西非宽扎盆地盐下白垩系湖相碳酸盐岩勘探方向
The exploration direction of the Cretaceous pre-salt lacustrine carbonate rocks in the Kwanza Basin,Western Africa
摘要
Abstract
Kwanza Basin,located in Angola and its adjacent offshore area along the West African coast,is a typical passive continental margin salt-bearing basin.It comprises three major structural layers:pre-salt structural layer,salt structural layer,and suprasalt structural layer.The pre-salt Cretaceous lacustrine carbonate rocks represent the primary target for hydrocarbon exploration in the basin.The pre-salt structural layer exhibits a tectonic pattern of alternating depressions and uplifts,which can be divided into the Inner Rift Zone,Central Uplift Zone,and Outer Rift Zone from east to west.The hydrocarbon accumulation mechanism in pre-salt lacustrine carbonate rocks is characterized by"rift-controlled source rocks,uplift-controlled reservoirs,salt-controlled seals,and high-quality reservoirs controlling accumulation".The Central Uplift Zone,with well-developed basement uplifts,not only facilitates trap formation and carbonate reservoir development but also serves as the migration pathway for hydrocarbons,making it the most favorable area for pre-salt Cretaceous carbonate reservoir accumulation.The presence of high-quality reservoirs is critical for successful exploration.Based on newly acquired seismic and drilling data,this study investigates the factors influencing the differential distribution of pre-salt lacustrine carbonate reservoirs.The analysis further narrows down the prospective exploration areas for subsalt hydrocarbon plays in the Kwanza Basin to the northern part of the Central Uplift Zone,providing guidance for regional evaluation and exploration target selection.关键词
