Comparison of Qingshankou Formation in Songliao Basin with Bakken Formation in Williston Basin

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on geological background, this study is to understand the potential of tight oil of Qingshankou Formation in Songliao Basin by comparing lithofacies features, oil-generating conditions and reservoir characteristics. Hundreds of samples are analyzed to derive geochemical parameters, such as organic richness, kerogen type, and source rock maturity. The results indicate that source rocks of Qingshankou Formation are organic rich, contain oil-prone kerogen, and are thermally mature. The tight reservoir of Qingshankou Formation has complicated pore throat structure, abundant fractures, and an beneficial place for oil accumulation.
