Abstract
Shale in the Jurassic Lianggaoshan Formation in central Sichuan exhibits strong heterogeneity. The study of the pore structure characteristics of different lithologies is crucial to the selection of the target interval. Shale samples of the Lianggaoshan Formation from well YS5 in the central part of the Sichuan Basin were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, high-pressure mercury injection (HPMI), and large -field splicing method -based scanning electron microscopy (LFS-SEM) to elucidate the pore structure characteristics of shale and their influencing factors. The mineral composition of the reservoir in the study area was diverse, primarily consisting of clay minerals, followed by quartz and calcite. The reservoir space comprised intergranular, granular, and organic matter pores, and oil was observed to fill the reservoir space. Reservoir characteristics varied with the lithological properties. In clayey shale, intergranular pores located in clay mineral particles and pores between pyrite and natural fractures were mainly observed, with a bimodal distribution of pore size and peak distribution of 10–50 nm and >100 nm. The storage space of ash-bearing shale mainly consisted of intragranular pores and intergranular (crystalline) micropores, with pore sizes primarily concentrated in the 10–50 nm range. The storage space in silty shale mainly developed in clastic mineral particles such as quartz, followed by clay mineral intergranular pores with a relatively wide distribution of sizes. Pores were mainly inkbottle-shaped and slit-type/plate-type pores, with an average specific surface area of approximately 6.9046 m2·g−1 and an average pore volume of approximately 0.0150 cm3·g−1. The full-pore capillary pressure curve was established using a combination of gas adsorption–desorption tests and HPMI. The fractal dimension of the sample pore structure was calculated, and a significant linear correlation was found between clay mineral content and the fractal dimension. Thus, the pore structure characteristics were mainly controlled by the content and distribution of clay minerals.
