Abstract
Ordos Basin is the second largest sedimentary basin in China with very rich oil and gas resources. The exploration targets are typical reservoirs of low permeability. To determine the accumulation mechanism of tight sandstone reservoir, thin section, SEM, numerical calculation were used. The result showed that sandstone should be ultro-low permeability reservoirs with the high content feldspar and lithic arkose or feldspathic litharenite. The reservoir became tight while oil filling, buoyant force is too small to overcome the resistance of capillary force. Therefore, overpressure induced by source rock generation is the accumulation drive force.
