摘要
The evaluation system, critical steps and key parameters for shale gas sweet spots were discussed in this paper. A case study was carried out in Jurassic of Jiannan area of the Sichuan Basin. It was concluded as followed: 1) different from conventional petroleum evaluation, the evaluation and exploration of unconventional shale gas demanded an unconventional approach; 2) the success of long-distance horizontal fracturing in well Jianye HF-1 proved good potential for shale gas exploration in Jurassic of Jiannan area; and 3) the maps of shale thickness, ω (TOC), Ro and burial depth might guide shale gas sweet spots exploration.
