Structures evolution along strike-slip fault zones: The role of rheology revealed by PIV analysis of analog modeling

Marilia Barbosa Venancio et al.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of rheology on the nucleation and evolution of strike-slip structures, and its impact on the structural architecture. Analog experiments were conducted using materials with different rheological behavior, and their properties were measured. The results showed that rheological properties control the deformation zone architecture, fracture and fault arrangement, and the localization of contractional and extensional domains.

Linkage and formation of strike-slip faults in deep basins and the implications for petroleum accumulation: A case study from the Shunbei area of the Tarim Basin, China

Yin Liu et al.

Summary: This study investigates the linkage processes and formation mechanism of strike-slip faults in the Shunbei area of the Tarim Basin using newly acquired three-dimensional seismic data. It is found that the SB-1 and SB-5 faults are strike-slip faults with superimposed flower structures. The main activities of these faults occurred in the Middle and Late Ordovician, and the linkage underwent two phases, eventually forming overstepped zones and complex internal architectures.

Control of faults and fractures on shale oil enrichment

Xiaofei Fu et al.

Summary: This study aims to understand the controlling factors of shale oil enrichment in the Qingshankou Formation in the Songliao Basin, with a focus on the role of faults and fractures. Fault geometry was identified through seismic interpretation, while natural fractures were characterized through field and laboratory observations. The integration of fault and fracture observations, tectonic and burial history, allowed for an explanation of the control of faults and fractures on shale oil enrichment. The results show that high-density fault systems were developed at the top and bottom of the Qingshankou Formation, and different types of fractures were identified. The study also highlights the importance of tectonic uplift and the role of fractures in enhancing oil production and connectivity.

Natural fractures and their contribution to tight gas conglomerate reservoirs: A case study in the northwestern Sichuan Basin, China

Lianbo Zeng et al.

Summary: Well-developed natural fractures in the tight gas conglomerate reservoirs of the northwestern Sichuan Basin greatly contribute to porosity and permeability, serving as storage space and fluid flow conduits. Open fractures make up over 70% of porosity, with local permeability 3-5 orders higher than matrix reservoirs. Natural fracture intensity correlates significantly with natural gas productivity, with fracture orientation impacting productivity.

Control of mechanical stratigraphy on the stratified style of strike-slip faults in the central Tarim Craton, NW China

Jiajun Chen et al.

Summary: This study investigates the role of mechanical stratigraphy in intracratonic strike-slip environments using the large-scale but small-displacement strike-slip faults in the Shunbei region of the Tarim Basin in NW China. The results show that mechanical stratigraphy controls the faulting style and pre-existing structures promote the formation of narrow and localized fault zones. The proposed deformation model provides mechanical support for characterizing deeply buried structures.

In situ LA-ICPMS U-Pb dating and geochemical characterization of fault-zone calcite in the central Tarim Basin, northwest China: Implications for fluid circulation and fault reactivation

Peng Yang et al.

Summary: The study provides evidence of at least six generations of secondary calcite precipitations and multi-stage fluid circulation in the Central Uplift of the Tarim Basin. This suggests episodical reactivation in the central fault zone during the Paleozoic, which has implications for hydrocarbon exploration.

Early Neoproterozoic (870-820 Ma) amalgamation of the Tarim craton (northwestern China) and the final assembly of Rodinia

Pan Zhao et al.

Summary: Research on the paleogeographic configuration of the Neoproterozoic supercontinent of Rodinia suggests that the Tarim craton in northwestern China had a -28 degrees latitudinal difference with the South Tarim block around 900 Ma, and the amalgamation of the Tarim craton is estimated to have occurred between 870 and 820 Ma. The study supports a two-stage orogenic model for the assembly of Rodinia.

New insights on the geometry and kinematics of the Shunbei 5 strike-slip fault in the central Tarim Basin, China

Qingqing Sun et al.

Summary: Integrated geological-geophysical methods were used to study the geometric characteristics and kinematic evolution of the Shunbei 5 (SB5) and adjacent Shunbei 1 (SB1) strike-slip faults in the central Tarim Basin, China. The results revealed the initial segmentation, interaction, and polycyclic growth of the fault zones, as well as the formation of favorable fracture-related reservoirs in the study area. The study also identified four major tectonic phases matching the kinematic evolutions of regional fault systems and uplifts in the region, providing insights into the structural evolution of the area.
