Abstract

Hydrate sediments usually have both pore-filling and grain-coating morphology, but current permeability models consider either pore-filling or grain-coating morphology. This paper proposes a dynamic permeability model for compound morphology in hydrate sediment with rough capillary. After it is verified with permeability experiments and existing permeability models, this dynamic permeability model is incorporated into our thermal-hydraulic-mechanical-chemical fully coupling model for hydrate decomposition. This fully coupling model is verified by the analytical solution of Terzaghi's one-dimensional consolidation and the Masuda's hydrate decomposition experiment. The simulation results showed that the difference between phase equilibrium pressure and reservoir dynamic pressure is an important indicator to ensure the stable and efficient production of hydrate. Capillary roughness mainly affects gas production peak rate during gas hydrate decomposition. Greater capillary roughness will make smaller gas production peak rate appear at later time. Cumulative gas production and sediment dynamic permeability increase with increase of the volume fraction of grain-coating hydrate.
