Sinopec Announces Major Gas Field Discovery in Sichuan Basin, China
- Discovery of significant natural gas reserves in Bazhong gas field
- Favorable potential of tight sandstone in northeast Sichuan
- None.
A key breakthrough of Project Deep Earth-Sichuan and
The Bazhong gas field is the third Xujiahe Formation tight sandstone gas field discovered by Sinopec in the region. As of now, Sinopec has submitted a total of 154,747 million cubic meters of proven geological reserves of tight sandstone gas in the region.
The sandstone gas reserve with a burial depth of over 4,500 meters is defined as an ultra-deep, tight sandstone gas reservoir, and the burial depth of the Bazhong gas field ranges from 4,550 to 5,225 meters, which is a challenge for exploration and development. Sinopec has innovated three types of high-quality reservoir and permeability development models to clarify natural gas enrichment and high-yield production models, established reservoir prediction technique sequences, and implemented enriched high-yield zones.
Next, Sinopec will continue to tackle the geological evaluation and engineering process of the tight sandstone shale gas reserves in the
