Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of shale gas exploration and development, and in particular to a method, device, electronic equipment and medium for identifying a transitional phase shale deposition environment. Background Art

[0002] Transitional shale gas resources play a vital role in national economic development. The shale revolution has profoundly changed the concept of oil and gas exploration and greatly expanded the scope of oil and gas exploration. Organic-rich shales are economically valuable because they often serve as source rocks within sedimentary rocks and are associated with the formation of various heavy metals.

[0003] Currently, research on transitional shale focuses primarily on its material source and occurrence state, with limited attention paid to identifying its depositional environment. Common identification methods include field outcrop analysis, drilling, logging, and seismic methods. However, due to the widespread distribution of sedimentary deposits, frequent interbeds, and complex accumulation in marine-continental transitional shale gas reservoirs, field outcrops have long been subject to intense diagenesis and weathering. Visual observation of the depositional environment alone can lead to significant errors. Well logging and seismic methods, which rely on data and wave reflections to identify shale depositional environments, offer some reliability but are limited. Consequently, existing identification methods yield inaccurate results and exhibit significant limitations, namely, they are only effective for transitional shale deposits in a single region and lack universal applicability.

[0031] Figure 1 The present invention provides a flowchart of a method for identifying a transitional phase shale deposition environment. This embodiment is applicable to identifying a transitional phase shale deposition environment. The method can be executed by a transitional phase shale deposition environment identification device. The transitional phase shale deposition environment identification device can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The transitional phase shale deposition environment identification device can be configured in any electronic device with network communication capabilities. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0032] S110 . Determine a basin area to be measured, where the basin area to be measured is a basin area formed by Carboniferous-Permian coal-bearing strata.

[0033] In the examples of this application, the basin region to be tested refers to a basin region containing transitional facies shale gas resources in the Carboniferous-Permian coal-bearing strata. In this example, basins composed of transitional organic-rich mud shale are studied. Field outcrop and core observations, sampling, geochemical parameters, and physical property data are analyzed to investigate shale gas accumulation conditions, including the sedimentary facies, thickness and distribution, organic matter type and content, thermal maturity, and porosity of the organic-rich mud shale.

[0034] S120 , detecting the transitional phase shale in the basin area to be measured to obtain sedimentological index parameters and geochemical index parameters corresponding to the basin area to be measured.

[0035] In the present application, a transition phase refers to a state of matter between two distinct phases during a phase transition. During the transition from one phase to another, the material first transitions to the transition phase before completing the phase transition. A marine-continental transition phase refers to sedimentary products formed in a transitional environment characterized by the combined influence of ocean wave and tidal forces and continental river forces.

[0036] It should be noted that the sedimentological index parameters and geochemical index parameters are used as index parameters for the subsequent classification of marine-continental transitional shale sedimentary environment.

[0037] As an optional but non-limiting implementation, the transitional phase shale in the basin area to be tested is tested to obtain sedimentological index parameters and geochemical index parameters corresponding to the basin area to be tested, including steps A1-A2:

[0038] Step A1: Determine reference information corresponding to the basin area to be tested, wherein the reference information includes cores from areas with similar genesis to the transitional phase shale gas in the basin area to be tested, distribution of drilling positions in the basin area to be tested, and geochemical test data of the basin area to be tested.

[0039] Step A2: Detecting the transitional phase shale in the basin area to be measured based on the reference information to obtain sedimentological index parameters and geochemical index parameters corresponding to the basin area to be measured.

[0040] In the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that the classification of the marine-continental transitional shale sedimentary environment is carried out based on reference information. The reference information includes cores, borehole location distribution and chemical test data in areas with similar genesis to the transitional shale gas in the basin area to be tested. The specific implementation method is to collect core and borehole information and geochemical test data from areas with similar genesis to the transitional shale gas in the study area, including the latest research progress at home and abroad related to this content. From the dimension of genesis, shale gas includes almost all organic matter gas generation modes such as biochemical genesis, pyrolysis, cracking genesis and mixed genesis, and can be hidden in all stages from immature to highly mature. For example Figure 2 The distribution of drilling locations in area A, which has a similar transitional shale depositional environment to the basin area to be measured, is shown. The multiple dense black dots in the figure are drilling locations.

[0041] It should be noted that the sedimentological index parameters include sedimentary facies and sedimentary patterns, lithofacies types and interpretations, and paleoclimatic conditions; and the geochemical index parameters include organic geochemical analysis, elemental geochemical analysis, and rock and mineral composition analysis.

[0042] S130. Based on the sedimentological index parameters and geochemical index parameters corresponding to the basin area to be measured, the transitional phase shale depositional environment classification result of the basin area to be measured is determined by a preset transitional phase shale depositional environment classification model. The preset transitional phase shale depositional environment classification model is a classification model of transitional phase shale depositional environments of different origins under the sedimentological and geochemical indicators established by analyzing the transitional phase shale depositional facies under the combined effects of climate, environment, and plants at the basin scale.

[0043] In the examples of this application, it should be noted that the preset transitional shale sedimentary environment classification model is based on a basin-scale analysis of transitional shale sedimentary facies under the combined effects of climate, environment, and vegetation, establishing a shale sedimentary environment classification scheme that is jointly verified by multiple parameter indicators. The basin scale includes both time and space scales. The time scale refers to the length of the tectonic evolution period experienced by the tectonic landform, and the spatial scale refers to the size of the landform distribution range.

[0044] The transitional shale samples of different genesis collected from the basin to be tested are combined with other controlling factors, including climate, structure, environment, etc., to interpret the genesis of the collected samples.

[0045] Among them, the process of establishing a sedimentary model refers to taking the transitional shale field outcrop profile or drill core as the research object, applying the modeled coal-bearing outcrop profile sedimentary environment analysis method, and referring to the lithofacies division standard, according to the six steps of geological stratification and numbering (lithology differences, color differences, fossil species differences, thick layer changes, sedimentary structure changes, scour surface, exposure surface and flooding surface), stratification description and recording (rock characteristics such as occurrence characteristics, thick layer characteristics, contact relationship and sedimentary structure; lithology characteristics such as clastic rock, mudstone, chemical rock, organic rock; fossil characteristics; sketches; photography), lithofacies induction and sedimentary environment interpretation (rock layer characteristics, lithology characteristics and biological fossils and other lithofacies identification basis; lithofacies summary and interpretation; comparative analysis of connected wells in the study area; determination of sedimentary environment with reference to previous achievements, sedimentary model comparison and Walter facies ratio), drawing of freehand lithofacies profile (vertical scale, layer number, layer thickness, lithology filling, sedimentary structure, sedimentary environment and marker layer), sedimentary model and profile environment evolution, and collation of indoor data.

[0046] Each lithofacies combination is a unique and genetically related sedimentary environment. Transitional shale can be generally divided into three sedimentary environments: delta, tidal flat and bay. It can be further divided into eight sedimentary microfacies: upper delta plain river lake and backshore wetland, lower delta plain inter-distributary bay, intertidal zone, supratidal wetland, supratidal dry land, nearshore bay and farshore bay. According to the evolution of sedimentary environment, the shallow water delta-tidal flat-bay system sedimentary model of transitional shale was established.

[0047] See also Figure 4 The supratidal wetland facies interpretation plate is shown. Figure 4 Figure a is a panoramic view of the supratidal wetland and dryland shale profiles; b is a detailed view of the supratidal wetland shale outcrop; c is a photo of a hand-collected shale sample, showing well-developed lamellae; d and e are photos of thin sections of shale samples (single polarized light), showing a large amount of organic matter in the form of bands, mainly vitrinite (dark red); f and g are oil microscope photos of shale samples, showing rich organic matter; h and i are scanning electron microscope photos of shale samples, showing that organic matter is developed in bands and is rich in content.

[0048] See also Figure 5 Diagram showing the sedimentation pattern of shallow delta-tidal flat-bay.

[0049] As an optional but non-limiting implementation method, based on the sedimentological indicator parameters and geochemical indicator parameters corresponding to the basin area to be measured, the transitional phase shale depositional environment classification result of the basin area to be measured is determined by a preset transitional phase shale depositional environment classification model, including steps B1-B2:

[0050] Step B1: Measure and catalog core data of a first object corresponding to the basin area to be measured to obtain sedimentological index parameters corresponding to the basin area to be measured, wherein the first object is a typical transitional shale outcrop or drill core profile selected from the transitional shale in the basin area to be measured.

[0051] In the examples of this application, transitional shale samples collected from different locations in the basin to be measured were measured and cored, and transitional shale with typical characteristics was selected for analysis. Figure 3 , showing that the transitional phase shale samples collected from different directions in the basin area to be tested are transitional phase shale outcrops and drill core profiles.

[0052] Step B2: Perform a preset analysis on a second object corresponding to the basin area to be measured to obtain geochemical index parameters corresponding to the basin area to be measured, wherein the second object is transitional phase shale samples of different genesis collected from the transitional phase shale in the basin area to be measured, and the preset analysis includes experimental analysis corresponding to rock thin section identification, mineralogy, elemental geochemistry, organic geochemistry and kerogen microscopic components.

[0053] In the examples of this application, thin-section identification, mineralogy, elemental geochemistry, organic geochemistry, and kerogen maceral composition were performed on the collected transitional shale samples of different origins. Through thin-section analysis, X-ray diffraction, inductive coupling, and kerogen analysis, the mineral composition and organic matter type (TOC) in the microscopic environment can be determined, with a focus on changes in the composition of organic macerals, authigenic clay minerals, coarse clastic particles (feldspar, quartz), and interlayered thin sandstone. Geochemical methods, primarily based on major and trace elements (P, Al, S, Sr, Ba, B, Ga, U, Th, etc.) and their ratios (P / Al, S / TOC, Sr / Ba, B / Ga, U / Th, etc.), are used to determine the sensitive effects of elements on various environments during migration and change.

[0054] As an optional but non-limiting implementation method, the first object corresponding to the basin area to be measured is measured and core cataloged to obtain sedimentological indicator parameters corresponding to the basin area to be measured, including the sedimentological indicator parameters including sample collection corresponding to geological stratification description, facies summary and genetic interpretation; the geological stratification description content includes rock layer characteristics and lithologic characteristics, the rock layer characteristics include color, occurrence, rock layer morphology, layer thickness, contact relationship and structure, and the lithologic characteristics include rock structure and material composition.

[0055] In the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that the geological stratification description refers to the description of rock layer characteristics and lithologic characteristics. The main characteristic rock layer refers to a geological body composed of the same lithology and bounded by two parallel or nearly parallel interfaces. It usually consists of one or several layers. It is the basic stratigraphic unit and lithologic unit of the sedimentary sphere. Rock layer characteristics include color, occurrence, rock layer morphology, layer thickness, contact relationship and structure. Rock color can be used as an important basis for rock stratification, and single layer thickness can be used as a basis for rock stratification. Strata can be divided according to rock particle composition.

[0056] Lithologic characteristics include rock structure and material composition. Lithologic types generally fall into two categories: rock and soil. Rock is a naturally occurring, solid aggregate composed of one or more minerals (including volcanic glass, biological remains, and colloids). It is the solid component of the Earth's crust and mantle. Rocks can be divided into sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks based on their origin. Soil is a loose, soft accumulation of material that has not yet consolidated into rock, primarily a product of the Quaternary period.

[0057] As an optional but non-limiting implementation method, the sedimentological indicator parameters include geological stratification description, lithofacies summary and sample collection corresponding to genetic interpretation, including the sample collection corresponding to the genetic interpretation is the genetic interpretation of transitional shale lithofacies and sampling of transitional shales of different genesis, the sampling spacing is 20-30 cm, and the sampling weight is 200-300 g / piece.

[0058] In the examples of the present application, it should be noted that the genesis of samples collected at different geographical locations in the basin to be tested may be different, and the genesis of the transitional shale samples is interpreted in combination with factors such as climate, structure, and environment.

[0059] As an optional but non-limiting implementation method, a preset analysis is performed on the second object corresponding to the basin area to be measured to obtain geochemical indicator parameters corresponding to the basin area to be measured, including that the geochemical indicator parameters include the mineral composition and organic matter type under the microscopic environment, and the geochemical indicator parameters also include changes in the material composition of organic microscopic components, authigenic clay minerals, coarse debris particles and interlayer thin sandstones, as well as the sensitive effects of major and trace elements on various environments during migration and change.

[0060] In the examples of this application, geochemical parameters serve as the basis for classifying the sedimentary environments of transitional shale deposits using samples collected from different geographic locations within the basin under investigation. These parameters include organic geochemical analysis, elemental geochemical analysis, and rock and mineral composition analysis. Specifically, these parameters include variations in the composition of organic macerals, authigenic clay minerals, coarse clastic particles, and intercalated thin sandstones, as well as the ratios of major and trace elements.

[0061] As an optional but non-limiting implementation, the geochemical indicator parameters include the mineral composition and organic matter type under the microscopic environment, the geochemical indicator parameters also include the material composition changes of organic microscopic components, authigenic clay minerals, coarse detrital particles and interbedded thin sandstones, and the sensitivity of major and trace elements to various environments during migration and change. The sensitivity of the major and trace elements to various environments during migration and change is determined based on the preset ratios between the major and trace elements in the transitional phase shale and the major and trace elements in the transitional phase shale, the major and trace elements including P, Al, S, Sr, Ba, B, Ga, U and Th, and the preset ratios between the major and trace elements are P / Al, S / TOC, Sr / Ba, B / Ga, and U / Th.

[0062] In this embodiment, geochemical index parameters are the basis for classifying the sedimentary environment of transitional shale by collecting samples from different geographical locations in the basin to be tested. Mineral morphology and structure in the microscopic environment include the morphology, crystal faces, crystal growth mode, crystal distortion and defects of mineral crystals. Mineral composition refers to the rich element composition, such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, potassium, boron, manganese, etc. Organic matter types include carbon-containing organic matter such as animal and plant remains, decomposed and generated organic matter, and microorganisms. It is a high-molecular organic compound, such as carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

[0063] Among them, the main trace elements include P, Al, S, Sr, Ba, B, Ga, U and Th, which correspond to phosphorus, aluminum, sulfur, strontium, barium, boron, gallium, uranium and thorium in the periodic table respectively.

[0064] Based on the above steps, Figure 6 A flow chart of the method for rapidly identifying the depositional environment of transitional shale is shown.

[0065] First, core and drill hole data and geochemical test data from areas with similar transitional shale gas genesis to the study area are collected, including the latest research progress related to this content at home and abroad.

[0066] Second, measure and log the typical transitional shale outcrops or drill core sections, such as Figure 3 The main contents include geological stratification description, lithofacies summary and genetic interpretation, and sample collection. The stratification description includes rock layer characteristics and lithologic characteristics. The former includes color, occurrence, rock layer morphology, layer thickness, contact relationships, and structure, while the latter includes rock structure and material composition. In combination with other controlling factors (climate, structure, environment, etc.), the transitional shale lithofacies is interpreted. Samples are collected from different transitional shale genesis, with sampling spacing of 20-30 cm and sample weight of 200-300g per piece.

[0067] Third, thin-section identification, mineralogy, elemental geochemistry, organic geochemistry, and kerogen maceral composition were performed on the collected transitional shale samples from different origins. Thin-section analysis, X-ray diffraction, inductive coupling, and kerogen analysis determined the mineralogy and organic matter (TOC) types within the microscopic environment, focusing on variations in the composition of organic macerals, authigenic clay minerals, coarse clastic particles (feldspar, quartz), and interbedded thin sandstones. Geochemical methods, primarily based on major and trace elements (P, Al, S, Sr, Ba, B, Ga, U, Th, etc.) and their ratios (P / Al, S / TOC, Sr / Ba, B / Ga, U / Th, etc.), determined the sensitivity of elements to various environments during their migration and changes.

[0068] Finally, based on the results of steps two and three, a basin-scale analysis of the transitional shale sedimentary facies under the combined effects of climate, environment, and plants was conducted, and a classification scheme for the sedimentary environments of transitional shale with different genesis was established using multi-parameter indicators.

[0069] The present invention discloses a method for identifying a transitional phase shale sedimentary environment. The method comprises: determining a basin area to be tested, wherein the basin area to be tested is a basin area composed of Carboniferous-Permian coal-bearing strata; testing the transitional phase shale in the basin area to be tested to obtain sedimentological index parameters and geochemical index parameters corresponding to the basin area to be tested; and determining the classification result of the transitional phase shale sedimentary environment of the basin area to be tested by a preset transitional phase shale sedimentary environment classification model based on the sedimentological index parameters and geochemical index parameters corresponding to the basin area to be tested. By adopting the scheme of the present application, the classification result of the transitional phase shale sedimentary environment of the basin area to be tested is determined by a preset transitional phase shale sedimentary environment classification model, which solves the limitation of being effective only for transitional phase shale objects in a single region and improves the universality and accuracy of the method for identifying the sedimentary environment of transitional phase shale.
