101. and determining the maximum nitrogen injection amount of the nitrogen injection equipment according to the daily gas production amount of the injection-production well group.
In the embodiment, at least one gas production well in the same coal seam is communicated with one nitrogen injection well to form one injection and production well group. The method comprises the steps that coal bed gas can be displaced to at least one communicated gas recovery well through the nitrogen injection well, nitrogen in the nitrogen injection well is produced by the nitrogen injection equipment and injected into the nitrogen injection well, therefore, according to the method, the maximum nitrogen injection amount and the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment are determined according to parameters of the at least one gas recovery well, the nitrogen injection equipment is selected according to the determined maximum nitrogen injection amount and the determined maximum nitrogen injection pressure, and then the nitrogen injection equipment is adopted to inject the nitrogen into the nitrogen injection well.
It should be noted that, the embodiments of the present application are only described by taking the injection-production well group as an example. In another embodiment, when the injection and production well group is selected, the centrally-located gas production well with good connectivity with surrounding wells and various geological conditions is converted into a nitrogen injection well, and other wells around the nitrogen injection well continue to be used as gas production wells to jointly form the injection and production well group.
Because one nitrogen injection well is communicated with one or more gas recovery wells, the nitrogen injection well displaces coal bed gas to one or more gas recovery wells so as to improve the daily gas recovery rate of each gas recovery well, the maximum nitrogen injection amount of the nitrogen injection equipment is determined according to the daily gas recovery rate of at least one gas recovery well, and the nitrogen injection equipment is selected according to the subsequently determined maximum nitrogen injection amount so as to ensure that the nitrogen injection amount of the nitrogen injection equipment can meet the requirement of the daily gas recovery rate of each gas recovery well.
The selected nitrogen injection device provides nitrogen injection amount larger than the maximum nitrogen injection amount so as to ensure enough nitrogen injection amount, and the nitrogen injection displacement of the nitrogen injection device is adjustable.
In a possible implementation manner, the total daily gas production amount of the daily gas production amount of each gas production well in at least one gas production well is obtained, and the product of the total daily gas production amount and a preset parameter is determined as the maximum nitrogen injection amount of the nitrogen injection equipment.
The preset parameter is greater than 1, and the preset parameter is set by an operator or set in other manners, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. For example, the predetermined parameter may be 1.1, 1.2, or other values.
For example, if the preset parameter is 1.1 and the sum of the daily gas production of at least one gas production well is x, the determined maximum nitrogen injection amount of the nitrogen injection equipment is 1.1x.
It should be noted that the daily gas production rate of the gas recovery well in the embodiment of the present application is a preset daily gas production rate, or the daily gas production rate of the gas recovery well is a daily gas production rate of the gas recovery well in a previous exploitation process.

Wherein, the preset gas content is set by an operator or set by other modes. In addition, the preset permeability is set by an operator or in other ways.
Optionally, the number of gas production wells to which the nitrogen injection well is connected is higher than a preset number. Wherein the preset number is set by an operator or in other manners. For example, the predetermined number may be 4, 5, or other values.
102. And determining the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment according to the desorption pressure of the coal bed gas in the coal bed.
In the embodiment of the application, the nitrogen injection equipment controls the pressure of injected nitrogen in the process of injecting nitrogen into the nitrogen injection well, and if the injection pressure is higher, the pressure required to be provided by the nitrogen injection equipment is higher, so that when nitrogen is injected into the nitrogen injection well through the nitrogen injection equipment, the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment needs to be determined first, and the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment is ensured to meet the requirements of the nitrogen injection process.
The coal bed gas in this application embodiment adsorbs in the coal seam, if need exploit the coal bed gas, then need control the pressure in the gas production well to make the pressure in the gas production well be less than the desorption pressure of coal bed gas, guarantee that the coal bed gas is desorbed from the coal seam, and then drive in the gas production well by nitrogen gas, adopt the gas production well to reach the effect of exploiting the coal bed gas. And when the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment is determined, determining the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment according to the desorption pressure of the coal bed gas of the coal bed where the injection and production well group is located.
Optionally, the product of the desorption pressure of the injection-production well group and the preset multiple is determined as the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection device. Wherein the predetermined multiple is greater than 1, for example, the predetermined multiple is 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 or other values. For example, if the desorption pressure of the gas production well group is y and the preset multiple is 1.5, the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment is 1.5y.
In a possible implementation manner, before the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment is determined according to the desorption pressure of the injection and production well group, the desorption pressure of the injection and production well group needs to be determined, and the average value of the desorption pressure of the coal bed gas of the coal bed where each gas production well is located in at least one gas production well in the injection and production well group can be determined as the desorption pressure of the coal bed gas of the coal bed where the injection and production well group is located.
For example, the injection-production well group includes 3 gas production wells, and the desorption pressure of the coal bed gas in the coal bed in each gas production well is a, b, and c, respectively, so that the average value of the desorption pressures of the 3 gas production wells calculated is (a + b + c)/3.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the desorption pressure of each gas production well is obtained as follows: in the process of drainage and pressure reduction of the coal bed gas production well, along with the pressure reduction to a certain degree, the coal bed gas starts to be desorbed from the coal bed, and the bottom flowing pressure of the well when casing pressure is seen at the well mouth is determined as the desorption pressure of the well.
In addition, in the embodiment of the application, the coal seam where the gas production well is located has a fracture pressure, and if the pressure borne by the coal seam is greater than the fracture pressure of the coal seam, the coal seam is fractured, so that nitrogen injected through the nitrogen injection well enters the fractured coal seam, the injected nitrogen cannot displace the coal seam gas in the coal seam to enter the gas production well, the injected nitrogen is wasted, and the gas production rate of the gas production well cannot be improved, so that the determined maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection device needs to be less than the fracture pressure of the coal seam.

The nitrogen making equipment is an air separation device with two groups of aluminum dioxide molecular sieves for alternate separation and reduction, and the nitrogen boosting equipment is equipment such as a reciprocating compressor, a screw compressor and the like.
It should be further noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the gas production well further includes a displacement pressure, where the displacement pressure is an important index for increasing the gas production rate of the gas production well, the displacement pressure is a pressure for displacing the coal bed gas in the coal bed with the injected nitrogen gas, and the displacement pressure is smaller than a desorption pressure of the coal bed gas, so as to ensure that the gas production rate of the gas production well is increased.
For example, the displacement pressure is between one third and two thirds of the desorption pressure of the injection and production well group, so that the injected nitrogen can smoothly displace the coal bed gas in the coal bed, and further the gas production rate of the gas production well is ensured.
It should be noted that, the embodiments of the present application are only described by taking a nitrogen injection device connected to one nitrogen injection well as an example of determining the maximum nitrogen injection amount and the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection device. In another embodiment, the nitrogen injection device can be further connected with a plurality of nitrogen injection wells, when the maximum nitrogen injection amount and the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection device are determined, the sum of the daily gas production amounts of the gas production wells connected with each nitrogen injection well is multiplied by a coefficient larger than 1 to determine the maximum nitrogen injection amount of the nitrogen injection device, and the maximum desorption pressure is used as the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection device.
103. And controlling the nitrogen injection equipment, and injecting nitrogen into the nitrogen injection well so as to displace the coal bed gas in the coal bed into the corresponding at least one gas production well, wherein the at least one gas production well produces the coal bed gas based on the injected nitrogen.
In the embodiment of the application, after the maximum nitrogen injection amount and the maximum nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment are determined, the nitrogen injection equipment meeting the requirements can be selected according to the maximum nitrogen injection amount and the maximum nitrogen injection pressure, and the nitrogen injection equipment is subsequently controlled to inject nitrogen into the nitrogen injection well.
The nitrogen injection equipment selected according to the mode meets the nitrogen injection requirement of the nitrogen injection well, so that the discharge capacity of injected nitrogen is enough, the coal bed is not broken due to overlarge injection pressure, and the gas production rate of the gas recovery well is ensured.
In the embodiment of the application, nitrogen is injected into the nitrogen injection well by controlling the nitrogen injection equipment, so that the nitrogen can enter the coal bed to displace coal bed gas into the gas production well, and the effect of exploiting the coal bed gas through the gas production well is realized.
104. And adjusting the nitrogen injection amount and the nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment and the daily gas recovery amount of each gas recovery well according to the volume of the nitrogen injected by the nitrogen injection equipment, the displacement outburst direction and the daily gas recovery amount and nitrogen content of each gas recovery well.
Wherein the displacement outburst direction is the direction of the nitrogen injection well pointing to any gas recovery well. Because one gas recovery well is connected with at least one gas recovery well, and one gas recovery well may be communicated with a plurality of gas recovery wells, each gas recovery well improves daily gas recovery under the action of nitrogen gas injected into the gas recovery well, and because of the structure of the coal seam, the daily gas recovery of the gas recovery well is less affected by partial nitrogen injection wells, so that the displacement plunging direction of the nitrogen injection equipment needs to be determined, the nitrogen injection amount and the nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment are adjusted according to the displacement plunging direction, and the daily gas recovery of each gas recovery well is guaranteed to be improved.
In the embodiment of the application, the nitrogen injection equipment injects nitrogen into the nitrogen injection well, the coal bed gas is displaced into the gas production well through the injected nitrogen, the gas production well produces the coal bed gas, the daily gas production rate of the gas production well and the nitrogen content of the produced coal bed gas can be recorded, and the nitrogen injection amount, the nitrogen injection pressure and the daily gas production rate of each gas production well of the nitrogen injection equipment can be adjusted subsequently according to the injection volume, the displacement outburst direction and the daily gas production rate and the nitrogen content of each gas production well of the nitrogen injection equipment.

When the coal bed gas is mined through the gas recovery wells, the nitrogen content, the gas yield, the temperature and the wellhead pressure in each gas recovery well can be respectively detected through the nitrogen content detector, the gas flowmeter, the temperature sensor and the pressure sensor in each gas recovery well, and the nitrogen injection amount and the nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment and the daily gas recovery amount of each gas recovery well are adjusted according to the detected parameters.
In another possible implementation manner, the nitrogen injection device injects a tracer into the nitrogen injection well, the tracer enters the gas production well through the nitrogen injection well, the tracer in at least one gas production well is detected, and the direction of the nitrogen injection well pointing to the gas production well in which the tracer is detected is determined as a displacement plunging direction.
The tracer is helium or other inert gas, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited.
Optionally, one nitrogen injection well is connected with a plurality of gas recovery wells, then the nitrogen injection equipment injects a tracer into the nitrogen injection well, the tracer in at least one gas recovery well is detected, and the direction of the nitrogen injection well pointing to the gas recovery well in which the tracer is detected is determined as the displacement plunging-in direction.
Optionally, under the condition that a plurality of nitrogen injection wells are simultaneously communicated with one gas production well, firstly injecting a tracer into a first nitrogen injection well, detecting whether the tracer exists in the gas production well or not after a preset interval time, then injecting the tracer into a second nitrogen injection well, detecting whether the tracer exists in the gas production well or not after the preset interval time, and so on, injecting the tracer into a next nitrogen injection well every preset interval time, detecting whether the tracer exists or not after the preset interval time until the gas production well detects the tracer, and determining the direction of the previous nitrogen injection well to the gas production well as the displacement plunging-in direction.

The preset multiple is greater than 1, for example, the preset multiple is 3, 4, 5, 6 or other values.
In another possible implementation mode, the displacement area of the nitrogen injection well to at least one gas production well is determined according to the displacement outburst direction and the gas production rate and nitrogen content of each gas production well, and the nitrogen injection amount, nitrogen injection pressure and the gas production rate of each gas production well of the nitrogen injection equipment are adjusted according to the displacement area.
Wherein the displacement area is the area of the coal bed displaced by the nitrogen injected into the nitrogen injection well. If the displacement area determined in the embodiment of the application is larger, the effect of the injected nitrogen on improving the gas production rate of the gas production well is better.
In another possible implementation manner, the recovery ratio is determined according to the total gas production rate of the injection and production well group and the total storage capacity of the coal bed, and the nitrogen injection amount and the nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment and the daily gas production rate of each gas production well are adjusted according to the recovery ratio.
In the embodiment of the application, if the volume of the nitrogen injection device for injecting nitrogen is small and the nitrogen content of each gas production well is low, it indicates that the nitrogen injection amount of the nitrogen injection device is low, at this time, the nitrogen injection amount and the nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection device are increased, and the daily gas production amount of each gas production well is not changed, so that the nitrogen content in the gas production well is increased after the subsequent nitrogen injection device injects nitrogen into the nitrogen injection well based on the increased nitrogen injection amount.
For another example, in the multiple gas production wells tested at this time, if the gas production of the first gas production well and the second gas production well is high, and the nitrogen content is high, and the gas production of the third gas production well and the fourth gas production well is low, and the nitrogen content is also low, the displacement outburst direction is the direction in which the nitrogen injection well points to the first gas production well and the second gas production well. At this time, the daily gas production rate of the first gas production well and the second gas production well should be reduced, so that the injected nitrogen is displaced towards the third gas production well and the fourth gas production well, and the gas production rate of the third gas production well and the fourth gas production well is improved. Meanwhile, the nitrogen injection amount and the nitrogen injection pressure of the nitrogen injection equipment are kept unchanged.
105. And controlling the nitrogen injection equipment to inject nitrogen into the nitrogen injection well according to the adjusted nitrogen injection amount and the adjusted nitrogen injection pressure, and exploiting the coal bed gas by at least one gas production well based on the injected nitrogen and the adjusted daily gas production amount.
