Abstract

This article consideres issues of geodynamic monitoring during the construction and operation of underground gas storage facilities. Existing methods of geodynamic monitoring used in Russia and other countries are reviewed. A brief overview of the accidents occurred during the construction and operation of underground gas storage facilities is presented. A suggestion is put forward to expand the scope of geodynamic monitoring carried out, taking into account current thinking on the nature of geodynamic hazard involved in operation of engineer constructions located underground

Highlights

  • Underground gas storages (UGS) are currently in operation in many countries of the world [1]

  • Geodynamic monitoring of operating UGS is obligatory, and this is regulated by standard process documentation

  • This article deals with the current state and issues of geodynamic monitoring management at UGSs

Summary

Introduction

Underground gas storages (UGS) are currently in operation in many countries of the world [1]. There are 23 operating underground gas storage facilities in the Russian Federation. The operation of UGS is a sophisticated technological process where standard operating conditions depend on many factors. The requirements for environmental integrity during the construction and operation of UGSs are strictly regulated by legislative and statutory documents of the Russian Federation. Geodynamic monitoring of operating UGS is obligatory, and this is regulated by standard process documentation. An overview of these papers is presented in [2]. This article deals with the current state and issues of geodynamic monitoring management at UGSs
