Tóm tắt

Các xu hướng không gian - thời gian trong dấu chân hạ tầng, sản xuất năng lượng và biến đổi cảnh quan đã được đánh giá cho lớp đá Eagle Ford ở Texas. Thời gian phân tích là trong bốn giai đoạn hai năm (2006–2014). Các phân tích sử dụng hình ảnh độ phân giải cao, cũng như dữ liệu đường ống để lập bản đồ hạ tầng của EF. Tình trạng cảnh quan từ năm 2006 được sử dụng làm cơ sở. Kết quả chỉ ra rằng các dấu chân hạ tầng dao động từ 94,5 km2 vào năm 2008 đến 225,0 km2 vào năm 2014. Đến năm 2014, độ tích cực sử dụng đất (tỷ lệ biến đổi đất so với sản xuất năng lượng) đã giảm trên toàn khu vực. Sự biến đổi khu vực lõi theo từng giai đoạn cao nhất (3331,6 km2) vào năm 2008, tại thời điểm bắt đầu phát triển khu vực, và tăng từ 582,3 đến 3913,9 km2 vào năm 2014, mặc dù có sự tái thực vật đáng kể ở những khu vực lõi cục bộ được quan sát trong suốt nghiên cứu (tức là, sự biến đổi được cải thiện ở một số khu vực và xấu đi ở những khu vực khác). Độ tích cực sử dụng đất ở phần phía đông của khu vực luôn thấp hơn so với phần phía tây, trong khi sự biến đổi khu vực lõi vẫn tương đối không thay đổi từ đông sang tây. Sự biến đổi do xây dựng đường ống khoảng ~65 km2 cho tất cả các giai đoạn thời gian, ngoại trừ năm 2010 khi sự biến đổi được ghi nhận ở mức 47 km2. Phần trăm tổng biến đổi từ việc xây dựng mỏ tăng từ 27,3% vào năm 2008 lên 71,5% vào năm 2014. Số lượng trung bình giếng trên mỗi mỏ trong 27 quận đã tăng từ 1,15 lên 1,7. Nghiên cứu này trình bày một khuôn khổ để lập bản đồ sự biến đổi cảnh quan từ việc phát triển hạ tầng dầu khí. Tuy nhiên, khuôn khổ này có thể được áp dụng cho các chương trình phát triển năng lượng khác, chẳng hạn như các trang trại gió hoặc năng lượng mặt trời, hoặc bất kỳ chương trình phát triển hạ tầng khu vực nào khác. Sự biến đổi cảnh quan do việc lắp đặt đường ống hydrocarbon ở Quận Val Verde, Texas.
