Abstract:Wufeng-Longmaxi is an important formation in Sichuan Basin for shale gas exploration. Through comprehensive analysis of the geological parameters of stratigraphic thickness, buried depth, total organic carbon content, types of organic matter, organic matter maturation and gas content, indicates that there are big shale thickness(40-210m), shallow buried depth(<4500m), high total organic carbon content(TOC >1.5%) and high organic matter maturity(Ro=1.9-2.7%) in Wufeng-Longmaxi formation; Moreover, the type of organic matter is mainly in type Ⅰand the field desorption gas content in the lower and middle part of Wufeng-Longmaxi formation has a good level. In a word, Wufeng-Longmaxi formation has good potential for shale gas accumulation. Using multi-factor superposition and comprehensive geological analysis method, selected total organic carbon, thermal maturity, the buried depth, stratigraphic thickness and the surface condition as the core evaluation index for the favorable accumulation area prediction, 6 classⅠ and 2 class Ⅱ favorable areas are classified for Wufeng-Longmaxi formation. The prediction results accordance with the existing drilling gas content, confirmed the feasibility of the evaluation method and the evaluation results. Finally, this paper put forward a exploration and development proposal that “focused, priority and hierarchical”.
