Depositional conditions at the Aptian pre-salt margins: evidence from quantitative petrography and textural analysis of the Mucuri Member, Espírito Santo Basin, Brazil
Aptian siliciclastic onshore deposits of the Mucuri Member are important reservoirs in the Espírito Santo Basin (eastern Brazil). A detailed quantitative petrographical and textural analysis of well core samples was performed in order to unravel their depositional processes and conditions, in relation to previously proposed depositional models. The results allowed differentiation between two groups of sandstone samples, characterized by different textural characteristics associated to different depositional processes and environments within the Mucuri depositional system. Fluvial sandstones are represented by medium- to coarse-grained, poorly sorted arkoses, rich in plutonic rock fragments and feldspar grains, mainly transported by traction. Coastal-lacustrine sandstones correspond to very fine- to fine-grained, moderately sorted micaceous arkoses, mainly transported in suspension. The application of a discriminant function based on grain-size parameters validated previously proposed depositional settings for the studied sample groups. The combination of grain-size and shape data revealed differences in hydraulic equivalence and shape between grains from different depositional settings. In terms of hydraulic equivalence, micas in the fluvial sediments present lower settling velocity values, in contrast to the relatively large mica grains in the coastal sediments, which are hydraulically equivalent with the associated quartz and feldspar grains. The results of this study provide key information regarding depositional conditions (transportation mechanisms, grain-settling velocity and mineral hydraulic fractionation) at the margins of the Aptian pre-salt system, which can constrain the hydrological conditions and the sediment type available for distal lacustrine areas.
期刊介绍:
Petroleum Geoscience is the international journal of geoenergy and applied earth science, and is co-owned by the Geological Society of London and the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE).
Petroleum Geoscience transcends disciplinary boundaries and publishes a balanced mix of articles covering exploration, exploitation, appraisal, development and enhancement of sub-surface hydrocarbon resources and carbon repositories. The integration of disciplines in an applied context, whether for fluid production, carbon storage or related geoenergy applications, is a particular strength of the journal. Articles on enhancing exploration efficiency, lowering technological and environmental risk, and improving hydrocarbon recovery communicate the latest developments in sub-surface geoscience to a wide readership.
Petroleum Geoscience provides a multidisciplinary forum for those engaged in the science and technology of the rock-related sub-surface disciplines. The journal reaches some 8000 individual subscribers, and a further 1100 institutional subscriptions provide global access to readers including geologists, geophysicists, petroleum and reservoir engineers, petrophysicists and geochemists in both academia and industry. The journal aims to share knowledge of reservoir geoscience and to reflect the international nature of its development.
