold spring fluid such as cold spring bubbles, cold spring plumes and the like in the seabed in situ, and the research on the expression forms of the cold spring such as cold spring carbonates and the like in the seabed, most of the sources of the cold spring fluid are suspected to come from the decomposition of natural gas hydrates at the lower part of the seabed, however, the specific association between the methane leakage decomposition of the natural gas hydrates and the dynamic mechanism of the cold spring development is not clear, and the existing research on the cold spring development is not actually associated with the formation and decomposition of the natural gas hydrates. The interrelationship of methane leakage flux at the boundaries of natural gas hydrate reservoirs and sedimentary formations, methane flux into sedimentary leak paths, and methane flux of cold springs escaping at the seafloor is not well understood. The relationship between cold spring development and the evolution of the cold spring ecosystem needs to be deeply researched to reveal the mysterious veil of the deep sea extreme life development. In-situ seabed detection tests can only observe limited fragmentation data of seabed units, and in the prior art, the evolution relationship between natural gas hydrates below seabed sediments and cold spring development above a seabed interface and a cold spring ecosystem is difficult to intuitively and transparently research. With the development of deep sea simulation technology, a large-scale comprehensive deep sea simulation experiment device is established, and the whole process of simulating methane leakage decomposition of natural gas hydrate below the sea bottom, cold spring development and cold spring ecosystem formation evolution is a necessary means for solving the basic scientific problems of environment ecology in natural gas hydrate development and the basic scientific problems at the front edge of a cold spring system.
