Types of Void Space in the Bazhenov Reservoir Rocks

The deposits of the Bazhenov formation are a unique reservoir unconventional oil reserves in Western Siberia. They contain both solid organic matter (kerogen) and liquid light oil. successful development these hydrocarbons is largely determined by adequacy void space models. aim study to identify types sediments distribution patterns across section researched wells. was studied electron optical microscopy, mineral composition rocks X-ray diffraction analysis. productive territory Siberia represented wide complex lithotypes, including various kinds silicites, carbonate, clay rocks, mixtites. hierarchically subordinated system, which includes voids fractures sizes, configurations, genesis. characterized fairly high degree spatial heterogeneity, controlled lithological, facies, tectonic factors, as well direction catagenetic processes.
