Study on the Cretaceous turbidite and reservoir features in the Qingshankou Formation in northern Songliao Basin,NE China

Based on analysis of well and drilling data, cores, sediment grains and 3D seismic data, four types of turbidites–slope fan, channelized, laminated and sublacustrine fan turbidite–are identified in Members 1 and 2 of the Qingshankou Formation in northern Songliao Basin. The slope fan turbidite is located in Members 1 and 2 of the Qingshankou Formation. It is dominated by silt and fine sand and is distributed in an SN-trending ribbon zone along the slope break at delta front in the western part of the basin. The channelized turbidite is located at the bottom of Member 1 of the Qingshankou Formation. It is dominated by silt and fine sand and is distributed in an SN-trending strip-shaped zone along the Qijia-Gulong sag, with funnel-shaped sublacustrine fans at the end. The laminated turbidite body is located in Member 2 of the Qingshankou Formation. It is dominated by siltstone and argillaceous siltstone and is distributed continuously in a tongue-shaped zone along the northern delta front towards the lacustrine region, with belt-like distributaries at the central part and sublacustrine fans at the end. Low-permeability and low-yield lithologic reservoirs are formed near the delta front within the slope fan turbidite and channelized turbidite. There are “sweet spots” in local regions, where reservoir reform techniques are required to attain high industrial yields. Laminated turbidite and sublacustrine fans can form unconventional and continuous reservoirs that generally have no natural productivity; industrial production is impossible until horizontal drilling and multistage volume fracturing are employed. Therefore, the research results are important to the exploration of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs in northern Songliao Basin.     

Sedimentary facies associations and sequence stratigraphy of source and reservoir rocks of the lacustrine Eocene Niubao Formation (Lunpola Basin,central Tibet)

The Eocene Niubao Formation of the Lunpola Basin, a large Cenozoic intermontane basin in central Tibet, is an important potential hydrocarbon source and reservoir unit. It represents ∼20 Myr of lacustrine sedimentation in a half-graben with a sharply fault-bounded northern margin and a low-angle flexural southern margin, resulting in a highly asymmetric distribution of depositional facies and sediment thicknesses along the N-S axis of the basin. An integrated investigation of well-logs, seismic data, cores and outcrops revealed three third-order sequences (SQ1 to SQ3), each representing a cycle of rising and falling lake levels yielding lowstand, transgressive, and highstand systems tracts. Lowstand systems tracts (LST) include delta and fan delta facies spread widely along the gentle southern margin and concentrated narrowly along the steep northern margin of the basin, with sublacustrine fan sand bodies extending into the basin center. Highstand systems tracts (HST) include expanded areas of basin-center shale deposition, with sublacustrine fans, deltas and fan deltas locally developed along the basin margins. Sequence development may reflect episodes of tectonic uplift and base-level changes. The southern margin of the basin exhibits two different structural styles that locally influenced sequence development, i.e., a multi-step fault belt in the south-central sector and a flexure belt in the southeastern sector. The sedimentary model and sequence stratigraphic framework developed in this study demonstrate that N2 (the middle member of Niubao Formation) exhibits superior hydrocarbon potential, characterized by thicker source rocks and a wider distribution of sand-body reservoirs, although N3 (the upper member of Niubao Formation) also has good potential. Fault-controlled lithologic traps are plentiful along the basin margins, representing attractive targets for future exploratory drilling for hydrocarbons.

Three-dimensional facies architecture analysis using sequence stratigraphy and seismic sedimentology: Example from the Paleogene Dongying Formation in the BZ3-1 block of the Bozhong Sag,Bohai Bay Basin,China

The Bohai Bay Basin is a classic non-marine rift basin in eastern China. The Paleogene Dongying sequences are the main hydrocarbon-bearing stratigraphic unit in the basin. Using three-dimensional (3-D) seismic data and one well control in the BZ3-1 Block in the western slope of the Bozhong Sag, we analyzed 3-D facies architectures of the Dongying sequences. The Dongying Formation, a second-order sequence, can be subdivided into four third-order sequences (from base to top: SQ1, SQ2, SQ3, and SQ4). The facies architecture was analyzed by using the seismic sedimentology approach based on 3-D seismic data. Sediment of the Dongying sequences was derived from the northern Shijiutuo Uplift via four major configurations of incised valleys, namely “V”, “U”, “W”, and composite shaped incised valleys. Seismic stratal slices reveal branching and converging characteristics of the channels from upstream to downstream. On the basis of an integrated analysis of well log, core data, seismic facies based on multi-seismic attributes, three sedimentary facies (e.g., “delta”, “fan-delta”, and “shore” or “shallow lacustrine” facies) have been recognized. The four types of incised valleys and their evolution control the sedimentary systems in the sedimentation area. The numbers and sizes of the fans are controlled by the sedimentary systems at various scales. Incised valley-fill and deltaic sand bodies are excellent hydrocarbon reservoirs and potentially good exploration targets for the study area. The reservoir quality of sequences SQ1, SQ2, and SQ3 become better gradually from base to top. The proposed sediment dispersal patterns may aid in the prediction of potential reservoir distribution. This study also demonstrates that facies architecture analysis using sequence stratigraphy and seismic sedimentology may serve as an effective approach for constructing 3D facies models for petroleum exploration in areas lacking of well or outcrop data.

Upper Jurassic overlapping-fans slope-apron system: Brae oilfield, North Sea

The Brae oilfield reservoir in the North Sea comprises Upper Jurassic resedimented conglomerates and sandstones interbedded with organic-rich silstone and mudstone thin-bedded turbidites. The system represents a series of small overlapping fans that form a thick (300 m) slope-apron accumulation of sediments deposited in a narrow (<10 km wide) belt along an active fault zone. The complex lateral and vertical distribution of facies was due mainly to variable tectonic activity, and partly also to sediment supply and sea-level changes. Margin setting represents fan and/or source area

Gravels in the Daxing conglomerate and their effect on reservoirs in the Oligocene Langgu Depression of the Bohai Bay Basin,North China

The Daxing conglomerate reservoir has become an important exploration target in the Langgu Depression of the Bohai Bay Basin. In this paper, gravel composition, void space, poroperm characteristics and hydrocarbon productivity of the Daxing conglomerate in the third member of the Oligocene Shahejie Formation (Es3) are studied in detail to understand the impact of gravel type on reservoir quality based on cores, petrographic thin-sections, scanning electron microscope (SEM) photos, porosity, permeability and well test data. The Daxing conglomerate is composed of limestone and dolomite gravels. The void space of the Daxing conglomerate includes intragravel and intergravel pores as well as fissures. Intragravel pores are dominated by gravel type. They develop as intergranular pores, intergranular dissolved pores, intragranular dissolved pores and few intercrystalline pores in limestone gravels, whereas in dolomite gravels they develop as intercrystalline pores, intercrystalline dissolved pores, dissolved pores and cavities, few intergranular pores and intergranular dissolved pores. The analysis shows that dolomite conglomerates provide better reservoir quality than limestone conglomerates. Microscopically, areal porosity in dolomite gravels is higher than that in limestone gravels. Macroscopically, porosity and permeability of conglomerates that are dominated by dolomite gravels (dolomite conglomerates) are better than those of conglomerates dominated by limestone gravels (limestone conglomerates). The dolomite conglomerates are superior to the limestone conglomerate with regard to hydrocarbon productivity at the level of parent rock and gravel properties. Poroperm characteristics and hydrocarbon productivity of dolomite reservoirs in the middle Proterozoic Changcheng and Jixian Systems (parent rocks of dolomite gravels) are better than those of the limestone reservoirs in the lower Paleozoic, Cambrian and Ordovician (parent rocks of limestone gravels). Gravel properties, including grain structure, physical nature and dissolution velocity cause the dolomite conglomerates to have more intercrystalline pores, fissures and secondary dissolved pores than limestone conglomerates.

Sedimentology,architecture, and sequence stratigraphy of coarse-grained,submarine canyon fills from the Pleistocene (Gelasian-Calabrian) of the Peri-Adriatic basin,central Italy

The Plio-Pleistocene stratigraphic record of the Peri-Adriatic basin (eastern central Italy) is well exposed along the uplifted western margin of the basin and consists of a series of coarse-grained slope canyon fills encased in a thick succession of hemipelagic mudstones. This study deals with the detailed sedimentology, stratal architecture, and sequence-stratigraphic interpretation of two of these submarine canyon-fills (namely CMC1 and CMC2) exposed at Colle Montarone. These strata contain widespread evidence of gravity-driven sedimentation processes, with high- and low-density turbidity currents, slumps and cohesive debris flows being responsible for most of the sediment transport and deposition. Beds are organised into four recurrent lithofacies, each corresponding to a specific deep-water depositional element: (i) clast-supported conglomerates (channel complexes); (ii) thin-bedded sandstones and mudstones (levee-overbank); (iii) very thinly-bedded mudstones (tributary channels); (iv) pebbly mudstones and chaotically bedded mudstones (mass-transport complexes).     

南海北部北部湾盆地迈陈凹陷中南部X井油气成藏地质条件

根据X井钻遇的古近系和新近系有机质镜质体反射率分析,确定X井生烃门限深度在2 600m以下,那么该井钻遇始新统流沙港组泥岩有机质丰度较高的井段（2 100~2 285m）尚未达成熟门槛,而生烃门限以下的烃源岩有机质丰度较低,生烃潜力差,不能提供充足的烃源供给,故导致X井勘探失利。X井位于北部湾盆地迈陈凹陷东3洼南部边缘,钻遇流沙港组厚度达568.5m,且泥岩厚度占该组地层的62.3%,其中单层泥岩最大厚度高达115m,表明流沙港组沉积时期水体环境偏深,沉积可容空间大,可见X井钻探结果与前人＂迈5号同生断裂始新世活动弱,沉积可容空间小,导致东3洼缺少油气形成的物质基础＂的结论存在较大偏差。由于X井处在东3洼陷边缘,流沙港组顶部剥蚀强度较大,推测靠近东3洼沉降中心的始新统流沙港组湖相泥岩沉积厚,埋深亦加大,完全能够达到有机质成熟生烃门槛,故应具有较好的油气成藏地质条件和勘探潜力。
