Subject: Other
Keywords: coal-measure gas, hydrocarbon generation evolution, Julu sag, source rock, tectonic evolution
To uncover the reservoir characteristics and enrichment law of coal-measure gas in Julu sag, Hebei Province, and achieve co-exploration and co-mining, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive analysis. In this study, we investigated the characteristics of coal-measure gas accumulation in the Taiyuan Formation and Shanxi Formation in the Julu area. This was achieved by collecting data on coal-measure source rocks and organic geochemistry, which were then combined with regional geological conditions. This study indicates that the coal seams and shales of Shanxi Formation and Taiyuan Formation in the study area serve as the primary source rocks. The predominant macerals found in coal rock are vitrinite. Furthermore, the organic matter type present in shale is primarily categorized as type II2, with the organic matter maturity falling within the immature−mature stage. Based on the simulation results of tectonic-burial history, thermal evolution history, and hydrocarbon generation history... [more]

August 23, 2024 (v1)
Subject: Other
Keywords: ice melting, oil and gas production, permafrost, thermal conductivity, vacuum-insulated casing, wellbore stability
During oil and gas development in permafrost, hot fluids within the wellbore can cause ice melting around wellbore and a decrease in sediment strength, as well as wellbore instability. In the present work, the experimental system for evaluating the insulation effectiveness was established, and the applicability of this experimental system and methodology was verified. It was found that the difference between the experimentally obtained and actual thermal conductivity of the ordinary casings are all within 1.0 W/(m·°C). Meanwhile, the evaluation of insulation effect found that the decrease in fluid temperature, ambient temperature, and vacuum degree can improve its insulation performance. Finally, the numerical simulation was conducted on ice melting and borehole stability during the drilling operation in permafrost. The investigation results demonstrate that the use of vacuum-insulated casings significantly reduces the total heat transferred during the simulation by 86.72% compared to... [more]

Subject: Other
Keywords: Al-Mo-Hf system, isothermal section, phase equilibrium, solid solubility
This study investigates the phase equilibria of the Al-Mo-Hf ternary system at 400 °C and 600 °C using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA/WDS) techniques. Seven three-phase and five two-phase regions were identified at 400 °C, while eight three-phase and four two-phase regions were identified at 600 °C.

Subject: Other
Keywords: alkaline minerals, combining model, Fengcheng Formation, Junggar Basin, Litho Scanner Log, Mahu Sag, mineral inversion
The Fengcheng Formation in the Mahu Sag of the Junggar Basin, China, is characterized by alkaline lake deposits, featuring abundant alkaline minerals. The content of alkaline minerals affects the physical properties and oil-bearing properties of the reservoir, and existing mineral inversion methods cannot calculate the content of alkaline minerals. Based on Litho Scanner Log data, we can calculate the dry weight of elements using the oxide closure model. By improving the rock volume physical model; adding trona, shortite, eitelite, and reedmergnerite to the rock volume physical model; and combining with the least squares method, the mineral content calculation was carried out, using the inversion method of combination models (Shortite Model, Eitelite Model, Reedmergnerite Model, and Trona Model) to achieve mineral inversion of alkali-bearing shale oil reservoirs. Litho Scanner Log is expensive, and its widespread application will increase exploration costs. This article scales the mine... [more]

Subject: Other
Keywords: geochemistry, shale, simulation modeling, source rock, unconventional resources
Previous studies have mainly focused on the source rocks of the 7th Member of Yanchang Formation (Chang 7 Member) in the Ordos Basin, with very few studies focusing on the extracts from the source rocks. These extracts have important guiding significance for studying the in situ conversion process of shale oil. Taking the shale source rock of the Chang 7 Member as an example, this paper selected the extract of shale source rock (i.e., retained oil), which has been less studied previously, as the sample to carry out the hydrocarbon-generating pyrolysis simulation experiment of a semi-open−semi-closed system. Seven groups of parallel simulation experiments were designed with a pressure of 20 MPa. The generated oil and gas were collected and quantified, and their geochemical characteristics were researched. In addition, the generated oil and gas were investigated from aspects of cumulative yield and net increased yield, and the chromatographic and mass spectral characteristics of the gene... [more]
Research on Fluid−Solid Coupling Mechanism around Openhole Wellbore under Transient Seepage Conditions

Subject: Other
Keywords: effective circumferential stress, fluid–solid coupling, open-hole wellbore, pore pressure
Hydraulic fracturing is one of the most important enhanced oil recovery technologies currently used to develop unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. During hydraulic fracture initiation, fluid seeps into the reservoir rocks surrounding the wellbore, inducing rock deformation and changes in the stress field. Analyzing the fluid−solid coupling mechanism around the wellbore is crucial to the construction design of fracturing technologies such as pulse fracturing and supercritical carbon dioxide fracturing. In this study, a new transient fluid−solid coupling model, capable of simulating the pore pressure field and effective stress field around the wellbore, was established based on the Biot consolidation theory combined with the finite difference method. The numerical results are in excellent agreement with the analytical solutions, indicating the reliability of the model and the stability of the computational approach. Using this model, the influence of seepage parameters and reservoir p... [more]

June 10, 2024 (v1)
Subject: Other
Keywords: expansion properties, fracture expansion, internal cooling blowout prevention methods, large-diameter boreholes, soundless chemical demolition agents
Increasing the diameter of the drillhole can facilitate drillhole breakage using soundless chemical demolition agents, but it is prone to cause drillhole blowout, resulting in crushing failure. This paper conducted a blowhole prevention test on a large borehole using the internal insertion cooling pipe method (ICBPM) to test the expansion pressure of cooling pipes with different diameters. During this test, a fracture occurred in a hole with a 75 mm inner diameter in the rectangular sandstone specimens with high strength. It was found that utilizing the ICBPM can effectively hinder the development of blowholes. Expansion and blowhole prevention are optimized with a 0.14 mass ratio of the cooling water to demolition agent and a maximum expansion stress of 49.0 MPa. The guiding effect of the minimum resistance line is significant. In repeated tests, all fissures are distributed in a Y-shape on the free surface where the minimum resistance line is located. The acoustic emission signals fr... [more]

Material treatment in pulsation reactors (PRs) offers the potential to synthesize powdery products with desirable properties, such as nano-sized particles and high specific surface areas, on an industrial scale. These exceptional material characteristics arise from specific process parameters within PRs, characterized by the periodically varying conditions and the resulting enhanced heat and mass transfer between the medium and the particulate material. Understanding flame behavior and the re-ignition mechanism is crucial to controlling the efficiency and stability of the pulse combustion process. In order to accomplish this objective, an investigation was conducted into flame behavior within the combustion chamber of a Helmholtz-type pulsation reactor. The study was focused on primarily analyzing the flame propagation process and examining flame velocity throughout the operational cycle of the reactor.

Subject: Other
Keywords: damage mechanism, dynamics analysis, effective stress, numerical simulation, perforating tubing, petroleum perforation, shock wave, ultra-deep well
During perforation in ultra-deep wells, the blast shock wave can induce dynamic responses of the perforating tubing, leading to potential downhole accidents such as vibration, deformation, and even fracture of the perforating tubing. To comprehend the dynamic response characteristics of the perforating tubing under blast impact load, we conducted a joint finite element simulation using SolidWorks, Hypermesh, and LS-DYNA. The simulation included deformation analysis, motion analysis, and strength analysis of the perforating tubing. By analyzing these factors, we obtained the change in velocity, acceleration, and equivalent stress of the perforating tubing over time under the blast load. The finite element analysis indicates the following: (a) the bottom of the perforating tubing is susceptible to significant tension compression cycle; (b) the velocity amplitude variation is smallest at the top of the perforating tubing, while the frequency and peak values of velocity changes are maximal...

Since the discovery of the vast Jimusaer shale oilfield in the southeastern Junggar Basin in 2012, there has been considerable interest in neighboring areas around Bogeda Mountain that have shale oil potential. The primary productive interval in the basin, the Middle Permian Lucaogou Formation (P2l), is well-developed in the areas of Qitai, Mulei, Shiqiantan, Chaiwopu, and Miquan.

Marangoni Convection Velocity in Nonlinear Hanging-Droplet Vibration Phenomena
June 7, 2024 (v1)
Subject: Other
Keywords: interfacial instability, interfacial tension, Marangoni effect, oscillation
The Marangoni effect involves a mass transfer along an interface between two phases owing to the gradient of the interfacial tension. The flow caused by this phenomenon is called Marangoni convection, a complex phenomenon that involves mass transfer processes, such as surfactant adsorption/desorption processes, solvent dissolution phenomena, and viscous dissipation processes. Therefore, the strength of the convection depends on the various thermodynamic and physical properties of the fluids. In this study, we experimentally investigated the relationship between the Marangoni convection generated inside a hanging oil droplet and the interfacial tension of the oil droplet in an aqueous phase by the particle image velocimetry method. This convection velocity depended on the initial value of the interfacial tension in the oil−water interfacial tension oscillation phenomenon accompanied by the expansion and contraction of the hanging drop. Additionally, the droplet oscillation frequency dec... [more]

Subject: Other
Keywords: collapse pressure, Monte Carlo, reliability, stable borehole, uncertainty
Both domestic and international scholars have conducted in-depth research on wellbore stability issues. They have established various empirical models, analytical models, and numerical simulation methods. However, there is relatively little research on the impact of the uncertainty of input parameters on wellbore stability, and the understanding of this aspect remains unclear. To address this, this paper introduces a probability distribution method. It is based on a wellbore stability mechanical analytical model and, using reliability theory, establishes a method for evaluating wellbore instability risks. By employing the Monte Carlo random simulation method, this study investigates the sensitivity of input parameters to wellbore stability, clarifying that ground stress is the main controlling factor affecting wellbore stability. Combining the analysis of the “felt layer” ground stress profile, this study utilizes two-dimensional simulation experiments to validate the accurate determin... [more]

Subject: Other
Keywords: explosion characteristics, methane/air, side duct position, venting
In order to explore the influence of the side duct position and venting position on the premixed combustion and explosion characteristics of methane/air, a premixed combustion and explosion experiment of methane/air and a simulation of an explosion of the same size were carried out in a tube with an internal size of 2000 mm × 110 mm × 110 mm. The results showed that the side duct could change the flame structure and accelerate the flame inside the tube. The maximum increase ratio of the flame propagation speed was 106.1%. The side duct had a certain venting effect on the explosion pressure. For different position cases, when the venting film was placed over the bottom section, the maximum overpressure first decreased and then increased. When the venting film was placed over the middle section and the top section, the maximum overpressure first increased and then decreased, and the change trend of the top section was stronger.

Subject: Other
Keywords: centrifuge-based, fluorescent hydrogel microspheres, injection molding, microdroplet generation
Microdroplets have been widely used in different fields due to their unique properties, such as compartmentalization, single-molecule sensitivity, chemical and biological compatibility, and high throughput. Compared to intricate and labor-intensive microfluidic techniques, the centrifuge-based method is more convenient and cost-effective for generating droplets. In this study, we developed a handy injection molding based method to readily produce monodisperse droplets by centrifugation.

Keywords: carbonate rock, fractal dimension, microscopic description, permeability, reservoir characteristics
The complexity and heterogeneity of pore structures in carbonate reservoirs pose significant challenges for accurately characterizing the influence of different pore micro-parameters on reservoir physical properties. Drawing upon the principles of fractal geometry theory applied to reservoir rocks, this study combines mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) T2 spectrum methods to explore the relationship between the fractal dimension and micro-parameters of pore throats at various scales.

Subject: Other
Keywords: acid fracturing, integrated modeling, naturally fractured carbonate, stimulation strategy
Natural fractures and wormholes strongly influence the performance of acid fracturing in naturally fractured carbonate reservoirs. This work uses an integrated model to study the effects of treatment parameters in acid fracturing in different reservoir conditions.

Subject: Other
Keywords: acid fracturing, bottom-water gas reservoir, ground stress difference, longitudinal fracture propagation, stimulation
The reservoir in the Anyue gas field, located in the Sichuan basin of China, belongs to the second member of the Dengying formation and has distinctive geological features. It is characterized by strong heterogeneity, low porosity, low permeability, and locally developed natural fractures. The reservoir space consists primarily of corrosion holes, natural fractures, and similar voids. Moreover, the lower reservoir exhibits high water saturation and a homogeneous bottom-water interface. Since it is a carbonate-based hydrocarbon reservoir with low porosity and permeability, deep acid fracturing has proven to be an efficient method for enhancing individual well production. However, the reconstruction of the second member of the Dengying formation reservoir poses significant challenges. The reservoir contains high-angle natural fractures, small vertical stress differences, and is located in close proximity to the gas−water interface.

Keywords: blowout, gas-flow-rate inversion, jet flame, numerical simulation
Accurately estimating the gas-flow rate at a wellhead to invert the formation pressure and production capacity information can be the basis for subsequent well-killing parameter design following oil and gas-well drilling blowout and ignition. Based on the multicomponent characteristics of the blowout gas and the turbulence intensity of the blowout flame, as well as the effects of complex factors such as environmental wind direction, wind speed, and wellhead structure, a numerical model for actual drilling blowout ignition is established. Jet-flame experiments are conducted under blowout conditions to verify the accuracy of the model. The temperature and radiation fields and flame morphologies of the well jet flow flame under different lateral wind speeds, well jet flow rates, and wellhead diameters are analyzed. Previous studies have found that as the lateral wind speed increases, the maximum temperature and maximum thermal radiation intensity of the blowout flame first decrease and th... [more]

Subject: Other
Keywords: acid-fracture morphology, acid-injection mode, conductivity, field application, multi-stages alternating acid fracturing, ultra-deep carbonate reservoirs
The conductivity of acid-etched fractures and the subsequent production response are influenced by the injection mode of the fracturing fluid and acid fluid during acid fracturing in a carbonate reservoir. However, there has been a lack of comprehensive and systematic experimental research on the impact of commonly used injection modes in oilfields on conductivity, which directly affects the optimal selection of acid-fracturing injection modes. To address this gap, the present study focuses on underground rock samples, acid systems, and fracturing fluid obtained from ultra-deep carbonate reservoirs in the Fuman Oilfield. Experimental investigations were conducted to examine the conductivity of hydraulic fractures etched by various types of acid fluids under five different injection modes: fracturing fluid + self-generating acid or cross-linked acid; fracturing fluid + self-generating acid + cross-linked acid. The findings demonstrate that the implementation of multi-stage alternating a... [more]

To realize the utilization of peanut shell, this study investigates the combustion behavior, chemical kinetics and thermodynamic parameters of peanut shell using TGA under atmospheric air at the heating rates of 10, 20, and 30 K/min. Results indicate that increasing the heating rate leads to higher ignition, burnout, and peak temperatures, as observed in the TG/DTG curves shifting to the right. Analysis of combustion performance parameters suggest that higher heating rates can enhance combustion performances. Kinetic analysis using two model-free methods, KAS and FWO, shows that the activation energy (Eα) ranges from 93.30 to 109.65 kJ/mol for FWO and 89.72 to 103.88 kJ/mol for KAS.
