The sequence stratigraphic system is composed of different orders of sequences, which includes 96 sequences, 31 supersequences, 9 supersequence sets and 4 megasequences. The characteristics of some important sequence boundaries are discussed and their time ranges are suggested, thus enhancing the precision of stratigraphic correlation in North Tarim basin.展开更多

The geochemistry characteristics of the rocks show that basic volcanic rock has K2O/Na2O = 0.18-0.61 〈 1 and falls into a category of basalt of sodium system. The rocks contain enriched large-ion lithophile elements （LILE） （K, Rb, Ba, Th） and high-field strength elements （HFSE） （Nb, Ta, Ti, Zr, P）, with the magmatic material from the upper mantle. The intermediate-acidic volcanicrocks have σ = 1.91-2.96 〈 3.3, K2O/Na2O = 1.25-1.59 〉 1, as well as the enriched LILE and depleted HFSE （Nb, Ta, Ti, P）, presenting the same trace element compositions and characteristics as in the granitic rocks of South Tianshan Mt.; they are either shoshonitic igneous rocks or high-K calc-alkaline igneous rocks, with a distinct crust-derived component feature. The comprehensive analyses on the characteristics of the trace elements, the graphic tectonic discrimination, and the distribution features of the two types of igneous rocks show that they were formed under different tectonic settings and geodynamic environments： the basalt was formed in the active rifting period when the active mantle upwelling caused the thinning of lithosphere; the intermediateacidic volcanic-intrusive rock was formed in the island arc area of the active continental margin in North Tarim; the formation is associated with the plate subduction during the course of South Tianshan Ocean closure--the subduction of Middle Tianshan Mountain toward the Tarim plate. The basic and intermediate-acidic igneous rocks reveal a tectonic regime of extension-extrusion transition, which is significant in determining the key tectonic revolution period of North Tarim basin.展开更多

Therefore, shaly sands reservoir conductive model is the key to evaluate low resistivity oil(gas)-bearing reservoirs using logging information. Some defects were found when we studied the clay distribution type conductive model, dual-water conductive model, conductive rock matrix model, etc. Some models could not distinguish the conductive path and nature of microporosity water and clay water and some models did not consider the clay distribution type and the mount of clay volume. So, we utilize the merits,overcome the defects of the above models, and put forward a new shaly sands conductive model-dual water clay matrix conductive model (DWCMCM) in which dual water is the free water and the microporosity water in shaly sands and the clay matrix(wet clay) is the clay grain containing water. DWCMCM is presented here, the advantages of which can tell the nature and conductive path from different water (microporosity water and freewater), in consid-eration of the clay distribution type and the mount of clay volume in shaly sands. So, the results of logging interpretation in the oil(gas)-bearing reservoirs in the north of Tarim Basin area, China with DWCMCM are better than those interpreted by the above models.展开更多
