Sedimentary environment constraints on the diagenetic evolution of clastic reservoirs: Examples from the Eocene “red-bed” and “gray-bed” in the Dongying Depression, China.
【Abstract】
The diagenetic characteristics and differences between the Eocene red-bed sandstone deposited in an arid environment and gray-bed sandstone deposited in a relatively humid environment were investigated systemat-ically by an integrated analysis of petrography, X-ray diffraction, carbon and oxygen stable isotopes and fluid inclusion microthermometry. Strong eodiagenetic calcite and gypsum/anhydrite cementation occurred at the boundary of the Eocene red-bed sandstone, while the centre of the red-bed sandstone was characterized by relatively strong quartz dissolution and weak mesodiagenetic feldspar dissolution and ferro-carbonate cemen-tation. Eodiagenetic calcite cementation at the boundary of the gray-bed sandstone and quartz dissolution were relatively weak, while the carbonate cemented zone at the boundary of the gray-bed sandstone was strengthened by mesodiagenetic ferro-carbonate cement. Relatively strong feldspar dissolution and ferro-carbonate cemen-tation occurred in the centre of gray-bed sandstone beds. By comparing the diagenetic differences between the red-bed sandstones and gray-bed sandstones, it is shown that sedimentary environment had an obvious influence on reservoir diagenetic evolution and reservoir properties through influencing the chemical properties of connate water, the transformation rate and degree of clay minerals in interbedded mudstone, and the properties of diagenetic fluids during burial process.
