Abstract:

Quantitative analysis of the characteristics and porosity of the reservoir in the third interval of the 4th member of Middle Triassic Leikoupo Formation (T2l4-3) in Majing area, Western Sichuan Basin, was carried out through thin section observation, physical property analysis, and thin section porosity quantification of the reservoirs in Well A1.The results show that the reservoirs are mainly developed in dolomitic flat, algal dolomitic flat and lime-algal dolomitic flat, with intercrystalline pores, intercrystalline dissolved pores and fractures as the dominant pore types, and intergranular (dissolved) pores, intragranular (dissolved) pores, moldic pores, framework pores, fenestral pores and dissolved fractures as the minor pore types.In addition, the main rock types were identified therein as crystalline dolomite, crystalline granular dolomite, granular crystalline dolomite, and lime dolomite.Among others, dolomitic limestone of crystalline granular type dominates in the reservoir of the upper section of T2l4-3, while grained crystalline dolomite and crystalline granular dolomite dominate in the reservoir of the lower section of T2l4-3 in Majing area.The quantified thin section porosity is well correlated with the tested porosity for different types of rock.What's more, the quantitative analysis can be applied to calculate the thin section porosity of different sedimentary microfacies, rock types and reservoir spaces.It can serve as a supportive method for the fine study of carbonate reservoir characteristics.

Key words: quantification of thin section porosity, reservoir space, Leikoupo Formaiton, Majing area, Sichuan Basin
