Groundwater control in underwater tunnels by drilling and blasting method is generally carried out by grouting ring, shotcrete lining (primary lining), and concrete lining. The permeable grouting ring and shotcrete lining have an important impact on seepage field. However, the currently published research models of related results are for homogeneous and isotropic single-layer unlined tunnels, ignoring the important effects of tunnel grouting circles and primary lining. If the conclusions of the relevant literature are directly used to guide the tunnel design, large errors may occur. Therefore, on the basis of previous studies, this article extends the tunnel seepage research model and incorporates the tunnel grouting ring and primary lining into the research model. The research model is more in line with actual working conditions. Based on the principle of mirror method, the seepage field of a drainage tunnel in an infinite aquifer is superposed with that of a water supply tunnel in an infinite aquifer, and the analytical solution to the seepage field of an grouted and shotcrete lined underwater tunnel in a semi-infinite aquifer is obtained, which is further verified by numerical analysis and experiment. In addition, the influence of grouting ring and primary lining parameters on seepage field is discussed by using partial differential analysis. The results show that the seepage flow of tunnel can be significantly alleviated by either reducing the permeability coefficient of grouting ring and primary lining or increasing the thickness of grouting ring and primary lining, but the water pressure of grouting ring and primary lining will increase.
