This study collected the lacustrine shales from the Palaeogene Funing Formation in the Gaoyou Sag, Subei Basin. Conventional and multistage Rock-Eval, scanning electron microscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) <em>T</em><sub>1</sub>–<em>T</em><sub>2</sub> were performed to analyze the contents and occurrence characteristics of shale oil. Low-temperature nitrogen adsorption-desorption (LTNA/D) experiments were conducted on the shales before and after extraction. The relationships between shale oil occurrence with organic matter and pore structures were then discussed. Predominantly, the shale oil in the Funing Formation is found within fractures, with secondary occurrences in interparticle pores linked to brittle minerals and sizeable intraparticle pores associated with clay minerals. The selected shales can be categorized into two types based on the nitrogen isotherms. Type A shales are characterized by high contents of felsic and calcareous minerals but low clay minerals, with larger TOC and shale oil values. Conversely, Type B shales are marked by abundant clay minerals but diminished TOC and shale oil contents. The lower BET specific surface area (SSA), larger average pore diameter, and simpler pore surfaces and pore structures lead to the Type A shales being more conducive to shale oil enrichment and mobility. Shale oil content is predominantly governed by the abundance of organic matter, while an overabundance of organic matter typically equates to a reduced ratio of free oil and diminished fluidity. The BET SSA, volumes of pores less than 25 and 100 nm at extracted state all correlate negatively with total and adsorbed oil contents but display no correlation with free oil, while they have positive relationships with capillary-bound water. Consequently, pore water is mainly saturated in micropores (&lt;25 nm) and minipores (25–100 nm), as well as adsorbed oil, while free oil, i.e., bound and movable oil, primarily exists in mesopores (100–1000 nm) and macropores (&gt;1000 nm). These findings may enhance the understanding of the microscopic occurrence characteristics of shale oil and will contribute to guide resource estimation and shale oil sweet spot exploitation in the Gaoyou Sag, Subei Basin.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19938,"journal":{"name":"Petroleum Science","volume":"22 1","pages":"Pages 55-75"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143137218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional methods for estimating these stress orientations often depend on focal mechanism solutions (FMSs) derived from earthquake data and formation micro-imager (FMI) data from well logs. However, these techniques can be costly, depth-inaccurate, and may lack spatial coverage. To address this issue, we introduce the use of three-dimensional (3D) seismic data (active sources) as a lateral constraint to approximate the 3D stress orientation field. Recognizing that both stress and fracture patterns are closely related to seismic velocity anisotropy, we derive the orientation of azimuthal anisotropy from multi-azimuth 3D seismic data to compensate for the lack of spatial stress orientation information. We apply our proposed workflow to a case study in the Weiyuan area of the Sichuan Basin, China, a region targeted for shale gas production. By integrating diverse datasets, including 3D seismic, earthquakes, and well logs, we develop a comprehensive 3D model of in-situ stress (orientations and magnitudes). Our results demonstrate that the estimated anisotropy orientations from 3D seismic data are consistent with the direction of maximum horizontal principal stress (SHmax) obtained from FMIs. We analyzed 12 earthquakes (magnitude &gt; 3) recorded between 2016 and 2020 for their FMSs and compressional axis (P-axis) orientations. The derived SHmax direction from our 3D stress model is 110° ES (East-South), which shows excellent agreement with the FMSs (within 3.96°). This close alignment validates the reliability and precision of our integrated method for predicting 3D SHmax orientations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19938,"journal":{"name":"Petroleum Science","volume":"22 1","pages":"Pages 210-221"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141850181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, wellbore instability, caused by the invasion of drilling fluids into shale formations, remains a significant challenge for the safe and efficient extraction of shale oil and gas. This work reports the preparation of mesoporous SiO<sub>2</sub> nanoparticles with low surface energy, utilized as multifunctional agents to enhance the performance of oil-based drilling fluids aimed at improving wellbore stability. The results indicate that the coating prepared from these nanoparticles exhibit excellent hydrophobicity and antifouling properties, increasing the water contact angle from 32° to 146° and oil contact angle from 24° to 134.8°. Additionally, these nanoparticles exhibit exceptional chemical stability and thermal resistance. Incorporating these nanoparticles into oil-based drilling fluids reduced the surface energy of the mud cake from 34.99 to 8.17 mJ·m<sup>−2</sup> and increased the roughness of shale from 0.26 to 2.39 μm. These modifications rendered the mud cake and shale surfaces amphiphobic, effectively mitigating capillary infiltration and delaying the long-term strength degradation of shale in oil-based drilling fluids. After 28 days of immersion in oil-based drilling fluid, shale cores treated with MF-SiO<sub>2</sub> exhibited a 30.5% increase in compressive strength compared to untreated cores. Additionally, these nanoparticles demonstrated the ability to penetrate and seal rock pores, reducing the API filtration volume of the drilling fluid from 11.2 to 7.6 mL.

However, because of their variety and the complexity of the factors that affect them, their spatial prediction by the industrial community becomes challenging. Based on sample cores, thin sections, and well-logging and seismic data, this study employed a multi-scale data matching approach to quantitatively predict the development of bedding-parallel fractures and investigate their spatial distribution. Bedding-parallel fractures in the Lucaogou Formation in Jimusar Sag frequently occur along preexisting bedding planes and lithological interfaces. Unfilled bedding-parallel fractures inside or near source-rocks exhibit enhanced oil-bearing capacity. They were identified on micro-resistivity scanning images by the presence of regularly continuous black or nearly black sinusoidal curves. Overall, the developmental degree of bedding-parallel fractures was positively related to the brittle mineral and total organic carbon contents and negatively related to single reservoir interval thickness. The maintained porosity of the reservoir matrix contributed to a thorough response to factors affecting the development of bedding-parallel fractures. Here, an effective and objective method was proposed for predicting the development and distribution of bedding-parallel fractures in the fine-grained sedimentary rocks. The method was based on the matched reservoir interval density, reservoir interval density, and matched sweet spot density of bedding-parallel fractures. The prediction method integrated the significant advantages of high vertical resolution from logging curves and strong lateral continuity from seismic data. The average relative prediction error was 8% in the upper sweet spot in the Lucaogou Formation, indicating that the evaluation parameters for bedding-parallel fractures in fine-grained sedimentary rocks were reasonable and reliable and that the proposed prediction method has a stronger adaptability than the previously reported methods.
