In the wave of global energy transition,the innovation of energy storage technology is extremely important for ensuring stable energy supply and sustainable development. Deep underground salt caverns have become the preferred storage space for energy resources such as oil,natural gas,and hydrogen,due to their characteristic stability and containment,with extensive applications across the world and significant application results. Compared to the oil blanket method for cavern construction,cavern construction with nitrogen dissolution inhibition is safer and more efficient,environment friendly and cost effective for salt cavern energy storage facilities. This paper focuses on the cavern construction technology with nitrogen dissolution inhibition for salt cavern energy storage and presents a comparative analysis of cavern construction techniques with oil and gas blanket for dissolution inhibition. The cavern construction with nitrogen dissolution inhibition is clarified,including the wellhead workflow modification,on-site nitrogen injection process,and gas-liquid interface monitoring and control technique. It also lists and investigates application cases in both China and other countries. Based on a thorough literature review,this paper concludes the important effects of cavern construction with nitrogen dissolution inhibition on improving the construction efficiency of gas storage,reducing costs,and protecting environment. Moreover,the future development trend of this technology is explored.
