New gas reservoir discovered in Shanxi formation of Daniudi Gasfield!
The scientists studied the sediment types in Daniudi Gasfield to find good spots for gas exploration. They looked at rock samples, thin sections, and chemical patterns to identify different sediment types like river deltas and flood plains. They found that the best gas reservoirs are in distributary channels in the delta plains. The sediment mostly comes from a specific area in the northeast.
