文摘Sichuan sausages with moisture contents of 40%,45%,50%,and 60% were stored at-18℃for durations of 0,2,4,6,and 8 weeks to evaluate the effect of moisture content on the quality attributes of Sichuan sausages during frozen storage.Product indicators including pH,colour,thiobarbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS),total volatile basic nitrogen(TVB-N),texture,electronic nose(E-nose)response,and water-holding capacity(thawing and cooking losses)were determined.The results indicated that as storage time increased,water retention in Sichuan sausages with different moisture contents decreased,while the degree of protein and lipid oxidation increased.This led to an increase in pH value,a colour shift from red-bright to grey-brown,and a deterioration in palatability.Among the samples,sausages with 50% moisture content exhibited the lowest thawing and cooking losses,indicating superior water-holding capacity.After 8 weeks of storage,TBARS and TVB-N values for the 50% moisture group were 19.5%and 2.5%lower,respectively,than those of the 40%and 45%moisture groups,indicating a reduced degree of oxidation.Furthermore,Sichuan sausage with 50%moisture content demonstrated an appropriate pH and colour difference,along with excellent texture and flavour,as evidenced by its higher toughness and satisfactory hardness.In conclusion,Sichuan sausage with 50% moisture content demonstrated the highest overall quality under frozen storage conditions.

文摘The Western Sichuan Foreland Basin(WSFB)in South China,a prolific hydrocarbon province,exhibits complex structural deformation influenced by Triassic salt tectonics.This paper integrates seismic data and well data to elucidate the role of Middle-Lower Triassic evaporite layers in shaping basin structures,focusing on Xinchang Tectonic Zone(XTZ).Salt layers facilitated decoupled deformation between supra-and sub-salt sequences,forming salt pillows and fault-related folds.Three distinct structural trends were identified in XTZ.Key findings reveal that salt thickness variations correlate with deformation styles:thicker salt promoted detachment folding,while thinner salt led to hard-linked fault systems.Sub-salt E-NE trending reverse faults formed horsetail terminations associated with the Pengzhou faults(PzF),deviating from the primary Longmenshan thrust belt(LmsTB)orientation.Structural evolution occurred in three stages:(1)Indosinian salt deposition and foreland basin initiation;(2)Yanshanian eastward propagation of thrust systems with salt-driven detachment folding;(3)Himalayan reactivation overprinting earlier structures with sub-NS trending folds.This work establishes a direct link between salt layers and structural traps,demonstrating how salt acted as a critical detachment layer during multi-stage compression.Results provide insights into the gas exploration of the Late Triassic Xujiahe Formation,emphasizing the importance of salt-influenced deformation in foreland basin systems.

文摘To clarify the thermal evolution characteristics of organic matter in the ZizhongWeiyuan area in Sichuan Basin,solid bitumen reflectance of the Lower Cambrian Qiongzhusi Formation(QFm)shale was measured by Raman Spectroscopy(RS)method.Constrained by vitrinite reflectance(Ro)data,burial and thermal evolution histories of QFm shale were reconstructed through basin numerical simulation technology.The evolution model of and critical period of organic matter was determined,and its dominant drivers were analyzed.The results show that the asphalt Raman vitrinite reflectance(_(Rmc)Ro)ranges from 3.21%to 4.15%.Thermal maturity within the trough follows a southern part>central part>northern part trend.Thermal maturity is moderate within the paleo-uplift,whereas organic matter outside the paleo-uplift has undergone graphitization.Two types of thermal evolution imprints were established:a continuous heating type and a stop heating type of Silurian–Permian.Sedimentary burial,paleogeomorphology,tectonic movement and Emeishan mantle plume are the dominant drivers of multi-stage thermal imprints of the QFm shale.The three factors are coupled with each other.The Late Caledonian and Late Indosinian are the key periods of organic matter thermal evolution.The Leshan-Longnüsi paleo-uplift weakens the thermal effect of the Permian Emeishan mantle plume.The current thermal evolution pattern of the QFm is mainly determined by the continuous subsidence of the Triassic–Cretaceous.Stop heating model of Silurian–Permian locks the maturity of organic matter in the gold window,thus controlling the enrichment of QFm shale gas.It provides new insights for shale gas migration,enrichment and effective exploration and development of shale gas in the Lower Paleozoic QFm.

文摘The Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation derives its name from the Upper Ordovician Wufeng Formation and the Lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation,found in sequence in the Sichuan Basin.This formation hosts rich shale gas reservoirs,and its shale gas enrichment patterns are examined in this study using data from 1197 shale samples collected from 14 wells.Five basic and three key parameters,eight in all,are assessed for each sample.The five basic parameters include burial depth and the contents of four mineral types—quartz,clay,carbonate,and other minerals;the three key parameters,representing shale gas enrichment,are total organic carbon(TOC)content,porosity,and gas content.The SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)analysis originated in game theory is used here in an interpretable machine learning framework,to address issues of heterogeneous data structure,noisy relationships,and multi-objective optimization.An evaluation of the ranking,contribution values,and conditions of changes for these parameters offers new quantitative insights into shale gas enrichment patterns.A quantitative analysis of the relationship between data-sets identifies the primary factors controlling TOC,porosity,and gas content of shale gas reservoirs.The results show that TOC and porosity jointly influence gas content;mineral content has a significant impact on both,TOC and porosity;and the burial depth governs porosity which,in turn,affects the conditions under which shale gas is preserved.Input parameter thresholds are also determined and provide a basis for the establishment of quantitative criteria to evaluate shale gas enrichment.The predictive accuracy of the model used in this study is significantly improved by the step-wise addition of two input parameters,namely TOC and porosity,separately and together.Thus,the game theory method in big data-driven analysis uses a combination of TOC and porosity to evaluate the gas content with encouraging results—suggesting that these are the key parameters that indicate source rock and reservoir properties.

文摘In the Southern Sichuan Basin,China(SSBC),some moderate-sized seismic events(local magnitude M_(L)ranging between 4 and 5)have affected the safe production of shale gas.In this study,we used the recorded seismic data from China national and temporary networks within the SSBC to obtain the relocated seismic hypocenter distribution between January 2016 and May 2017 based on the hypocenter double-difference(HypoDD)method.The statistical characteristics of microseismicity resulting from water injection in SSBC were analyzed,and the potential correlation between the event rate and statistical parameters,such as Gutenberg-Richter b-value,spatial correlation length,and fractal dimension,was quantified.Based on spatial variations of b-value and fractal dimension of event distribution,we identified two potential risk areas in the East and West of the Zhaotong shale gas block(YS108),respectively.The focal mechanism solutions(FMSs)of the observed seismic events(M_(L)>2.5)near the H7 well pad were calculated utilizing the generalized cut-and-paste(gCAP)technique combined with P-wave polarity.The FMSs’results show reverse faults,and some of them have fault planes oriented in the N-S direction,causing oblique slip movement.In addition,we also inverted the regional stress field using high-quality FMSs,revealing that the maximum principal stress(σ1)trends NW–SE and lies nearly horizontal,in agreement with the World Stress Map and borehole breakout records.Considering geological structures and regional stress distribution,the reasons for induced seismicity were mainly linked to pore pressure diffusion.Our obtained findings may provide insights for future seismic risk assessment and mitigation strategies.

文摘Deep shale gas reservoirs in the southern Sichuan Basin are typically characterized by significant horizontal stress anisotropy(expressed as stress difference),variable brittleness-ductility in rock mechanics,and strong heterogeneity.These complex geomechanical conditions lead to pronounced differences in hydraulic fracturing outcomes among wells and sections.To investigate hydraulic fracture propagation and fracturing fluid injection behavior under varying geomechanical settings,true triaxial physical simulation tests were performed on 400×400×400 mm artificial rock samples.The samples were designed with different media properties based on similarity criteria.A sensitivity analysis was conducted to assess the effects of brittleness-ductility characteristics,natural fractures,and in-situ stress conditions.The results reveal that:(i)brittle samples with lower stress difference are favorable for forming complex,perforable fracture networks;(ii)brittle samples with higher stress difference tend to develop simple,planar hydraulic fractures,with natural fractures only slightly activated during very short injection periods;(iii)ductile behavior enhances the activation of natural fractures but reduces fracture complexity compared with brittle samples,even under lower stress difference;and(iv)for typical deep shale formations,larger fluid injection volumes combined with high-density,multi-cluster fracturing techniques are recommended.

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 faults and associated fracture zones in the tight sandstone reservoirs of the fifth member of the Triassic Xujiahe Formation(Xu-5 Member)in the Wubaochang area,northeastern Sichuan Basin,play a critical role in controlling gas well productivity.To delineate the distribution patterns of the faults and associated fracture zones in this area,a transfer-trained convolutional neural network(CNN)model and an XGBoost(eXtreme Gradient Boosting)-based intelligent seismic attribute fusion method were employed to identify faults and fracture zones,respectively,enabling precise characterization of their spatial distribution.The faults in the Wubaochang area are classified into first-to fourth-order structures,with the average fracture zone width on the hanging wall exceeding that of the footwall,demonstrating a strong positive correlation between fracture zone width and fault displacement.The study area is divided into three distinct deformation regions(southern,central and northern regions)featuring five fault structural styles(duplex,duplex-backthrust,imbricate thrust,synclinorium imbricate-backthrust,and anticlinorium imbricate-backthrust)and four corresponding fracture zone development patterns(duplex,duplex-backthrust,synclinorium imbricate-backthrust,and anticlinorium imbricate-backthrust).Based on the controlling effects of faults on gas enrichment,the dual-source hydrocarbon-supply zones are interpreted to be distributed in the northern and central regions,while the southern region is identified as gas-escape zones.By integrating the distribution of favorable reservoir development areas and fracture zones,two classes of gas enrichment zones(Class Ⅰ and Ⅱ)are delineated.Class Ⅰ zones are primarily distributed in the northern region and the transitional zone from the southern to central regions,whereas Class Ⅱ zones are concentrated in the central region.Class Ⅰ zones exhibit dual-source hydrocarbon-supply conditions,larger-scale fracture zone development,and higher favorability compared to Class Ⅱ zones.According to the defined gas accumulation effectiveness in different types of fracture zones,a high-productivity gas well model for the Wubaochang area is proposed,emphasizing“dual-source faults controlling enrichment,effective fracture zones controlling high production,and high matrix porosity ensuring sustained production”.Targeted drilling directions for different favorable zones are further optimized based on this model.

文摘The occurrence types and controlling factors of organic matter in the sepiolite-containing successions of the first member of Mid-Permian Maokou Formation(Mao-1 Member for short)in the Eastern Sichuan Basin,SW China,have been investigated through outcrop section measurement,core observation,thin section identification,argon ion polishing-field scanning electron microscopy,energy spectrum analysis,X-ray diffraction,total organic carbon content(TOC),major and trace element analysis.Finally,the symbiotic adsorption model of sepiolite for organic matter enrichment has been established.The results show that the sepiolite-containing successions of the Mao-1 Member are composed of the rhythmite of mudstone,argillaceous limestone and limestone,with five depositional intervals vertically and the organic matter mostly developed in the mudstone and argillaceous limestone layers within the lower three intervals.The organic matter occurrence types are mostly layered or nodular in macro to meso-scale,blocky-vein-like under a microscope,but scattered,interstitial or adsorbed at a mesoscopic scale.It underwent transition processes from lower to higher salinity,from oxygen-poor and anoxic reduction to oxygen-poor and localized oxygen enrichment on the palaeo-environment of the Mao-1 Member.The first two intervals of the early depositional phase of Mao-1 Member constitute the cyclothems of mudstone,argillaceous limestone and limestone and quantities of fibrous-feathered sepiolite settle down within the Tongjiang-Changshou sag with continuous patchy organic matter from adsorption of alginate by sepiolite in intercrystalline,bedding surfaces and interlayer pores.The third and fourth intervals in the mid-depositional phase are mostly composed of the mudstone and argillaceous limestone alternations with the continuous patchy or banded organic matter in the surface and inter-crystalline pores of fibrous,feathered and flaky sepiolite.And the fifth interval in the late depositional phase of the Mao-1 Member comprises the cyclothems of extremely thin layered argillaceous limestone and thick-layered limestone with the fibrous sepiolite depositing in the argillaceous limestone and irregular organic matter dispersing around the sepiolite.Therefore,the symbiotic adsorption between organic matter and sepiolite effectively enhances the preservation efficiency of organic matter and improves the source rock quality of the Mao-1 Member,which enhances our understanding on the enrichment model of the depositional organic matter.

文摘The basic geological characteristics of the Qiongzhusi Formation reservoirs and conditions for shale gas enrichment and high-yield were studied by using methods such as mineral scanning,organic and inorganic geochemistry,breakthrough pressure,and triaxial mechanics testing based on the core,logging,seismic and production data.(1)Both types of silty shale,rich in organic matter in deep water and low in organic matter in shallow water,have good gas bearing properties.(2)The brittle mineral composition of shale is characterized by comparable feldspar and quartz content.(3)The pores are mainly inorganic pores with a small amount of organic pores.Pore development primarily hinges on a synergy between felsic minerals and total organic carbon content(TOC).(4)Dominated by Type I organic matters,the hydrocarbon generating organisms are algae and acritarch,with high maturity and high hydrocarbon generation potential.(5)Deep-and shallow-water shale gas exhibit in-situ and mixed gas generation characteristics,respectively.(6)The basic law of shale gas enrichment in the Qiongzhusi Formation was proposed as“TOC controlled accumulation and inorganic pore controlled enrichment”,which includes the in-situ enrichment model of“three highs and one over”(high TOC,high felsic mineral content,high inorganic pore content,overpressured formation)for organic rich shale represented by Well ZY2,and the in-situ+carrier-bed enrichment model of“two highs,one medium and one low”(high felsic content,high formation pressure,medium inorganic pore content,low TOC)for organic-poor shale gas represented by Well JS103.It is a new type of shale gas that is different from the Longmaxi Formation,enriching the formation mechanism of deep and ultra-deep shale gas.The deployment of multiple exploration wells has achieved significant breakthroughs in shale gas exploration.

文摘Benthic bivalves,the most widely distributed mollusks since the Mesozoic era,often inhabited environments where their fossilized remains are found adjacent to or intermingled with organic-rich shale.Recent Jurassic shale oil exploration in the Sichuan Basin has revealed that bioclastic layers,composed of abundant fossil bivalves and closely associated with shales and,exhibit significant hydrocarbon potentials.However,the microscopic structures of these bivalve fossils and their role in hydrocarbon storage and migration remain poorly understood.In this study,we characterized the microporosity of bivalve shells within the Middle-Lower Jurassic bioclastic shale in the northeastern Sichuan Basin using a combination of 2D imaging(thin section,SEM),3D reconstruction(FIB-SEM),and permeability simulation.The micropores within the shell fossils range from 100 to 1000 nm in radius and are uniformly distributed in a grid-like pattern within the shell interior,where they host liquid hydrocarbons.The bioclastic carbonate layers exhibit an overall porosity of approximately 0.8%.Comparative analysis with extant bivalve shells suggests that these micropores represent residual pores from the nacreous brick wall structure.Due to the regular orientation of the shells and their microporous nacres,permeability coefficients along the long bivalve fossil axes are three to five times higher than those along the short axes.These residual micropores within the bioclastic fossil shells have a positive influence on both the storage and migration of shale oil and gas,making bioclastic fossil-bearing shalespromising sweet spots for shale oil and gas exploration in similar sedimentary environments.

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The black shales of Wufeng and Longmaxi Formation(Late Ordovician-Early Silurian period)in Sichuan Basin are the main strata for marine shale gas exploration,which have a yearly shale gas production of 228×10^(8)m^(3)and cumulative shale gas production of 919×10^(8)m^(3).According to the lithological and biological features,filling sequences,sedimentary structures and lab analysis,the authors divided the Wufeng/Guanyinqiao and Longmaxi Formations into shore,tidal flat,shoal,shallow water shelf and deep water shelf facies,and confirmed that a shallow water deposition between the two sets of shales.Although both Formations contain similar shales,their formation mechanisms differ.During the deposition of Wufeng shale,influenced by the Caledonian Movement,the Central Sichuan and Guizhou Uplifts led to the transformation of the Sichuan Basin into a back-bulge basin.Coinstantaneous volcanic activity provided significant nutrients,contributing to the deposition of Wufeng Formation black shales.In contrast,during the deposition of Longmaxi shale,collisions caused basement subsidence,melting glaciers raised sea levels,and renewed volcanic activity provided additional nutrients,leading to Longmaxi Formation black shale accumulation.Considering the basic sedimentary geology and shale gas characteristics,areas such as Suijiang-Leibo-Daguan,Luzhou-Zigong,Weirong-Yongchuan,and Nanchuan-Dingshan are identified as key prospects for future shale gas exploration in the Wufeng-Longmaxi Formations.

文摘The Yellow River Basin in Sichuan Province(YRS)is undergoing severe soil erosion and exacerbated ecological vulnerability,which collectively pose formidable challenges for regional water conservation(WC)and sustainable development.While effectively enhancing WC necessitates a comprehensive understanding of its driving factors and corresponding intervention strategies,existing studies have largely neglected the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of both natural and socio-economic drivers.Therefore,this study explored the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of WC drivers in YRS using multi-scale geographically weighted regression(MGWR)and geographically and temporally weighted regression(GTWR)models from an eco-hydrological perspective.We discovered that downstream regions,which are more developed,achieved significantly better WC than upstream regions.The results also demonstrated that the influence of temperature and wind speed is consistently dominant and temporally stable due to climate stability,while the influence of vegetation shifted from negative to positive around 2010,likely indicating greater benefits from understory vegetation.Economic growth positively impacted WC in upstream regions but had a negative effect in the more developed downstream regions.These findings highlight the importance of targeted water conservation strategies,including locally appropriate revegetation,optimization of agricultural and economic structures,and the establishment of eco-compensation mechanisms for ecological conservation and sustainable development.

文摘Taking the second member of the Xujiahe Formation of the Upper Triassic in the Xinchang structural belt as an example,based on data such as logging,production,seismic interpretation and test,a systematic analysis was conducted on the structural characteristics and evolution,reservoir diagenesis and densification processes,and types and stages of faults/fractures,and revealing the multi-stage and multi-factor dynamic coupled enrichment mechanisms of tight gas reservoirs.(1)In the early Yanshan period,the paleo-structural traps were formed with low-medium maturity hydrocarbons accumulating in structural highs driven by buoyancy since reservoirs were not fully densified in this stage,demonstrating paleo-structure control on traps and early hydrocarbon accumulation.(2)In the middle-late Yanshan period,the source rocks became mature to generate and expel a large quantity of hydrocarbons.Grain size and type of sandstone controlled the time of reservoir densification,which restricted the scale of hydrocarbon charging,allowing for only a small-scale migration through sand bodies near the fault/fracture or less-densified matrix reservoirs.(3)During the Himalayan period,the source rocks reached overmaturity,and the residual oil cracking gas was efficiently transported along the late-stage faults/fractures.Wells with high production capacity were mainly located in Type I and II fault/fracture zones comprising the late-stage north-south trending fourth-order faults and the late-stage fractures.The productivity of the wells was controlled by the transformation of the late-stage faults/fractures.(4)The Xinchang structural belt underwent three stages of tectonic evolution,two stages of reservoir formation,and three stages of fault/fractures development.Hydrocarbons mainly accumulated in the paleo-structure highs.After reservoir densification and late fault/fracture adjustment,a complex gas-water distribution pattern was formed.Thus,it is summarized as the model of“near-source and low-abundance hydrocarbon charging in the early stage,and differential enrichment of natural gas under the joint control of fault-fold-fracture complex,high-quality reservoirs and structural highs in the late stage”.Faults/fractures with well-coupled fault-fold-fracture-pore are favorable exploration targets with high exploration effectiveness.
