Abstract

The chemical composition of brines of fluid inclusions of different genesis has established the peculiarities of mineralogenesis of the Wenkou Depression of the Dawenkou Basin. The content of K+, Mg2+ and SO42− in sedimentary brines ranged from 27.6 to 32.9, 41.5 to 32.7, and 66.6 to 33.3 g/l, respectively. The obtained data on the chemical composition of sedimentary brines and the values of δ34S (+10.9…+35.7 ‰) and δ18O (+14.7…+19.4 ‰) of anhydrite do not exclude the influence of marine transgressions on the continental halogenation of the Dawenkou Basin. The main source of sulfate in the Basin was ancient evaporites in the Yi-Meng Mountains of Shandong Province, which were eroded by surface waters. At the post-sedimentation stage, the salt strata were heated to temperatures of about 45 and 63 ℃. Halite recrystallization occurred at elevated pressure, which was tens of times higher than normal atmospheric pressure.

Weakly mineralized waters enriched in Ca(HCO3)2, which entered the basin, led to the precipitation of gypsum or glauberite. Taking into account the high potassium content in the brines, which is close to the beginning of sylvite deposition, one can expect polyhalite (due to newly formed gypsum) mineralization to be found in the sediments.

The chemical composition of post-sedimentation brines is characterized by a wide fluctuation in the content of the main ions. In the salt-bearing stratum, brines of various compositions circulated: a) with a sharply increased (relative to the sedimentary) content of potassium, magnesium and sulfate; b) with an increased content of potassium, magnesium and a reduced content of sulfate; c) with a reduced content of potassium and an increased content of magnesium and sulfate; d) with a significantly reduced concentration of all ions.

In the XZK-101 well under investigation, no other salt minerals were found except halite, mirabilite, and glauberite. However, according to the data from the study of the chemical composition of brine inclusions in halite, in the immediate vicinity of its location in the Wenkou Depression, one should expect the detection of kieserite, langbeinite, and other salt minerals in salt deposits. The formation of langbeinite was facilitated by elevated temperatures and pressure. The brines found with an abnormally high magnesium content are apparently residual brines (reaction products) during the formation of langbeinite due to unstable sedimentary hexahydrite and sylvite.

According to the obtained data on the chemical composition of brines of inclusions in halite, the boundaries of both the halite and potassic facies on the existing facies maps of the basin are subject to revision.

Abstract

The European course towards decarbonization of the economy and energy systems is directly related to the reduction of the volume of extraction and use of fossil fuels. For Ukraine, large-scale restructuring of the coal industry, modernization of mining regions and thermal power are priority tasks. On the one hand, it is necessary to radically reduce the negative impact of extraction and use of fossil fuels on the environment, and on the other hand, we must ensure the effective involvement of the potential of mining systems in the sustainable development of territories, in particular by introducing modern innovative methods of using existing geological objects and mineral resources.

In the article, using the example of coal massif of the Lviv-Volyn Coal Basin, a geological analysis of the formation of methane-containing coal gas traps is carried out and the dependence of the volume of coal gas release on the methane content of coal deposits is shown; for the extraction of a methane-gas mixture from a coal massif, a technological scheme is proposed, which is characterized by the fact that it step by step selects an underground block, to which gas production wells are drilled from the surface and coal gas is extracted, in the next step an adjacent underground block is selected, additional gas production wells are drilled and coal gas is extracted from the adjacent block, by repeating the blocks selection and gas extraction methane-gas mixture from all coal massif is removed; the scheme of an innovative complex has been developed that uses a methane-gas mixture of coal massifs to simultaneously produce of hydrogen, ammonia, and methanol, such complexes can be recommended for the sustainable development of mining enterprise territories.

Abstract

This article explores the historical progression of research into titanium-bearing alluvial deposits, focusing on the Volyn titanium-bearing region in Ukraine. The study highlights three primary stages of exploration: the early period, the Soviet era, and the contemporary period following Ukraine’s independence, each representing a unique phase in the understanding and utilization of titanium mineral resources.

During the early period, titanium minerals were occasionally mentioned in studies, mostly as incidental observations of titanium-bearing crystalline rocks, with limited systematic interest in their exploration. However, the Soviet era marked a transformative phase in the study of these resources. As demand for rare elements surged, comprehensive geological exploration efforts intensified. Geological expeditions and research groups were established, laying the groundwork for a more structured approach to titanium resource exploration. This era also saw the formation of the “Ukrainian Titanium School”, which brought together researchers and production teams for collaborative study and development of titanium deposits.

The contemporary period, beginning in 1991, is characterized by advancements in methodologies and technologies. Research on titan-zirconium placers in the Volyn region has continued, now emphasizing the role of modern techniques, including Geographic Information Systems.

Abstract

The article discusses theoretical and practical aspects of the use of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy combined with chemometrics for express analysis of peat. Near infrared spectroscopy provides a significant amount of information about complex organic systems, including irregular polymers such as peat. Compared to classical analytical methods, NIR spectrometry allows analysis without complex sample preparation with analysis time measured in minutes. Since the results represent the intensity of radiation reflection in the overtone range of fundamental frequencies, their processing requires the use of special mathematical and statistical methods. The use of the Chemoface software package modules (PLS method) for quantitative analysis of the technical and chemical properties of peat based on NIR spectroscopy data has demonstrated the possibility of obtaining calibration models that allow for the quick and reliable analysis of this raw material, including in field conditions. The conducted studies have shown that using a spectrometer that analyzes reflected (absorbed) radiation in the near-infrared spectrum and based on the averaged spectral characteristics of the reflected (absorbed) radiation and using chemometric software, it is possible to calculate the chemical and technological characteristics of peat. The analysis procedure consists of the following stages: selection of a sample representing the entire batch of raw materials; irradiation of the sample with radiation containing a significant proportion of energy in the near-infrared spectrum; analysis with a detector of reflected (absorbed) radiation and construction of an integral spectral characteristic of the sample; compilation of a calibration model using chemometric software; processing of the obtained spectrum using chemometric software with subsequent calculation of the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the raw materials. The proposed method (express analysis) for rapid determination of qualitative and quantitative characteristics of fossil carbon raw materials of organic origin, namely lowland and highland peat of various degrees of decomposition, can be used to establish its compliance with current norms, standards and technical conditions for moisture content, ash (inorganic) residue content and acidity (pH).

Abstract

The implementation of the principle of ecological conversion during the extraction of hydrocarbons at the Dobrivliany gas condensate field consists in the return of highly mineralized and enriched with microcomponents and organic matter produced waters to depleted horizons.

From 2022 the volumes of produced water reach 275 m3/year. From the beginning of the development of the field to the end of 2023, 572.37 m3 of produced water were from the beginning of the development of the deposit to the end of 2023, 250 m were accumulated and utilized.

It has been established that the chemical parameters of produced waters are identical to those of the aquifers of the field. They have a calcium-sodium chloride, magnesium-sodium composition, with increased mineralization values. Total dissolved solids of waters, depending on the aquifer from which they came, is 28.5–100.3 g/dm3. Its lower values are characteristic of the Badenian-Sarmatian aquifer complex, while higher values are characteristic of the Mesozoic-Carpathian complex. The values of total dissolved solids of these waters almost do not change during 2017–2023.

Total dissolved solids of waste water mixtures in collection tanks (settling tanks) during the period of analytical research was 31.72–77.66 g/dm3. The waters were characterized by a slightly acidic reaction (pH 6.07–6.80). The content of total Ferrum does not exceed 16.8 mg/dm3, ammonium – 105.1 mg/dm3, Bromine – 193 mg/dm3, Iodine – 42.3 mg/dm3, petroleum products – no more than 7.3 mg/dm3, methanol – < 0.1 mg/dm3.

Injection of produced waters is carried out through well No. 4. The reservoir-collector ND-12a in this well is characterized by favourable conditions: average porosity – 19.5 %, permeability – 0.1–0.8 mD, thickness – up to 86 m. It is well isolated by waterproof rocks that provide hydrodynamic closure of the system. The acceptability of well No. 4 is 15 m3/h (360 m3/day). The geochemical compatibility of produced waters with waters of the horizon ND-12a was evaluated, which does not involve precipitation of salts and clogging of the pore space. The results of monitoring studies of the chemical composition of the waters of the Quaternary aquifer of the field site and nearby settlements indicate the absence of the impact of the utilization of produced waters.

Abstract

All types of combustible minerals are located on the territory of Ukraine – oil, natural gas, gas condensate, coal, peat, oil shale, but the amounts of their extraction and methods of use in total do not ensure the necessary level of energy state security. The additional difficulties in the energy sector were created by long-term hostilities in the east and south parts of the country. The unavailability of most extraction capacities of primary energy resources and the loss of a significant part of electricity generation negatively affected the possibilities of socio-economic development. Against this background, increasing the efficiency of the use of unconventional fuels and energy resources, in particular in the western region, taking into consideration the global trend of renewed interest in the ecological use of fossil fuels, waste and biomass, is relevant and timely.

In the general case, unconventional combustible minerals can be included on-balance and off-balance reserves of primary types of energy materials and amounts of technogenic wastes from coal mining, coal beneficiation, oil refining etc., which by its energy or geological-spatial conditions, currently not meet the economic criteria for extraction and use by traditional methods.

The article provides a comparative overview of known methods of conversion (processing) of unconventional fuel, in particular pyrolysis, hydrogenation and gasification. It is shown that according to the types of processed raw materials, indicators of technological processes and characteristics of the obtained products, gasification methods are the most suitable for ecological conversion of unconventional fuels and wastes. The developed direct and combined methods of ecological conversion of unconventional solid combustible fossils and carbon-containing wastes to obtain gaseous, liquid and solid fuels are presented, as well as the prospects of their implementation in the western region of Ukraine are considered.

The purpose of the work is to generalize data on the gas presence in the gas-coal fields of the Lviv-Volyn Coal Basin; to ascertain alterations of methane presence of the coal-bearing series across the area of the Lviv-Volyn Coal Basin.

We have analyzed gas-coal deposits of the Lviv-Volyn Coal Basin. General view of the change in methane presence across the area of the basin is the following:

– of the Volyn field seams of the Bashkirian stage have the least methane presence. Thus, for the seam b3 it doesn’t exceed 0.1–1. cu m/t. dry ash-free mass (cu m/t. a.-f. m.), and for the seam b1, it is equal to 0.2–3.0 cu m/t. a.-f. m.). The methane presence the Serpukhovian stage is higher and is changed within on a large scale from 0.01 to 3.0 cu m/t. a.-f. m. In the northern part of the basin, at the Volyn field the commercial coal seams have insignificant methane presence from 0.01 to 1.4 cu m/t. a.-f. m. Only is the far north-west it is increased up to 4–8 cu m/t. a.-f. m.;

– in the northern and north-eastern parts of the Zabuzhzhia field, the methane presence of coalbeds of the Serpukhovian stage is from 0.01 to 1. cu m/t. a.-f. m. With the increase in the depth of occurrence up to 500–650 m in the south-western part of the field, the methane presence increases to 2–10 cu m/t. a.-f. m. and at some plots it reaches 12–17 cu m/t. a.-f. m.;

– іn the Mezhyrichchia field the methane presence of the seams n11, n12, as well as of the main working seams of north-eastern part and along their outcrops into Carboniferous hardly reaches 3–5 cu m/t. a.-f. m. Characteristic of the field is that with increase of the depth of occurrence of beds from 380 to 450 m in the east and to 500–570 m in the west, the methane presence increases from 3–8 to 5–17 cu m/t. a.-f. m.;

– in the Tyagliv field, the methane presence of coalbeds reaches of its maximum and in the depth of 800–870 m it is from 8 to 31 cu m/t. a.-f. m. Тhe Tyagliv field is the most gas-bearing in the Lviv-Volyn Coal Basin;

– in the Lyubelya field, in its southern part, coal-bearing bearing series up to coal seam n7 is degassed, and the methane content in the gas mixture is from 0 to 0.8 cu m/t. a.-f. m. In the northern direction of the field the methane presence increases to 5–15 cu m/t. a.-f. m., and in the seam v6 up to 20 cu m/t. a.-f. m. at the mine fields No. 4 and No. 5.

To ascertain prospects of the areas for commercial extraction of coalbed methane it is necessary to take all geological factors, influencing the spreading and distribution of coal gases, into consideration. Complex approach to coal production with studying gas bearingness in the gas-bearing series is very important for the perspectiveness of the areas. The usage of such methods is one of the perspective directions of a stable development of coal-producing regions with gradual transfer from the monocentrified production to the multiprofile purposefulness.

Abstract

Geological exploration for oil and gas in the Dnipro-Donets Basin has shown that most fields have a complex structure, which significantly complicates the search for hydrocarbon deposits. The studies were conducted within the structural zone in the Narizhnyanska area to predict hydrocarbon deposits in the Lower Carboniferous Visean and Serpukhivian and Middle Carboniferous Bashkirian deposits, as well as to clarify the structure of the unconformable shielding dump. Fieldwork was carried out along 23 profiles crossing the Narizhnyanska, Rogivska, Shylivska and Burivska structures to identify and delineate electromagnetic anomalies. According to the interpretation of the obtained data, the zones of unconfined rocks are the channels of hydrocarbon migration, and the compression zones are the barriers in front of which they accumulate. The most promising areas for hydrocarbon accumulation are those where the anomalies of the maximum values of the nFisum.mean parameter are located in the southern part, and the anomalies of the minimum values of the parameter are located in the northern part of the area. According to the results of the study, the Point electromagnetic sounding method determined: Narizhnyanska, Rogivska and the northern part of Burivska structure are the most promising areas of the Narizhnyanska area in terms of hydrocarbon deposits.

The results of the work on the Narizhnyanska area showed that the Point electromagnetic sounding method can be used in a complex of exploration and prospecting works to study seismic or other anomalies, determine the depths of horizons of anomalous electromagnetic properties that are promising for hydrocarbon accumulation.

Abstract

Increase in the production and stepping up the rate of hydrocarbon reserves is an important task for keeping Ukraine supplied with its own resources. Development of the missed upper horizons or those that are considered to be non-commercial is the cheapest way to increase production. Shallow lying horizons C-8 and C-9 of the Serpukhovian deposits of the Pryluky uplift belong to such objects. Unconventional reservoirs composed of layered, lithologically uneven layers of composite structure of porous space and considerable changeability of the composition are considered to be perspective. Relatively low natural radio-activity according to data of gamma-ray logging, the absence of spontaneous potential-anomalies, somewhat low values of specific resistance, insignificant increase in indices of potential sounding in comparison with gradient sounding, increased values of residual saturation factor are characteristic indications of these reservoir rocks.

According to data of geophysical well logging, the reliable ways and methods of predicting qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the main petrophysical parameters of the reservoirs of given type are absent up to the present because petrophysical properties of such reservoirs are studied not fully. Their development requires the execution of experimental complex investigations of the core samples selected from these horizons that allows us to study the interconnections and mutual stipulating of collecting and geophysical properties of reservoirs with controlled change in parameters in the course of the experiments and to determine the complex of informative parameters of the well logging.

As a result of conducted studies of the rock samples, the lithological type of reservoir was determined and its lithological-petrophysical characteristic was given. Matrix of the rock contains porous space of different type and genesis. Porosity of the interlayers of sandy aleurolites, that are the main oil-saturated reservoirs, reaches the value of 23 to 28 per cent, and with the aid of fractures along bedding of all another lithological varieties, including clayish, they are connected into a single hydrodynamic system bifurcated in the rocks with decreased solidity, and therefore very sensitive to stress redistribution and formation pressure.

There correlational ties between geophysical and capacity-filtration parameters of the reservoir rocks were determined, petrophysical models were constructed for normal and formational conditions and the main factors, sufficiently influencing their value, were determined.

Abstract

The paper presents the results of complex lithogenetic studies of the Middle Jurassic deposits of the Predobrogean depression. The nature of the lithological-lithmological space-age variability of the Callovian and Bath-Bajocian deposits was established, lithophysical models were built on this basis, and the peculiarities of the development of reservoir rocks of various types and aquitards were clarified. In the lithological structure of the Middle Jurassic, three types of section are distinguished according to the ratio of rock components. It was established that the lithological structure of the Callovian and Bath-Bajocian deposits is significantly different: clayey, as well as siltstone-sand litmites are characteristic of the Bath-Bajocian, and mixed and terrigenous litmites with a carbonate component are characteristic of the Callovian. The lateral lithological and lithological heterogeneity of the sediments indicates that the studied profiles cross several facies zones. Two clastogenic packs of regional distribution were identified in the section of the Bath-Bajocian in the lower and middle parts of the section, 55–60 m and 50–240 m thick, respectively, separated by a pack of clay formations. The Callovian deposits are characterized by the development of mixed litmites, to a certain extent enriched in carbonate rocks. Three oil and gas promising areas have been localized. First, this is the district of Well Suvorivska-4, where the development of a combined (anticlinal and lithologically limited) trap is predicted in the Callovian deposits. Secondly, the area between Well Chervonoarmiyska-2 and Suvorivska-4, where 10 horizons of both pore and fracture reservoirs are wedged in the Bath-Bajocian deposits. The third is the district of Well Starotroyanivska-1, where there is a anticlinal trap with the development in the Bath-Bajocian deposits of two horizons of pore collectors, which are shielded by rather powerful aquitards.
