Abstract

Seepage characteristics of reservoir rocks are important factors affecting the effect of tight oil and gas production. Therefore the pore structure of tight sandstone from Dong 6 well in 4 block of the central Dzungaria Basin were studied by mercury injection experiment, and the seepage characteristics of tight sandstone were comprehensively studied by stress sensitivity experiment. The results show that: the pore throat distribution of the tight sandstone in the study area is not uniform, but the sorting property is good. The pore throat which promotes the permeability is mainly distributed near the threshold pressure of mercury injection experiment. The stress sensitivity of tight sandstone is affected by stress state and pore structure. Stress sensitivity is negatively correlated with confining pressure, and permeability loss is negatively correlated with pore throat radius.
