- Abstract
Yinger (营尔) sag is the main petroleum generative sag in eastern Jiuquan (酒泉) Basin, and only the Changshaling (长沙岭) oil resource has been found after 60 years prospecting. Changshaling anticline crest zone was formed above the regional uplift, and was slightly affected by over thrust during Tertiary Period. The anticline crest was identified as a structural transposition zone. Based on analysis of seismic facies, logging facies and seismic inversion technique, it has been demonstrated that anticline crest zone conducts drainage entering basin and dominates sedimentary detritus further dispersing, and the anticline crest zone controls the distribution of sand bodies and the development of sedimentary system consequently. The sequence stratigraphic patterns of multi-step fault belt in Member 3 of Xiagou (下沟) Formation in Lower Cretaceous in the anticline crest zone is composed of the development of sedimentary facies in plan and distribution of multi-step fault belt sand bodies in spatial. This research investigates the sand-control models and sequence patterns, and finally a model of reservoirs in anticline crest zone is identified.
