The Application Extension of the Four Key Controlling Factors for the Formation of Lithologic Pool in Hongliuquan Area, Qaidam Basin

Abstract:

In order to research the application extension of the viewpoint of the four key factors controlling formation process of lithologic traps, the paper was dissected lithologic reservoir dynamically, mainly analyzing the paleo-fluid dynamics, paleo-hydrocarbon migration pathway, paleo-critical physical properties of reservoirs and paleo-sealing conditions of the traps in formation of hydrocarbon accumulation period. The results show that they recover the limited and most important factors for formation of lithologic traps and come back the formation process of lithologic traps availably, and it also can used to be evaluated low exploration basin dynamically, compositely analyzed key factors controlling formation process of lithologic traps and selected advantaged target area. The application of this methodology indicates that it could be widely used in the dynamic formation of lithologic traps and dynamical evaluation of low exploration basin in Hongliuquan area, Qaidam basin.
