Experimental Study on Creep Property of Similar Material for Jin Tan Salt Rock Gas Storage Medium
Uniaxial compression creep tests have been performed on a kind of rock salt similar material and laminated salt rock similar material on the base of salt rock gas-storage in Jintan. The creep tests show that the rheological property of the similar material is basically the same with the original rock. Under the uniaxial compression, the deformation gradually approaches to be constant after the early short stage of creep attenuation. The similar material shows stress-dependent behavior obviously under different stress stage, the greater the load the higher the creep ratio and creep deformation. A creep constitutive equation which is suitable to rock salt is used to the similar material, and it fits with the obtained creep data very well. The results show that the similar material developed in this passage has the same creep property as the original salt rock,and this material can be used to simulated the deformation and failure of underground gas storage constructed in bedded salt deposits.
