Qunkuqiake Region is an important exploration block in Tarim Basin. Donghe Sandstone is the main oil and gas target stratum. In order to reveal the rules of migration of the sand body and predict the favorable reservoir accurately, two high-frequency cycles are identified in Donghe Sandstone each of which consists of rising hemicycle and descending hemicycle, the sedimentary characteristics are analysed within the sequence stratigraphic framework and the barrier bar subfacies are identified beginning with the sedimentary characteristics of glutenite through the study of drilling stratigraphic section using drilling data, well logging data and cores data. This paper has disclosed the transition of the sedimentary environment from barrier-free coast system to barrier coast system during the period from rising hemicycle to descending hemicycle and the planar distribution of sedimentary facies of different high frequency sequence of Donghe Sandstone.

The successful development of shale gas and oil in North America has created considerable interest in shale. The analysis of genetic types, the sedimentary environment, and the mudstone development mechanism within sequences is critical for evaluating shale gas and oil exploration prospects, exploration favorable zones, and resource potential. This study focused on the shale of Shahejie Formation in Dongying Depression of Bohai Bay Basin. Shale lithofacies division, geochemical analysis, and well-log analysis were performed for a sedimentary environment and its related elemental response characteristics’ identification. Based on the results, we concluded that the sedimentary environment of the lake basin evolved from the saltwater lake to the ambiguous lake and then the open lake to the delta. In response, we observed gradually decreasing Sr/Ba and Ca/Mg ratios and increasing Rb/Ca and Fe/Mn ratios during the whole process during the reduction of the salinity and the decrease in PH value and sediments’ transport distance. The relationship between ratio elements and high-frequency sequences was initially established within the shale strata. Our results show that ratios of Sr/Ba and Ca/Mg ratios near the sequence boundary are relatively low, and ratios of Fe/Mn and Rb/Ca are relatively high, while ratios of Sr/Ba and Ca/Mg near the flooding surface are relatively high, and ratios of Fe/Mn and Rb/Ca are relatively low. Those features can be used as a marker for high-frequency sequence division of shale strata. Our results provided a new theoretical basis and technical method for shale gas and oil exploration and development.

Based on ten well cores, seventeen hundred logging data and initial potential data, sedimentary characteristics and mode of shallow lacustrine fluvial-dominated delta of Putaohua oil layer in the east of Sanzhao depression were analyzed. It is realized that distributary channel sandbodies as sand body framework of this delta system, which is abundant, closely and narrow, and the framework of sand body is in a large number of narrow banded shape (mostly 200 ~ 300m), and can extend hundreds of kilometers of continuous, dense, overall was SW, and combines well with other types sand surface to become a better distributary channel sand body. Based on understanding of sedimentary background, developmental process, sedimentary characteristics and sedimentary facies type of Putaohua oil layer in Sanzhao depression, sedimentary mode of shallow lacustrine fluvial-dominated delta is established in the study area, and sedimentary mode of five subfacies is further divided: Delta distributary plain subfacies is mode of fluvial-dominated belt body; Transition region of front-distributary plain is mode of inshore; Inner front is mode of fluvial-dominated belt body; Transition region of inner front-outer front is mode of fluvial-dominated sheet sand; Shallow lacustrine fluvial-dominated delta outer front is mode of tide-dominated sheet sand; Also pointed out that overall shows NE –SW trending submerged distributary channel sandbodies which is abundant, closely and narrow is the main reservoir of the study area. It provides the solid geological basis for the establishment of spatial distribution pattern of reservoir; identify the causes of mainly monosandbody and further tapping the potential of oil field.

The mudstone and marl from western Hoh Xil basin, located in Tibet of the west of China, were deposited in Tertiary lacustrine environment. Investigation of organic geochemistry, sedimentary characteristics, and 13C in kerogen was conducted to analyze the sedimentary environment, biomarkers, paleoclimate, and source of organic matter during deposition. The Cenozoic sedimentary facies of the basin included upper lacustrine facies and lower alluvial fan facies, which belong to Miocene Wudaoliang Formation and Oligocene Yaxicuo Group, respectively. The Miocene marl-sandstone-mudstone from Wudaoliang Formation was analyzed. Maceral composition was dominated by amorphous organic matter. T max values indicated that the mudstones were thermally immature-low maturity with mainly type II and III organic matter, while organic matter in marlite belongs mainly to type I-II1 with low maturity-maturity stage. The biomarkers showed the characteristics of odd-over-even predominance of long-chain n-alkanes, higher proportion of C27 sterane in most of the samples, heavy δ13Corg composition, low Pr/Ph ratios (0.11-0.36), and so on. Organic geochemistry indicated that the organic matter originated from bacteria, algae, and higher plants. The rocks were formed in reducing environments with stratified water column and high productivity. The paleoclimate became more humid during depositional stage in the western Hoh Xil basin.

In order to promote the rolling exploration and development of oil reservoirs in northern Shaanxi, a fine study of sedimentary facies in area A has been carried out. Using core and logging data, on the basis of identifying different levels of sequence interfaces and lake flooding, the Chang 2 Member in Area A was divided into two base level cycles, and a high-resolution sequence stratigraphic correlation was established. On the basis of core description, the analysis of single-well sedimentary facies, continuous-well sedimentary facies and planar sedimentary facies are carried out. It is believed that the Chang 2 member of the study area is a delta plain deposit, dominated by distributary channels, inter-distributary depressions, and natural dike microfacies. There are two to three main rivers in the study area. Both the vertical and the plane show that the length of Chang 22 sand bodies is more developed than the length of Chang 21 sand bodies. Among the three small layers of Chang 22, Chang 221 sand body is relatively well developed, and the channel width and thickness are large, making it the most favorable reservoir.

Sedimentary facies type of the Shanxi Formation in northeastern Ordos Basin is an ongoing debate. Based on field measurements, sample collection and identification, and laboratory analysis, we systematically evaluated the sedimentary characteristics of the sandstone bodies of Shanxi Formation of Chengjiazhuang section in Liulin. Analysis included identifying sample composition, grain size, texture, sedimentary structure and spatial distribution. We came to the conclusion that the sedimentary environment of Shanxi Formation is deltaic. This deltaic environment included deltaic front and deltaic plain. It can be further divided into five sedimentary microfacies: subfluvial distributary channel, subfluvial distributary interchannel, distributary channel, levee, and peat bog. And lastly, the evolution of sedimentary environment of Shanxi Formation is discussed.
