A fluid inclusion petrographic and microthermometric study was performed on the sandstones gathered from the Yanchang Formation, Jiyuan area of the Ordos Basin. Four types of fluid inclusions in quartz can be recognized based on the location they entrapped. The petrographic characteristics indicate that fluid inclusions in quartz overgrowth and quartz fissuring-I were trapped earlier than that in quartz fissuring-IIa and fissuring-IIb. The homogenization temperature values of the earlier fluid inclusions aggregate around 80 to 90°C; exclusively, it is slightly higher in Chang 6 member, which approaches 95°C. The later fluid inclusions demonstrate high homogenization temperatures, which range from 100 to 115°C, and the temperatures are slightly higher in Chang 9 member. The calculated salinities show differences between each member, including their regression characteristics with burial depth. Combining with the vitrinite reflection data, the sequence and parameters of fluid inclusions indicate that the thermal history of the Yanchang formation mostly relied on burial. Salinity changes were associated with fluid-rock interaction or fluid interruption. Hydrocarbon contained fluid inclusions imply that hydrocarbon generation and migration occurred in the Early Cretaceous. The occurrence of late fluid inclusions implied that quartz cement is a reservoir porosity-loose factor.

The Paleozoic strata are widely distributed in the northwest of the Ordos Basin, and the provenance attributes of the basin sediments during this period are still controversial. In this paper, the detrital zircon LA-MC-ICPMS U-Pb age test was conducted on the drilling core samples of the Shanxi Formation of the Upper Paleozoic in the Otuokeqi area of the Ordos Basin, and the provenance age and the characteristic of the Shanxi formation in the Otuokeqi area in the northwest were discussed. The cathodoluminescence image shows that the detrital zircon has a clear core-edge structure, and most of the cores have clear oscillatory zonings, which suggests that they are magmatic in origin. Zircons have no oscillatory zoning structure that shows the cause of metamorphism. The age of detrital zircon is dominated by Paleoproterozoic and can be divided into four groups, which are 2500~2300 Ma, 2100~1600 Ma, 470~400 Ma, and 360~260 Ma. The first two groups are the specific manifestations of the Precambrian Fuping Movement (2.5 billion years) and the Luliang Movement (1.8 billion years) of the North China Craton. The third and fourth groups of detrital zircons mainly come from Paleozoic magmatic rocks formed by the subduction and collision of the Siberian plate and the North China plate. The ε Hf t value of zircon ranges from -18.36 to 4.33, and the age of the second-order Hf model T DM 2 ranges from 2491 to 1175 Ma. The source rock reflecting the provenance of the sediments comes from the material recycling of the Paleoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic in the crust, combined with the Meso-Neoproterozoic detrital zircons discovered this time, indicating that the provenance area has experienced Greenwellian orogeny.

Main Component

Based on the comprehensive analysis of the characteristics of tight sandstone gas composition, carbon isotope, light hydrocarbons and source rocks in Linxing area of Ordos Basin, the reservoir-forming model of tight sandstone gas in this area is discussed. The study shows that methane is the main component of tight sandstone gas, with low contents of heavy hydrocarbons and non-hydrocarbons, mainly belonging to dry gas in the Upper Paleozoic in Linxing area. The values of δ13C1, δ13C2 and δ13C3 of natural gas are in the ranges of -45.6‰ ~ -32.9‰, -28.9‰ ~ -22.3‰ and -26.2‰~ -19.1‰, respectively. The carbon isotopic values of alkane gas show a general trend of positive carbon sequence. δ13C1 value is less than -30‰, with typical characteristics of organic genesis. There is a certain similarity in the composition characteristics of light hydrocarbons. The C7 series show the advantage of methylhexane, while the C5-7 series mainly shows the advantage of isoalkane. The tight sandstone gas in this area is mainly composed of mature coal-derived gas, containing a small amount of coal-derived gas and oil-type gas mixture. According to the mode of hydrocarbon generation, diffusion and migration of source rocks in Linxing area, the tight sandstone gas in the study area can be divided into three types of reservoir-forming assemblages: the upper reservoir type of the far-source type (upper Shihezi formation-shiqianfeng formation sandstone reservoir-forming away from source rocks), the upper reservoir type of the near-source type ( the Lower Shihezi formation sandstone reservoir-outside the source rock), and the self-storage type of the source type (Shanxi formation-Taiyuan formation source rock internal sand reservoir).
