Abstract:

Electrical resistivity imaging (ERI) is an effective tool to prospect biogenic gas in shallow layer.In this paper,we illustrate the applications of ERI to compartmentalize lithologies and recognize the Quaternary strata structure,distinguish reservoirs and biogenic gas layers based on the surveying results obtained in Nantong area.The research indicates that the resistivity section with ERI in Nantong area can perfectly recognize the Quaternary strata structure on the basis of physical properties of rock.The clay and sand can be continuously recognized for the flat sedimentary interface in the Quaternary.The resistivity is high when the biogenic gas bears sand and vice versa.The reservoirs and biogenic gas layers can be distinguished using this feature.

Key words: Electrical resistivity imaging, Quaternary, Biogenic gas, Nantong area
