Abstract:
Low efficiency gas reservoirs as a relative definition refer to a new kind of gas reservoir that is widely occurred in China,and characterized by low porosity,low permeability,low abundance and low deliverability.The resources distribution of low efficiency gas reservoirs is summarized after the systematic analysis of their basic characteristics.The geological characteristics of this new type of gas reservoirs are put forward in terms of trap,sedimentation and rock formation types.The geological factors resulting in low efficiency of natural gas pay zones are discussed with expectation to form the basis of further study of major controlling factors such as the formations of low efficiency gas reservoirs in China and the corresponding geological model establishments.
