Abstract

To explore a comprehensive evaluation method for saline lacustrine shale, samples were collected from the shale strata of the Lucaogou Formation in the Jimusar Sag, Junggar Basin. Organic geochemical and mineralogical parameters were assessed through TOC evaluation, rock pyrolysis, and XRD. Quantitative analysis of pore structure was achieved using a combined low-pressure N2 adsorption and mercury intrusion. Optical microscopy and FE-SEM analyzed macerals and pore morphology, respectively, while 2D NMR identified varied hydrogen-containing components in the shale. The findings revealed predominance of inorganic pores in saline lacustrine shale strata, with a lower occurrence of organic pores. The saline lacustrine sediments were in the late stage of oil generation. The siltstone and type III3 carbonate felsic shale displayed an abundance of type II1 organic matter, low vitrinite and inertinite contents, high macroporous volumes and surface areas, and they possessed a high content and fluidity of free oil, despite being lower maturity (0.85%
