In Yidun\|Zhongdian and in Zhiso\|Muli, The Lower Permian is clastics\|carbonates\|volcanics with interbeds of siliceous sediments, Whereas the Upper Permian is composed of lower part of basic volcanics and upper part of clastics\|carbonates with a total thickness of 1000～4000 meters .In Zhongzha (Batang)\|Jingping region, It is mainly carbonates of 217～1320 meters thick, But in Jingping proper, there occur about 5000 meters thick basalts of early late Permian . From Batang to Benzinan along the Jinshajiang river , the lower Permian is clastics\|volcanics\|carbonates formation with interbeds of siliceous sediments and spilite formation; Whereas the Upper Permian is clastics with volcanic interbeds; The total thickness being 3700 to 7100 meters. In Jiangda—Mangco (Mangkang), It is clastic\|carbonate\|volcanic formation of 1100 to 2400 meters . In Tuoba (Qamdo)—Haitong (Mankang)—Ximi (Mujiang ), It is mainly clastics\|carbonates formation , the Upper Permian being coal\|bearing clastics sequence and the total thickness being 700～2500 meters ,In Zhado—Zhasuosuo (Mangkang)—Deqing—Qinggu—Qinghong, It is clastic\|carbonate\|volcanic formation, locally with coal\|bearing clastics of Upper Permian and the total thickness of mainly carbonate formation and clastic formation with coal\|bearing clastic formation of Uppermian, is 800 to 2000 meters. In the whole area , the Permian strata were slightly metamorphosed, locally more intensively metamorphosed up to amphibolite facies. The fossils found belong to fusulinids, coral, brachiopods,ammonite,bivalve, gastropods, bryozoa,foraminifera, trilobite, algae ,porifera (sponge), and continental plant . Besides the Gondwana cold\|water type components of brachiopods found in Baoshan, the fossils belong mainly to Cathaysian biota, especially to South China type. In some places such as Mangkang, Guxue (Dewong), to South China type. In some places such as Mangkang, Guxue (Dewong), and Wachang (Muli), the resedimented Late Carboniferous fusulinid fossils can be found in the clastic limestone of Lower Permian, and the Early Permian or even Middle to Late Carboniferous fusulinid fossils found in Upper Permian classic limestone. All these suggest the resedimentation of biolimestone blocks or fragments related to fault\|volcanism .On the section of Tongba (Muli), the permian is continuous graded upwards into the Triassic, with a transitional zone of fossil.展开更多

In this section, the sediments of Faraghan Formation, which is gradationally overlain by Dalan formation, unconformably overlies Zakin Formation (Lower Carboniferous). In the upper part, Kangan Formation rests on the Permian deposits with an erosional and unconformable contact. Studying the microscopic thin sections led to the identification of 37 genera and 37 species of Foraminifera as well as 14 genera and 15 species of algae. According to the identified foraminifera in Faraghan and Dalan Formations, the age of the rock units in Permian system is assigned to Julfian-Asselian.展开更多

The systematics is set up on the phenetic-cladistic systematics. A number of important theoretical concepts in the cladistics are added the concept of time in the systematics. For example, the time-span between the closest sister species is considered limited in the duration of their mother species. The foundational methodology of the systematics is to analyze sister-group and character mosaic distribution, and the key to study evolutionary sequence is to understand cbaracter mosaic distribution fully. These aualyses can be executed by using computer. In the paper, the Permian Waagenophylloid coral fauna is taken as an example to illustrate the analysis on evolutionary sequence. These coral fossils are widespread in Tethyan area.Seventeen characters and a number of cbaracter states for each character used in study result from features of Waagenophylloid corals. According to principles of tbe widest distribution of character states, fossil records and ontogenesis we discerned plesiomorph character states for each character. Characters are divided into 4 ranks on the basis of their important place in pkylogeny. Based on the theory and methopology of tbe evolutionary sequence systematics the paper analyzes the sister groups and evolutionary sequence. In the examination each other between the analyses of sister groups and evolutionary sequence tbe paper found many importunt phenomena of paleontology,such as character degeneration, parallel evolution, and polydirectional clades, and distinguished a number of abnormal order. Iu the discussion to test tke rirst occurrence event8 of biostratigraphy we infer the Possible stratigraphic levels of some fossils.展开更多

文摘The Middle Permian system in the Sichuan Basin represents favorable conditions for the formation of natural gas reservoirs.However,only fracture-vuggy limestone gas reservoirs were discovered in early exploration,whose scales and results were limited.In 2014,a high-yield industrial gas flow was produced there in Well Shuangtan 1,the major risk-exploration well,which means a great breakthrough in natural gas exploration in the Middle Permian system,Sichuan Basin.This plays a strategically important and guiding role in oil and gas exploration in ultra-deep marine formations.This paper illustrates the deployment background of Well Shuangtan 1,major exploration achievements and its significance in the gas exploration in the Middle Permian system,Sichuan Basin.Moreover,exploration potential and subsequent exploration targets of Middle Permian are analyzed in terms of its hydrocarbon source conditions,sedimentary characteristics,reservoir characteristics and areal extension,resources and favorable exploration zones.It is concluded that the Middle Permian system in the Sichuan Basin is a continent-connected carbonate platform with carbonate deposits being dominant.There are three types of reservoirs,including pore dolomite,karst fracture-vuggy,and fracture,which present considerable natural gas resources and huge exploration potential.Favorable exploration zones classification of Middle Permian in the Sichuan Basin indicates that the most favorable exploration zones are mainly distributed in the central-western Sichuan Basin.In particular,the northwestern Sichuan Basin is the most favorable exploration area which is characterized by the most excellent hydrocarbon source conditions,developed dolomite reservoirs and zonal distribution of structures.

文摘In the South Yellow Sea Basin,Mesozoic–Paleozoic marine strata are generally well developed with large thickness,and no substantial breakthroughs have been made in hydrocarbon exploration.Through research,it is believed that the Upper Permian–Lower Triassic can be regarded as a long-term base-level cycle.Based on drilling data,characteristics of the lithology–electric property combination cyclicity,and the special lithology,the long-term base-level cycle was divided into five medium-term base-level cycles(MC1–MC5).On this basis,the Permian–Triassic sedimentary systems and their filling model were analyzed in accordance with the change of base-level cycle and transition of sedimentary environment,as well as characteristics of the drilling sedimentary facies and seismic facies.The results show that there were six sedimentary systems(fluvial,delta,tidal flat,open platform,restricted platform,and continental shelf)developed in the Upper Permian–Lower Triassic,the sedimentary systems were distributed such that the water was deep in the northwest and shallow in the southeast,and there were two base-level cycle filling models(a relatively stable tidal flat facies and a rapidly transgressive continental shelf facies to stable platform facies)developed in the Upper Permian–Lower Triassic.These models can provide a basis for evaluation of the Mesozoic–Paleozoic hydrocarbon geology in the South Yellow Sea Basin.
文摘Evolutionary sequence systematics is a discipline in paleontology and biology that deals with phylogeny of organism, the main purpose of which is to understand relatives between species and taxa and to show their evolutionary sequence. The systematics is set up on the phenetic-cladistic systematics. A number of important theoretical concepts in the cladistics are added the concept of time in the systematics. For example, the time-span between the closest sister species is considered limited in the duration of their mother species. The foundational methodology of the systematics is to analyze sister-group and character mosaic distribution, and the key to study evolutionary sequence is to understand cbaracter mosaic distribution fully. These aualyses can be executed by using computer. In the paper, the Permian Waagenophylloid coral fauna is taken as an example to illustrate the analysis on evolutionary sequence. These coral fossils are widespread in Tethyan area.Seventeen characters and a number of cbaracter states for each character used in study result from features of Waagenophylloid corals. According to principles of tbe widest distribution of character states, fossil records and ontogenesis we discerned plesiomorph character states for each character. Characters are divided into 4 ranks on the basis of their important place in pkylogeny. Based on the theory and methopology of tbe evolutionary sequence systematics the paper analyzes the sister groups and evolutionary sequence. In the examination each other between the analyses of sister groups and evolutionary sequence tbe paper found many importunt phenomena of paleontology,such as character degeneration, parallel evolution, and polydirectional clades, and distinguished a number of abnormal order. Iu the discussion to test tke rirst occurrence event8 of biostratigraphy we infer the Possible stratigraphic levels of some fossils.

文摘This study deals with unraveling the diagenesis-induced porosity evolution in a mixed clastic-carbonate sequence of the Middle Permian Indus Basin,Pakistan.Multiple data sets including outcrop,petrography,cathodoluminescence,scanning electron microscopy(SEM),mineralogy,and geochemical isotopic compositions were integrated to establish a link between porosity evolution and diagenesis.The spatial thickness and facies variations of the strata at outcrop scale are inherently controlled by the underlying bathymetry of the basin with deepening westward trend.The low values ofδ^(18)O of the target strata,relative to average values of the Permian carbonate,hints to diagenetic alteration in the strata.The data sets used in this study reveal modification of the strata in four environments,that is,i)early marine diagenesis indicated by micritization,pervasive dolomitization and isopachous fibrous cements,followed by ii)meteoric dissolution,and iii)shallow burial diagenetic processes including the precipitation of blocky cement,compaction of skeletal and non-skeletal allochems,and stylolites,and iv)a deep burial environment,characterized by pressure solution,and micro-fractures.The clastic intervals host subangular to subrounded quartz grains,floating textures,and almost complete absence of deleterious clay minerals,consequently resulting in the preservation of primary porosity.The primary porosity of carbonate intervals is preserved in the form of intercrystalline and intracrystalline porosity.The secondary porosity evolved through various diagenetic phases in the form of fractures and dissolution.The diagenetic solution mediated by organic matter in carbonates may have experienced both bacterial decomposition and thermochemical sulfate reduction,precipitating sulfides within the pores.The plug porosity/permeability analyses generally suggest high porosity in the siliciclastic unit,and carbonates with wackestone fabric while lower values were observed for the inner shelf pure carbonate facies.However,both intervals show very low permeability values probably due to isolated moldic pores and intense micritization.Therefore,clastic intervals may provide an opportunity to serve as a moderate reservoir;however,the carbonate intervals possess very low permeability values and could generally be considered as low-moderate reservoir potential.

文摘Based on the experimental results of casting thin section,low temperature nitrogen adsorption,high pressure mercury injection,nuclear magnetic resonance T2 spectrum,contact angle and oil-water interfacial tension,the relationship between pore throat structure and crude oil mobility characteristics of full particle sequence reservoirs in the Lower Permian Fengcheng Formation of Mahu Sag,Junggar Basin,are revealed.(1)With the decrease of reservoir particle size,the volume of pores connected by large throats and the volume of large pores show a decreasing trend,and the distribution and peak ranges of throat and pore radius shift to smaller size in an orderly manner.The upper limits of throat radius,porosity and permeability of unconventional reservoirs in Fengcheng Formation are approximately 0.7μm,8%and 0.1×10^(−3)μm^(2),respectively.(2)As the reservoir particle size decreases,the distribution and peak ranges of pores hosting retained oil and movable oil are shifted to a smaller size in an orderly manner.With the increase of driving pressure,the amount of retained and movable oil of the larger particle reservoir samples shows a more obvious trend of decreasing and increasing,respectively.(3)With the increase of throat radius,the driving pressure of reservoir with different particle levels presents three stages,namely rapid decrease,slow decrease and stabilization.The oil driving pressures of various reservoirs and the differences of them decrease with the increase of temperature and obviously decrease with the increase of throat radius.According to the above experimental analysis,it is concluded that the deep shale oil of Fengcheng Formation in Mahu Sag has great potential for production under geological conditions.

文摘Based on the data of drilling,logging,experiment and gas testing in the Nanchuan area,southeastern Sichuan Basin,the hydrocarbon generation potential,gas genesis,occurrence state,migration,preservation conditions,pore and fracture features and accumulation evolution of the first member of Permian Maokou Formation(Mao 1 Member)are systematically studied,and the main controlling factors of unconventional gas enrichment and high production in marlstone assemblage of Mao 1 Member are discussed.(1)The enrichment and high yield of unconventional natural gas in the Mao 1 Member are controlled by three factors:carbon-rich fabric controlling hydrocarbon generation potential,good preservation controlling enrichment,and natural fracture controlling production.(2)The carbonate rocks of Mao 1 Member with carbon rich fabric have significant gas potential,exhibiting characteristics of self-generation and self-storage,which lays the material foundation for natural gas accumulation.(3)The occurrence state of natural gas is mainly free gas,which is prone to lateral migration,and good storage conditions are the key to natural gas enrichment.Positive structure is more conducive to natural gas accumulation,and a good compartment is created jointly by the self-sealing property of the Mao 1 Member and its top and bottom sealing property in monoclinal area,which is favorable for gas accumulation by retention.(4)Natural fractures are the main reservoir space and flow channel,and the more developed natural fractures are,the more conducive to the formation of high-quality porous-fractured reservoirs and the accumulation of natural gas,which is the core of controlling production.(5)The accumulation model of unconventional natural gas is proposed as“self-generation and self-storage,preservation controlling richness,and fractures controlling production”.(6)Identifying fracture development areas with good preservation conditions is the key to successful exploration,and implementing horizontal well staged acidizing and fracturing is an important means to increase production and efficiency.The study results are of referential significance for further understanding the natural gas enrichment in the Mao 1 Member and guiding the efficient exploration and development of new types of unconventional natural gas.

文摘The Chinese Altai,a key component of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt(CAOB),represents a significant Phanerozoic accretionary orogenic belt.The oceanic-continental subduction processes spanning the Cambrian to Carboniferous and subsequent intracontinental extension since the Triassic have been well documented in the Chinese Altai,the southwestern segment of the CAOB.Deciphering the petrogenetic evolution of this region during the Permian is thus crucial for advancing our understanding of its tectonic transitions.However,the Permian tectonic setting of the Chinese Altai remains contentious.To address this knowledge gap,this study presents new geochronological and geochemical data for the Jiangjunshan pluton in the southern Chinese Altai.Zircon U-Pb geochronology reveals that the gabbro and two-mica alkali feldspar granite—which collectively constitute the primary lithology of the Jiangjunshan pluton—were emplaced at∼272±3.5 and∼272±1.6 Ma,respectively.Geochemically,the gabbro exhibits pronounced light rare-earth element(LREE)depletion,low Nb/Yb(0.39–0.46)and Ti/V(23.7–25.3)ratios,and trace-element signatures akin to normal mid-ocean ridge basalts(N-MORB).However,its conspicuous Nb-Ta depletion parallels that of island arc basalts.Depleted Hf-Nd isotopic compositions(ε_(Hf)(t)=+0.60 to+4.63,ε_(Nd)(t)=+6.32 to+7.80)in the gabbro,coupled with negligible correlation betweenε_(Nd)(t)and SiO2 contents imply limited crustal assimilation during magma evolution.Petrological modeling,based on Sm/Yb and La concentrations,suggests the gabbroic melt derived from∼8%–20%spinel lherzolte mantle melting.Analogously depleted Hf-Nd isotopes(ε_(Hf)(t)=+6.81 to+9.10,ε_(Nd)(t)=+0.79 to+1.45)in the granite,together with petrographic evidence lacking mafic-ultramafic xenoliths,point to a juvenile lower-crustal source.Integrating the gabbro’s N-MORB-like affinity with arc-specific features,regional ultrahigh-temperature metamorphism in southern Chinese Altai,and Permian tectonics,we propose a ridge-subduction regime as the likely petrogenetic setting for the Jiangjunshan magmas.During ridge subduction,upwelling of asthenospheric mantle beneath the ridge induced partial melting of the lithospheric mantle,giving rise to the parental magma of the Jiangjunshan gabbro.This mafic magma underplating subsequently heated the juvenile lower crust,triggering its partial melting and generating the parental magma of the two-mica alkali feldspar granite.Our model indicates that ridge-subduction-related magmatism persisted in the Chinese Altai until the Middle Permian,followed by a tectonic shift from oceanic-continental subduction to intracontinental extension.

文摘Based on the basic data of drilling,logging,testing and geological experiments,the geological characteristics of the Permian Dalong Formation marine shales in the northern Sichuan Basin and the factors controlling shale gas enrichment and high yield are studied.The results are obtained in four aspects.First,the high-quality shale of the Dalong Formation was formed after the deposition of the Permian Wujiaping Formation,and it is developed in the Kaijiang-Liangping trough in the northern part of Sichuan Basin,where deep-water continental shelf facies and deep-water reduction environment with thriving siliceous organisms have formed the black siliceous shale rich in organic matter.Second,the Dalong Formation shale contains both organic and inorganic pores,with stratification of alternated brittle and plastic minerals.In addition to organic pores,a large number of inorganic pores are developed even in ultra-deep(deeper than 4500 m)layers,contributing a total porosity of more than 5%,which significantly expands the storage space for shale gas.Third,the limestone at the roof and floor of the Dalong Formation acted as seal rock in the early burial and hydrocarbon generation stage,providing favorable conditions for the continuous hydrocarbon generation and rich gas preservation in shale interval.In the later reservoir stimulation process,it was beneficial to the lateral extension of the fractures,so as to achieve the optimal stimulation performance and increase the well-controlled resources.Combining the geological,engineering and economic conditions,the favorable area with depth less than 5500 m is determined to be 1800 km2,with resources of 5400×10^(8) m^(3).Fourth,the shale reservoirs of the Dalong Formation are thin but rich in shale gas.The syncline zone far away from the main faults in the high and steep tectonic zone,eastern Sichuan Basin,with depth less than 5500 m,is the most favorable target for producing the Permian shale gas under the current engineering and technical conditions.It mainly includes the Nanya syncline,Tanmuchang syncline and Liangping syncline.

文摘The Xing'an-Inner Mongolia Orogen is a critical tectonic unit for constraining the evolution of the Paleo-Asian Ocean.However,the location and time of the closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean are still debated.Here,we select a representative basin in Dashizhai in northeastern China,using U-Pb zircon geochronology and geochemistry to analyze the sedimentary facies,depositional ages,and provenance.The results show that the ages of the Dashizhai Formation range from 400 to 347 Ma,the Shoushangou Formation range from 400 to 348 Ma,the Zhesi Formation range from 307 to 252 Ma,and the Linxi Formation range from 299 to 241 Ma.The Dashizhai Formation is composed of metamorphic andesite and clastic rocks.The Shoushangou Formation comprises siltstone,rhyolite,and argillaceous siltstone.The Zhesi and Linxi Formations are composed of mudstone and argillaceous siltstone.Geochemical data shows that these rocks are enriched in light rare earth elements and depleted in Eu with various La/Sc,Th/Sc,and La/Co ratios.The Permian Dashizhai Basin is from Permian volcanic and felsic igneous rocks from the Ergun,Xing'an,and Songliao blocks.The absence of the Late Carboniferous strata in the Dashizhai Basin indicates an extension setting during this period.Furthermore,we suggest the Xing'an-Inner Mongolia Orogen was an uplifting process associated with evolution the Paleo-Asian Ocean during the Late Permian.

文摘We report new SHRIMP zircon U-Pb ages,zircon Lu-Hf isotopic and whole rock geochemical data from Permian granitoids located in the Alxa area of Inner Mongolia,China.In combination with published geochronological and geochemical data,the granitoids in the region can be divided into two age groups:ca.285 Ma and ca.269 Ma.The granitoids of the first group are mainly composed of calc-alkaline to high-K calc-alkaline,weakly peraluminous Ⅰ-type granodiorites with ε_(Hf)(t)values of-19.6 to-4.3,which demonstrates evidence of crustal reworking;the granitoids of the second group,however,mainly consist of A-type granites that are high-K calc-alkaline to shoshonite,metaluminous to weakly peraluminous,and have high 10,000×Ga/Al ratios(2.59-3.12)and ε_(Hf)(t)values ranging from-11.3 to-2.7,all of which demonstrates a mixed crust-mantle source.We interpret the granitoids of the first group to have formed during the subduction of Central Asian oceanic crust and the second group to have formed by the asthenospheric upwelling caused by the formation of slab windows during late ocean ridge subduction.

文摘This paper discusses the characteristics and formation mechanism of thin dolomite reservoirs in the lower submember of the second member of the Permian Maokou Formation(lower Mao 2 Member)in the Wusheng-Tongnan area of the Sichuan Basin,SW China,through comprehensive analysis of geological,geophysical and geochemical data.The reservoir rocks of the lower Mao 2 Member are dominated by porphyritic vuggy dolomite and calcareous dolomite or dolomitic limestone,which have typical karst characteristics of early diagenetic stage.The dolomites at the edge of the karst system and in the fillings have dissolved estuaries,and the dolomite breccia has micrite envelope and rim cement at the edge,indicating that dolomitization is earlier than the early diagenetic karstification.The shoal facies laminated dolomite is primarily formed by the seepage reflux dolomitization of moderate-salinity seawater.The key factors of reservoir formation are the bioclastic shoal deposition superimposed with seepgae reflux dolomitization and the karstification of early diagenetic stage,which are locally reformed by fractures and hydrothermal processes.The development of dolomite vuggy reservoir is closely related to the upward-shallowing sequence,and mainly occurs in the late highstand of the fourth-order cycle.Moreover,the size of dolomite is closely related to formation thickness,and it is concentrated in the formation thickness conversion area,followed by the thinner area.According to the understanding of insufficient accommodation space in the geomorphic highland and the migration of granular shoal to geomorphic lowland in the late highstand of the third-order cycle,it is proposed that the large-scale shoal-controlled dolomite reservoirs are distributed along structural highs and slopes,and the reservoir-forming model with shoal,dolomitization and karstification jointly controlled by the microgeomorphy and sea-level fluctuation in the sedimentary period is established.On this basis,the paleogeomorphology in the lower Mao 2 Member is restored using well-seismic data,and the reservoir distribution is predicted.The prediction results have been verified by the latest results of exploration wells and tests,which provide an important reference for the prediction of thin dolomite reservoirs under similar geological setting.

文摘Shale gas is abundant in the Paleozoic of the Yangtze Platform,and several high-yield shale gas fields have been built in the Upper Yangtze Platform,China.The Permian of the South Yellow Sea Basin(SYSB)in the Lower Yangtze area is considered a potential target for shale gas exploration;however,the fundamental geological conditions of shale gas have not been studied.Based on the first whole-cored scientific drilling borehole(CSDP-2)in the SYSB,detailed tests involving petrology,organic geochemistry,and reservoir physical properties were conducted to evaluate the shale gas potential of the Lower Permian.The Lower Permian is dominated by organic-rich siliceous,clay,and clay-mixed shales.The average total organic carbon content is 5.99%,and the organic matter is mainly type Ⅱ_(1)−Ⅱ_(2),which has entered the high-over mature evolution stage.The pore types of organic-rich shales mainly include organic pores,dissolution pores,and intergranular pores,of which the meso-/macropores are well developed.The average porosity is 3.04%,and the total specific surface area and pore volume are 3.47 m^(2)/g and 7.21×10^(−3) cm^(3)/g,respectively.The average Langmuir volume obtained from the methane adsorption isotherms is 2.70 cm^(3)/g,and methane is mainly adsorbed in the meso-/macropores.The lower Permian shales are rich in methane as indicated by gas logging results,with an average content of 7.3%,which can reach up to 65.9%.A comparison of the study area with typical shale gas fields shows that the Lower Permian is brittle and shallowly buried and has a high potential for shale gas exploration and low-cost development.The depression areas of the SYSB are overlain by thick Mesozoic-Cenozoic sediments,show higher organic matter maturity,and may have greater shale gas potential.The shale gas exploration breakthrough of the study area is of great significance to ensure the energy supply of economically developed areas on the east China.

文摘Mesozoic-Palaeozoic marine carbonate rocks are crucial hydrocarbon reservoirs in the Central Uplift area of the South Yellow Sea Basin(SYSB).Due to the scarcity of boreholes and the significant heterogeneity of carbonate reservoirs,the distribution of porous carbonate reservoirs and their related key controlling factors remain unclear.In this study,factors affecting the distribution of porous Carboniferous-Early Permian carbonate reservoirs in the SYSB were investigated through seismic inversion and isotope analysis.The log-seismic characteristics of porous carbonate reservoirs,sensitive lithology parameters,and physical property parameters were extracted and analyzed.The pre-stack simultaneous inversion technique was applied to predict the lithology and physical properties of porous carbonate reservoirs.Moreover,the sedimentary of carbonate was analyzed using isotopes of carbon,oxygen,and strontium.The results show that porous carbonate reservoirs are mainly developed in the open platform sediments with porosities of 3%-5%and are mainly distributed in the paleo-highland(Huanglong Formation and Chuanshan Formation)and the slope of paleo-highland(Hezhou Formation).The porous carbonate reservoirs of the Qixia Formation are only locally developed.In addition,the negativeδ13C excursions indicate a warm and humid tropical climate with three sea-level fluctuations in the study area from the Carboniferous to Early Permian.The favorable conditions for developing porous carbonate rocks include the sedimentary environment and diagenetic process.The primary pore tends to form in high-energy environments of the paleo-highland,and the secondary pore is increased by dissolution during the syngenetic or quasi-syngenetic period.According to the hydrocarbon potential analysis,the Late Ordovician Wufeng Formation and Lower Silurian Gaojiabian Formation are the source rocks in the high-maturity-over-maturity stage,the Carboniferous-Lower Permian carbonate is the good reservoirs,and the Late Permian Longtan-Dalong Formation is the stable seal,ensuring a huge hydrocarbon accumulation potential in SYSB.The methods proposed in this study can be applied to other carbonate-dominated strata worldwide.
