Pilot Abandonment Test of a Very Deep Gas Storage Salt Cavern [PDF]
As a result of knowledge gained initially from a series of succinct sealed well and cavern field tests performed in the late 1980s and early 1990s by Gaz de France (EZ58; EZ53), issues related to the long term abandonment of salt caverns became more focused.

Solution-mining-under-nitrogen technology for salt-cavern gas storage and field test
Since the salt cavern gas storage was constructed in China, diesel blanket has always been used to control the cavern shape, which is costly and polluting. Therefore, nitrogen blanket is proposed for the leaching of cavern.

Mathematical model of salt cavern leaching for gas storage in high-insoluble salt formations [PDF]
AbstractA mathematical model is established to predict the salt cavern development during leaching in high-insoluble salt formations. The salt-brine mass transfer rate is introduced, and the effects of the insoluble sediments on the development of the cavern are included. Considering the salt mass conservation in the cavern, the couple equations of the
