Overview

Analyzes organic pore characteristics in shale formations influenced by astronomical cycles, highlighting implications for resource storage.

Key Points

  • The study aims to investigate the characteristics and controlling factors of organic pores in shale reservoirs influenced by astronomical cycles.
  • Conducted mineral analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for pore characterization.
  • Utilized cyclical stratigraphy to analyze sedimentary combinations of organic and inorganic matter.
  • Examined organic pore types based on the hosting state of organic matter.
  • Identified four types of organic pores based on different hosting states of organic matter.
  • Overall pore size ranges from 9.12 to 594.78 nm, with porosity between 2.01% and 46.34%.
  • Organic pores associated with rigid minerals and clay minerals developed the best in the formations.
  • The distribution of organic matter and pore types varies with depth, indicating a trend in composition.
