“老脚印”对自升式钻井平台插桩滑移的影响研究

渤海海域自升式钻井平台作业频率高,在同一区块多次插桩作业情况多,为自升式平台插桩作业带来严重的滑移风险。通过建立常用的两种类型桩靴的有限元分析模型,采用模拟计算和对比分析的研究方法,对在“老脚印”不同距离位置插桩时,桩基土体的塑性破坏特性、运移规律及桩靴所受侧向滑移力进行了模拟研究,得出了在不同土质条件下,桩基土和桩靴的受力特性及规律,分析了不同位置的“老脚印“对自升式平台插桩滑移风险的影响。     

基于斜坡破坏模式的软弱变质岩区岩质滑坡易发性评价

滑坡受控于地质环境条件和坡体地质结构,不同地质结构的斜坡失稳破坏的模式存在差异,本文以后龙门山千枚岩区为例,基于现场调查,梳理总结了区内岩质滑坡发生的力学模式与斜坡地质环境、坡体结构之间的关系,进而选取控制滑坡发生的关键因素,运用ARCGIS软件的加权叠加功能定量划分了不同模式滑坡的易发区域,主要取得以下认识：（1）滑移—拉裂式滑坡主要发生在坡度30-45°的顺向飘倾坡内、滑移—溃曲式滑坡发生在坡度30-45°的顺向伏倾坡内、倾倒变形主要发生在岩层倾角大于65°的反向斜坡内;（2）区内倾倒变形易发区面积为8.73km2、滑移拉裂易发区面积为4.31m2、滑移溃曲易发区面积为3.28km2,以倾倒变形类型的滑坡为主,已发生滑坡与易发分区结果比对证明了滑坡易发分区与实际情况基本吻合。     

利用GPR天线-目标极化的瞬时属性分析方法探测LNAPL污染土壤

轻非水相流体(LNAPL)泄漏后会对土壤和地下水造成严重污染,为了准确探测出LNAPL泄漏范围,本文将GPR天线-目标极化的瞬时属性分析方法应用于轻非水相流体污染土壤探测的研究中。采用注入柴油的石英砂砂箱在实验室建立污染土壤模型,利用探地雷达对该污染土壤分别进行天线方位为0°、90°的测量。LNAPL土壤污染物形状、大小、结构并不规则,因此可以通过0°和90°方位天线测量来分析天线-目标极化特征,了解目标物的走向、形状等地下介质信息。通过对预处理后的包含天线-目标极化特征的信息进行瞬时属性分析,LNAPL污染范围可以被清晰地识别,提高了GPR探测能力。     

Investigation of gas content of organic-rich shale:A case study from Lower Permian shale in southern North China Basin,central China

Measuring gas content is an essential step in estimating the commerciality of gas reserves. In this study,eight shale core samples from the Mouye-1 well were measured using a homemade patented gas desorption apparatus to determine their gas contents. Due to the air contamination that is introduced into the desorption canister, a mathematical method was devised to correct the gas quantity and quality.Compared to the chemical compositions of desorbed gas, the chemical compositions of residual gas are somewhat different. In residual gas, carbon dioxide and nitrogen record a slight increase, and propane is first observed. This phenomenon may be related to the exposure time during the transportation of shale samples from the drilling site to the laboratory, as well as the differences in the mass, size and adsorptivity of different gas molecules. In addition to a series of conventional methods, including the USBM direct method and the Amoco Curve Fit(ACF) method, which were used here for lost gas content estimation, a Modified Curve Fit(MCF) method, based on the 'bidisperse' diffusion model, was established to estimate lost gas content. By fitting the ACF and MCF models to gas desorption data, we determined that the MCF method could reasonably describe the gas desorption data over the entire time period, whereas the ACF method failed. The failure of the ACF method to describe the gas desorption process may be related to its restrictive assumption of a single pore size within shale samples. In comparison to the indirect method, this study demonstrates that none of the three methods studied in this investigation(USBM, ACF and MCF) could individually estimate the lost gas contents of all shale samples and that the proportion of free gas relative to total gas has a significant effect on the estimation accuracy of the selected method. When the ratio of free gas to total gas is lower than 45%, the USBM method is the best for estimating the lost gas content, whereas when the ratio ranges from 45% to 75% or is more than 75%, the ACF and MCF methods, are the best options respectively.     

Occurrence and conceptual sedimentary model of Cambrian gypsum-bearing evaporites in the Sichuan Basin,SW China

During the Cambrian, gypsum-bearing evaporites formed in the Sichuan Basin, SW China. These rocks are important for oil and gas sealing, but details of their distribution and origin are not well established. This study examines the regional distribution and origin of the gypsum-bearing evaporites using a comprehensive analysis of drilling data from 34 wells, 5 measured cross-sections in the basin and surrounding area, and 96 maps of area-survey data. Results show that in the stratigraphic succession, the gypsum-bearing evaporites occur mainly in the Lower Cambrian Longwangmiao Formation, the Middle Cambrian Douposi Formation, and the Middle-Upper Cambrian Xixiangchi Group. Geographically, the rocks are found mainly in the southeastern part of the basin, and the distribution of deposits shows an overall SW-NE trend. The sedimentary environments for evaporite formation were evaporative lagoon and inter-platform basin in a platform setting. Gypsum was generated by the underwater concentration of sea water in a strongly evaporative environment. Both an evaporative restricted platform and a mixeddeposition restricted platform model appear to be applicable to the development of gypsum in the Sichuan Basin. The gypsum-bearing evaporites with the best sealing capacity are located mostly in the southeastern part of the basin. These constraints can be applied directly to regional exploration, and have implications for the regional paleogeography and paleoclimate.     

The Fragmentation in a Protoplanetary Disk and the Properties of the Resultant Self-Gravitating Clumps

We study the fragmentation properties in the protoplanetary disk and properties of the resultant self-gravitating clumps using our newly constructed disk model. Our disk model includes the mass inflall term from a molecular cloud core and the photoevaporation winds effect. We adopt the conventional fragmentation criterion to judge whether a protoplanetary disk can fragment. In this work, we follow our previous work to investigate the properties of the resultant self-gravitating clumps. In our calculation, the initial masses of the resultant self-gravitating clumps lie in the range of tens of M_J to more than one hundred of M_J, where M_J is the Jupiter mass. These initial masses can seemingly account for the masses of extrasolar planets in magnitude. We also calculate the subsequent gas accretion of clumps in 1.27 × 10⁴ yr after the formation of self-gravitating clumps. We find that the subsequent gas accretion of self-gravitating clumps is very efficient, and the clump masses grow to hundreds of M_J and the physical radii R_c of clumps increase to about 10 AU. Additionally, we also calculate the orbital migration of clumps. We find that most clumps have short migration timescale to be accreted onto the protostar, and only a small fraction of clumps have long migration timescale (>10⁶ yr) to successfully become gas giant planets. These results are consistent with previous studies.
