Although several small underground water-sealed oil storage caverns have been built in China since the 1970s, there is still a lack of experience for large-volume underground storage in complicated geological conditions. The current design concept of water curtain system and the technical instruction for system operation have limitations in maintaining the stability of surrounding rock mass during the construction of the main storage caverns, as well as the long-term stability. Although several large-scale underground oil storage projects are under construction at present in China, the design concepts and construction methods, especially for the water curtain system, are mainly based on the ideal porosity medium flow theory and the experiences gained from the similar projects overseas. The storage projects currently constructed in China have the specific features such as huge scale, large depth, multiple-level arrangement, high seepage pressure, complicated geological conditions, and high in situ stresses, which are the challenging issues for the stability of the storage caverns. Based on years’ experiences obtained from the first large-scale （millions of cubic meters） underground water-sealed oil storage project in China, some design and operation problems related to water curtain system during project construction are discussed. The drawbacks and merits of the water curtain system are also presented. As an example, the conventional concept of “filling joints with water” is widely used in many cases, as a basic concept for the design of the water curtain system, but it is immature. In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of the conventional concept are pointed out, with respect to the long-term stability as well as the safety of construction of storage caverns. Finally, new concepts and principles for design and construction of the underground water-sealed oil storage caverns are proposed.展开更多

文摘结构面的几何参数和力学参数随机分布导致岩体工程的稳定性具有高度不确定性.以我国某地下水封石油储备库项目为背景,把结构面倾向、倾角、黏聚力及内摩擦角作为随机变量,运用可靠度理论,在数值模拟的基础上,研究了围岩块体稳定性和支护系统可靠性,并对支护参数进行检验与优化.结果表明:Ⅰ~Ⅳ级围岩块体稳定性可靠度指标分别为4.23,1.68,0.65和-0.07;对Ⅱ级、Ⅲ级和Ⅳ级围岩块体采取支护措施后,可靠度指标分别为3.3,3.0和2.0;并对其支护间排距进行优化,推荐值分别为2.8,2.0和1.6 m.
