The Methods of Shale Gas Resources Potential Evaluation in the Application of Chongqing Northeast

Abstract:

To analyse the potential evaluation of shale gas resources and to know the resources of shale gas in Chongqing northeast, it is very important to research on the methods of shale gas resources potential evaluation in the application of Chongqing northeast. Based on the research of shale gas resources potential evaluation by comparing with the American, and combined with the characteristics of shale gas in Chongqing northeast and the thickness, density, buried depth, TOC, Ro, organic types, conditions of cap rock and reservoir, using abundance analogy method, volume method and Delphi method in this area to forecast preliminarily the shale gas resources in Chongqing northeast. The results show that there are rich in shale gas resources of Chongqing northeast and have broad prospect for exploration.
