Summary: | By dissecting thirty-six representative oil-gas reservoirs and analyzing accumulation conditions of giant oil and gas provinces in four prototype basins, including the Songliao Rift and Depression Basin, the Mesozoic Ordos Depression Basin, the Bohai Bay Rift and Depression Basin, the Mesozoic Junggar Depression Basin, the West Sichuan Foreland Basin and the Tarim Craton Basin, the hydrocarbon plays classification scheme of lithologic reservoirs is established and improved from the perspective of oil-gas accumulation zone and exploration target. The results reveal the accumulation characteristics and controlling factors of lithologic reservoirs including three kinds of slopes, three kinds of sag centers, three kinds of hydrocarbon accumulation assemblages and multiple genetic types. Based on the understandings on reservoir formation mechanisms and enrichment regularities of different hydrocarbon provinces, six major assessment indexes, parameter system and grading standard of lithologic plays are established, including hydrocarbon source rock condition, transportation pathway, reservoir condition, reservoir-cap assemblage, fluid property, and time-space configuration etc. Through comprehensive analysis of burial history, hydrocarbon-generation history, digenesis history, tectonic history, trap-forming history and accumulation history, plays of lithologic reservoirs are evaluated and optimized. The results show that the middle-shallow layers in the slope zones of the Songliao and Bohai Bay Basins oil-rich sags, the Mesozoic in the Ordos Basin, the Permian-Jurassic in the Junggar Basin, etc. are the major oil exploration areas in the future, with oil resources of about 42×108 t–67×108 t; the deep volcanic rocks of the Songliao Basin, the Carboniferous of the Junggar Basin, the Cambrian of the Tarim and Sichuan Basins, the Permian-Triassic reefs and shoals within the platform and on the platform margin of the Sichuan Basin are the major gas exploration areas in the future, with gas resources of about 1.5×1012 m3−2.0×1012 m3.
