Simulator for a Natural Gas Storage Realised in Depleted Deposit
2014
The present paper presents the implementation of a numerical model for a natural storage transformed into a deposit which takes into consideration the geometry of the storage, the properties of the rocks and in which the movements of the gases can be described. The model is two-dimensional nonstationary and allows the dynamic simulation of the processes of injection and extraction. The location of the wells and their flows can be thus studied and optimized to maximize the amount of the stored gases. The presented model allows the quick finding of solutions for a whole cycle of storage in a short time so that it could be used successfully in the operation process.
Computer-aided study of the gas flow within a natural gas storage and the associated collection network
2017
The current paper presents a computer-aided analysis of the way in which a natural gas storage created in a depleted gas deposit and the associated gas collection network are operated, both during the extraction phase and during the injection phase. In a first step, an analysis is carried out on a two-dimensional, nonstationary model for the gas storage, based on the deposit’s geometry and the rock properties, but also on the gas motions. Also, a dynamic simulation of the injection and extraction processes is unfolded, allowing the study and optimisation of elements such as well placement and gas flows through the wells with the goal of maximising the storable gas quantities.
