Abstract

Shallow gas fields are widely distributed globally. However, reservoirs are smaller than conventional gas reservoirs and their development is limited because of low reservoir pressure. For the past few years, there has been a decrease in new discoveries of gas fields and increased demand for gas has generated greater interest in developing shallow gas due to its low developmental cost. In addition, shallow gas has been discovered in Pohang, and thus the interest and need for shallow gas development research are increasing in Korea. In general, a shallow gas reservoir has a biogenic origin and its size and properties are highly diverse. Therefore, establishing a proper production scenario and utilization plan is critical. In this study, an analysis of the current developmental status of shallow gas fields was conducted and will be used as basic data for shallow gas development in Korea.

천부 천연가스전은 세계적으로 광범위하게 분포하고 있으나, 전통가스전에 비해 규모가 작고 저류층 압력이 낮아 개발이 제한적이다. 하지만 최근 신규 가스전 발견이 감소하고, 가스의 수요가 증가함에 따라 전통가스전에 비해 개발 비용이 낮은 천부가스전 개발에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 또한, 최근 포항에서 천부가스가 발견됨에 따라 국내에서도 천부가스전 개발 연구에 대한 관심과 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 일반적으로 생물기원 가스로 이루어진 천부가스전은 저류층 크기와 물성이 다양하여 적합한 생산 시나리오 및 활용계획을 수립하는 것이 중요하다. 이 연구에서는 천부가스전의 개발 현황에 대해 분석하였으며, 이는 국내 천부가스 개발 시 기초자료로 활용가능 할 것으로 사료된다.
