Study of Impact of Sediment on the Stability of Salt Cavern Underground Gas Storage
The utilization of sediment voids for natural gas storage represents the future direction of salt cavern underground gas storage (UGS) in China. In this study, we first analyzed the way in which the sediment interacts with the salt caverns and the ...

A salt cavern abandonment test
Thousands of caverns have been leached out from deep salt formations. They are used for saturated brine production and/or hydrocarbons storage. They will be abandoned some day: the access well will be plugged with cement, isolating a large bubble of saturated brine.

Multiphase Flow and Cavern Abandonment in Salt [PDF]
This report will explore the hypothesis that an underground cavity in gassy salt will eventually be gas filled as is observed on a small scale in some naturally occurring salt inclusions. First, a summary is presented on what is known about gas occurrences, flow mechanisms, and cavern behavior after abandonment.
