Abstract:

A detailed analysis based on test data of thin rock section,X-ray diffraction,geochemistry,etc.,is carried out on the diagenesis of Liaozhong sag in Liaohe depression and pore evolution in its middle-and deep-strata.Five diagenetic stages are classified according to the analysis.They are A and B stages of early diagenesis,and A,B,and C stages of late diagenesis.A study on the evolution characteristics and forming mechanism of the secondary pores and their relationships with diagenesis reveals that two main secondary pore zones in middle-and deep-strata are formed mainly by the rapid evolution of clay minerals,hydrocarbon generation,and overpressure,and correspond respectively to the B stage of the early diagenesis and the A stage of late diagenesis.It is concluded that the secondary pore zones in middle-and deep-strata of overpressured areas in Liaozhong sag are the potential exploration targets for the future.

Key words: diagenesis, secondary pore, mechanism, middle-deep strata, Liaozhong sag, Liaohe depression
