Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of marine resource exploration, in particular to a natural gas hydrate reservoir geological condition in-situ monitoring system.
Background
Natural gas hydrates, also called "combustible ice", are ice-like crystalline substances formed by water and natural gas in high-pressure low-temperature environments, and are widely distributed in nature in the deep-water environments of continental permafrost, slope zones of islands, elevations at the edges of active and passive continents, polar continental shelves, and oceans and some inland lakes. Because the fuel hardly generates any residue after combustion, the pollution is lower than that of coal, petroleum and natural gas, and the resource density is high, the fuel is expected to become an ideal energy source of a new generation. However, the natural gas hydrate has a special environment, which severely limits the development of resources, including exploration.
In the development process of the natural gas hydrate, secondary disasters such as landslide, ground settlement, methane leakage and the like are easily induced to influence the drilling safety, wherein the change of the geological conditions of the storage layer is a main factor for inducing the geological disasters, so the in-situ monitoring work of the natural gas hydrate needs to be enhanced in the development process. Geophysical exploration is an important technical means for detecting natural gas hydrate reservoirs, and the positions of the natural gas hydrate reservoirs can be inferred by utilizing seabed simulation reflection signal features (BSR) in reflection seismic wavelet signals. The principle is that the reservoir position of the natural gas hydrate is identified by the large difference of acoustic impedance between a low-permeability hydrate layer and a large amount of free natural gas and saturated water sediments thereunder, the top and bottom boundaries and the occurrence of the natural gas hydrate layer can be inferred, and the depth, the thickness and the volume of the hydrate layer are calculated. However, conventional geophysical exploration uses air gun sources and large-track-length multi-channel reception (such as 6.25 meters or more), has low resolution, and adopts a two-dimensional or three-dimensional operation mode of sea surface towing, which cannot meet the resolution requirement and the requirement of in-situ monitoring. A system and a method for fine seismic exploration of natural gas hydrates are disclosed in chinese patent document CN109239782A published as 8-month and 30-month in 2018, and an air gun seismic source with a capacity of 240cu.in or 560cu.in is adopted, so that the resolution ratio is relatively low.
At present, aiming at submarine resource exploration, a used seismic source mainly comprises an air gun, the resolution and the penetration depth are low, and the storage layer geological environment is difficult to accurately determine.
