Abstract:

The medium-shallow traps of rift basin often covered source rocks, and the reservoir has the characteristics of multi-sourced hydrocarbons. To deepen the understanding of hydrocarbon accumulation characteristics and delineate favorable exploration targets on medium-shallow sequences in rift basins, we took the 2nd member of the Shahejie Formation in the Bonan sag as an example. Based on data of drilling, logging, seismic and other analyses, we demonstrate that three source rock suites (Es4s, Es3, Es1) in the Bonan sag may have provided the oil and gas for hydrocarbon accumulation in Es2, during the deposition of Upper Guantao Formation and Upper Minghuazhen Formation. Fault system is likely a key condition for hydrocarbon accumulation, which connects oil sources and provides a vertical channel for oil and gas migration. Physical properties of the reservoir determines the oil-bearing properties, which in turn determines the degree of oil endowment. Oil and gas migration and accumulation regularity of “two-stage reservoir-forming and multi-sourced hydrocarbon” exists in the 2nd member of Shahejie Formation, and the single-sourced oil and mixed-source oil reservoirs were formed in different types of traps with the different hydrocarbon migration and accumulation regularities. The model of “multi-sourced hydrocarbon” and its major controlling factors indicate the favorable exploration direction of Es2 in Bonan sag, The favorable exploration direction is likely the central beach-bar sandstone, the southern fan delta-front edge and the southwestern multi-type reservoir development zone. The focus of oil and gas exploration in each area is likely different, and so is the risk of exploration.

Key words: medium-shallow sequence in rift basin, hydrocarbon accumulation feature, multi-sourced hydrocarbon, prospectivity analysis, Bonan sag, Shahejie Formation (2nd member)
