  • 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.

  • Patent number: 10344576
    Abstract: The example of implementation of the invention provides a method used for exploiting a natural gas hydrate reservoir and belongs to the field of natural gas hydrate reservoir exploitation. The method mainly comprises a heat-injecting vertical well and a production horizontal well. The production horizontal well is opened in a segmental manner. In combination with natural gas hydrate heat exploitation, heat flow injected into the vertical well is enabled to heat different positions of the natural gas hydrate reservoir to increase a recovery ratio of the natural gas hydrate reservoir. The method specifically comprises the steps of injecting a heat flow into the natural gas hydrate reservoir by utilizing the vertical well to promote decomposition of the hydrate; firstly opening a horizontal branch of the horizontal well fully and keeping depressurization exploitation.
