Abstract:

To clarify the correlation between reservoir densification and hydrocarbon charging in the Fuyu reservoir of the Sanzhao sag (Songliao Basin), the micro-pore/-throat characteristics of the reservoir were studied with micro-CT, fluid inclusion micro-analysis and basin simulation, and the accumulation period was quantitatively analyzed. According to the reservoir pore evolution, the relation between reservoir densification and hydrocarbon accumulation is analyzed. The results show that the Fuyu tight reservoir in Sanzhao sag contains mainly feldspathic lithic sandstone and lithic arkose, and the pore throat is featured by narrow throat, wide pore, poor configuration, and large total volume. Compaction and cementation are important for reservoir densification, and the compaction likely occurred before the end of Nenjiang Formation deposition. Fluid inclusion analysis results show that oil charging in the Fuyu reservoir can be divided into an early and late stage, with corresponding charging time of 77 to 74 Ma and 67 to 65 Ma, respectively, corresponding to the sedimentary period of Nenjiang Formation and the end of Mingshui Formation. Comprehensive comparison of hydrocarbon accumulation history and reservoir pore evolution characteristics of the Fuyu oil layer suggest that after reservoir densification occurred during the oil charging, the reservoir was first compacted and then generated.
