| Summary: | CO2 injection to strengthen shale gas development is a new technology to improve shale gas recovery and realize geologic sequestration. Many scholars have studied these aspects of this technology: mechanism of CO2 displacement CH4, CO2 and CH4 adsorption capacity, affecting factors of shale adsorption CO2, CO2 displacement numerical simulation, and supercritical CO2 flooding CH4 advantages. Research shows that CO2 can exchange CH4 in shale formations, improve shale gas recovery, on the other hand shale formations is suitable for CO2 sequestration because shale gas reservoir is compact. The supercritical CO2 has advantages such as large fluid diffusion coefficient, CO2 dissolution in water to form carbonic acid that can effectively improve the formation pore permeability etc., so the displacement efficiency of supercritical CO2 is high. But at present the technology study mainly focus on laboratory and numerical simulation, there is still a big gap to industrial application, need to study combined effect of influence factors, suitable CO2 injection parameter in different shale gas reservoir, CO2 injection risk and solutions etc. |
