摘要

矿物结垢是地热田的一个主要问题。它对电厂的性能造成不利影响,因为矿物沉淀和堵塞设施,影响蒸汽生产。本文利用CHIM-XPT(2016)确定了位于菲律宾Albay Tiwi地热田生产部门之一Matalibong部门的1井中导致方解石,黄铁矿和硬石膏形成矿物鳞片的过程。进行了油藏水的重建、冷却、绝热沸腾、流体-流体混合和等温模拟。除了确定的温度和压力外,流体流速和井筒几何形状(管长和井筒内径)也被认为是矿物结垢形成的因素。地球化学模拟结果表明,1井矿物结垢可能是冷泉水与改造储层水混合绝热沸腾冷却的产物。关键发现表明,在恒定温度下,由于流体流速相对于其深度较低,压力降低,导致矿物,特别是硬石膏的形成,从而发生沸腾事件。流体流速的减小也会引起绝热沸腾。动力学可以促进绝热沸腾,其中压力变化由于流体流速条件导致矿物鳞片的形成。随着对1号井中方解石、黄铁矿和硬石膏形成机理的进一步了解,通过对井中流体流速的适当监测和控制,可以避免或减少矿物垢的形成。

Modeling Mineral Scaling in Matalibong Sector of Tiwi Geothermal Field, Albay, Bicol, Philippines
Mineral scaling constitutes a major problem in geothermal fields. It imposes adverse impacts on the performance of the power plant as mineral precipitates and clogs facilities, affecting steam production. This paper identifies the processes leading to the formation of calcite, pyrite, and anhydrite as mineral scales in Well-1 located at the Matalibong sector, one of the production sectors in Tiwi Geothermal Field, Albay, Philippines, using CHIM-XPT (2016). Reconstruction of reservoir water, cooling, adiabatic boiling, fluid-fluid mixing, and isothermal simulations were performed. In addition to established temperature and pressure, fluid flow rate and wellbore geometry (pipe length and wellbore inner diameter) were considered as factors in mineral scale formation. Results of the geochemical modeling showed that the mineral scaling in Well-1 could be a product of adiabatic boiling and cooling of mixed cold spring water and reconstructed reservoir water. Key findings show that at a constant temperature, a boiling event occurs when pressure is reduced due to a lower fluid flow rate with respect to its depth leading to the formation of minerals, specifically anhydrite. Decreasing fluid flow rate also triggers adiabatic boiling. Kinetics can promote adiabatic boiling where pressure changes due to fluid flow rate conditions leading to the formation of mineral scales. With this better understanding of how calcite, pyrite, and anhydrite were formed in Well-1, adiabatic boiling and, thus, the formation of the mineral scales can be avoided or minimized by proper monitoring and control of the fluid flow rate in the well.
