摘要
The use of fracturing technology to transform and increase production in hydrate reservoirs has been proven to have application prospects for hydrate production. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the gas production patterns of reservoirs under the interaction between two production wells, and to obtain the optimal distance between production wells. This article is based on the hydrate occurrence Parameters of DK-2 Station in the permafrost region of the Qilian Mountains. The reservoir outside the dual production wells were fractured by fracturing, and the production potential of this method for extracting hydrate Sediments in the permafrost region was evaluated through numerical Simulation. The Simulation results show that the use of hydraulic fracturing method to enhance the permeability of the surrounding reservoirs of the mining well has broken through the technical bottleneck of using only depressurization method to extract hydrates. The gas production rate and cumulative gas release are higher than traditional depressurization methods, and the average gas water ratio has significantly increased. After the rock matrix around the horizontal well ruptures, it will increase the flow characteristics of the fracturing zone, thereby promoting the propagation distance of pressure drop. The infiltration of hydrate decomposition areas between horizontal production wells is conducive to promoting the decomposition of gas and water flow towards the production wells. In addition, hydraulic fracturing methods are very effective for hydrate reservoirs with intrinsic permeability below 1 mD, and the recommended optimal distance between production wells is 45-60 m. © 2025 Science Frontiers editorial department.
