Abstract:

Explorations have proved that coal-bearing series and related mudstone of Enping Formation (Early Oligocene) are the main hydrocarbon source rock in Baiyun Sag,Pearl River Mouth Basin.According to seismic profiles and well data,there is a large pro-graded delta in the north of Baiyun Sag in Early Oligocene,which can be divided into three stages.The Rare Earth Element study shows that most of the 1st stage delta’s source rocks are sedimentary rock,which comes from Panyu low-uplift by braided rivers;because of the effect of peneplanation,Enping Sag and Baiyun Sag are connected by meandering rivers,and source rocks of the last stage delta is mostly granite,which is distributed to the north of Enping Sag.The increasing area of provenance and catchment causes the increasing supplementation of the delta,while it is one of the crucial reasons that the pro-graded delta can develop and extend bigger and wider constantly.Composition of sandstone has a critical influence on the quality of the deep-burial reservoirs,and feldspathic-rich sandstone in Baiyun Sag gets great dissolution potential to develop much more secondary porosity.upper Enping Formation in north of Baiyun Sag could be great exploration target in which channels,bars and other kinds of sandstones of delta are all great potential reservoirs.

Key words: Provenance analysis, Baiyun Sag, Enping Formation, Sedimentary evolution, Deep-burial reservoirs
