Comprehensive Study

According to the fundamental principles of high resolution sequence stratigraphy, this paper focused on the application of high resolution sequence stratigraphy to Silurian strata in Tazhong area. Based on the comprehensive study of logging, drilling and seismic information, the high resolution sequence boundaries of Silurian strata and two scales of datum level cycles (long-term and intermediate-term) can be recognized in Tazhong area. Seven chronstratigraphic boundaries can be recognized in Silurian strata, including four sequence boundaries, which were the transformation from datum level falling to datum level rising, and three flooding surfaces, which the transformation from datum level rising to datum level falling. The Silurian strata in Tazhong area can be divided into three third-order sequences which correspond to three long-term datum level cycles, and 11 fourth-order sequences (parasequence sets) relating to 11 intermediate-term datum level cycles. The classification aforementioned can much better solved the corresponding problem between the six lithological sections of Silurian strata and sequence formations, finally establishes the high resolution sequence stratigraphic framework of Silurian strata in Tazhong area.

Putaohua reservoir is the principal producing formation in Daqing oilfield Xingbei block. The spatial distribution of single sand body is particularly important for the residual oil tapping in the middle-late stage of oilfield development. The paper studied sedimentary microfacies of Putaohua reservoirs in the zone, established high-resolution sequence stratigraphic framework of the area and a typical single sand body logging phase mode on the basis of logging features, finely portrayed single sand body type and spatial distribution on this basis to lay the solid geological foundation for oilfield subsequent residual oil tapping and provide a scientific geology guide.

Intense investigations of deep aquifers in Jylland, western Denmark, during the last seven years have resulted in de tailed mapping of Miocene sand-rich deposits laid down in fluvial channels, delta lobes, shoreface and spit complexes (Fig. 1; Rasmussen 2004). Detailed sedimentological and paly nol ogical studies of outcrops and cores, and interpretation of high-resolution seismic data, have resulted in a well-founded sequence-stratigraphic and lithostratigraphic scheme (Fig. 1) suitable for prediction of the distribution of sand. The Miocene succession onshore Denmark is divided into three sand-rich deltaic units: the Ribe and Bastrup sands and the Odderup Formation (Fig. 2). Prodeltaic clayey deposits of the Vejle Fjord and Arnum Formations interfinger with the sand-rich deposits. Most of the middle and upper Mio- cene in Denmark is composed of clayey sediments referred to the Hodde and Gram Formations (Fig. 2). This paper presents examples of seismic reflection patterns that have proved to correlate with sand-rich deposits from lower Miocene deltaic deposits and that could be applied in future exploration for aquifers and as analogues for oil- and gas-bearing sands in wave-dominated deltas.

Insight Into

The petroleum prospectivity of the northern Perth Basin has been assessed by Geoscience Australia (GA) as part of the Australian Government’s Offshore Energy Security Program, in support of the 2011 offshore acreage release. This assessment includes the first published synthesis of data from fourteen new field wildcat wells drilled in this part of the basin since the Cliff Head 1 discovery (2001), and the interpretation of new regional 2D seismic data acquired during GA survey 310. Most petroleum accumulations in the northern Perth Basin are associated with Permian and Triassic source and reservoir intervals, and are found onshore and nearshore (ie. Cliff Head, Frankland, Dunsborough and Perseverance discoveries). In addition to the technical and commercial successes, numerous wells in the offshore part of the basin have intersected residual oil columns indicative of trap breach. New and legacy palynological data from Permian to Cretaceous strata in offshore wells have been used to provide age constraints for a sequence stratigraphic framework for this part of the basin. New seismic data show Permo-Triassic strata that are stratigraphic equivalents of the productive onshore and nearshore Perth Basin petroleum system, also occur within Permian half-graben in the outer Abrolhos and Houtman sub-basins. Source rock, oil stain and fluid inclusion sampling from this interval suggest that the proven onshore petroleum system is also effective in the offshore. A refined tectono-stratigraphic model for the offshore basin provides insights into basin evolution, prospectivity and contributing factors driving trap breach. Geochemical sampling in the context of the new detailed sequence framework, including from recently dredged rock samples from incised canyons, has also provided insight into the potential effectiveness of a Jurassic/Cretaceous petroleum system in the Houtman and Zeewyck sub-basins.
