Abstract:Depleted reservoirs are widely used for underground gas storage due to their advantages of low construction cost and easy development. Under the in uence of complex geological conditions and frequent operations, the integrity of the wells in depleted reservoirs is prone to failure, which would potentially lead to gas leakage. In this study, by using a nite element based computational uid dynamics model, we have developed evaluation criteria for assessing the severity of the occurred wellbore integrity failure … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
