Abstract:

Aiming at understanding the geological characteristics and seismic responses and identifying the play fairway of dolomite reservoirs in Shunnan area, the core, logging and test data of wells in Shunnan and its adjacent areas were integrated to study the petrological characteristics of the Lower Yingshan Formation(Ordovician)-Upper Cambrian. The micro-cracks/fractures and dolomite intercrystalline (dissolved) pores were identified to be the main reservoir space in the dolomite, and the formation of the dolomite reservoir was jointly controlled by various factors, including sedimentary facies and paleogeomorphology, deep hydrothermal modification, faulting and fracturing. The petrophysical parameters of limestone, dolomite, calcarenite, micrite and dolomitic limestone were obtained through a statistical analysis of cores and well logging data in the Lower Yingshan Formation of the Ordovician-Upper Cambrian. A seismic geological model of the target reservoir in the area was established in combination with 3D seismic data and geological calibration to the drilling data. A comparison analysis of the forward modeling results and actual seismic data with seismic geological model revealed that the seismic facies featuring low frequency, medium high amplitude and good continuity are markers of play fairway of dolomite reservoir. The combination of feature analysis of seismic wave forms and energy attribute prediction can be applied to effectively identify dolomite reservoirs, thus providing a basis for target evaluation and exploratory well emplacement in Shunnan area.
