Stratigraphic framework and sedimentary evolution of the Lower Cambrian Niutitang Formation shale in western Hubei Province
摘要
Abstract
The shale of the Lower Cambrian Niutitang Formation is an important hydrocarbon source rock in the Middle and Upper Yangtze region.However,significant inconsistencies remain regarding the stratigraphic division and framework establishment of the Niutitang Formation in the Middle and Upper Yangtze region.Moreover,sequence stratigraphic studies focused specifically on the Niutitang shale are still limited.In this study,the stratigraphic framework and sedimentary evolution of the Lower Cambrian Niutitang shale in western Hubei Province were systematically analyzed using an integrated approach incor-porating field outcrop observations,drilling core data,conventional and spectral logs,and geochemical proxies.Two third-order sequences are recognized within the Niutitang Formation shale in western Hubei Province.The first(Niu 1 Member)and second(Niu 2 Member)members each constitute a third-or-der sequence composed of a Transgressive Systems Tract(TST)and a Highstand Systems Tract(HST).Sequence stratigraphic correlation enabled the reconstruction of depositional environments and relative sea-level fluctuations,revealing four evolutionary phases during the Early Cambrian:a fluctuating transgress-ive stage,a fluctuating regressive stage,a rapid transgression,and a gradual regression.A comprehen-sive depositional model for the Niutitang shale is established,providing a theoretical foundation for predicting favorable reservoir intervals and guiding future shale gas exploration in the Central and Upper Yangtze region.关键词
