The Reliability Research on Water-Sealed Conditions of Underground Water-Sealed Oil Storage Caverns in Guangdong Huizhou, China

Article Preview

Abstract:

Reliability of water-sealed conditions is crucial to the safety of water-sealed oil-storage. With a case study of underground water-sealed oil storage cavern in Huizhou, a reliability evaluation index system of water-sealed conditions is estabilished based on the main factors influencing water-sealed conditions. Also, a zonal evaluation of water-sealed conditions of the cave rock mass ranging from 0m to -70m is made by Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process. Moreover, a three-dimensional numerical seepage model is established to study the seepage laws of the groundwater before and after the cavern excavation, and the water inflow during excavation and operation can be forecasted too. The results prove that the cavern site is suitable for the construction of large-scale underground oil storage caverns for its good water-sealed conditions and high reliability.
