Recently, China Petroleum Xinjiang oilfield announced that the seismic exploration technology for volcanic oil and gas reservoirs has been a major breakthrough. In the Junggar basin, 1.7 million tons of oil reserves and 41 billion 600 million cubic meters of natural gas reserves have been added to the volcanic rocks.
This is the discovery of the 10 million ton conglomerate field from the Ma Hu area of Xinjiang oilfield. It has become another major oil and gas discovery after the first largest conglomerate oilfield in the world.

You don't know the Xinjiang oil field yet?
Xinjiang oilfield is located in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Zhungeer basin, Northwest China. It is said that some people in Xinjiang oilfield are strangers, but many people will wake up when talking about the main oil fields of Xinjiang oilfield.
The main oilfield in Xinjiang oilfield is the first major oil fields discovered after the founding of new China, Karamay oilfield. It was discovered in 1955 that mining history lasted for 60 years. Crude oil production ranks fourth in China's land oil field, and has maintained steady growth for 25 consecutive years, accumulatively producing more than 200 million tons.
Last year, Xinjiang Oil Field Co discovered 10 million tonnes of Ma Hu conglomerate oil area in the central area of Ma Hu depression, Junggar basin. “ Ma Hu large oil area has found three class petroleum geological reserves of 12.4 million tons, of which proven reserves of more than 500 million tons. This is equivalent to remaking a Karamay oil field. ” general geologist of the Xinjiang Oil Field Co, Zhi Dong Ming.

Recently, a great discovery! In the Junggar basin, the new proven petroleum geological reserves of 1.7 million tons and the natural gas geological reserves of 41 billion 600 million cubic meters have been achieved.
The data show that the Junggar basin is rich in oil and gas resources, the total oil resources are 86 million tons, the total natural gas resources are 2 trillion and 100 billion cubic meters, the total oil and gas resources are 103 million tons, and the total amount of oil and gas resources in China is more than 100 million tons in the three big basins. The area of large and medium oil and gas fields.
What about the volcanic oil and gas reservoirs?
Generally speaking, rocks are divided into three major categories: volcanic rocks, sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks. The current conventional oil and even shale oil are extracted from the sedimentary rocks, and the volcanic rocks are considered rocks that can not be oil and can not be stored. The American scientists even have “ the igneous rock is the forbidden area of oil and gas exploration ” On the point of view.
Domestic volcanic reservoirs have always been difficult to find, difficult to control and more difficult to develop. The volcanic rocks in the Junggar basin are deep buried, complex structural changes and serious erosion. Compared with the well preserved volcanic rock formations in the eastern Mesozoic Cenozoic basins, the seismic data of the volcanic rocks are worse, and the difficulty of seismic exploration is more difficult.
In 2005, the deep study of the basement of the Junggar Basin in Xinjiang oilfield suggested that the Carboniferous volcanic rocks have great potential for oil and gas exploration.
Therefore, the eastern geophysical prospecting and Xinjiang oilfield formed a joint research team in 2006. In view of the technical difficulties and targets of the volcanic oil and gas seismic exploration in the Junggar basin, after more than 10 years of technological breakthrough, the complex structural seismic imaging technology and software system (CVPS and ACQA), and the fine engraving technology of volcanic oil and gas reservoirs have been formed. The 3 key technologies of the new concept of volcanic oil and gas reservoir have broken through the forbidden area of volcanic oil exploration and gas exploration on the traditional concept.
What is the potential of the Xinjiang oil field?

As far as volcanic oil and gas resources are concerned, the volcanic oil and gas resources in Xinjiang are also the richest in the country: the amount of petroleum resources in the Carboniferous system of the three Santanghu basin is as high as 7.54 million tons, the Carboniferous petroleum resources of the Turpan Hami basin are 5.47 million tons, and the natural gas resources of the volcanic rocks in the Junggar basin are over 1 trillion cubic meters. The amount of resources has reached 22 million tons!
But this is not the whole of the Xinjiang oil field!
As the main force of PetroChina to promote &ldquo and &rdquo of the 50 million ton oil and gas equivalent production project in Xinjiang area, the output of Xinjiang crude oil in 2018 was 11 million 450 thousand tons. On the basis of over three years of continuous production, this year's net growth is 250 thousand tons over the previous year.
After the lake, the whole Xinjiang oil field has been hung up.
From the next ten days of 2, the oil and gas exploration test &ldquo of the Xinjiang oilfield has been launched, and the spring thunder action ” it has obtained four major achievements in the Ma Hu, the red car fault zone, the Fudong slope and the drop South uplift, which has obtained the new discovery of high efficiency exploration, expanded the new scene of the scale of the reservoir, and opened up a new field of scale construction.
The discovery of the lower Permian lower reaches in the Ma Hu area has made significant discoveries. A breakthrough was made in the two section of the lower formation in the lower ohe formation, which was carried out by the opening and deployment of the Dabason protruding large formation tip destruction zone. After the Triassic hundred mouth spring formation and the Permian strata of the Wu Er he formation, another important succession layer was discovered and a new scene of scale exploration was opened up.
The effective exploration of the Jiamu River formation of the Permian in the red car fault zone has made significant discoveries. Che Pai 18 well has obtained high-yield industrial oil flow, expanding the new exploration field of medium and shallow layer.
New progress has been made in precise exploration of Jurassic lithologic reservoirs in Fudong slope. Based on high density three-dimensional, deepening research and understanding, tackling the difficult problem of identifying sand body in oily river channel, the unfractured well of Fuji 32 has been carried out to obtain high production industrial oil flow, which shows a good prospect for efficient exploration of channel type lithologic reservoir.
@ the central trough of the south of the droplet zone has made significant breakthroughs in natural gas exploration. The well implemented offensive evaluation well, well Kemei 002, obtained high yield industrial airflow in the Carboniferous pine and Keer Su group, and opened up a new field of natural gas scale construction.
By the end of May, the daily production level of crude oil in Xinjiang oilfield has reached 30684 tons. By the end of June, the daily production level of Xinjiang oil field is more than 32000 tons, in order to achieve the established production target.
Xinjiang oilfield, how much potential, how much surprise can be given to people, we can only wait and see!
