STORAGE OF NATURAL GAS IN SALT CAVERNS

Proceedings of SPE Northern Plains Section Regional Meeting, 1975
American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers, Inc. Discussion of this paper is invited. Three copies of any discussion should be sent to the Society of Petroleum Engineers office. Such discussion may be presented at the above meeting and, with the paper, may be considered for publication in one of the two SPE ...

Modeling and Analysis of Salt Cavern Natural Gas Storage

SPE Production and Operations Symposium, 2013
Abstract A rigorous modeling approach is developed for effective management and inventory analysis of natural gas storage in underground salt caverns by considering the interactions of storage gas with surface facilities through wells and surrounding salt formation.

Natural Gas Salt Cavern Storage Operating Pressure Determination

Technical Meeting / Petroleum Conference of The South Saskatchewan Section, 1997
Introduction TransGas Limited (TGL) currently owns and operates 24 salt caverns for the storage of natural gas. These storage caverns were developed in an extensive salt bed running through the province of Saskatchewan called the Prairie Evaporite, see figure 1 in the appendix.

Rock mechanics for gas storage in bedded salt caverns

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences, 1997
Abstract Liquefied petroleum gases and natural gas have been stored in caverns solution mined in domal and bedded salt for many years. The majority of the natural gas storage caverns in the United States have been developed in domal salt. This paper is a case history of three caverns that were developed specifically for natural gas storage in bedded ...

Status of Gas Storage in Salt Caverns in West Germany

SPE Gas Technology Symposium, 1989
Abstract In recent years the climb in demand for gas storage space has led to the expansion of existing and construction of new cavern storage facilities. More projects are currently under discussion. The planning and construction of gas caverns in West Germany has been the state of the art for many years. This is becoming

Phenomenological Inventory Analysis of Underground Gas Storage in Salt Caverns

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2002
Abstract This paper presents a model for effective management of natural gas storage in salt caverns. An interactive and dynamic phenomenological inventory model is developed that considers the effects of hydrocarbon thermodynamics, phase behavior, and heat and mass exchanges along cavern walls during gas loading, storage and unloading ...

Numerical Assessment of Hydrogen and Gas Mixture Storage in Salt Caverns

2023
With the UK recently doubling its hydrogen production goals to adjust to the market demand the necessity for storage is becoming realised [1]. There are several options for utility-scale storage including salt caverns, deep saline aquifers and depleted gas fields.

Storage of Natural Gas in Salt Caverns

1989
The storage of natural gas meets the following primary objectives: 1. Improvement of the economics of gas-transport- pipeline networks. 2. Compensation of seasonal fluctuations in consumption. 3. Covering demand fluctuations (Peak Shaving). 4.

Reliability Analysis of Completion Casing in Salt Cavern Gas Storage

ICPTT 2011, 2011
The loads subjected to completion casing of salt cavern gas storage is relatively complex, including internal and external pressures, creep loads, and axial forces, etc. Furthermore, these loads, dimensions, and properties of casing are random values and obey some distribution rules.

Effective Modeling and Analysis of Salt-Cavern Natural-Gas Storage

SPE Production & Operations, 2014
Summary A rigorous modeling approach is developed for effective management and inventory analysis of natural-gas storage in underground salt caverns by considering the interactions of storage gas with surface facilities through wells and surrounding salt formations. Computational-fluid-dynamics (CFD) and heat-transfer-modeling approaches
