The marine source rocks are mainly Paleozoic and Mesozoic onshore whereas Tertiary offshore. Three genetic categories of oil-gas reservoirs have been defined for the marine reservoirs in China: primary reservoirs, secondary reservoirs and hydrocarbon-regeneration reservoirs. And three exploration prospects have also been suggested: (1) Primary reservoirs prospects, which are chiefly distributed in many Tertiary basins of the South China Sea (SCS), the Tertiary shelf basins of the East China Sea (ECS) and the Paleozoic of Tarim basin, Sichuan basin and Ordos basin. To explore large-middle-scale even giant oil-gas fields should chiefly be considered in this category reservoirs. These basins are the most hopeful areas to explore marine oil-gas fields in China, among which especially many Tertiary basins of the SCS should be strengthened to explore. (2) Secondary reservoirs prospects, which are mainly distributed in the Paleozoic and Mesozoic of the Tarim basin, Sichuan basin, Qiangtang basin and Chuxiong basin in western China, of which exploration potential is less than that of the primary reservoirs. (3) Hydrocarbon-regeneration reservoirs prospects, which are chiefly distributed in the Bohai Bay basin, North Jiangsu-South Yellow Sea basin, southern North China basin, Jianghan basin, South Poyang basin in eastern China and the Tarim basin in western China, of which source rocks are generally the Paleozoic. And the reservoirs formed by late-stage (always Cenozoic) secondary hydrocarbon generation of the Paleozoic source rocks should mainly be considered to explore, among which middle-small and small oil-gas fields are the chief exploration targets. As a result of higher thermal evolution of Paleozoic and Mesozoic source rocks, the marine reservoirs onshore are mainly gas fields, and so far marine oil fields have only been found in the Tarim basin. No other than establishing corresponding marine oil-gas exploration and development strategy and policy, sufficiently enhancing cognition to the particularity and complexity of China's marine petroleum geology, and applying new thoughts, new theories and new technologies, at the same time tackling some key technologies, it is possible to fast and effectually exploit and utilize the potential huge marine oil-gas resources of China.展开更多

文摘Organic electrochemical transistor(OECT)devices demonstrate great promising potential for reservoir computing(RC)systems,but their lack of tunable dynamic characteristics limits their application in multi-temporal scale tasks.In this study,we report an OECT-based neuromorphic device with tunable relaxation time(τ)by introducing an additional vertical back-gate electrode into a planar structure.The dual-gate design enablesτreconfiguration from 93 to 541 ms.The tunable relaxation behaviors can be attributed to the combined effects of planar-gate induced electrochemical doping and back-gateinduced electrostatic coupling,as verified by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis.Furthermore,we used theτ-tunable OECT devices as physical reservoirs in the RC system for intelligent driving trajectory prediction,achieving a significant improvement in prediction accuracy from below 69%to 99%.The results demonstrate that theτ-tunable OECT shows a promising candidate for multi-temporal scale neuromorphic computing applications.

文摘Understanding water chemistry in karst regions is crucial for improving global water resource management and deepening our knowledge of the biogeochemical cycles shaping these sensitive environments.Despite advance-ments in karst hydrology,significant gaps remain in long-term trends,underlying processes,and quantitative effects of environmental changes.This is especially true in areas like the Wujiang River(WJ)in China,where human activities such as reservoir construction and land use/cover changes have accelerated hydrochemical changes.We combined recent and historical monitoring data to provide a detailed analysis of the spatial and temporal characteristics,evolution,and controlling factors of major ions in WJ.These findings are important for local water management and contribute to global efforts to manage similar karst systems facing human-induced pressures.Our research shows clear seasonal differences in solute concentrations,with higher levels during the dry season.WJ’s water is rich in calcium,with Ca-HCO_(3) ion pairs being the most common.Reservoir monitor-ing stations show much higher levels of NO_(3)^(−)and SO_(4)^(2−)compared to river-type stations,likely due to longer hydraulic retention time and increased acid deposition.The study confirms the significant role of pH and water temperature in rock weathering processes.Land use/cover changes were identified as the primary drivers of solute variations(46.37%),followed by lithology(13.92%)and temperature(8.35%).Over the past two decades,in-tense carbonate weathering has been observed,especially during wet seasons.Among karstic provinces,Guizhou Province stands out with the highest ion concentrations,indicative of its extensive karst coverage and heightened weathering processes.

文摘Neuromorphic devices have garnered significant attention as potential building blocks for energy-efficient hardware systems owing to their capacity to emulate the computational efficiency of the brain.In this regard,reservoir computing(RC)framework,which leverages straightforward training methods and efficient temporal signal processing,has emerged as a promising scheme.While various physical reservoir devices,including ferroelectric,optoelectronic,and memristor-based systems,have been demonstrated,many still face challenges related to compatibility with mainstream complementary metal oxide semiconductor(CMOS)integration processes.This study introduced a silicon-based schottky barrier metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor(SB-MOSFET),which was fabricated under low thermal budget and compatible with back-end-of-line(BEOL).The device demonstrated short-term memory characteristics,facilitated by the modulation of schottky barriers and charge trapping.Utilizing these characteristics,a RC system for temporal data processing was constructed,and its performance was validated in a 5×4 digital classification task,achieving an accuracy exceeding 98%after 50 training epochs.Furthermore,the system successfully processed temporal signal in waveform classification and prediction tasks using time-division multiplexing.Overall,the SB-MOSFET's high compatibility with CMOS technology provides substantial advantages for large-scale integration,enabling the development of energy-efficient reservoir computing hardware.

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Sedimentation in reservoirs is a significant challenge that affects water storage capacity and operational efficiency.This study establishes a baseline sedimentation status for Mwimba Reservoir in Kasungu,Malawi,five years after its commissioning in 2017,using an integrated bathymetric survey and Geographic Information System(GIS)analysis.A bathymetric survey conducted in March 2022 collected depth measurements at 507 points along 23 transects,which were used to construct a Triangulated Irregular Network(TIN)model in ArcGIS for accurate volume calculations.Sediment concentration was determined from seven water samples using the filtration method.The original design volume of 89,200 m^(3)was compared to the current volume of 72,966 m^(3),indicating an 18.2% loss in capacity over the five-year period.Statistical analysis using a one-sample T-test confirmed that this reduction is significant(p=0.013).The annual sedimentation rate was estimated at 1.25 tonnes per year,and the reservoir’s projected operational life is 27.5 years if no intervention is undertaken.Despite a relatively low sedimentation rate compared to other regional reservoirs,targeted sediment management and further catchment analysis are essential.This study provides critical baseline data for future sediment monitoring,management,and conservation planning for Mwimba Reservoir and similar small water bodies in Sub-Saharan Africa.

文摘Reservoir evaluation is important in identifying oil and gas sweet spots in sedimentary basins.This also holds true in the Tarim Basin,where the ultra-deep oil and gas-bearing formations have high present-day in situ stress and geothermal temperature in addition to their considerable depth as a result of multiple stages of tectonic evolution.Traditional reservoir evaluation methods are based mainly on analyses of reservoir parameters like porosity,permeability,and pore throat structure;these parameters can sometimes vary dramatically in areas with complex Structures.Geomechanics-based reservoir evaluations are favored as they adequately capture the impact of tectonic processes on reservoirs,especially those in the Tarim Basin.This study evaluates the ultra-deep clastic reservoirs in the Kuqa Depression of the Tarim Basin by integrating the geomechanical parameters including elastic modulus,natural fracture density,and present-day in situ stress into a 3D geological modeling-based reservoir evaluation.The entropy weight method is introduced to establish a comprehensive index(Q)for reservoir evaluation.The results show that the positive correlation of the daily gas production rate of representative wells in the study area with this indicator is an effective way of reservoir evaluation in ultra-deep areas with complex structures.

文摘Opening-mode fractures play a crucial role in shale reservoirs,as they serve as flow channels and provide storage space for hydrocarbons.The shale reservoirs in the Permian Lucaogou Formation of the Junggar Basin,NW China,record multi-stage tectonic and diagenetic processes that created multi-stage natural fractures,thereby contributing to the oil content differentiation within the formation.Effective identification and characterization of natural fractures is vital for the efficient recovery of shale oil in the Jimsar Sag.We combine outcrop observations,drill core analyses,thin section examinations,and well log analyses to determine the characteristics of fractures in the shale reservoirs and their modes of development.We also establish multi-parameter evaluation index criteria and an evaluation system for fractures using statistical analyses.The shale reservoirs of the Lucaogou Formation in the Jimsar Sag host three main types of fracture:tectonic fractures,diagenetic fractures,and overpressure fractures.Conventional well logging,imaging logging,and core observations demonstrate that the fractured shale reservoir section has gamma-ray counts(GR)of>75 API,shallow laterolog resistivities of<80Ω·m,neutron densities of<2.40 g/cm3,neutron porosities of>27%,and interval transit times of>23.77μs/m,fracture density exceeding 3 fractures/m,and average porosity ranging from 0.2%to 0.3%in the lower sweet spots.The lower sweet spot(P2l12)of the Lucaogou Formation exhibits the highest degree of fracture development.Our detailed characterization reveals high fracture permeabilities and porosities in the upper and lower sweet spots(P2l22 and P2l12),with higher values in the latter.In addition,we present a novel rose diagram method to represent various fracture parameters.The best-developed tectonic fractures in the Lucaogou Formation strike ENE-WSW,have an average linear density of 1.65 fractures/m,an average aperture of 0.25 mm,an average length of 8.7 cm,and the highest proportion of unfilled fractures.Our study shows that a combination of field observations,drill core analyses,microscopic observations,and well logging provides a solid foundation for investigating the mechanisms of fracture formation in shale reservoirs.

文摘Based on drilling,mud logging,core,seismic and imaging logging data,this paper studies the identification and evolution process of negative inversion structures in the Carboniferous buried hills in the No.1 and No.2 fault zones of Weixinan Sag,Beibu Gulf Basin,China,and reveals the controls of these structures on high-quality reservoirs.The No.2 fault zone develops significant negative inversion structures in the Carboniferous buried hills,as a result of multi-stage transformations of compressive-tensile stress fields in the period from the Late Hercynian to the Himalayan.The Hercynian carbonates laid the material basis for the formation of high-quality reservoirs.The negative inversion structures mainly control the development of high-quality reservoirs in buried hills through:(1)creating large-scale fractures to increase reservoir space and improve oil-gas flow pathways;(2)regulating stratigraphic differential denudation to highlight dominant lithology for later reservoir transformation;(3)shaping the paleogeomorphological highlands to provide favorable conditions for superficial karstification.The negative inversion structures form a high-quality,composite reservoir space with the synergistic existence of superficial dissolution fractures/cavities and burial-enhanced karst systems through the coupling of fracture network creation,formation denudation screening and multi-stage karst transformation.The research results have guided the breakthrough of the first exploratory well with a daily oil production over 1000 m^(3)in carbonate buried-hill reservoir in the Beibu Gulf Basin,and provide referential geological basis for finding more reserves and achieving higher production in the Carboniferous buried hills in the Weixinan Sag.

文摘Recent exploration has highlighted the critical role of strike-slip faults in shaping ultra-deep carbonate reservoirs in the Tarim Basin.This study integrates satellite imagery,UAV photogrammetry,outcrop surveys and microscopic analysis to investigate the architecture of these faults and their impact on reservoir petrophysical properties.The strike-slip faults exhibit cores consisting of calcite bands,fault breccias and fractures,while the damage zones are predominantly fractured.Thicker fault cores and fault zones are associated with more extensive reservoir development.Individual strike-slip fault zones are primarily characterized by two sets of fractures intersecting the fault at small angles.When two fault systems interact,the dominant pattern is two sets of fractures intersecting the main fault at small angles and one set at larger angles,facilitating the formation of large-scale reservoirs.We propose a model for the fault core,which primarily consists of a calcite band and fault breccias.These breccias are composed of original host rock,calcite cement and quartz,which exhibit poor physical properties,while fractures and vugs show favorable reservoir characteristics.This model offers valuable insights into the development of fault-controlled reservoirs,particularly in the Tarim Basin.

文摘Oilfields worldwide are increasingly grappling with challenges such as early water breakthrough and high water production,yet direct,targeted solutions remain elusive.In recent years,chemical flooding techniques designed for tertiary oil recovery have garnered significant attention,with microgel flooding emerging as a particularly prominent area of research.Despite its promise,the complex mechanisms underlying microgel flooding have been rarely investigated numerically.This study aims to address these gaps by characterizing the distribution of microgel concentration and viscosity within different pore structures.To enhance the accuracy of these characterizations,the viscosity of microgels is adjusted to account for the shear effects induced by flow rate and the swelling effects driven by salinity variations.The absolute permeability of the rock and the relative permeability of both oil and microgel are also analyzed to elucidate the mechanisms of microgel flooding.Additionally,a connectivity model is employed to achieve a quantitative representation of fluid flow capacity.The proposed model is validated through conceptual examples and applied to real oilfield blocks,demonstrating its accuracy and practical applicability.

文摘The origin of tight reservoirs in the Yanchang Formation of the Ordos Basin and their relationship with hydrocarbon charging remain unclear.Based on petrological observations,physical property analysis,fluid inclusion system analysis and in situ U-Pb dating,the sequence of tight sandstone reservoir densification and oil charging was determined.Through petrological observations,fluid inclusion analysis and physical property analysis,it is concluded that compaction and cementation are the primary causes of reservoir densification.When the content of calcite cement is less than or equal to 7%,compaction dominates densification;otherwise,cementation becomes more significant.However,determining the exact timing of compaction densification proved challenging.Microscopic observations revealed that oil charging likely occurred either before or during the densification of the reservoir.According to in situ U-Pb dating and the porosity evolution curve,cementation densification occurred between 167.0±20.0 Ma and 151.8 Ma.Temperature measurements of the aqueous inclusions indicate that oil charging occurred between 125.0 and 96.0 Ma,suggesting that densification preceded oil charging.This study provides valuable insights for the future exploration of tight oil reservoirs in the Ordos Basin.

文摘Hydraulic fracturing is a key technology for the efficient development of deep oil and gas reservoirs.However,fracture propagation behavior is influenced by rock elastoplasticity and thermal stress,making it difficult for traditional linear elastic models to accurately describe its dynamic response.To address this,this study employs the Continuum-Discontinuum Element Method(CDEM),incorporating an elastoplastic constitutive model,thermo-hydro-mechanical(THM)coupling effects,and cohesive zone characteristics at the fracture tip to establish a numerical model for hydraulic fracture propagation in deep elastoplastic reservoirs.A systematic investigation was conducted into the effects of fluid viscosity,reservoir temperature,injection rate,elastic modulus,and horizontal stress difference on fracture propagation.The findings show that a larger horizontal stress differential results in a more rectangular fracture geometry,a shorter fracture length,and a wider fracture.An increase in elastic modulus has a negligible impact on fracture length but reduces fracture width,resulting in a rounded rectangular morphology.Elevated reservoir temperature induces thermal tensile stress around the fracture,mitigating in-situ stress effects and reducing both breakdown and propagation pressures.Higher injection rates and fluid viscosity increase fracture initiation difficulty,promoting shorter but wider fractures with enhanced height growth beyond interlayer barriers.Additionally,horizontal stress significantly affects near-fracture plastic deformation:when the stress difference increases from 10 to 25 MPa,the maximum cumulative plastic strain in the surrounding rock rises by 66.67%.By integrating elastoplasticity and thermal stress effects,this study overcomes the limitations of conventional hydraulic fracturing simulations,offering novel insights for optimizing extraction strategies in deep unconventional reservoirs.

文摘The 10000-m ultradeep dolomite reservoir holds significant potential as a successor field for future oil and gas exploration in China's marine craton basin.However,major challenges such as the genesis of dolomite,the formation time of high-quality reservoirs,and the preservation mechanism of reservoirs have always limited exploration decision-making.This research systematically elaborates on the genesis and reservoir-forming mechanisms of Sinian-Cambrian dolomite,discussing the ancient marine environment where microorganisms and dolomite develop,which controls the formation of large-scale Precambrian-Cambrian dolomite.The periodic changes inMg isotopes and sedimentary cycles show that the thick-layered dolomite is the result of different dolomitization processes superimposed on a spatiotemporal scale.Lattice defects and dolomite embryos can promote dolomitization.By simulating the dissolution of typical calcite and dolomite crystal faces in different solution systems and calculating their molecular weights,the essence of heterogeneous dissolution and pore formation on typical calcite and dolomite crystal faces was revealed,and the mechanism of dolomitization was also demonstrated.The properties of calcite and dolomite(104)/(110)grain boundaries and their dissolution mechanism in carbonate solution were revealed,showing the limiting factors of the dolomitization process and the preservation mechanism of deep buried dolomite reservoirs.The in situ laser U-Pb isotope dating technique has demonstrated the timing of dolomitization and pore formation in ancient carbonate rocks.This research also proposed that dolomitization occurred during the quasi-contemporaneous or shallow-burial periods within 50Ma after deposition and pores formed during the quasi-contemporaneous to the early diagenetic periods.And it was clear that the quasi-contemporaneous dolomitization was the key period for reservoir formation.The systematic characterization of the spatial distribution of the deepest dolomite reservoirs in multiple sets of the Sinian and the Cambrian in the Chinese craton basins provides an important basis for the distribution prediction of large-scale dolomite reservoirs.It clarifies the targets for oil and gas exploration at depths over 10000 m.The research on dolomite in this study will greatly promote China's ultradeep oil and gas exploration and lead the Chinese petroleum industry into a new era of 10000-m deep oil exploration.

文摘The tight-tuff heavy oil reservoir exhibits severe heterogeneity and is characterized by high density,high viscosity,and a high wax content,posing significant challenges for its development.While CO_(2)huffand-puff(H-n-P)enhances oil recovery,these reservoirs struggle with low displacement efficiency.This study proposes a method that combines CO_(2)with an oil-soluble viscosity reducer to improve displacement efficiency in the H-n-P process for tight-tuff heavy oil reservoirs.It also focuses on evaluating pore utilization limits and optimizing the injection strategy.Core samples and crude oil from the TH oilfield(a tight-tuff heavy oil reservoir)were used to conduct online NMR core flooding experiments,including depletion development,water,CO_(2),and HDC(CO_(2)combined with an oil-soluble viscosity reducer)H-n-P injection processes.A single-porosity model accurately reflecting its geological characteristics was developed using the GEM component simulator within the CMG numerical simulation software to investigate the optimized schemes and the enhanced oil recovery potential for a tight-tuff heavy oil reservoir in the TH oilfield.This model was utilized to evaluate the impact of various injection strategies on oilfield recovery efficiency.The study was designed and implemented with five distinct injection schemes.Results showed that oil was produced primarily from large and medium pores during the depletion stage,while water H-n-P,with CO_(2)H-n-P,first targeted macropores,then mesopores,and micropores.The lower pore utilization limit was 0.0267μm.In the HDC H-n-P process,most oil was recovered from water-flooded pores.Still,HDC's lower injection capacity increased the pore utilization limit to 0.03μm,making micropore recovery difficult.Experimental and modeling results suggest that the optimal develo p ment plan for the TH oilfield is one cycle of HDC H-n-P followed by two cycles of CO_(2)H-n-P.This strategy leverages HDC's ability to promote water and oil recovery in the early stage and mass transfer and extraction capacity of CO_(2)in later cycles.Additionally,the characteristics of CO_(2)and HDC H-n-P processes,pore utilization,and recoverable oil(at the pore scale)were evaluated.The results of this study are crucial for refining the reservoir development plan.

文摘High-quality reservoirs with sufficient physical properties of ultra-deep tight gas reservoirs in the Lower Cretaceous Bashijiqike Formation exhibit significant relationship with gas production across the Dabei Gas Field.Clarifying the characteristics,controlling factors,evolution and distribution of the high-quality reservoirs is important for the deployment of"sweet spots".An integrated approach of petrography,SEM,cathode luminescence,XRD,physical property,NMR experiment,well logs and 3D pre-stack depth migration data was carried out.This study examined the sedimentation,diagenesis,tectonism,gypsumrock and overpressure to reveal the formation and distribution of the high-quality reservoirs.The sandstones are very fine-to coarse-grained lithic arkose.The variation in detrital grains texture and mineralogical composition affects diagenetic evolution,pore structure and gas-bearing characteristic.Three diagenetic facies(diagenetic facies A to C)are classified.Different diagenetic facies underwent different evolution of reservoir quality.The medium-fine to medium-grained lithic arkose(diagenetic facies A)underwent medium vertical compaction,tectonic compression and cementation,and exhibited relatively porous,which makes partial primary pores preserved with the occurrence and persistence of overpressure.Conversely,the very fine to fine-grained and mud gravel-rich medium-grained lithic arkose(diagenetic facies B)and diagenetic facies C appeared premature densification by strong compaction and tight carbonate cementation,respectively,which makes them free from overpressure effects.Natural fractures increased the permeability by several orders of magnitude.Gypsum-rock weakened the vertical compaction and tectonic compression,and delayed cementation,promoted and preserved overpressure.With the injection of internal high alkaline fluids,anhydrite/dolomite cements/veins and dissolution of siliceous developed.Diagenetic facies A exhibited sufficient physical properties and gas volume,making it the high-quality reservoir in tight gas sandstone.Diagenetic facies B and C mainly were used as barriers for hydrocarbon charging.Diagenetic facies A was mainly distributed in the middle-lower part of distributary channel or the middle-upper part of mouth bar.This distribution model provides guidance for exploration in ultra-deep tight sandstone gas reservoir.
文摘So far, more than 150 marine oil-gas fields have been found onshore and offshore about 350. The marine source rocks are mainly Paleozoic and Mesozoic onshore whereas Tertiary offshore. Three genetic categories of oil-gas reservoirs have been defined for the marine reservoirs in China: primary reservoirs, secondary reservoirs and hydrocarbon-regeneration reservoirs. And three exploration prospects have also been suggested: (1) Primary reservoirs prospects, which are chiefly distributed in many Tertiary basins of the South China Sea (SCS), the Tertiary shelf basins of the East China Sea (ECS) and the Paleozoic of Tarim basin, Sichuan basin and Ordos basin. To explore large-middle-scale even giant oil-gas fields should chiefly be considered in this category reservoirs. These basins are the most hopeful areas to explore marine oil-gas fields in China, among which especially many Tertiary basins of the SCS should be strengthened to explore. (2) Secondary reservoirs prospects, which are mainly distributed in the Paleozoic and Mesozoic of the Tarim basin, Sichuan basin, Qiangtang basin and Chuxiong basin in western China, of which exploration potential is less than that of the primary reservoirs. (3) Hydrocarbon-regeneration reservoirs prospects, which are chiefly distributed in the Bohai Bay basin, North Jiangsu-South Yellow Sea basin, southern North China basin, Jianghan basin, South Poyang basin in eastern China and the Tarim basin in western China, of which source rocks are generally the Paleozoic. And the reservoirs formed by late-stage (always Cenozoic) secondary hydrocarbon generation of the Paleozoic source rocks should mainly be considered to explore, among which middle-small and small oil-gas fields are the chief exploration targets. As a result of higher thermal evolution of Paleozoic and Mesozoic source rocks, the marine reservoirs onshore are mainly gas fields, and so far marine oil fields have only been found in the Tarim basin. No other than establishing corresponding marine oil-gas exploration and development strategy and policy, sufficiently enhancing cognition to the particularity and complexity of China's marine petroleum geology, and applying new thoughts, new theories and new technologies, at the same time tackling some key technologies, it is possible to fast and effectually exploit and utilize the potential huge marine oil-gas resources of China.

文摘Based on the global basement reservoir database and the dissection of basement reservoirs in China,the characteristics of hydrocarbon accumulation in basement reservoirs are analyzed,and the favorable conditions for hydrocarbon accumulation in deep basement reservoirs are investigated to highlight the exploration targets.The discovered basement reservoirs worldwide are mainly buried in the Archean and Precambrian granitic and metamorphic formations with depths less than 4500 m,and the relatively large reservoirs have been found in rift,back-arc and foreland basins in tectonic active zones of the Meso-Cenozoic plates.The hydrocarbon accumulation in basement reservoirs exhibits the characteristics in three aspects.First,the porous-fractured reservoirs with low porosity and ultra-low permeability are dominant,where extensive hydrocarbon accumulation occurred during the weathering denudation and later tectonic reworking of the basin basement.High resistance to compaction allows the physical properties of these highly heterogeneous reservoirs to be independent of the buried depth.Second,the hydrocarbons were sourced from the formations outside the basement.The source-reservoir assemblages are divided into contacted source rock-basement and separated source rock-basement patterns.Third,the abnormal high pressure in the source rock and the normal–low pressure in the basement reservoirs cause a large pressure difference between the source rock and the reservoirs,which is conducive to the pumping effect of hydrocarbons in the deep basement.The deep basement prospects are mainly evaluated by the factors such as tectonic activity of basement,source-reservoir combination,development of large deep faults(especially strike-slip faults),and regional seals.The Precambrian crystalline basements at the margin of the intracontinental rifts in cratonic basins,as well as the Paleozoic folded basements and the Meso-Cenozoic fault-block basements adjacent to the hydrocarbon generation depressions,have favorable conditions for hydrocarbon accumulation,and thus they are considered as the main targets for future exploration of deep basement reservoirs.

文摘The increased frequency and intensity of heavy rainfall events due to climate change could potentially influence the movement of nutrients from land-based regions into recipient rivers.However,little information is available on how the rainfall affect nutrient dynamics in subtropicalmontane rivers with complex land use.This study conducted high-frequency monitoring to study the effects of rainfall on nutrients dynamics in an agricultural river draining to Lake Qiandaohu,a montane reservoir of southeast China.The results showed that riverine total nitrogen(TN)and total phosphorus(TP)concentrations increased continuously with increasing rainfall intensity,while TN:TP decreased.The heavy rainfall and rainstorm drove more than 30%of the annual N and P loading in only 5.20%of the total rainfall period,indicating that increased storm runoff is likely to exacerbate eutrophication in montane reservoirs.NO_(3)^(−)-N is the primary nitrogen form lost,while particulate phosphorus(PP)dominated phosphorus loss.Themain source of N is cropland,and themain source of P is residential area.Spatially,forestedwatersheds have better drainage quality,while it is still a potential source of nonpoint pollution during rainfall events.TN and TP concentrations were significantly higher at sites dominated by cropland and residential area,indicating their substantial contributions to deteriorating river water quality.Temporally,TN and TP concentrations reached high values in May-August when rainfall was most intense,while they were lower in autumn and winter than that in spring and summer under the same rainfall intensities.The results emphasize the influence of rainfall-runoff and land use on dynamics of riverine N and P loads,providing guidance for nutrient load reduction planning for Lake Qiandaohu.

文摘Photonic platforms are gradually emerging as a promising option to encounter the ever-growing demand for artificial intelligence,among which photonic time-delay reservoir computing(TDRC)is widely anticipated.While such a computing paradigm can only employ a single photonic device as the nonlinear node for data processing,the performance highly relies on the fading memory provided by the delay feedback loop(FL),which sets a restriction on the extensibility of physical implementation,especially for highly integrated chips.Here,we present a simplified photonic scheme for more flexible parameter configurations leveraging the designed quasi-convolution coding(QC),which completely gets rid of the dependence on FL.Unlike delay-based TDRC,encoded data in QC-based RC(QRC)enables temporal feature extraction,facilitating augmented memory capabilities.Thus,our proposed QRC is enabled to deal with time-related tasks or sequential data without the implementation of FL.Furthermore,we can implement this hardware with a low-power,easily integrable vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser for high-performance parallel processing.We illustrate the concept validation through simulation and experimental comparison of QRC and TDRC,wherein the simpler-structured QRC outperforms across various benchmark tasks.Our results may underscore an auspicious solution for the hardware implementation of deep neural networks.
文摘The physical properties of hydrocarbon reservoirs are important factors affecting the percolation ability of the reservoirs.Tight-sand reservoirs exhibit complex pore throat connectivity due to the extensive development of micro-and nano-scale pore and throat systems.Characterizing the microscopic properties of these reservoirs using nondestructive,quantitative methods serves as an important means to determine the characteristics of microscopic pores and throats in tight-sand reservoirs and the mechanism behind the influence of these characteristics on reservoir porosity and permeability.In this study,a low-permeability sandstone sample and two tight sandstone samples collected from the Ordos Basin were nondestructively tested using high-resolution nano-CT technology to quantitively characterize their microscopic pore throat structures and model them three-dimensionally(in 3D)based on CT threshold differences and gray models.A thorough analysis and comparison reveal that the three samples exhibit a certain positive correlation between their porosity and permeability but the most important factor affecting both porosity and permeability is the microscopic pore throat structure.Although the number of pores in tight sandstones shows a minor impact on their porosity,large pores(more than 20μm)contribute predominantly to porosity,suggesting that the permeability of tight sandstones is controlled primarily by large pore throats.For these samples,higher permeability corresponds to larger average throat sizes.Therefore,throats with average radii greater than 2μm can significantly improve the permeability of tight sandstones.
