Making sense of Isogeometric Analysis for geothermal applications: Parametric geomodelling (NURBS) for fast model construction, simulation and adaptation

Daniel Escallon, Denise Degen, s.Mohammad Moulaeifard, and Florian Wellmann

Geological modelling is an essential aspect of a wide variety of geophysical and geological investigations related to geo-energy exploration and monitoring. A commonly-applied procedure is to use 3D geological models (often referred to as static models) to characterise the spatial distribution of material properties, which are then used in subsequent process simulations. The physical processes are described with partial differential equations that can be solved using different numerical methods by creating a discretisation in the space of the geometric object (i.e., a mesh). However, mesh generation can be a time-consuming step that generally only allows an approximation of the true geometric model. Several methods have been proposed to resolve these issues. We investigate here the use of the isogeometric analysis (IGA) technique, which exploits the finite element method (FEM) to numerically solve differential equations without the need of creating a mesh. Instead, it uses computer-aided design (CAD) tools, specifically Non-Uniform Rational B-splines (NURBS), to accurately represent any form of conic sections geometry.

This presentation shows the link between NURBS representing geological interfaces and subsequent geothermal process simulations. The link is implemented in a user-friendly Python package (https://github.com/danielsk78/pygeoiga) with a simple but clear interface. It differs from other implementations by dealing with multipatch structures and focusing on geological modelling with multiple subdomains. A series of numerical examples are presented to show the use of the technique for solving the two-dimensional heat conduction problem. Results are contrasted to the results of a traditional FEM approach. The comparison shows that IGA requires fewer degrees of freedom (DoF) for convergence of the solution. Further, IGA provides a way to ease the workflow from the geological modelling to the results of process simulations, enabling tighter integration between modelling and simulation. Lastly, we describe shortly how the IGA concept can be implemented on top of existing standard FEM libraries.

Structural Geologic Modelling and Restoration Using the Ensemble Kalman Filter

David Oakley, Nestor Cardozo, Per Røe, and Ariel Almendral Vazquez

Structural restoration using kinematic principles of fault-related folding is a valuable tool in building realistic geological models. Models are, however, typically uncertain and non-unique. While data inversion methods can be employed to find a best-fit model and estimate uncertainty, their use is limited to relatively simple models involving a single fault in two dimensions. In this work, we employ an iterative form of the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) together with a kinematic model for deformation around normal faults to build and restore three-dimensional structural geologic models. The EnKF is ideally suited to data inversion problems that involve large numbers of model parameters and is frequently used in reservoir simulations, which often do not consider uncertainty in geologic structure. We develop a workflow in which fault geometry, the distribution of slip on a fault, and the geometry of folded horizons are all modelled using the EnKF. The models are constrained by observations of faults and horizons in the present deformed state together with the expectation that horizons should restore flat. We test two modelling approaches: a restoration-based approach in which the model is built in the deformed state and then restored, and a forward modelling-based approach in which the model is built in the restored state and then forward modelled to match present-day data. We test these methods first on a synthetic model involving a single fault and then on a real-world example involving five faults. Both the restoration- and forward modelling-based methods work well for the synthetic model, but forward modelling works best for the more complex real-world case study. The EnKF method provides not only a best-fit model but also an estimate of model uncertainty. The estimation of uncertainty is, however, hindered by the phenomenon of ensemble collapse, which results in underestimation of the uncertainty in model parameters at small ensemble sizes. We employ bootstrap-based localization and covariance inflation to help mitigate this issue and use a dummy parameter to identify whether significant ensemble collapse has occurred. While ensemble collapse remains a challenge in some cases, the EnKF nonetheless shows considerable promise as a tool for building complex many-parameter structural models that are kinematically restorable, and it holds the potential for future integration of structural modelling with other EnKF-based workflows in subsurface modelling.

Geographic Information System (GIS) as a basis for the next generation of hydrogeological models to manage the geothermal area Waiwera (New Zealand)

Michael Kühn and Thomas Kempka

The geothermal hot water reservoir below the small town of Waiwera in New Zealand has been known to the indigenous people, the Maori, for many centuries. Its use by European immigrants began in the 19^th century. Until the end of the 1960s, all production wells drilled for the warm water were artesian. But, triggered by overproduction, the water which has a temperature of up to 50 °C, has to be pumped up since then. In the 1970s, the warm water springs on Waiwera beach also dried up. Therefore, the Auckland Council implemented a water management plan for a future sustainable use of the area in the 1980s (Kühn and Altmannsberger 2016). Just recently, there have been reports about recovered, temporary artesian flow from several wells. Further, there is indication for a renewed activity of the hot springs at the beach (Präg et al. 2020). For a comprehensive understanding and an environmentally friendly and balanced long-term usage of the aquifer, a fairly complex hydrogeological model is required.

Various approaches for a quantified hydrogeological description of the Waiwera reservoir have been implemented since the 1980s. Some are data driven (Kühn and Schöne 2017, Kühn and Grabow 2021) and others process based (Kühn and Altmannsberger 2016, Somogyvári et al. 2019) to finally understand and assess the constraints and impacts on the system (Kühn and Schöne 2018). However, none of the models directly delivers all the results needed for an all-encompassing water management. Disadvantage of all previous work is the independent model set-up and usage of only some of the acquired monitoring and simulation results. We present now a Geographic Information System (GIS) as a data base which integrates all geoscientific information known about the geothermal area of Waiwera combined with software tools for management. This will be the basis of the next generation of hydrogeological models for the geothermal area.

Do tracer tests enable model-independent predictions of georeservoir output? two examples from Southern Germany, involving thermal drawdown and solute co-production

Horst Behrens Julia Ghergut, Bettina Wiegand, Bianca Wagner, and Martin Sauter

For geothermal reservoirs operated by production/re-injection wells, thermal lifetime is usually defined in terms of a temperature drop threshold, and estimated as a function of fluid turnover time and heat exchange surface-area-per-volume,

T_heat = R · T_fluid + D · σ² · T_fluid² ,

with T_fluid supposed to be measurable by means of a tracer test;
σ is rather difficult to infer from tracer signals alone.

For ‘aquifer’-like reservoirs, the linear term prevails:

R > (>>) 1 , D · σ² · T_fluid << 1

For fracture-dominated (‘petrothermal’) reservoirs, the quadratic term prevails:

R ≈ 1 , D · σ² · T_fluid >> 1

Deriving T_fluid from artificial-tracer signals looks 'model-independent', but is subject to large-time extrapolation uncertainty (which 'restores' model-dependence).

Unlike thermal forecasting, tracer-based prognosis of solute co-production (more precisely, of its lower-bound level, assuming conservative transport by fluid turnover only, non-'replenished' from adjacent rocks) isn't impeded by large-time extrapolation uncertainty, nor by reservoir model/parameter ambiguity, since mass output prediction as a function of time,

M_out (t) = (C_ini – C_resid) [ VOL_out(t) – ∫_o^t ∫_o^t' Q(t’) Q(t’’) g(t’’) dt’’ dt’ ]

requires just knowledge of conservative-tracer fluxes within the forecasting time horizon.

Once a tracer test was conducted in accordance with the rules of the art [usually including observance of flux-type B.C. for tracer input and fluid sampling, cf. Kreft_and_Zuber_1978], the reservoir can be treated like a 'black box' with 'response function' (Green’s kernel surrogate) g.

This approach is adequate for (conservative) solute co-production, but not for heat transport.

Tracer test results from a particular Upper-Jurassic (Malm) carbonate aquifer near Munich illustrate the issue with T_heat as a 'function' of T_fluid. Tracer signals available to date yield T_fluid in the range of months (still subject to extrapolation uncertainty), and are compatible with both fracture-dominated and ‘aquifer’-like representations of reservoir structure; ‘compatible’ σ values span four(!) magnitude orders.

By contrast, tracer signals from a fractured-porous reservoir, Eastern side of the Upper Rhine rift could be used to predict 'geothermal lithium' output (and its gradual depletion in reservoir fluid turnover), irrespective of reservoir model availability/parametrization. The non-trivial challenge, however, is to foresee and quantify overall WRI effects of ‘spent fluid’ re-injection, the latter being depleted of its particular micro-constituent (albeit at trace levels only), but likely acidized / 'unreliably' buffered at major-ion levels. WRI cannot be told from conservative-tracer signals; hydrogeochemical modeling (Kölbel_et_al._2020, Maier_et_al._2021) becomes indispensable.

Hydrogeochemical impact assessment of pumped hydro power storage in open-pit lignite mines

Tobias Schnepper, Michael Kühn, and Thomas Kempka

As recent developments regarding the increasing demand of renewable energy sources in the European energy sector demonstrate, the need for large-scale energy storage technologies intensifies. Since the availability of wind and photovoltaic energy are undergoing high fluctuations, excess energy has to be stored to be available at times of high energy demand. Implementation of pumped hydro power storage (PHS) plants in abandoned underground reservoirs are intensively studied as potential storage solution (e.g. Pickard, 2012), whereby open-pit lignite mines are also expected to contribute to this issue (Thema and Thema, 2019), but are hardly investigated, yet. PHS follows the concept of pumping and releasing water between two reservoirs located at different elevations.

The success of energy storage by PHS in abandoned mines highly depends on the geo- and hydrochemical processes in the reservoirs and the surrounding porous media (Pujades et al., 2018). Oxidation of sulphur bearing minerals, especially of pyrite, might trigger the generation of Acid Mine Drainage (AMD; Akcil and Koldas, 2006), which can impact groundwater chemistry as well as slope stability, and further induce corrosion at critical technical infrastructure (Pujades et al., 2018).

In the scope of the present study, we have investigated the major chemical reaction paths by numerical modelling to conceptualise comprehensive reactive transport simulations for environmental risk assessments. For that purpose, we considered available research findings from studies on the Lusatian and Rhenish lignite mining areas, and applied these to other European mining sites. Calcite buffering, mineral dissolution-precipitation balances, heavy metal contamination as well as mixing processes between the potential reservoirs and groundwater have been taken into account. In summary, geochemical impacts potentially occurring with PHS operation under hydrochemical boundary conditions representative for European open-pit lignite mines were investigated and quantified.

Life-span economic and environmental analysis of deep borehole heat exchanger coupled geothermal heat pump heating system with different drilling depths

Wanlong Cai, Fenghao Wang, Chaofan Chen, Zeyuan Wang, Jinghua Jiang, Olaf Kolditz, and Haibing Shao

Geothermal energy stored in the 1~2 km depth, which has advantages in terms of its continuity and sustainability, has attracted more attention in recent decades in the building heating industry. To meet the carbon-neutral prospect in the building sector, a new-type deep borehole heat exchanger (DBHE) is proposed to extract geothermal energy and has been utilized in Europe and northern China. The DBHE is typically drilled to more than 2000 m depth, and it is usually coupled with a heat pump to supply heat to the buildings. In this work, a dual-continuum finite element method was implemented in the open-source software OpenGeoSys to mimic the heat transfer process between the DBHE and the surrounding subsurface. After validating against in-situ experimental data of the pilot DBHE heating project in Xi’an, a heat pump model was also included in the OpenGeoSys model so that the entire heating system can be simulated over the long-term operation. Results show that the circulation temperatures of the DBHE have a decreasing trend during the long-term operation. Through the energy analysis, the amount of heat extracted by the DBHE was found to be mainly supplied by the energy stored within the surrounding soil. With different drilling depths of the DBHE, long-term simulation results illustrate that the heat extraction rate increases with deeper depth. After considering the electricity consumption of the heat pump and circulation pump, the Levelized cost of heating (LCOH) of the DBHE heating system was evaluated over its life-span cycle, and the optimal drilling depth of the DBHE was found to be 2600 m based on the specific geological properties of Weihe Basin, Xi’an. The proposing evaluation method provides a reference for decision-makers when designing the DBHE heating system.

Upconing of deep saline waters via Quaternary erosion windows considering varying hydrogeological boundary conditions

Elena Chabab, Michael Kühn, and Thomas Kempka

Intrusion of deep saline waters into freshwater aquifers does not only endanger the regional drinking water supply, but also rivers and stagnant waters as well as their fauna and flora are threatened by salinisation. The upconing of highly mineralised saline waters in large parts of the North German Basin is favoured by the presence of Elsterian glacial erosion windows in the Lower Oligocene Rupelian Clay, the most important confining unit in this region. Lower precipitation rates and decreasing groundwater levels as a consequence of global climate change, but also anthropogenic interventions, such as increasing extraction rates or the utilisation of the geological subsurface, decrease the pressure potential in the freshwater column and may possibly accelerate primarily geogenic salinisation processes in the coming years [1, 2].

In this study, density-driven flow and transport modelling [3] was performed to investigate the upconing mechanisms of deep saline waters across Quaternary window sediments in the Rupelian. First, the main variables influencing the dynamics of the freshwater/saltwater boundary were determined using generic 2D models. For a site-specific analysis along a 20 km long transect in the Federal State of Brandenburg, Germany, the geological/hydrogeological conditions were then integrated into the 2D models, starting from the Mesozoic strata in the bedrock of the Rupelian sequence as the model basis, up to the Quaternary unconsolidated rock series at the ground surface. At site, the Rupelian Clay has been partially eroded and salinisation in the hanging freshwater column is already detectable.

Simulation results show that the interactions between influencing variables, e.g., the regional groundwater flow and seasonal dynamics of the groundwater recharge rate, as well as anthropogenic interventions such as extraction rates of drinking water wells, have a significant influence on the groundwater pressure potential in the freshwater aquifer and associated saltwater upconing. The temporal development of saltwater intrusion shows up quite differently, depending on boundary conditions and also strongly depends on flow rates and cross-section of the Rupelian windows. Depending on the topography, the fluid density gradient and its effect on flow conditions and pressure potential, creates a dynamic between deep saline and shallow freshwater aquifers, with ascending ﬂow occurring locally in larger discharge areas. The next steps will comprise a 3D extension of the model as well as consideration of chemical rock-water interactions.

Study on tight sandstone gas accumulation process in transition zone of basin-margin: A case study of Duguijiahan block, Hangjinqi area, northern Ordos Basin, China

Hanwen Yu

Hangjinqi area is located in the northern margin of Ordos Basin in north China, the main body of which is on the inherited palaeo-uplift, and has been considered as a favorable oil-gas accumulation direction area. Duguijiahan block structurally located in the middle of Hangjinqi area, in the fault transition zone of Boerjianghaizi fault and Wulanjilinmiao fault, which is a transition area from quasi-continuous gas reservoir to continuous gas reservoir. By analyzing the reservoir characteristics and evolution process of tight sandstone gas reservoirs, the thermal maturation history of source rocks and the history of natural gas charging in Lower Shihezi Formation, this paper studies the natural gas accumulation process in the transition zone between quasi-continuous and continuous gas reservoirs, hoping to contribute to tight gas exploration in Ordos Basin and other basins with similar tectonic backgrounds in the world. The results show that the initial porosity of the Lower Shihezi Formation in Duguijiahan block is about 32~36%, and experienced the porosity decreasing of compaction (avg. = 18.58%) and cementation (avg. = 11.03%), and porosity increasing of dissolution (avg. = 1.24%). The sandstone densification (porosity <10%) occurred in the mid-late Jurassic (~170–150 Ma). Due to tectonic uplift from the end of the Early Cretaceous to the present day, the present porosity has basically inherited the characteristics of the end of the Early Cretaceous, and the average porosity is only 8.4%. On the other hand, based on the homogenization temperature test of fluid inclusions, laser Raman spectroscopy analysis of gas inclusions and basin simulation, the hydrocarbon charging time of the Lower Shihezi Formation gas reservoir in Duguijiahan block is early Cretaceous (~145-100Ma), indicating that the gas charging time of the gas reservoir in the study area is later than the reservoir densification time. Furthermore, the natural gas charging time in the study area is characterized by gradual charging from south to north, indicating that the early natural gas charging is mainly affected by the maturity of underlying source rocks. From the end of early Cretaceous to now, it is the adjustment period of natural gas accumulation in the study area. The continuous tectonic uplift leads to the decrease of geothermal temperature, the loss of reservoir pressure and the formation of fractures. The natural gas charged in the early stage gradually migrates and accumulates along the northern up-dip direction of the fracture zone. The Lower Shihezi Formation was pinched out in the northern Gongkahan uplift to form effective blocking. The migration process of natural gas has been confirmed by the present exploration findings, the relationship between porosity and permeability of reservoir physical properties and the difference of natural gas components in the north and south.

Verification of TRANsport Simulation Environment coupling with PHREEQC for reactive transport modelling

Svenja Steding, Michael Kühn, and Thomas Kempka

Many types of geological subsurface utilisation are associated with fluid and heat flow as well as simultaneously occurring chemical reactions. For that reason, reactive transport models are required to understand and reproduce the governing processes. In this regard, reactive transport codes must be highly flexible to cover a wide range of applications, while being applicable by users without extensive programming skills at the same time. In this context, the TRANsport Simulation Environment (Kempka, 2020) was coupled with the geochemical reaction module PHREEQC (Parkhurst & Appelo, 2013), providing multiple features that make it applicable to complex reactive transport problems in various fields. Code readability is ensured by the applied high-level programming language Python which is relatively easy to learn compared to low-level programming languages. In the present study, common geochemical benchmarks are used to verify the numerical code implementation.

Currently, the coupled simulator can be used to investigate 3D single-phase fluid and heat flow as well as multicomponent solute transport in porous media. In addition to that, a wide range of equilibrium and nonequilibrium reactions can be considered. Chemical feedback on fluid flow is provided by adapting porosity and permeability of the porous media as well as fluid properties. Thereby, users are in full control of the underlying functions and equations of state. Both, the solution of the system of the partial differential equations and PHREEQC module, can be easily parallelised to increase computational efficiency.

The benchmarks used in the present study include density-driven flow as well as advective and diffusive reactive transport of solutes. Furthermore, porosity, permeability and diffusivity changes caused by kinetically controlled dissolution-precipitation reactions are considered to verify the main features of our reactive transport code. In future, the code implementation may be used to quantify processes encountered in different types of subsurface utilisation, such as geothermal energy production, geological energy, CO₂ and nuclear waste storage.

Hydraulic effects of porous media hydrogen storage for different future energy supply systems

Firdovsi Gasanzade and Sebastian Bauer

Many countries worldwide have committed to mitigating global climate change by switching to renewable energy generation, leading to continuously increasing shares of renewable energy sources in the energy system. However, one major drawback is the strongly fluctuating nature of those energy sources. Power to gas technology to generate hydrogen and subsurface hydrogen storage is one of the options to balance this fluctuating availability. Depending on the specific development of the energy system, different scales of storage are needed with different scales of impacts on the subsurface that may arise. This study, therefore, quantifies the induced hydraulic effects of hydrogen storage in porous formations, accounting for four possible future energy system scenarios and based on an existing geological storage structure. The aim is to identify and quantify the large-scale and long-term hydraulic effects of the storage operations and to estimate the affected subsurface spaces using numerical simulation models.

The storage structure used was identified in a storage potential study and is located in the North German Basin at a depth of about 1000 m and consists of a Rhaetian sandstone formation. Formation permeability and porosity are derived from regional depth correlations, while boundary conditions are applied considering the local geological settings. For the storage operation, energy and mass balanced load profiles are derived from the four considered scenarios, with charging rates during times of surplus power varying from 1.9 GW to 6.4 GW and discharging rates during withdrawal from 4.7 GW to 15.9 GW, depending on the respective energy system scenario.

Simulation results show that up to 21 storage wells and 2.8 billion cubic meters of storage gas in place volume are required to support the required energy output for all scenarios considered. Scenario analysis shows that significant pressure responses at the well bottom hole are thus induced, which are limited to a geomechanically allowable range of 80 bar to 130 bar. Due to the high withdrawal rates required, storage design is mainly influenced by the lower pressure limit. In the far field, pressure responses of more than 3 bars and 5 bars are found within horizontal distances of up to 7.5 km and 5 km, respectively. The vertical pressure impact is much lower at 5 m and 20 m, respectively. This can be recalculated as a total impacted volume by 3 bars and 5 bars from 1.25×10⁹m³ - 4.63 ×10⁹m³ to 0.57×10⁹m³ - 1.10×10⁹m³, depending on the scenario, respectively. This study thus shows that for grid-scale energy storage subsurface space on the order of tens of millions of m³ for the hydrogen gas phase will be required, while a much larger volume of 4.6×10⁹m³ will be affected by pressure changes of 3 bar or more. On the other hand, at least from an energetic point of view the storage structure investigated is sufficient to accommodate the national storage demand. The study results and the approach presented can thus contribute during site selection and storage facility planning to characterize subsurface and energy system requirements.

Geochemical evolution and reaction mechanisms controlling groundwater chemistry in the Pra Basin (Ghana)

Evans Manu, Marco De Lucia, Anja Maria Schleicher, Thomas Kempka, and Michael Kühn

As the demand for water supply increases with population growth, the quality of ground and surface water resources is deteriorating rapidly in many regions worldwide, particularly in Ghana. This situation has put supply systems under severe pressure as many of the available water resources are polluted by anthropogenic activities such as mining, agriculture, domestic and industrial sewage. Ghana's water quality problems are not different from current global challenges, as many surface waters and some aquifers have been polluted by mining activities and to some extent also by agriculture and industrial seepage. The Pra Basin is one of the most affected basins in Ghana with a total area of around 2,300 km² and a population of over five million people. The economic history of the basin is unparalleled as it is home to the country's major mineral deposits, including gold, bauxite, manganese, and diamonds. Recent studies have shown significant amounts of water pollutants including mercury (Hg), arsenic (As), lead (Pb), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), cadmium (Cd), selenium (Se) and nitrate (NO₃). The underlying geology of the Pra Basin consists mainly of metasediments and granitoids. The occurrence of groundwater is controlled by the development of secondary porosities through fractures, joints, and faults. This study provides insights into the evolution and hydrogeochemical processes that control the groundwater quality in the Pra Basin. The methodology applied here includes field sample collection, statistical analysis of hydrochemical data, petrographic and mineralogical analysis of rock outcrops and geochemical modelling. Groundwater samples were taken from shallow (mainly hand-dug wells with depths <10 m) and deep aquifers (mainly boreholes with depths >30 m) throughout the basin. Samples were analysed for major ions, and trace metals using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES), Ion Chromatography (IC), and a Picarro L-2140i Ringdown Spectrometer. Multivariate statistical analyses, inverse and forward geochemical modelling were applied to the hydrochemical data of around 100 water samples. The mineral phases used as model input were obtained from X-ray Diffraction (XRD) measurements of rock outcrops from the study area and mainly include chlorite, albite, muscovite, biotite, and calcite. The analysis of the results shows that the geochemistry of the groundwater resources in the Pra Basin is mainly controlled by water-rock-interaction. Within the given uncertainty limits, the dissolution of carbonates and weathering of silicates are the drivers for the chemical development of the groundwater in the basin. The presented findings will support the development of sustainable water resources management strategies and contribute to mitigating future contamination.

Probability of contaminant migration from abandoned in-situ coal conversion reactors

In the context of a potential utilisation of coal resources located in the Mecsek mountain area in Southern Hungary (Püspöki et al.. 2012), an assessment of groundwater pollution resulting from a potential water-borne contaminant pool remaining in in-situ coal conversion reactors after site abandonment has been undertaken. The respective contaminants may be of organic (i.e., phenols, benzene, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, etc.) and inorganic nature (i.e., ammonia, mercury, zinc, cyanide, heavy metals, etc.), whereby data for the Mecsek coal has been derived from extensive laboratory testing.

The probability assessment was carried out by means of numerical simulations of fluid flow as well as contaminant and heat transport including retardation using the TRANsport Simulation Environment (Kempka, 2020). Hereby, the main uncertainties, e.g., changes in hydraulic gradient and hydraulic contributions of the complex regional and local fault systems in the study area, were assessed in a deterministic way to identify the parameters relevant for the overall sensitivity study. Using Monte-Carlo analyses and Latin hypercube sampling, the uncertainty bandwidths of water table, retardation factors, dispersion coefficients, hydraulic conductivities of aquitards, faults and aquifers as well as groundwater recharge were considered.

The simulation results demonstrate that fluid flow via the regional faults is the main driver for a potential contamination of the shallow groundwater aquifers. Consequently, the numerical simulation results on potential fault reactivation due to coal extraction (Hedayatzadeh et al., 2022) were taken into account in view of probable hydraulic conductivity changes in the regional fault systems and the rock matrix surrounding the abandoned reactors. The probabilities of groundwater aquifer contamination within a time horizon of 50 years are presented based on maximum contaminant concentrations, cumulative mass balances as well as migration distances of the contaminant plume. The results of this analysis are essential for mining authorities as well as potential stakeholders to improve the understanding on potential environmental impacts, and have been integrated into a specific toolkit for risk assessment (Tranter et al., 2022) for that purpose.

Fast digital rock upscaling: from Stokes equation to Darcy equation

Qinzhuo Liao, Gensheng Li, Zhongwei Huang, Mao Sheng, Jun Li, and Dongxiao Zhang

Permeability is a key parameter for characterizing fluid flow in digital rocks. It depends on pore geometry and topology and can be computed numerically via solving the Stokes equation. However, the associated computational effort can be enormous for large-scale models, even using the efficient Lattice-Boltzmann method. In this study, an efficient method is developed for computing the equivalent permeability of digital rocks by simplifying the Stokes equation to Darcy equation. The method is based on the idea that a 3D digital core can be approximated by the combination of multiple 2D slices/layers, and the property of each layer is governed by the Stokes equation. Specifically, to mimic the 2D fine-scale velocity solved from the Stokes equation, a local permeability is assigned according to the velocity for each voxel. In addition, the nearest distance from each voxel to the solid wall is used to approximate the 2D fine-scale velocity, without the need of solving the Stokes equation in 2D for each layer. By this means, the 3D Stokes equation can be simplified to multiple 2D cases that provide the local permeability distribution for the 3D Darcy equation, and thus the computational cost can be significantly reduced. Case studies have been conducted on various samples in different scales. The results demonstrate that the computed 3D permeabilities using finite difference method (based on the Darcy equation) agree well with those using Lattice-Boltzmann method (based on the Stokes equation), and a speedup factor of about O(10) is achieved. The method can be applied to both sandstone and carbonate rocks for fast estimation of block permeability.

Hysteresis in permeability evolution of a virtual sandstone simulated by mineral precipitation and dissolution

Maria Wetzel, Thomas Kempka, and Michael Kühn

Mineral dissolution and precipitation can substantially affect rock permeability, which is a critical parameter for a broad range of subsurface applications, including geothermal energy production, geological storage, petroleum engineering and subsurface contaminant transport. In order to quantify trends in rock properties, virtual experiments on digital pore-scale samples represent a powerful and flexible approach to fundamentally understand the impact of microstructural alterations on evolving permeability.

In the present study, cycles of secondary mineral precipitation and subsequent dissolution are simulated on a synthetic sandstone sample [1]. For that purpose, the flow velocity magnitude is used as a proxy for solvent flux to depict characteristic transport-limited alteration patterns, whereas the inner surface area is used to constrain reaction-limited processes [2,3]. The corresponding hydraulic property evolutions are computed for combinations of reaction- and transport-limited precipitation and subsequent dissolution. Hysteresis can be observed for most of the geochemical reaction pathways, where the permeability trend for the dissolution differs significantly from that of precipitation. Transport-limited mineral dissolution initially shows a considerably higher permeability increase due to the widening of existing main flow paths, whereas the subsequent dissolution of new flow paths leads to a comparably lower permeability increase. The determined discontinuity in permeability evolution clearly demonstrates that microstructural changes as the opening or closure of flow paths might not be simply an inversion of the geochemical processes on an identical reaction pathway. The simulated porosity-permeability relationships are further discussed in the context of property trends observed in nature. Current analytical approaches are not able to reflect the evolution for these dynamic processes, since they describe permeability as a simple function of porosity. Hence, pore-scale modelling approaches are required to describe permeability trends and further develop understanding of reservoir behaviour, since hydraulic property changes resulting from mineral precipitation and dissolution clearly depend on geochemical processes and their history.

Assessment of brittleness and hydrocarbon potential of deep Permian shales in Krishna Godavari Basin, India

Shubhangi Kala, Javaregowda Devaraju, and Mohammed Abdul Rasheed

The Permian-aged Kommugudem Formation has been identified as a potential candidate in the prospective Krishna Godavari basin for future shale gas exploration. Brittleness and hydrocarbon potential based on geochemical and mineralogical evidence is characterized from the conventional cores in the study area. According to petrographic, SEM, and XRD analysis, the shale is primarily composed of quartz, clays (kaolinite, chlorite and illite), siderite, muscovite, pyrite, and feldspar. The Mineralogical Brittleness Index (MBI) ranges from 60 to 80 percent, suggesting that the Kommugudem shale is a likely good fracking candidate. Natural microfractures in Formation can increase hydraulic fracturing performance by acting as hydrocarbon migration conduits and hydrocarbon storage sites. The low chemical maturity index of Kommugudem samples indicates an abundance of detrital minerals formed near provenance without significant recycling. Due to the insoluble nature and diagenetic immobility, the Nb and Th enrichment identified in Kommugudem samples further supports a possible detrital source of the quartz. Clay-sized microquartz cement seen in a few samples may bind silt-sized detrital quartz and promote brittleness. The development of recrystallized microquartz cement is also caused by the illitization of smectite clay, as evidenced by XRD data revealing the presence of illite. The mineralogical brittleness index does not take into account the mineral texture or the kind of clay mineral related. As a result, such computations must be used with caution. Kommugudem Formation is composed of Type III kerogen in admixture with Types II-III, with high TOC and Tmax predicting substantial organic matter concentration in the dry and wet gas windows. RockEval and FTIR examinations revealed that two wells had good hydrocarbon generation potential for oil and gas sources, while the other wells had comparatively lesser hydrocarbon potential. Brittleness appears to be substantially reliant on lithological heterogeneity, according to the proposed assessment. The examined area possesses lithological variability, and the Kommugudem shale shows compositional similarities to brittle sections of the Barnett and Marcellus shale plays. According to the integrated characterization, shale has high organic content and is brittle in nature. This comprehension is critical if the shale is to be considered for further investigation.

Ground subsidence and fault reactivation during in-situ coal conversion assessed by numerical simulations

Mansour Hedayatzadeh, Vasilis Sarhosis, Torsten Gorka, Mária Hámor-Vidó, and István Kalmár

One unconventional coal extraction method is in-situ coal conversion. In this process, the coal is gasified in an underground reactor. A crucial issue that should be considered in this approach is the assessment of short and long-term environmental hazards and risks to human health and the environment resulting from potential surface subsidence and fault activation in the presence of complex geological conditions. This research aimed to assess potential environmental impacts associated with a commercial-scale application of in-situ coal conversion in a high coal production area in the Maza-Varalja region in Hungary. The Maza-Varalja region is an environmentally protected forested area. In this research, the numerical modeling of surface subsidence and fault activation was implemented using the finite-volume numerical modeling software FLAC3D. A predictive three-dimensional geomechanical model has been developed using site-specific geological data. The material model is Mohr-Coulomb elastic-plastic. Zero thickness interfaces were employed to address the fault behavior with friction and cohesive characteristics. The in-situ stress was determined by geostatic loading and a horizontal stress factor. The boundary conditions were zero-displacement and positioned sufficiently far from the coal seams to not artificially influence the stress field. The initialized zone stresses were considered using the density of the zones above them and gravity. The horizontal to vertical stresses ratio was determined to be one. A series of sensitivity studies were conducted to address the importance of geologic parameters that have an impact on surface subsidence, fault activation, and pollutant migration to the surface. In order to achieve this, seven variables, including the unit weight, Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, friction angle, cohesion, fault friction, and excavation sequence, were considered. Sixty-six simulations were undertaken and analyzed. The simulation results demonstrate that surface subsidence is affected by the average Young’s modulus of the geological strata and the fault activation to the friction angle of the faults. Also, shallower seams are more likely to produce surface subsidence, while as excavation depth increases, surface subsidence decreases. The model's results have been used to develop an Environmental Hazard and Risk Management toolkit (Tranter et al., 2022) for planning and decision-making processes during in-situ coal conversion to ensure that environmental risks and mitigation actions are clearly quantified and outcomes forecasted.

Environmental hazard quantification toolkit based on modular numerical simulations

Morgan Tranter, Svenja Steding, Christopher Otto, Konstantina Pyrgaki, Mansour Hedayatzadeh, Vasilis Sarhosis, Nikolaos Koukouzas, Georgios Louloudis, Christos Roumpos, and Thomas Kempka

Comprehensive risk assessments for subsurface utilisation projects such as in-situ coal conversion, deep geothermal energy, geological storage, and waste disposal are implemented to a limited extent in common practice. The impacts of subsurface processes on environmental hazards (e.g., migration of groundwater-borne contaminants, induced seismicity, and subsidence) are often convoluted and therefore not trivially to predict. Furthermore, decisions on project feasibilities are commonly based on expert knowledge subject to non-standardised approaches. However, an objectively and transparently developed risk assessment is imperative for a publicly accepted, long-term economic and environmentally friendly design of future subsurface utilisation.

We propose a new environmental hazard quantification framework based on modular simulations. The aim is to create a uniform basis for both project developers and authorities to carry out risk analyses. The approach streamlines state-of-the-art numerical models [1,2], accounting for multiphase flow, geomechanics, geochemistry, and heat transport, to determine the likelihood and severity of hazards. The method uses the results of the computational expensive Monte Carlo simulations of each module to train gradient boosting machine learning algorithms. These surrogate models facilitate loose coupling within the framework and a seamless integration into a graphical user interface for demonstrating hazard probability distributions.

The approach was applied to two example study areas with complex geological settings as part of a risk assessment for in-situ coal conversion. A substantial rock volume is extracted during this operation, and a contaminant pool is potentially left behind, which may put the environment at risk. With our presented approach, the shortcoming of using conceptually simplified models are substantially reduced, since subsurface complexities are accounted for. The transparency of the assessment basis should generally increase the acceptance of geoengineering projects, which is considered one of the crucial aspects for the further development and dissemination of geological subsurface utilisation.
