The purpose of this paper is to review several different methods calculating gas hydrate saturations. There are three methods using downhole log data, core data (including pressure core), and seismic velocity data. Archie's equation using electrical resistivity of downhole log data is widely used for saturation calculation. In this case, Archie's parameters should be defined accurately. And the occurrence types of gas hydrate significantly affect to saturation calculation. Thus saturation calculation should be carefully conducted. The methods using chlorinity and pressure core data are directly calculated from core sample. So far, the saturation calculated from pressure core gives accurate and quantitative values. But this method is needed much more time and cost. Thus acquisition of the continuous data with sediment depth is realistically hard. The recent several results show that the saturation calculated from resistivity data is the highest values, while the value calculated from pressure core is the lowest. But this trend is not always absolutely. Thus, to estimate accurate gas hydrate saturation, the values calculated from several methods should be compared.

정부는 2005년부터 가스하이드레이트 개발사업단을 발족시켜 국내의 가스하이드레이트 부존 형태와 매장량 평가를 위해 노력하고 있다. 2005년 2차원 정밀 물리탐사, 심해 퇴적물 채취 및 다각적 분석연구사업이 수행되었고, 2006년도에는 3차원 물리탐사, 개발기술을 위한 연구 및 지질재해${\cdot}$안정성 연구 등이 수행되었다. 또한 2007년 상반기에 동해 지역에서 해저면 표면에서 피스톤 코어를 이용하여 실물 샘플을 채취하는 데 성공하였다. 기존에 취득된 다양한 자료를 면밀히 분석하고 해석한 결과를 바탕으로 2007년도 하반기에 시추를 진행 중에 있다. 시추를 통하여 동해지역의 가스하이드레이트의 부존 형태 파악 및 추정 매장량을 산출할 수 있는 좋은 결과가 취득될 것으로 기대하고 있다. 시추는 다양한 검층 및 압력코어 시스템을 포함한 코어채취가 수행되고 있다. 취득된 시추 결과를 이용하여 사업단은 가스하이드레이트 개발을 위한 보다 나은 결과를 도출한 것이며 이를 통해 미래 에너지원의 확보 및 자원 강국으로 가는 초석을 마련하게 될 것으로 기대한다.

This paper presents a design for preventing coolant leaks in the core part of a heater mounted in a combat vehicle. The heater is a device that makes heated coolant flow through the heater core in the crew room. A problem with coolant leaks in the heater core area during the operation of a combat vehicle was identified. This problem is caused mainly by high pressure at the junction of the tank and tube due to the vulnerability of this area. To solve this problem, an improved core was made by improving the welding method and changing the end region of the heater core to a structure that can withstand high pressure. When pressure was applied sequentially to the existing core and improved core, a leak occurred at 7.0 kgf/㎠ in the existing core while the improved core maintained its structure up to 17.0 kgf/㎠, highlighting the improvement. Finally, performance tests and environment tests were conducted to demonstrate the suitability of the improved structure. The improved heater will be applied to combat vehicles. This paper is expected to serve as a reference for improving defense capabilities by securing reliability as well as the design and analysis of failures of similar equipment.nse capabilities through securing reliability as well as the design and analysis of failures of similar equipment.

청정 에너지원으로 높은 잠재력을 가지고 있는 가스하이드레이트는 상업적 기술개발이 미확보된 상태이다. 현재 전 세계적으로 가스하이드레이트 개발 및 생산에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며 이에 대한 기초자료로서 가스하이드레이트가 함유된 퇴적층의 물성자료가 필요하다. 특히, 현장 시료에 대한 물성 측정은 향후 가스하이드레이트 개발 및 생산 계획을 수립하는데 있어서 매우 중요하다. 탄성파 측정 결과는 다른 물성 들에 비하여 하이드레이트 함유 시료의 성형과정에 큰 영향을 받는다. 또한 그 외의 실험 경계조건과 취득 자료의 처리 과정에도 매우 민감하게 반응한다. 따라서 측정을 하는 과정은 물론 측정 후 자료의 활용 과정에서 다양히 고려해야 할 점들이 있다. 본 연구에서는 인공 모래를 이용하여 다양한 조건에서 탄성파 속도를 측정한 후 그 결과를 토대로 하여 기존의 연구 결과와 비교하여 음파 측정연구 시 고려해야 할 기술적 사항 들을 정리해 보았다. 실험에 사용된 장비는 고압의 퇴적층을 모사할 수 있는 압력셀과 메탄과 염수 주입에 사용되는 유체 주입장비, 하이드레이트 형성을 위한 온도조절장비, 자료 획득 장비로 구성되어 있다. p파 속도는 음파 송수신장비를 사용하였다.

With their wide geographical distribution, unconventional resources are continuously compared against conventional resources, but their development is expanding because TRRs (Technical Recoverable Resources) are similar to conventional resources. In particular, there is active development of unconventional gas resources such as shale gas, tight gas, CBM (coalbed methane) and gas hydrate. However, it is difficult to calculate the material properties of unconventional resources, especially the gas content, with current geophysical logging technology. Additionally, some overseas companies have monopolies on related equipment and materials. Therefore, this study developed a reservoir PCS (Pressure Core Sampler). It can collect core samples without gaseous loss by maintaining high pressure from the moment the core is sampled and record pressure and temperature in real time. Successful performance testing was also carried out for official verification of the manufactured PCS. The reservoir PCS will contribute to the acquisition of geophysical well logging data as well as accurate and reliable cores.

This study is aimed for estimating hydraulic parameters using the Cooper-Bredehoeft-Papadopulos, the Hvorslev, and the Bouwer & Rice methods at nineteen test holes in Me. Geumjeong area composed of Bulguksa granites, and for characterizing hydraulic properties at the test holes with relatioll to drill core data. The relation among hydraulic Dammeters obtained by the three methods is also considered. The study area is divided into four sub-areas to consider the hydraulic characteristics. The difference of hydraulic conductivity estimates between the injection and the withdrawal slug test may be due to penncable fracture distlibutions around the test hole and/or the disturbance of fine mateIials in the fractures induced by the pressure variation due to different mechanisms of test initiation. The hydraulic conductivity estimates detennined by the Cooper-Bredehoeft-Papadopulos, the Hvorslev and the Bouwer & Rice methods ranges from 10$^{-8}$ to lO$^{-5}$m/sec, and the ranges of average values are from 10$^{-7}$ to 10$^{-6}$m/sec. Also, the transmissivity ranges from 10$^{-7}$ to 10$^{-5}$$m^2$/sec. Comparing average hydraulic conductivity by the Cooper-Bredehoeft-Papadopulos, the Hvorslev and the Bouwer & Rice methods, by the Hvorslev method has the highest values, then the Bouwer & Rice method, and the Cooper-Bredehoeft-Papadopulos method has the lowest.
