Safety evaluation of salt cavern gas storage close to an old cavern
International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences, 2016Abstract Uniaxial compression tests, triaxial compression tests, Brazilian disk splitting tests, direct shear tests and triaxial creep tests have been carried out on samples cored from Jintan mining district to determine their mechanical parameters. Based on the formation characteristic and the Sonar survey data of an old cavern, a 3D geomechanical ...

Performance Prediction of Underground Gas Storage in Salt Caverns
Energy Sources, Part B: Economics, Planning, and Policy, 2007Abstract Underground gas storage is a common activity in countries with major transport and distribution gas pipeline infrastructures, which allows to efficiently resolve demand seasonality problems. Subsurface caverns in salt formations are being increasingly used for storage of natural gas.

Haze, Rain and Temperature Inversion in Gas-Storage Salt Caverns
56th U.S. Rock Mechanics/Geomechanics Symposium, 2022ABSTRACT: The brine sump at the bottom of a gas-storage cavern remains perennially colder than the rock mass at cavern depth, even a dozen years after cavern creation has been completed, resulting in an inversion of the temperature gradient in the lower half of the cavern in which convection is impeded.

Natural Gas Salt Cavern Storage Operating Pressure Determination
Technical Meeting / Petroleum Conference of The South Saskatchewan Section, 1997Introduction 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.

Modeling and Analysis of Salt Cavern Natural Gas Storage
SPE Production and Operations Symposium, 2013Abstract 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.

Rock mechanics for gas storage in bedded salt caverns
International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences, 1997Abstract 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 ...

Storage of Natural Gas in Salt Caverns
1989The 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.

Status of Gas Storage in Salt Caverns in West Germany
SPE Gas Technology Symposium, 1989Abstract 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, 2002Abstract 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 ...
