Abstract:

To deeply investigate the genesis of carbonate cement in reservoirs of Jurassic Badaowan Formation in AH5 well block of the Junggar Basin, and to discuss the influence on the reservoir physical property and oiliness for evaluating/predicting reservoirs in later period, we studied the types, forming period, genesis and the influence on reservoir quality through combining thin-section petrography and carbon-oxygen isotope analyses in carbonate cement.The results show at least two periods of carbonate cement in the Badaowan Formation: micritic siderite and crystalline calcite in the early diagenetic stage (limited distribution), and granular siderite, ferrocalcite and ankerite developed in the late diagenetic stage (secondary dissolution pore infill), and ankerite has the highest volume.δ13CPDB of carbonate cement=-13.6‰ to -6.5‰, and δ18OPDB=-21‰ to -18.1‰.The paleosalinity and paleotemperature estimated from the carbon-oxygen isotope compositions show that the carbonate cement was formed in freshwater environment at 112 to 136.1 ℃, based on that the forming time was the middle diagenetic period.The carbon source in carbonate cement was of organic origin through carbon diagram and analysis on natural gas isotopes.Reservoirs with carbonate cement have always bad physical property, and reservoirs with ankerite cement have better physical property through combining physical property, fluorescence thin-section and carbonate cement content analysis.The higher volume of ankerite would have more early secondary dissolved pores and better reservoir oiliness.
