  • Patent number: 10830019
    Abstract: A method for improving the gas recovery of a natural gas hydrate reservoir by using artificial impermeable layers is described. Artificial impermeable layers are formed by injecting cement slurry into the permeable overburden and underburden layers. When depressurization exploitation is performed, a large amount of seawater can be effectively blocked from entering a hydrate layer, and a production pressure difference between the hydrate layer and the production well is effectively increased, so that a hydrate decomposition rate and the gas recovery are improved.

  • Patent number: 10816531
    Abstract: A daily gas production rate of a methane hydrate deposit is calculated based on inflow performance relationship formulas. Step 1 determines the production stage, including the gas production rate trend of a production test and selecting an inflow performance relationship formula corresponding to the stage. Step 2 calculates basic coefficient terms related to energy conversion in the inflow performance relationship formula. Step 3 obtains other coefficient terms related to production in the inflow performance relationship formula. Step 4 predicts the gas production rate under other production pressure differences. Staged inflow performance relationship formulas characterize the complex methane hydrate deposit production performance.
