摘要Jinping traffic tunnel is one of the deepest traffic tunnels in the world with a maximum overburden of 2375 m and the overburden over 73%of its total length is larger than 1500 m.The tunnel is 17.5 km long and designed to provide a shortcut road between two hydropower stations:Jinping I and Jinping II of the Jinping Hydropower Project,located on Yalong River,Liangshan State,Sichuan Province,China.The tunnel is so deep that building any shafts is impossible.The construction starts from both ends(east and west ends),and the construction length from the west end is 10 km with a blind heading.This paper deals with an overview of this project and analysis of the engineering features,as well as key technologies developed and applied during the construction,including geological prediction,rock burst prevention under a super high in-situ stress,sealing of groundwater with a high pressure and big flow rate,ventilation for a blind heading of 10 km,wet spraying of shotcrete at zones of rock burst and rich water,etc.The application of the new technologies to the construction achieved a high quality tunnel within the contract period.

摘要Shale gas resources in the Lower Silurian Longmaxi,southern Sichuan Basin,are huge,where,the geological setting,unlike that in North America,is quite complicated and ground surface infrastructure is poor.Therefore,adaptable key technologies will be essential to achieve commercial exploitation of shale gas there.In the case study of the Changning-Weiyuan National Shale Gas Demonstration Zone,six series of key techniques were summarized in comprehensive geological evaluation,development optimization,fast and superior drilling of horizontal wells,horizontal-well volumetric fracturing,cluster-well and factory-like operation in well blocks,and highly-efficient and clean exploitation.The above techniques were applied in this field after three rounds of adjustment and optimization,the resulted production rates of shale gas wells were getting higher and higher and the single-well estimated ultimate recovery(EUR)was also rising.Compared with that in the first round,the average EUR of wells in the third round was increased by 128%.In conclusion,the application practices prove that the above series of key techniques with adaptation and flexibility provide a robust technical support for the rapid output of shale gas production in South Sichuan Basin.
摘要The Yuanba Gasfield is a large gasfield discovered by Sinopec in the Sichuan Basin in recent years,and another main exploration area for natural gas reserves and production increase after the Puguang Gasfield.The ultra-deep sour gas reservoir in the Yuanba Gasfield is characterized by complicated geologic structure,deep reservoirs and complex drilled formation,especially in the continental deep strata which are highly abrasive with low ROP(rate of penetration)and long drilling period.After many years of drilling practice and technical research,the following six key drilling and completion technologies for this type reservoir are established by introducing new tools and technologies,developing specialized drill bits and optimizing drilling design.They are:casing program optimization technology for ROP increasing and safe well completion;gas drilling technology for shallow continental strata and high-efficiency drilling technology for deep high-abrasion continental strata;drillingfluid support technologies of gaseliquid conversion,ultra-deep highly-deviated wells and horizontal-well lubrication and drag reduction,hole stability control and sour gas contamination prevention;well cementing technologies for gas medium,deep-well long cementing intervals and ultra-high pressure small space;horizontal-well trajectory control technologies for measuring instrument,downhole motor opti-mization and bottom hole assembly design;and liner completion modes and completion string optimization technologies suitable for this gas reservoir.Field application shows that these key technologies are contributive to ROP increase and efficiency improvement of 7000 m deep horizontal wells and to significant operational cycle shortening.

摘要As the mission needs of the autonomous underwater vehicles(AUV) have become increasingly varied and complex,the AUVs are developing in the direction of systematism, multifunction, and clustering technology, which promotes the progress of key technologies and proposes a series of technical problems. Therefore, it is necessary to make systemic analysis and in-depth study for the progress of AUV's key technologies and innovative applications. The multi-functional mission needs and its key technologies involved in complex sea conditions are pointed out through analyzing the domestic and foreign technical programs, functional characteristics and future development plans. Furthermore, the overall design of a multi-moving state AUV is proposed. Then, technical innovations of the key technologies, such as thrust vector, propeller design, kinematics and dynamics, navigation control, and ambient flow field characteristics, are made, combining with the structural characteristics and motion characteristics of the new multi-moving state AUV. The results verify the good performance of the multi-moving state AUV and provide a theoretical guidance and technical support for the design of new AUV in real complex sea conditions.

摘要Hydropower development in China is concentrated in the country's western regions.Among all the rivers in China,the lower course of the Jinsha River contains the richest hydro-energy resource,and therefore,4 mammoth hydropower plants are under construction on this particular section of the river at Wudongde,Baihetan,Xiluodu,and Xiangjiaba.The water-blocking structures of the hydropower facilities at Wudongde,Baihetan and Xiluodu are all arch dams of around 300 m high.In view of changes in the geological conditions at the foundation of the Xiluodu dam on the riverbed after excavation started,the designs of expanding foundation surface excavation and dovetailing the dam body and foundation rock on both upstream and downstream sides were introduced,allowing the arch dam and foundation to fit each other and improving the stress conditions of the dam body and foundation.By dividing the dam body into various concrete sections,the dynamic properties of concrete were adequately adjusted to the distribution of stress in the dam body.In addition,the use of the most optimal concrete material and mixture ratio allowed thermodynamics of concrete to satisfy the requirements of the strength,durability,temperature control and crack prevention of the concrete.Moreover,rigorous temperature control measures were introduced to prevent harmful cracking,thus enhancing the integrity of the arch dam.Furthermore,sophisticated construction machinery,scientific testing methods,and sound construction techniques were employed to ensure the uniformity and reliability of concrete placement.The "Digital Dam" for the Xiluodu project,which is based on the theory of total life cycle,has supplied strong support for construction process control and decision-making.
