Gas-Bearing Characteristics of the Longmaxi Formation Shale in the Changning Area, Southern Sichuan Basin, SW China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The Changning area, located in the south of the Sichuan Basin, has obtained commercial shale gas from the Silurian Longmaxi Formation, which is characterized by rich organic matter, large hydrocarbon generation, and high gas content.

Wave velocity in shale in the Wufeng-Longmaxi formation in Sichuan Basin

Journal of Geophysics and Engineering, 2022
Abstract Analyzing the pattern of wave velocity is important for velocity prediction and amplitude-versus-offset analysis during unconventional seismic exploration. Several parameters, including the maturity and microstructure of organic matter (OM), the wave velocity, the mineral composition and the density of shale from Upper ...

Organic Matter of the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation Shales Using Scanning Electron Microscopy

Sustainability, 2023
Fine-grained organic matter (OM) particles are commonly widely dispersed in shale deposits. However, carrying out investigations of pores hosted by OM particles and the nature of grain interactions in OM particles and associated detrital grains using optical microscopy is difficult at best.
