ABSTRACT
The origin of formation water
salinity variation in Chang 9 stratum, Jiyuan oilfield, Ordos basin
is studied here. 91 formation water samples show that water salinity
is characterized by a wide range and a complex plane distribution.
In order to find out the main cause of such distribution complexity
and reveal the relationship between formation water and evolution
of reservoir traps, core data, chemical analysis result of formation
water and log data are analyzed from perspectives of diagenesis
and tectonism. And then, their characteristics are presented as
the followings. In high salinity area, tuffaceous mudstone interlayer
is found growing. Besides, the condition of Na++K+ is
opposite to that of Ca2+, for its rate of concentration increase
slows down with total salinity accumulating. In low salinity area,
while, with fracture and faults developing, some formation water
of CaCl2 type
turns into MgCl2, NaHCO3 or
Na2SO4 type. The cause is thus proposed to
be composed of two aspects. One covers tuff alteration and later
diagenesis for the high salinity. To be specific, montmorillonite,
developed from tuff alteration, absorbs cation selectively and then
ions migrate, during which more Na++K+ get lost, while more Ca2+
reserved. Afterwards, those reserved Ca2+ get released with montmorillonite
transforming to illite, which results in a loss of Na++K+ and
accumulation of Ca2+. Lots of ions are released into formation
water during that process and later diagenetic process, which leads
to the high water salinity. The other aspect is the development
of faults and fractures, through which, the upper low salinity formation
water gets connected. And that is the main cause of low salinity.
At last, geological significance is discussed from two angles. Firstly,
tuff alteration and later diagenesis are pivotal to reservoir reconstruction;
and secondly, faults and fractures play an important role in oil
transportation and storage.

ABSTRAK
Asal usul variasi kemasinan
formasi air di Chang 9 Stratum, lapangan minyak Jiyuan di basin
Ordos dikaji. 91 sampel formasi air menunjukkan bahawa kemasinan
air dicirikan melalui julat yang besar dan satah yang kompleks.
Untuk mengetahui punca utama yang menyebabkan taburan kekompleksan
dan menunjukkan hubungan antara formasi air dan evolusi perangkap
empangan, data teras, keputusan analisis kimia daripada formasi
air dan data log dianalisis daripada perspektif diagnesis dan tektonisme.
Seterusnya, ciri berikut diberikan: Dalam kawasan kemasinan tinggi,
tuf antara lapisan batu lumpur dilihat berkembang. Di samping itu,
keadaan Na++K+ adalah
bertentangan dengan Ca2+ kerana tahap kenaikan kepekatan menurun
dengan pengumpulan jumlah kemasinan. Di kawasan kemasinan yang rendah
dengan retak dan sesar berkembang, sebahagian formasi air jenis
CaCl2 bertukar
menjadi jenis MgCl2, NaHCO3 atau
Na2SO4. Punca utama yang dicadangkan mengambil
kira dua aspek. Pertama ialah perubahan tuf dan diagnesis untuk
kemasinan tinggi. Untuk lebih tepat lagi, montmorilonit yang dibangunkan
daripada perubahan tuf memilih menyerap kation dan selepas itu migrasi
ion yang menunjukkan kehilangan Na++K+ yang
banyak manakala lebih banyak Ca2+ disimpan. Selepas itu, Ca2+
yang disimpan dibebaskan dengan montmorilonit berubah
menjadi batuan ilit dan mengakibatkan kehilangan Na++K+ dan
Ca2+ terkumpul. Proses ini telah menyebabkan banyak ion dibebaskan
dalam formasi air dan kemudian sewaktu proses diagenetik yang membawa
kepada tahap kemasinan air yang tinggi. Aspek yang kedua ialah perkembangan
sesar dan retak yang menyebabkan bahagian atas formasi air kemasinan
rendah berhubung. Ini adalah punca utama kemasinan yang rendah.
Akhirnya, kepentingan geologi dibincangkan daripada dua sudut. Pertama,
perubahan tuf dan kemudian diagenesis adalah penting untuk pembinaan
semula takungan dan kedua sesar dan retak yang memainkan peranan
penting dalam pengangkutan dan penyimpanan minyak.
