Item type:Article, Access status: Open Access , Ocena wpływu warunków klimatycznych na bilans energetyczny górotworu na obszarze poligonu badawczego VSB - TU Ostrava(2012) Bujok, Petr; Klempa, Martin; Koziorek, Jiři; Rado, Robert; Porzer, MichałVSB - Uniwersytet Techniczny w Ostrawie posiada unikalną możliwość badania zmian temperatury w górotworze dla długotrwałego działania pomp ciepła. Nowy budynek Audytorium jest nie tylko największym obiektem w Republice Czeskiej, ale także w Europie Środkowej, ogrzewanym przez system pomp ciepła. Wraz z systemem otworów technologicznych pozyskujących ciepło z górotworu odwiercono również badawcze otwory monitorujące, które kontrolują zmiany temperatury w otaczającym górotworze podczas eksploatacji systemu grzewczego. System monitorowania zlokalizowany na obszarze działania otworów technologicznych nazywa się Dużym Poligonem Badawczym. VSB-TU posiada drugi systemu badawczego nazywany Małym Poligonem Badawczym i lokalizacją w pobliżu budynku Centrum Badań Energetycznych (CBE). Składa się ona z dwóch odwiertów technologicznych do eksploatacji energii cieplnej przy użyciu pomp ciepła i dziewięciu otworów monitorujących, położonych w pobliżu tych dwóch odwiertów. Wszystkie odwierty wykonane na terenie obu poligonów badawczych wyposażone są w czujniki, które monitorują zmiany temperatury podczas ogrzewania (pobieranie energii cieplnej z ośrodka skalnego w zimie) i chłodzenia (przekazywania energii do górotworu w okresie letnim). Głównym celem badań jest sprawdzenie funkcjonalności i wydajności całego systemu. W artykule zaprezentowano niektóre aspekty zagadnień pozyskiwania energii cieplnej z górotworu oraz wyniki uzyskanych analiz wynikających z monitoringu i pomiarów zmian temperatury w warstwach powierzchniowych górotworu do głębokości około 20 m.Item type:Article, Access status: Open Access , CO₂ storing capacity in geologic formations in the Czech Republic(2015) Bujok, Petr; Klempa, Martin; Labus, Krzysztof; Porzer, Michał; Pánek, Petr; Rado, Robert; González-Rodríguez, Marina A.The $CO_{2}$ emission is a significant environmental problem threatening the sustained development of mankind. One of the possible ways of limiting the emission is the disposal of carbon dioxide in geologic formations.A pilot project of $CO_{2}$ storage in geologic formations in the Czech Republic (REPP-$CO_{2}$) is presented in this paper. The project is part of the Norwegian Fund and the research consortium (headed by the Czech Republic Geologic Office), with VSB-TU Ostrava as a participant. The VSB-TU Ostravais represented by the Faculty of Geology and Mining (HGF) and the Faculty of Metallurgy and Materials Science (FMMI) in the consortium.The research activity of the consortium mainly focuses on the development and improvement of selected laboratory methods, modelling and simulation, which are basic for the evaluation of safety of $CO_{2}$ storing in geologic forma-tions. Thise paper presents the research conducted by the Faculty of Geology and Mining (HGF) VSB-TU Ostrava within the project.Item type:Article, Access status: Open Access , Ways of increasing natural gas storage capacity in underground gas storages in the Czech Republic(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2019) Bujok, Petr; Klempa, Martin; Kunz, Antonin; Porzer, Michał; Rado, Robert; Roček, Erik; Ryba, JakubNatural gas fields are usually located far away from the end users and industrially developed countries, where the gas demand is highest. In such cases, natural gas is transported from the production site to the receiver mainly with gas pipelines. Such pipelines may transmit a definite volume of natural gas. Most of the time gas transport is stable in time, unless the demand changes, e.g. in winter or in the case of pipeline failure. In such a case the pipeline system cannot cover the increased demand and supply sufficient amounts of gas. One of the ways to solve the problem of varying demand and limited potential as far as gas transmission over long distances is concerned, are underground gas storages, thanks to which the operational gas deliveries can be regulated, i.e. it can be stored in periods of lower demand and used in the high demand situations. This safety buffer provides the stability and reliability of the entire natural gas distribution system. The methods of increasing the natural gas storage capacity of UGS were discussed in this paper with special emphasis on the primary and secondary tightness of geological structures hosting UGS. Authors also analyzed how laboratory tests conducted at VŠB-TU Ostrava can be broadened to verify the possibilities of increasing natural gas storing capacity, depending of the geological horizons and structures in which the UGS is located.Item type:Article, Access status: Open Access , Analysis of the hazards of the BAZALY football stadium in Ostrava in terms of environmental impact(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2017) Bujok, Petr; Klempa, Martin; Pospíšil, Pavel; Rado, Robert; Porzer, Michał; Ryba, Jakub; Bláha, Martin; Poláček, AlešThe term »geohazard« is used to describe the natural and anthropogenic phenomena and processes taking place in the natural environment in the context of their negative influence on natural environment, including the geological one. The degree of geohazard is frequently evaluated on the basis of catalogued descriptions (activity of natural environment and human impact), which help identify particular hazards and ascribe them their value. According to Czech standards, 45 geohazards have been classified and described in detail in view of: geological knowledge, origin and way in which the hazard was evoked, geographical range, time, associated processes, social aspect and monitoring methods. Research works were conducted in a football stadium located in an area of underground hard coal extraction and surface production of raw minerals. The BAZALY stadium, where FC Banik Ostrava played its matches, is located in Ostrava in an area of former mining fields of Silesian Ostrava. These coal mines were closed in the 1990s, but even so they still create environmental hazards. The paper is devoted to research works and risk analysis of the environmental impact of mining activities, old workings and liquidated mines in terms of geohazard. The basic geohazard in the stadium area is methane migration from tectonically disturbed rock mass, also caused by incorrectly closed workings. Another hazard is associated with the increasing mining damage, i.e. tectonic movements, subsidence, local sinkholes, lowering groundwater level etc.Item type:Article, Access status: Open Access , Special shut off device for liquidating blowout from the drill string(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2018) Bujok, Petr; Klempa, Martin; Ryba, Jakub; Porzer, Michał; Jakubčík, Marek; Štastný, Lukáš; Rado, RobertCrude oil and natural gas belong to the most important raw minerals used by industry. Their world's consumption remains on a high level with an increasing tendency, similarly the demand for exploration-prospecting works. The drilling works associated with reservoir prospecting and development are connected with the risk of reaching intervals containing highly pressurized formation fluids and with blowouts. When drilling the first well in a given area, the operator frequently does not have a full set of data about reservoir parameters of the drilled horizons. Investors want the drilling companies finish their works in the shortest possible time, therefore technologies which maximize the drilling advancement are employed. One of such techniques is drilling with minimally higher hydrostatic pressure of mud as compared to the reservoir pressure. If the drilling hits a porous interval of elevated reservoir pressure, reservoir fluid may inflow to the wellbore. If the hydrostatic pressure of fluid column in the wellbore is lower than reservoir pressure, the wellbore will be fed with reservoir water, which will consequently migrate towards the top of the well. This may result in a kick and then a blowout. The inflow to the wellbore can be handled only by well trained crew and appropriate equipment. The crew has to recognize the flow, and depending on the condition of the well take suitable measures. Sometimes the lack of proper training, errors, hardware failures and improperly protected top of the well lead to a fully developed blowout from the well. Particularly dangerous are cases when the surface blowout prevention equipment or other elements of the well BOP facilities break down. In such situations rescue teams with specialist equipment have to be involved. Exemplary applications and technological potential of specialist blowout control equipment in uncontrolled kick of reservoir fluid though the string are presented in the paper. The designed tool and its functions allow for killing or reducing the outflow.Item type:Article, Access status: Open Access , The problem of liquidation of the open eruption by drilling tools(2014) Fibingr, Jaroslav; Bujok, Petr; Klempa, Martin; Porzer, Michał; Kalus, Dalibor; Rado, RobertDrilling process of deep borehole consists of different drilling operations. Each of them can cause numerous different drilling problems especially when a borehole is performed. While drilling the most dangerous problems can occur once the drilling fluids (oil, gas or water) spontaneously flow out from the drilled formations into the borehole and then to the surface. It can also happen that the pressures in the borehole are not balanced and an influx of fluid into the borehole (a kick) will occur. If no action is taken to stop a kick once it begins, then the fluids will be pushed out of the borehole and will be flowing uncontrollably to surface (blow-out). Blow-out is prevented by closing off the well at the surface with special kind of valves (Blow-out Preventers - BOPs). When pressure control over the well is lost, swift action must be taken to avert the severe consequences. These consequences may include: — endangering of human life, — loss of rig and equipment, — negative influence on the environment, — additional costs of bringing the well under control again, — loss of reservoir production. In the case of kick or blow-out will occur in the practical use are different procedures and methods to control a borehole. These procedures and methods depend on the actual drilling operation scenario. One of them can be a tripping operation when the drill string is pulled out or run back again. In this case the drill string is open either after a break-out or before making up the drill pipes and drill collars. There is a variety of tools that can be used to prevent the formation of fluids rising up inside the drill pipes. One of this tool is a safety valve (rod preventers - BOP) to prevent the blow-out of the drill string. This manuał safety valve should be kept on the rig floor at all times. It needs to be a fuli opening ball-type valve so there is no restriction to flow. This valve is installed onto the top of the drill string if a kick occurs during a trip. However, this solution is quite inconvenient and difficult because involves special heavy tools, e.g. a crane. Drilling process of deep borehole consists of different drilling operations.

This paper presents a new solution making use of special control equipment for the blowing open drill string. This equipment is based on a hydraulic press (named »Drill Pipe Rescue Press I«) which has been developed by HBZS, MND S.A. Hodonin and VSB-Technical University of Ostrava, supported by Faculty of Drilling, Oil and Gas AGH-UST Kraków.Item type:Book Chapter, Access status: Open Access , Niestandardowe możliwości zastosowania technologii horyzontalnego przewiertu sterowanego – HDD(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2025) Ziaja, Jan; Rado, RobertW artykule przedstawiono krótką historię powstania i rozwoju technologii HDD na świecie i w Polsce.

This is because maximum capacity of transportation system cannot cover increased seasonal or any peak demand. The UGS’s systems are used as buffers to guarantee security and reliability of gas supply. The safety of UGS operation is ensured by the tightness of the storage geological structures, technical and technological equipment, which are known as primary and secondary tightness. This article evaluates the primary tightness conditions of selected Uhřice-jih UGS in the Czech Republic owned by MND Gas Storage a.s. Monitoring and control of the gas quantity balance in the reservoir was carried out using p/z curves method and based on mathematical modelling. In the article some of the aspects of secondary tightness UGS monitoring are also illustrated.Item type:Article, Access status: Open Access , Petro-physical properties of geological formation in the aspect of possible CO₂ sequestration(2013) Pavluš, Ján; Porzer, Michał; Bujok, Petr; Rado, Robert; Klempa, Martin$CO_{2}$ emissions and a future increasing trend can be, by some scientists, considered a serious menace for the sustainable development of mankind and the reduction is necessary for the environment protection. Carbon dioxide is one of the most important gases that causes greenhouse effect, which warms up the earth surface as a consequence of a different heat flow between the earth and the atmosphere.Item type:Article, Access status: Open Access , Utilization of high potential geothermal energy in the Czech Republic(2016) Klempa, Martin; Rado, Robert; Bujok, Petr; Porzer, Michał; Janečková, NikolaIn the Czech Republic the electrical energy and heat from geothermal energy can be generated with the use of Engineering/Enhancing Geothermal System (EGS). In this case a downhole heat exchanger is performed to a depth at which the temperature of the rock mass is at least 150–160 ° C or more, preferably about 200 ° C. Taking into account the geological conditions in the Czech Republic, such temperatures can be ob- served at about 5000–6000 m of depth. The site of a pilot project of geothermal electrical energy production was selected on the basis of the analysis of deep-seated geological structures in the Czech Republic, i.e. area of crust faults in the Ore Mountains Erzgebirge. The selected geological units consist of the Ore Mountains Fault and Central Bohemian Uplands, which are part of the Ohersky Rift Valley. Two deep research wells are planned in that area, with detailed geological, geophysical and geothermal analyses, including laboratory analyses of sampled rocks (cores).
