长期基准面旋回内河口坝构型的演化规律--以胜坨油田坨7断块沙二段下油组为例

综合应用高分辨率层序地层学理论和储层构型分析方法,以渤海湾盆地东营凹陷胜坨油田坨七断块沙二段下油组为例,研究长期基准面旋回背景下河口坝构型的演化规律。研究表明,研究区沙二段下油组对应一个长期基准面下降半旋回,并可进一步划分为8个中期基准面旋回及若干短期和超短期旋回。随着长期基准面的下降,河口坝越来越连片,坝体上分流河道的规模变大,延伸距离变长;在长期基准面下降早期,河口坝的侧向拼接样式以河口坝侧缘相互交错及河口坝之间被泥岩隔开样式居多,在长期基准面下降晚期,河口坝的侧向拼接样式主要为河口坝坝主体与侧缘的侧向叠置和河口坝侧缘与侧缘的侧向叠置;同时,随着长期基准面的下降,垂向上河口坝砂体间的连通性逐渐变好,河口坝前积的角度逐渐变小。长期基准面旋回对河口坝构型的控制主要通过可容空间的增减,沉积物供给速率的变化起作用。该研究对同类型油气田的砂体预测和剩余油分布的预测均具有重要的指导意义。     

曲流河点坝内部构型精细研究及应用

点坝是曲流河单砂体沉积单元中最重要的储集砂体,其内部侧积层是控制剩余油分布的主要因素。以港东油田二区五先导试验块为例,综合运用测井、岩心、密井网、水平井等资料,对点坝内部构型进行解剖,定量认识试验区侧积层厚度为0.2~0.3 m、倾角3.5°,侧积体规模、期次、大小不一。分级次嵌套式二次加密建立构型级别精细三维地质模型,并开展了精细油藏数值模拟研究,同时结合测井、岩心、分析化验等资料,认为剩余油主要分布在砂体顶部和侧积层附近。应用地质-建模-数模一体化研究成果,指导方案部署与现场实施,取得了较好效果,为点坝内部构型精细研究提供了一套新的思路与方法。     

Depositional architecture of the tertiary tectonic sequences and their response to foreland tectonism in the Kuqa depression, the Tarim Basin

The Tertiary Kuqa depression is a foreland basin generated by flexural subsidence resulting from the southward thrusting of the southern Tianshan Mountains. Tertiary basin fills of the depression can be classified into four tectonic sequences bounded by gentle angular unconformities. The sequences are composed of two parts, the lower transgressive and the upper progradational successions, which are separated by a regional maximum transgressive surface. The development of these sequences is attributed to the foreland tectonic process from flexural subsidence caused by thrust loading to rebounded uplift due to the erosion and stress release. The generation of the angular unconformities defining the tectonic sequences has been interpreted as the result of the rebounded uplift and the following thrusting. It has been found that there is a significant difference in depositional pattern between the northeastern and the northwestern margins. The relatively strong thrusting and mountain building occurring along the northwestern margin resulted in the development of thick-bedded alluvial fan and angular unconformities. The northeastern margin, in contract, lacks thick alluvial fan accumulation due to weak thrusting. This difference is likely related to the pre-existing east-west partition of the basin basement.

准噶尔盆地玛湖凹陷夏子街扇区三叠系百口泉组沉积演化特征*

玛湖凹陷是准噶尔盆地最具规模的油气聚集带与勘探区,发育以砾岩为主、具有较强非均质性的粗粒沉积复杂地层。对粗粒沉积体的精细刻画有助于研究沉积体内部的非均质性特征。应用储层构型分析法,结合研究区岩心、测井、录井资料,对玛湖凹陷夏子街扇区三叠系百口泉组沉积体内部9个级次构型要素的几何形态、大小、方向以及相互之间的叠置关系进行了表征,识别出12种岩石相类型以及10种由岩石相组合而成的沉积微相类型。通过分析沉积微相在垂向、平面上的不同组合特征,扇体的类型受沉积环境影响发生变化,逐渐由冲积扇、河流扇转换为扇三角洲,整体反映了湖平面上升或沉积物供给量逐渐减小的沉积背景。分析夏子街扇区各期次的扇体特征,包括长轴、短轴距离、长轴短轴比、扇根与扇缘厚度变化、扇体坡度变化、扇体最大粒径变化等,认为扇体顺物源方向有以下变化趋势: 沉积物粒径大小随河道搬运逐渐减小,减小的幅度受扇体坡度影响,坡度越陡沉积物粒径减小的越快;河道数量减少,流量降低;河道沉积物在横向和纵向上的连通性逐渐降低;砂岩、砾岩厚度逐渐减小,泥岩厚度逐渐增加,湖相沉积变得较为发育。总结玛湖凹陷百口泉组的各期次扇体共可归纳出6种扇体模式: 冲积扇、冲积—河流扇、河流—末梢扇、河流扇—扇三角洲、扇三角洲、大型河流扇。     

Hydraulic traits that buffer deep-rooted plants from changes in hydrology and climate

Groundwater-dependent ecosystems are often defined by the presence of deeply rooted phreatophytic plants. When connected to groundwater, phreatophytes in arid regions decouple ecosystem net primary productivity from precipitation, underscoring a disproportionately high biodiversity and exchange of resources relative to surrounding areas. However, groundwater-dependent ecosystems are widely threatened due to the effects of water diversions, groundwater abstraction, and higher frequencies of episodic drought and heat waves. The resilience of these ecosystems to shifting ecohydrological–climatological conditions will depend largely on the capacity of dominant, phreatophytic plants to cope with dramatic reductions in water availability and increases in atmospheric water demand. This paper disentangles the broad range of hydraulic traits expressed by phreatophytic vegetation to better understand their capacity to survive or even thrive under shifting ecohydrological conditions. We focus on three elements of plant water relations: (a) hydraulic architecture (including root area to leaf area ratios and rooting depth), (b) xylem structure and function, and (c) stomatal regulation. We place the expression of these traits across a continuum of phreatophytic habits from obligate to semi-obligate to semi-facultative to facultative. Although many species occupy multiple phreatophytic niches depending on access to groundwater, we anticipate that populations are largely locally adapted to a narrow range of ecohydrological conditions regardless of gene flow across ecohydrological gradients. Consequently, we hypothesize that reductions in available groundwater and increases in atmospheric water demand will result in either (a) stand replacement of obligate phreatophytic species with more facultative species as a function of widespread mortality in highly groundwater-dependent populations or (b) directional selection in semi-obligate and semi-facultative phreatophytes towards the expression of traits associated with highly facultative phreatophytes in the absence of species replacement. Anticipated shifts in the expression of hydraulic traits may have profound impacts on water cycling processes, species assemblages, and habitat structure of groundwater-dependent woodlands and riparian forests.     

Evolution of an ancient coastal plain: palaeosols, interfluves and alluvial architecture in a sequence stratigraphic framework, Cenomanian Dunvegan Formation, NE British Columbia, Canada

To date, discussion of changes in alluvial style and in the character of palaeosols in relation to changes in accommodation and sediment supply on floodplains has primarily been from a conceptual standpoint: few case studies are available against which to test ideas. One hundred and thirty metres of non-marine strata of the Dunvegan Formation were examined in 14 closely spaced sections in the canyon of the Kiskatinaw River, NE British Columbia, Canada. This site was located about 120 km inland from the transgressive limit of the contemporary marine shoreline and represents almost exclusively freshwater environments. Fluvial channels in the Kiskatinaw River section are of two types. Small, single-storey, very fine- to fine-grained sandstone ribbons with W/T ratios <30, encased in fine-grained floodplain sediments are interpreted as anastomosed channels. Fine- to medium-grained, laterally accreted point-bar deposits forming multistorey sand bodies with individual W/T ratios >30 are interpreted as the deposits of meandering rivers filling incised valleys. Interchannel facies include the deposits of crevasse channels and splays, lakes, floodplains and palaeosols. Floodplain palaeosols consist of laterally heterogeneous, simple palaeosol profiles and pedocomplexes similar to modern Entisols, Inceptisols and hydromorphic soils. Interfluve, sequence-bounding palaeosols adjacent to incised valleys are laterally continuous, up to 3 m thick and can be reliably identified using a combination of (1) stratigraphic position; (2) field observations, such as thickness, structure, colour, degree of rooting; and (3) micromorphological features, such as evidence of bioturbation, clay coatings, ferruginous features and sphaerosiderite. Interfluve palaeosols are similar to modern Alfisols and Ultisols. Correlation of the local stratigraphic succession with the regional sequence stratigraphic framework, based on 2340 well logs and 60 outcrop sections, shows that the vertical changes in coastal plain character (more coals and lakes vs. more pedogenesis) can be related to relatively high-frequency base level cycles (eustatic?) that are expressed as transgressive–regressive marine cycles in downdip areas. Regional isopach maps show that these cycles were progressively overprinted and modified by an increasing rate of tectonic subsidence in the north and west. The character of palaeosols developed on aggrading floodplains primarily reflects local sediment supply and drainage. In contrast, well-developed interfluve palaeosols record pedogenesis during periods of reduced or negative accommodation (base level fall). Vertical changes in floodplain palaeoenvironments and palaeosol types reflect changes in accommodation rate. The detailed micromorphological analysis of interfluve palaeosols represents a powerful application of an under-used technique for the recognition of key surfaces in the geological record. This has broad implications for non-marine sequence stratigraphy.
