The Glutenite Sedimentary Facies and Hydrocarbon Distribution in the Upper Fourth Member of Shahejie Formation in Shengtuo Area
ZHANG Jin-liang ZHANG Xin
2008, 26(3): 361-368.
Abstract:
Abstract Glutenite fans are the major sedimentary systems in the upper fourth member of Shahejie formation in Shengtuo area, and different turbiditic glutenites develop in the deep lacustrine environment. On the base of cores observation and description, combined with the numerous data of well logging, sedimentary characteristics are studied in the upper fourth member of Shahejie formation in Shengtuo area, and the hydrocarbon distribution is analysed. The results show that the prograded-type fan delta is the major sedimentary system in the downdropped block of contemporaneous fault in Shengtuo area. The gravity channel and slump develop simultaneously. The glutenite reservoirs successively distribute lithologic hydrocarbon reservoir,structural hydrocarbon reservoir,stratigraphic hydrocarbon reservoir from the central subsag to the marginal facies belt. The hydrocarbon distribution is controlled by sedimentary facies apparently. The variance of reservoir quality is obviously in different facies belt. The reservoir quality is the best in middle fans, and they are the favorable places for hydrocarbon accumulation. The slumps and gravity channels take second place. The oiliness quality of inner fans and outer fans are bad because of bad reservoir quality. In addition, the inherited deep subsag and the partition of lithology have effects on hydrocarbon distribution.

Abstract:
Abstract On the base of the hypothesis of PAC which was presented by Goodwin and Anderson in 1985, considering the division of base-level cycles was extremely indefinite, this paper attached the autocyclicity and allocyclicity to the concepts of base-level cycle. The concept of the grain-size genetic unit and its research methods were put forward, and applied to establish high-resolution isochronous sequence framework of Loucaogou Formation of Middle Permian in Chaiwopu basin. There totally 2 long base-level cycle sequence, 6 middle-term grain-size genetic units, 5 members equal to 5 system tracts ,were distinguished from Loucaogou Formation of Middle Permian in Chaiwopu basin.

ZHANG Dao-wei
2008, 26(3): 392-398.
Abstract:
Paleogene and Neogene in Southwest Qaidam Basin are the most important oil and gas exploration and development strata of the basin. Based on the detailed sequence stratigraphy study of 54 drilling and logging data, a first flooding surface and 6 maximum flooding surfaces were identified in Paleogene-Neogene Ganchaigou and Shizigou Formations, and these surfaces can be divided into 6 third-order sequences and 17 quasi-sequence groups. Sequence correlation was done in 10 well-to-well profiles. In corresponding to these well-to-well profiles, seismic profiles were sliced in 3D seismic data, and sequence boundaries were also identified in the seismic profiles. Then the identified sequences from well-to-well profiles were projected on seismic profiles, through correlation and adjustment, high-resolution Paleogene-Neogene drilling and seismic matching sequence stratigraphic framework was constructed in south-west Qaidam Basin. This work may give insights to explore lithologic oil and gas reservoirs in this area.

ZHU Zhi-min
2008, 26(3): 426-434.
Abstract:
The investigation on the coalbed methane system is a guide to the exploration and development of coalbed methane. Using the theory and method of unconventional petroleum system, the Sahai Formation coalbed methane system was studied. The source and reservoir rock is the third coal seams of Sahai Formation. The Sahai Formation coalbed methane is sealed by the roof comprising mudstone and lutite of the fourth Sahai Formation. The overburden is the fourth Sahai Formation and Fuxin Formation deposits. The dolerite intrusion during the Himalayan orogeny enhanced the coal maturity and caused a peak of hydrocarbon generation. In addition, the underwater brought many bacteria generating second biogenic methane. Then the coalbed methane is reserved and a critical moment of the coalbed methane system is at the end of the Late Tertiary. In summary, the Sahai Formation coal seams are favorable for coalbed methane exploration and the Dongliang district will to be a promising area for coalbed methane exploration.

GUO Mo-zhen
2008, 26(3): 445-451.
Abstract:
The study of the characters and the influencing factors of the low permeable sandstone reservoirs relative permeability curve is not only the important approach to analyze and recognize the rule of oil and water fluid percolation, but also the base of proper development petroleum. By summarizing the futures of the relative permeability curve in low permeable reservoirs and study of the futures of relative permeability curve in lithic arenite which rock fragments are most come from tuff and lava, it is the reservoirs rock character, the type of detrital minerals, the degree of grains coarse and the lay out of clay mineral that are main influencing factors which influence the relative permeability curve. This conclusion has great significance in proper development in this kind of low permeable oil reservoirs.
Origin and Diagenesis of Authigenic Chlorite within the Sandstone Reservoirs of Xujiahe Formation, Sichuan Basin, China
SUN Zhi-lei
2008, 26(3): 459-468.
Abstract:
The authigenic chlorite graincoatings or porelinings play an important role in preserving primary porosities effectively by resisting the compaction of the overlying rock and decreasing the number of nucleation of authigenic quartz on the surfaces of grains in reservoir sandstones of Xujiahe Formation, Sichuan basin, China. The early materials forming the graincoatings of chlorite are involving the solution of the syndepositional Fe rich sediments, flocculation of the soluble fluvial Fe and the intrusion of the compacting fluids in the adjacent shale bed. And moreover, the graincoatings mainly formed as news neomorphic precipitations between syngenesis and early eodiagenesis. Due to the Continuous intrusion of the Mgrich fluids through the fracture system ,the authigenic chlorites in Xujiahe Formation II are in possession of the enough materials to regrow in mesodiagenesis, furthermore, the contents of MgO are increasing with the increasing depths distinctly. However, in Xujiahe Formation IV sandstones, the regrowth of chlorite is not obvious. The impact of the chlorite graincoatings to the reservoir properties are well evaluated by the relation of the chlorite contents versus the porosity values and the porosity distribution figure in study area. As for the influence to reservoir quality, there is an "optimum thickness" for chlorite graincoatings to effectively preserve the porosities, but without radically decreasing permeability and increasing the microporosity in reservoirs. Within Xujiahe Formation sandstones, the optimum thickness of chlorite grims seems to between 5 μm and 10 μm.

Effects of Ultrasonic Dispersion on Granulometry of Fine-grain Loess
ZHANG Hong-yan
2008, 26(3): 494-500.
Abstract:
The common pretreatment method has caused divergent results of grain size measurement of the fine loess samples. In order to understand effects of pretreated method on the fine-grain loess grain-size distribution, samples from three sits, which are located in Luochuan of central Chinese Loess Plateau, Lushi of southern margin of the Loess Plateau and Shangbaichuan of eastern Qingling Mountains in central China, were collected and pretreated under different ultrasonic dispersion conditions. The results indicate that time of ultrasonic disaggregating by the laser grain-size equipment just before measuring is very important for granulometry of the fine loess samples. On the basis of the different experiments, we recommend a new pretreatment method for the grain-size measurement for fine-grain loess samples: over 2 minutes are required for dispersing the samples by ultrasonic of the laser grain-size equipment just before measuring. This step is neglected in the previous measurement so that the divergent results are presented in granulometry of the fine loess samples. In addition, samples from a loess-paleosol section at Qiaojiayao of the southeast Loess Plateau are measured by the traditional and the new methods, respectively. The results show that our recommended pretreatment method is more reliable to obtain grain-size distribution of the fine-grain loess deposit than that of the older one.
The Difference of Phosphorus Forms between Different Types of Lakes
LV Chang-wei
2008, 26(3): 508-512.
Abstract:
The sediments hold information of, for example, phosphorus, which can be used to reconstruct the paleoecological and pollution history of the lakes and their drainage basins. In this paper, phosphorus forms in sediment cores from the Wuliangsuhai Lake and the Daihai Lake were extracted by a sequential extraction technique. The results indicate that the contents of AlP and ACaP in the Wuliangsuhai Lake are notably higher than those in the Daihai Lake. However, the contents of ExP, DeP and OrP in the Wuliangsuhai Lake are obviously lower than those in the Daihai Lake. The distribution of phosphorus forms can archive the information of eutrophication level and the palaeoenvironment and paleoclimate of the drainage basin of the two lakes located in different climatic regions. The contents of authigenic apatite, CaCO3bound P, and biogenic apatite (ACaP) and detrital apatite (DeP) can be used as effective parameters in the study of palaeoenvironment and paleoclimate.

GUO Jian-jun
2008, 26(3): 518-524.
Abstract:
The petroleum exploration degree of Tarim Basin is low, and the distinguished character and distribution of Lower Paleozoic source rock is still an important problem puzzling the geologist. By systematic analyses of drilled Cambrian source rock, geochemical character of Cambrian source rock was deeply studied.The result shows that owing to the difference of Cambrian depositional environment, the abundance of organic matter, the distribution of sterane and terpane and relative composition of dibenzothiophene, dibenzofuran, fluorine were varied apparently, and these parameters should be taken into account in oilsource correlation. As a whole, distinguished character of Cambrian source rock mainly include higher content of C28 in sterane, higher content of Gammacerane, and heavier carbon isotope ratios. The distribution of triaromatic hydrocarbon in Cambrian source rock is also different to Upper Ordovician source rock apparently.

YANG Yong-cai
2008, 26(3): 531-539.
Abstract:
Based on the characteristics of triaromatic steranes, alkyl triaromatic steranes and stable carbon isotopes, the sources of the condensates were analyzed in Paleogene in Hongzhuang Oilfield in Qintong Sag, Northern Jiangsu Basin. It shows that the condensates have not genetic affinity with Paleogene source rocks and were mainly sourced from the deep sources rock in Hongzhuang Oilfield. Based on the characterizations of hydrocarbon inclusions and homogenization temperatures, combining with the strata burial history, the time of hydrocarbon accumulation were confirmed in Ed1 reservoirs in Qintong Sag, North Jiangsu Basin. The result shows that cogenetic aqueous inclusions from quartz in sandstone in Well S245 show homogenization temperatures ranging from 80 to 110 ℃ and petroleum filling began Late Miocene, approximately 6 Ma ago.

The Upper Devonian Tempestites from Liantang, Guiyang, Southeastern Hunan Province and Its Palaeogeographic and Palaeoclimatic Significance
<
2008, 26(3): 369-375.
Abstract:
Abstracts The Upper Devonian Xikuangshan Formation in Shilong, Liantang, Guiyang county, southeastern Hunan Province consists of limestones, dolomites, dolomitized limestones and lime dolomites of platform facies, in which typical tempestites develop. The criteria of storm deposits conclude bottom gutter casts,radial fabric of “wormkalk” calclrudite, hummocky or swaley cross bedding, parallel bedding, massive bedding and graded bedding. The tempestites consist of 4 types of lothofacies: A-“wormkalk” calclrudite with massive bedding and bottom gutter casts. B-“wormkalk” calclrudite with graded bedding. C-calcarenite with hummocky or swaley cross-bedding and parallel bedding. D- mudstone with homogeneous or horizontal bedding. These lithofacies constitute 4 types of depositional succession: A-D succession, A-C-D succession, B-C-D succession and B-D succession. The storm deposits indicate that southeastern Hunan locate in platform to shelf of low latitude zone(5º~20º)in the Late Devonian. The discovery of the storm deposits has important significance for the interpretation of the palaeoclimate of Devonian.

GUO Yan-ru LIU Hua-qing LI Xiang-bo WANYAN Rong ZHEN Xi-min
2008, 26(3): 384-391.
Abstract:
Abstract The study about sequence stratigraphy in big sagged lacustrine basin have made a quiet great progress, but the study about sequence stratigraphy in Ordos big sagged lacustrine basin have made less progress. The reasons as follow: the trait of seismic data on Loess Plateau is bad; the logging data may be interpreted variedly; contrast in isochronous is difficult; and right method system has not been found. In this paper, authors put forward a new method system of studying sequence stratigraphic framework of big sagged lacustrine basin which include six parts: establishing standard from outcrop profiles, confirming grade of sequence from wavelet analysis, ascertaining sequence cycles from lake level changes, affirming mode from borehole logs, notarizing framework from seismic interpretation, and proposing scheme from the integration of outcrop profiles, borehole logs and seismic interpreted profiles. This method system has been applied to the projects about petroleum prospecting of Ordos Mesozoic Basin. Finally, we have established the sequence stratigraphic framework which adapts to divide and contrast stratigraphy in Ordos Mesozoic basin.

2008, 26(3): 415-425.
Abstract:
According to the division of the scales of fluvial systems,the petroleum collective system in the Tertiary of Jiyang depression are devided into large ,middle and small scale. The petroleum collective system of different scale effected the formation of oil and gas field or oil and gas reservoir of different scales, at the same time, the petroleum collective system of different scale are determined by the sequence of different scales. The ways and the results of exploration in different scaled petroleum collective system of different scale are also different. So, according to the scales of the sequence and systems, the scales and types of oil and gas field or oil and gas reservoir can be predicted and explorated.
Structure Model of Weathered Crust on the Top of PreTertiary and Its Influence on Petroleum Migration and Accumulation in East Part of Yihezhuang Uplift
ZHAO Le-qiang
2008, 26(3): 435-444.
Abstract:
Based on integrated study, the paper analyzed characteristics of the structure of weathered crust on the top of PreTertiary in the east part of Yihezhuang uplift of Jiyang depression. Key factors controlling its formation were anatomized, structure model of weathered crust was established, and its influence on petroleum migration and accumulation was discussed. Results show that weathered clay layer in the studied weathered crust is thin with limited distribution, and reservoir property is poor; while semiweathered rock of various lithologies extensively developed in the whole area, except for the tight “hard crust” on the top of semiweathered carbonate stone, reservoir property was improved obviously. Structure of weathered crust was controlled by lithofacies, paleoclimate, weathering time, paleotopography, tectonic structure, and later stage preservation. Reciprocal coupling of these factors determines spatial distribution of the structure of weathered crust. The weathered clay layer and “hard crust” on the top of semiweathered rock serves as caprock for petroleum reservoir, while semiweathered rock without “hard crust” can improve reservoir property of Tertiary system and serve as lateral migration path between different strata. 

The results can offer favorable target , important positions and well field for enlarging reservoirs and raising yield in the extralow permeability reservoirs.
Forming Mechanism of Secondary Pores in Deep Buried Reservoirs of Junggar Basin
ZHANG Fu-shun
2008, 26(3): 469-478.
Abstract:
The subject reservoir were deep buried reservoir rocks in the larger depth of the hinterland of Junggar Basin, with the depth from 5 500 to 6 000 m. A lot of thin sections were analyzed by standard petrographic microscope, Xray diffraction, scanning electron microscope coupled energydispersive analysis and cathodoluminescence were used to analyze the types and mechanism of secondary pores. The result shows that the secondary pores are main types in deepburied reservoirs. The CheMo ancient uplift was growing in Middle Jurassic. The result was that diagenesis was nonpersistent and the stratum was uplifted. Graintograin calcite cement had dissolution action by acidic atmospheric water and it had a lot of secondary porosity. The stratum was embedded after Cretaceous system and had dissolution action by organic acid. Diagenesis was delayed because the stratum was uplifted. The object reservoir was in A1 of late diagenetic stage that had caused secondary porosity remained.

Carbon and Oxygen Isotopic Study on Different Crosssections of Corbicula
YAN Hui
2008, 26(3): 513-517.
Abstract:
The stable oxygen and carbon isotope of biological shell carbonate have been extensively applied in the palaeoclimatology and palaeoenvironmental research. When measured the isotope composition of shell in situ, the different isotope composition between different shell cross sections will affect the environment significance judgement of shell isotope and have the adverse effect on the environment information extraction. This article has investigated carbon and oxygen isotope of the corbicula shell, the results shows that the carbon isotope profiles not obvious change in different cross sections, therefore it can not consider the difference between cross sections, and can extend the length of sample path in the sample process to obtain the enough powder to determine the carbon isotope. However, the oxygen isotope profiles exist difference between cross sections, so it should consider the difference oxygen isotope composition between cross sections, and in the sample process, the length of sample path should control in certain scope. Finally, according to the isotope difference between cross sections, the article had determined how to select the study cross section during the analysis of the shell.

Kinetics of Gas from the Pyrolysis of Source Rock and Oil Cracking and Its Application in the Genesis of Natural Gases in Minfeng Area of Dongying Sag
WANG Xiu-hong
2008, 26(3): 525-530.
Abstract:
It is controversial about the origin of the natural gas in Minfeng area. By using thermal simulation experiment of the sealed system, the genetic mechanism of Eocene source rocks and oils are discussed in the generation process of hydrocarbon, the generation kinetics of the gas and some individual hydrocarbon. The result shows that the activation value of oil cracking is 30 kJ/mol higher than the thermolysis of source rocks. At the mature phase, the cracking gas from source rock contains less aromatic hydrocarbons and cycloparaffinic hydrocarbons. In view of above, natural gases in Minfeng area is mainly from Eocene source rocks.
