基于连续消光特征分析的岩石薄片分析系统

连续消光是指在正交偏光显微镜下,岩石薄片随载物台旋转而发生消光强弱连续变化的现象。作为人工鉴定岩石薄片的重要依据,提取后的连续消光特征可以用于实现岩石薄片的自动分析。结合数字图像处理技术与聚类划分算法,开发出一套能够分割出孔隙、颗粒轮廓,实现颗粒类别划分,并对结果做定量分析的岩石薄片分析系统。从矿物的消光特征本质出发,连续消光特征提取精确与否是能否有效划分颗粒类别的关键环节。因此,针对系统在连续消光特征提取过程中的消光位对齐与消光基值去除操作分别设置了对照组。以鄂尔多斯盆地某区长6段砂岩薄片在正交偏光镜下的角度域序列图像进行实验,结果表明,所开发的基于岩石薄片分析系统能够提取到更为精确的连续消光特征,且该系统定量分析结果与专业人员鉴定结果基本一致。     

现代黄河三角洲沉积层压实下沉的计算分析

1855年以来形成的厚度为15 m的现代黄河三角洲分流叶瓣在遭废弃后的最近30 a内的沉积压实幅度为2.28～3.87 m,年平均压实量达0.1 m,其中黏土质粉砂被压实了25.8%,粉砂沉积地层被压实了15.2%,黏土质粉砂的沉积压实量是粉砂沉积压实量的1.7倍,在此期间基本上完成了三角洲压实下沉过程。下伏沉积地层的压缩量有限,不同沉积年代的沉积压实下沉量相差小,如厚度为20～30 m的沉积压实量仅有0.2～0.28 m,其中黏土质粉砂被压实了0.91%,粉砂被压实了1.19%,沉积地层平均被压实了1%。无论是黏土质粉砂还是粉砂,孔隙度与沉积地层深度呈负指数函数关系,黏粒含量愈高,孔隙水则愈难以排出,覆盖在下伏沉积地层上面的表层沉积物对压实下沉贡献愈大。     

Characterizing the hydraulic properties of unsaturated sand considering various porosities and drying‐wetting paths of the retention curve

Previous studies have shown that water retention curve (WRC) and the hydraulic conductivity vary because of changes of the void ratio or porosity of soil. However, limited documents pointed out the change of hydraulic properties of soil when compacted to different porosities while considering both of the drying and wetting processes of the WRC. This information is sometimes necessary for research like finger flow analysis or the occurrence of wetting and drying cycles as what would be seen in the field. Therefore, this study aims to examine the change of WRC characteristics with varied porosity considering both of the drying and wetting path in WRC by conducting a sand box experiment. Results show that the same type of sand compacted to various porosities have different hydraulic parameters. Hydraulic conductivities generally decrease with reduced porosities; shape parameter α of the van Genuchten equation (1980) linearly decreases with declining porosity and shape parameter n in a reversal manner for the sands of interest whether in the drying process or wetting process. The unsaturated properties of sand are further characterized by inspecting the variations of moisture content, matric suction and vertical displacement of soil body subject to periodic changes of the water level by another sand box experiment. The outcomes suggest that the saturated water content and residual water content are changing during the wetting–drying process, which can be an implication of the changed properties of WRC. The characteristics of volumetric deformation might be varied as well because of the observation of the dissimilar patterns of the changing vertical displacements among each wetting–drying process. Infiltration patterns of the sands also are identified through numerical modelling by introducing a constant infiltration flux from the surface followed by a no‐influx condition. Results indicate that less water accumulates in the sand near the surface for the sand compacted to higher porosity, but water can move deeper. Hydraulic conductivity is found as the prime factor dominating the evolvement of wetting fronts. However, shape parameters of water retention curves also affect the infiltration pattern to some extent. In addition, different sands with similar porosities can have quite different infiltrating characteristics. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Transport properties of rocks from statistics and percolation

Two simplified microstructural models that account for permeability and conductivity of low-porosity rocks are compared. Both models result from statistics and percolation theory. The first model assumes that transport results from the connection of 1D objects or pipes; the second model assumes that transport results from the connection of 2D objects or cracks. In both cases, statistical methods permit calculation of permeability k and conductivity , which are dependent on three independent microvariables: average pipe (crack) length, average pipe radius (crack aperture), and average pipe (crack) spacing. The degree of connection is one aspect of percolation theory. Results show that use of the mathematical concept of percolation and use of the rock physics concept of tortuosity are equivalent. Percolation is used to discuss k and near the threshold where these parameters vanish. Relations between bulk parameters (permeability, conductivity, porosity) are calculated and discussed in terms of microvariables.

本文通过对京山地区寒武—奥陶系碳酸盐岩成岩作用和孔隙演化的研究,认为本区寒武—奥陶系普遍经历了海底、大气淡水、埋藏及表生成岩环境,其间发生的成岩作用主要有胶结作用、白云岩化、压实-压溶、溶蚀和破裂作用。在这些成岩作用的改造下,岩石孔隙度从大于20％下降到1.5～5％,其中在中新生代孔隙相对较发育。     

大孔隙与大孔隙率矿石的石蜡法体重测定中的修正问题

以伽玛测井解释含量确定铀矿储量时，矿石体重应该是天然状态下的体重，当矿心孔隙度较大而有部分失水，并存在表面大孔隙时，封蜡法所测得的体重系统偏小。对此，本文改进了测定方法，提出了修正方案，并以某矿床为例分析了产生表面孔隙的原因及修正后的具体结果。     

规则球粒堆积体的孔隙度

以椭球堆积体为模型，求出圆球、扁球、长球、椭球４种堆积体的理论孔隙度极值相同，并导出了政府孔隙度的通式。认为理论孔隙度的大小仅与规则球粒的排列方式有关，当某一规则球粒堆积体受压而使该规则球粒变形为另一种规则球粒时，只要排列方式不变，其理论孔隙度也不变。     

Waxman-Smith方程在生油岩评价中的应用:重叠法和双孔隙度法

提出了两种新的生油岩测井评价方法，即基于砂泥岩导电机理，借助泥质砂岩导电方程：Ｗａｘｍａｎ－Ｓｍｉｔｈ方程计算含水泥岩电阻率Ｒ０值及生油岩的电阻率孔隙度Ｒ．然后用实测Ｒｔ减去Ｒ０值，其差值反映了生油岩的有机质丰度（即重叠法）；用三孔隙度测井计算的生油岩总孔隙度Ｔ，减去电阻率孔隙度Ｒ，其差值也反映了生油岩的有机质丰度（即双孔隙度法）．该方法的最大优点是在现场缺少生油岩实验室分析样品时可以快速评价生油岩的有机质丰度。     

吉林腰英台油田油水分布特征及成因探讨

腰英台油田是东北地区新发现的油田，目前刚开始勘探开发，在勘探开发初期遇到不少问题。其中之一是开采时高含水：就油田的实际油水分布特征进行了分析，分析油水同出的可能原因，认为这是受油藏储层物性及构造幅度和实际油柱高度的影响，由于储层低孔、特低渗。实际构造幅度低，实际油柱高度大多低于油藏产纯油所需的油柱高度，致使油藏大都处于油水过渡带。故开采时多含水，油水同出。根据这一分析，认为进一步的油气勘探重点考虑西部水下冲积扇的有利部位。此处储层物性好，有利于接受更多油源。
