Geological and geophysical studies of the Nojima Fault from drilling: An outline of the Nojima Fault Zone Probe

Abstract The Nojima Fault Zone Probe was designed to study the properties and recovery processes of the Nojima Fault, which moved during the Hyogo-ken Nanbu earthquake ( M _JMA7.2) of 1995. Three holes, 500 m, 800 m and 1800 m deep, were drilled into or near the fault zone by the Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University. The 500 m and 800 m holes were drilled in November 1995, and in December 1996 the last hole reached its final depth of 1760 m. The significant results are: (i) Geological and geophysical reconstruction of the structure and evolution of the Nojima Fault was obtained; (ii) the maximum compression axis was found to be perpendicular to the fault, approximately 45° to the regional compression stress axis; (iii) micro-earthquakes (m = –2 to +1) were induced by water injections 1–3 km from the injection points in the 1800 m hole; (iv) the fault zone was measured to be 30 m wide from microscopic studies of core samples. Instruments such as three-component seismometers, crustal deformation instruments, and thermometers were installed in the holes.     

注水试验与放水试验求取渗透系数的差异

基于矿井涌水量计算及水资源评价需要,本文运用注水试验代替抽水试验,求取了太原组灰岩含水层的渗透系数。根据后期同一含水层井下放水试验资料,利用VISUAL MODFLOW建立了水文地质三维非稳定流数值模型,通过分区拟合调参,获得了含水层分区水文地质参数。通过对这两种试验求得的渗透系数进行比较,得出在裂隙介质中注水试验是放水试验所得渗透系数值的35.6%~50.8%。建议在不具备进行抽（放）水试验的条件下,可使用注水试验代替,所得渗透系数值乘以校正系数,用校正后的渗透系数来计算矿井涌水量。     

Natural 222Rn as a tracer of mixing and volatilization in a shallow aquifer during a CO2 injection experiment

This study aims to evaluate the application of ²²²Rn in groundwater as a tracer for monitoring CO₂ plume migration in a shallow groundwater system, which is important to detect potential CO₂ leakage in the carbon capture and storage (CCS) project. For this research, an artificial CO₂-infused water injection experiment was performed in a shallow aquifer by monitoring hydrogeochemical parameters, including ²²²Rn. Radon in groundwater can be a useful tracer because of its sensitivity to sudden changes in subsurface environment. To monitor the CO₂ plume migration, the data were analysed based on (a) the influence of mixing processes on the distribution of ²²²Rn induced by the artificial injection experiment and (b) the influence of a carrier gas role by CO₂ on the variation of ²²²Rn. The spatio-temporal distributions of radon concentrations were successfully explained in association with horizontal and vertical mixing processes by the CO₂-infused water injection. Additionally, the mixing ratios of each monitoring well were calculated, quantitatively confirming the influence of these mixing processes on the distribution of radon concentrations. Moreover, one monitoring well showed a high positive relationship between ²²²Rn and Total dissolved inorganic carbon (TIC) by the carrier gas effect of CO₂ through volatilization from the CO₂ plume. It indicated the applicability of ²²²Rn as a sensitive tracer to directly monitor CO₂ leakage. When with a little effect of carrier gas, natural ²²²Rn in groundwater can be used to compute mixing ratio of CO₂-infused water indicative of CO₂ migration pathways. CO₂ carrier gas effect can possibly increase ²²²Rn concentration in groundwater and, if fully verified with more field tests, will pose a great potential to be used as a natural tracer for CO₂.

Is there a role for potential supervised injection facilities in Victoria,British Columbia,Canada?

Supervised injection facilities (SIFs) are medical facilities where injection drug users can inject their illicit drugs under the supervision of nurses and doctors. Currently, there is only one legal SIF in operation in North America and it has been operating in Vancouver, British Columbia for over a decade. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the current facility needs to be expanded to other locations in British Columbia, Canada. We employ mathematical modeling to estimate the number of new human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C infections prevented based on the available secondary data. Additionally, we also estimate the number of prevented overdose deaths attributable to the SIF. With very conservative estimates, it is predicted that establishing two SIFs locations outside Vancouver in British Columbia’s capital city, Victoria, is cost-effective, with a benefit-cost ratio of 1.25:1. It appears that expanding SIFs to Victoria could offer significant savings for local health care institutions.     

Study on Seismicity Triggered by Water Injection in Mine Wells in Zigong Using ETAS Model

In order to reveal the relationship between water injection in mine wells in the Zigong area and seismicity,we divide the historical earthquakes of ML≥1. 2 into 3 phases according to seismicity behavior,and the ETAS model parameters are then inversed by the POWELL method. The results show that phase 1 and 2,in which there is no water injection,have moderate-to-low ratio of background earthquakes ( 40% ～ 50%),and aftershocks are relatively less for a single earthquake sequence. In phase 3,where there is wate...     

甘谷驿油田长6油层裂缝特征及对注水开发的影响

甘谷驿油田长6油层为低孔、特低渗透细喉型碎屑岩储层。根据地面相似露头裂缝观测、岩心裂缝描述、镜下薄片裂缝观测、地层倾角裂缝解释及注水开发生产动态表明,长6油层是地面以东西和南北向宏观构造裂缝发育为主、地下主要以东西向为主的微裂缝。这种裂缝在地下大部分呈孤立、闭合状,在现今北东向80°的最大水平主应力背景下,油井压裂投产使东西向微裂缝连通并优先开启,其次为北西向裂缝。南北向微裂缝始终处于挤压状态而闭合,因此,造成油田注水开发注入水沿东西向裂缝油井水串,南北向油井见效差。

Numerical modeling of formation damage by two-phase particulate transport processes during CO2 injection in deep heterogeneous porous media

Prediction of CO₂ injection performance in deep subsurface porous media relies on the ability of the well to maintain high flow rates of carbon dioxide during several decades typically without fracturing the host formation or damaging the well. Dynamics of solid particulate suspensions in permeable media are recognized as one major factor leading to injection well plugging in sandstones. The invading supercritical liquid-like fluid can contain exogenous fine suspensions or endogenous particles generated in situ by physical and chemical interactions or hydrodynamic release mechanisms. Suspended solids can plug the pores possibly leading to formation damage and permeability reduction in the vicinity of the injector. In this study we developed a finite volume simulator to predict the injectivity decline near CO₂ injection wells and also for production wells in the context of enhanced oil recovery. The numerical model solves a system of two coupled sets of finite volume equations corresponding to the pressure-saturation two-phase flow, and a second subsystem of solute and particle convection-diffusion equations. Particle transport equations are subject to mechanistic rate laws of colloidal, hydrodynamic release from pore surfaces, blocking in pore bodies and pore throats, and interphase particle transfer. The model was validated against available laboratory experiments at the core scale. Example results reveal that lower CO₂ residual saturation and formation porosity enhance CO₂-wet particle mobility and clogging around sinks and production wells. We conclude from more realistic simulations with heterogeneous permeability spanning several orders of magnitude that the control mode of mobilization, capture of particles, and permeability reduction processes strongly depends on the type of permeability distribution and connectivity between injection and production wells.
