Abstract

Low-permeability sandstone reservoirs in the Triassic Chang 1+2 oil reservoirs are widely developed in the Mahuangshan-Buziwan area in the central and western Ordos Basin, with great potential for hydrocarbon exploration. However, the hydrocarbon accumulation conditions and main controlling factors remain unclear. To address this, an analysis of hydrocarbon accumulation conditions and the main controlling factors of oil reservoir enrichment was conducted based on core samples, cast thin sections, and logging data. The results show that The oil source for the Chang 1+2 reservoirs in the study area is the Chang 7 deep-lacustrine mud-shale. Hydrocarbons migrate through faults and multi-phase superimposed sand bodies. Unconformities, low-amplitude nose structures, dominant facies belts, and lithological properties are the key factors controlling the enrichment of the Chang 1+2 reservoirs. Under the blocking effect of unconformities and low-amplitude nose structures, the reservoirs continue to migrate towards the southeast, with the richest hydrocarbons in areas with dominant facies belt and lithological properties. The reservoirs have the characteristics of "unconformity blocking, sandbody-fault guidance, nose-controlled reservoirs, and lithological control of enrichment". The research provides a theoretical basis for predicting low-permeability reservoirs in the area.
