Abstract:

The structure of Jiyuan region in the Ordos Basin was relatively stable during the deposition of Chang 82.In this period,a shallow water delta depositional system was developed,the lake shore line slightly migrated in the southeast,and distributary channel and underwater distributary channel constituted the deposition framework.This paper studied the diagenesis of Chang 82 reservoir based on large amount of thin sections,core observation,SEM samples,X-ray analysis,and Cathodoluminescence analysis.The study shows that the diagenesis has double effects on the reservoir.On one hand,early development of chlorite film has a positive effect on anti-compaction.The early calcite is easy to be dissolved by organic acid,resulting in secondary pores and improving poroperm characteristics.Dissolution is the major mechanism of secondary pore formation and can greatly improve reservoir poroperm characteristics.On the other hand,compaction destroys the primary porosity formed in early digenetic process,and late ferrocalcite fills pores,resulting in local strong calcareous cementation zone.In general,the sedimentary facies and diagenetic facies control the distribution of oil and gas.The former determines the reservoir shape and dimensions.While the later modifies reservoir pore space.Late diagenesis-modified chlorite-cemented sedimentary facies with residual inter-granular pores and that with feldspar-dissolution plus residual inter-granular pores are the major reservoir spaces for hydrocarbon accumulation.
