To identify the factors controlling high-quality deep shale gas reservoirs and the exploration
and development potential of the Lower Paleozoic marine shale in the Sichuan Basin, the …

Deep shale has the characteristics of large burial depth, rapid changes in reservoir
properties, complex pore types and structures, and unstable production. The whole-rock X …

Abstract The Lower Paleozoic Ordovician Wufeng Formation and the Silurian Longmaxi
Formation shale in the southeastern part of Sichuan Basin in China are the key strata for …

The pore structure is an important factor affecting reservoir capacity and shale gas
production. The shale reservoir of the Longmaxi Formation in the Changning area, Southern …

In complex geological areas, the chronology of tectonic fracture formation is pivotal for the
conservation and enhancement of shale gas reservoirs. These fractures, evolving over …

Continental shale gas enrichment is significantly influenced by pore structure, yet research
on this topic remains limited compared to marine shale. This study investigates the complex …

There are many natural fractures in the shale reservoir, and the degree of fracture
development directly determines the reservoir quality and production of the shale gas …

The deep shale gas reservoirs of the Wufeng-Longmaxi Formations in the southern Sichuan
Basin have strong heterogeneity and complex geological characteristics, resulting in a poor …

Hydraulic fracturing has completely revolutionized how shale resources are exploited to
extracthydrocarbons. However, sustainability and environmental issues have fueled the …

The southern margin of the Sichuan Basin is characterized by strong structural deformation,
complex fault structure styles and scales, and multistaged geological evolution stages …
