description | Overpressure is an important phenomenon observed in sedimentary basins. To enhance the precision of identifying the origin of overpressure and predicting it accurately, this paper presents four practical methods for analyzing formation overpressure, taking into account various factors, such as burial history, rock properties, mechanical models and data quality. By illustrating the application examples in typical basins, this paper demonstrates the practicality and potential of each model. Based on the analysis of organic matter content and denudation, our understanding of the origin of overpressure in the first member of the Cretaceous Qingshankou Formation in Songliao Basin has been revised. A novel model based on the static equilibrium equation was established, which not only demonstrates theoretical rationality but also exhibits practical advantages in the Junggar Basin and Southeast Hainan Basin. The incorporation of lateral loading in the correction model and the utilization of colored inversion in seismic velocity processing model have significantly enhanced pressure prediction accuracy in Junggar Basin and Southeast Hainan Basin, respectively. In conclusion, these correction models demonstrate a high level of reliability and possess significant potential for widespread adoption. |
