ABSTRACT

Exhausted oil gas reservoirs were used as under-

ground gas storage at present in many countries as

USA and Canada for its natural preserving and seal-

ing conditions. In these oil gas reservoirs, aban-

doned wells were often existed which will affect the

sealing properties during the rebuild of the reser-

voirs. Sometimes, the wells were buried deep in the

bed strata and some casing fishes filled inside for

dozens of years which made the situation more

complex. These wells drilled into deep aquifers and

destroyed the integrity of cap rock, which would

cause the gas leakage. So, for the safety of gas sto-

rage and production, it is very important to dispose

these wells and evaluate their effects on the gas sto-

rage.
