ABSTRACT
Aquifer leakage recharge poses a prevalent challenge in coalbed methane (CBM) development, severely impeding its efficient production. This study focuses on the Sanjiao Block, located on the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin, and provides a comprehensive evaluation of the impact of aquifer leakage recharge on CBM well productivity, employing hydrochemical characteristics and numerical simulation. Fisher's discriminant analysis reveals a close association between external water sources for CBM wells in the Taiyuan Formation and the hydrodynamic environment in the western stagnant zone, hydrochemical characteristics resemble those from the Shanxi Formation; in the eastern strong runoff zone, water from the Taiyuan Formation directly contributes to CBM well development; in the central weak runoff zone, hydrochemical characteristics suggest mixed water sources from the Shanxi Formation and Taiyuan Formation. The numerical simulation employs orthogonal experiments to quantify the sensitivity of aquifer geological parameters to CBM production, ranked from strong to weak for aquifer types, leakage channel properties, and aquifer physical properties. The fundamental reason for disparities in the efficacy of leakage recharge lies in categorizing aquifers into finite and infinite recharges based on their water supply capacity. The properties of leakage channels, including the location and scale, manifest as effects on the magnitude and shape of gas production characteristics in infinite and finite recharge aquifers, respectively. Furthermore, a discriminant flowchart of CBM production is presented, delineating the production characteristics of CBM wells under the influence of aquifer leakage recharge into six patterns and illustrating their distribution in the study area. This discriminant process provides scientific guidance for analyzing CBM production characteristics and evaluating potential under the influence of aquifer leakage recharge.
