Introduction Milankovitch theory has extensive application in sequence stratigraphy and the establishment of time scales. However, it is rarely applied to shallow strata rich hydrates. Cyclostratigraphic analysis Quaternary unconsolidated sediments can help identify climate sea level changes that correspond orbital cycles improve our understanding dynamic evolution Methods Using natural gamma-ray log data from deepwater area well W01 Qiongdongnan Basin, cycle was conducted primary astronomical period W01. Anchored existing AMS-14 C age bivalve shell as reference point, an scale established. Simultaneously, through analyses major trace elements total organic carbon content (TOC) sediment samples, how influenced past environmental conditions. Furthermore, employing sedimentary noise models, relative change reconstructed. Results Sedimentary 27.34 m 6.73 were identified GR W01, corresponding periods 405 kyr 100 eccentricity, with a duration approximately 2.5 Myr. The spectral paleoenvironmental proxies reveals 27 m, while model reconstructs fluctuating rise change. An obliquity modulation 170 TOC data, which may reflect combined effects other parameters. Discussion Spectral indicators showed long eccentricity had varying degrees influence on paleoclimate, paleosalinity, paleoredox Additionally, 1.2 Myr significant factor influencing during early Pleistocene South China Sea (SCS).

This study aims to solve the problem of recovery efficiency natural gas hydrate being affected by a large amount mud and sand in solid fluidization mining hydrate. Therefore, new method for separation situ sediment spiral-swirling downhole is proposed, corresponding numerical simulation model established realize analysis verification key flow field parameters such as velocity, pressure, sediment, phase distribution. The results show that velocity mixed slurry presents an ‘M’-shaped symmetrical distribution, near wall separator can obtain larger which beneficial mud–sand static pressure shows axisymmetric distribution decreases first then increases, indicating increases with increase radial position, closer wall, greater slurry. Near separator, volume fraction reaches maximum. In contrast, minimum, confirms effect sediments be realized, thereby improving exploitation designed spiral cyclone coupling provides solution solving removal exploitation.

Natural gas hydrates, solid crystalline structures formed by the combination of natural and water molecules under high-pressure low-temperature conditions, are regarded as a promising clean energy source. Electrical resistivity serves fundamental petrophysical parameter for quantifying hydrate saturation in sand-dominated sediments, with its sensitivity to pore-filling morphology distribution patterns. An integrated experimental system combining in-situ CT scanning measurement was developed investigate tetrahydrofuran (THF) formation dynamics quartz sand sediments. We prepared four distinct THF solutions represent different regimes, lowered temperature within reactor containing grains, continuously monitored electrical sediments during formation. Additionally, used acquire three-dimensional grayscale images at varying saturation. The data revealed pronounced deviations from classical Archie’s equation, demonstrating complex behavior between index scan demonstrate salting-out effect process. precipitation dissolved salts significantly increased salinity water, resulting corresponding decrease due enhanced ionic conductivity. phenomenon impedes kinetics, causing substantial divergence measured thermodynamic equilibrium prediction. When effects salt phenomena properly accounted for, index-water relationship exhibits excellent agreement law, enabling reliable estimation quartz-dominated

This research explores the geomechanical challenges associated with gas hydrate extraction in submarine slope zones, a setting posing high risk of significant geological calamities. We investigate and wellbore deformations driven by decomposition within subsea environment. Utilizing Abaqus, fluid-solid-thermal multi-field coupling model for reservoirs was created. Hydrate during drilling is minimal, resulting minor formation deformation near wellbore. However, year production caused maximum displacement up to 7 m formation, highlighting landslides. indicates need meticulous surveillance subsidence wellhead equipment displacement. In aftermath hydrate-induced landslide, both layer overlying strata descend together, inflicting considerable damage on Our study presents holistic examination interplay between environmental geomechanics risks engineering structure instability stability development, providing crucial insights enhancing safety measures production, ensuring stability.
