AbstractIn the background of shallow water delta front facies, the reservoir of study area is affected by the
river and wave double force. The continuity of sand is poor. The difficulty of correlation presents many ways.
Such as the lack of maker bed in Putaohua Reservoir, unconspicuous distinction of correlation, interferred by
spin echo deposition of underwater distributary channel, the change in the pattern of stacked sands, the division
of classes of base level cycle. Based on the principle of high-resolution sequence stratigraphy, the ways of
correlation and using core data, analysis and test data, logging data, seismic data establish high-resolution
sequence stratigraphic framework, which is of great significance to guide the development and production of oil
field.

INTRODUCTION
Geographical location in the study area is located in Zhaoyuan country and Duerbote monggol
nationality autonomous county in the Daqing city of Heilongjiang province. Tectonic position is located in the
Puxi nose-like structure of the central depression area, southern Qijia-Gulong depression in Songliao basin.The
purpose of the study Putaohua Reservoir belongs to Yao group sedimentary formation with large lake delta front
deposition. Oilfield has entered the late development stage, and urgently needs to understand the underground
geological conditions. High resolution sequence stratigraphic framework offer compacted geological foundation

STRATIGRAPHIC CLASSIFICATION OF HIGH RESOLUTION SEQUENCE
Based on the basic principle of high resolution sequence stratigraphy and the interface feature of
base-level cycle of different classes , Putaohua Reservoir in Puxi oilfield is divided into 2 middle-term
base-level cycles, 11 short-term base-level cycles and 15 short-term base-level cycles (Fig.1).

STRATIGRAPHIC CORRELATIONS OF HIGH RESOLUTION SEQUENCE
Based on high-resolution sequence stratigraphic classification, usually by means of the theory of high
resolution sequence stratigraphy the stratigraphic correlation can be finished. But not all of the base level cycle
in the study area is obvious and can be easy to identify the characteristics in logging curve, stratigraphic
correlation methods in the aid of delta depositional system is necessary. Such as the correlation of the maker bed
control, base level cycle correlation, the sedimentary characteristics of underwater distributary channel, balance
thickness method, the mode of fault guiding the contrast, closed frame section [2-3]. By the correlation methods, a
uniform and accurate isochronous stratigraphic framework has been established.
3.1 The correlation method of maker bed control
Through the analysis, six layers with the sigh of the stability are found in the study area. Maker bed one,
two is respectively about 15m6m from Putaohua Reservoir top of the silt layer with distribution of stability.
Gamma curve has high value and resistivity curve has low value. Genesis of the phenomenon is in disruption the
stability of the quiet water in flooding period, thin sand layer is in mudstone. Maker beds three and four is
respectively the top of Putaohua reservoir and bottom of Putaohua Reservoir with the growth rate of 100%.
Maker beds five, six are located in the lower part of Putaohua Reservoir, and the characteristics and causes is the
same as the maker bed one and two. Above, maker beds have the stable characteristics in distribution of the
whole study area and deposit at the same time. These maker beds can accurately determine the Putaohua
Reservoir in the position of vertical formation during the correlation (Fig.2).
3.2 The correlation of different classes of base-level cycle [4-5]
Different classes of base level cycle result in different classes of base-level cycle sequence. During the
process of correlation, middle-term base-level cycle sequence regard as comparison framework, and then the
short-term, super short-term base-level cycle sequence is contrasted.

3.3 The correlation of balance thickness method
The cutting action make the scour surface uneven at the bottom of the river channel and the river has
different thickness in different positions .The balance thickness is average thickness of sedimentary body of
river. Specific steps: firstly, determine the thickness of the balance of the depositional time unit. Second, the
bottom interface of the channel sand body which is close to balance thickness would be regarded as the line of
contrast. Finally, the interface of the balance thickness applies to the adjacent wells, which can control the strata,
where base level cycle is not obvious.
3.4The correlation of mode of fault
The existence of the fault makes the absence of strata of the well which drill in the fault. How to
determine the breakpoint becomes the key word of the well which drills in the fault. Taking an example
illustrate the well G106 which drills in fault. G106 is close to G108.The formation of G106 is partly missing,
but the maker bed is present. The thickness of purpose layer in study area is about 60 meters, but the thickness
of purpose layer of G106 is 24.5 meters with the loss of 35.5 meters. According to the similarity of curve shape,
correlation of strata begins from the bottom maker bed up to the top of Putaohua Reservoir compared with G108.
And then correlation of strata begins from the top of the maker bed down to the bottom of Putaohua Reservoir
compared with G108 (Fig.3a). By the correlation of strata, G106 miss the middle part of Putaohua Reservoir. By
the analysis of seismic section (Fig.3b), G106 is located in hanging wall of fault, and the result of missing
formation is the same compared with the result of correlation with log.

THE VERIFICATION OF THE RESULT OF CORRELATION
The results of comparison will directly affect the sedimentary microfacies of drawing and the study of
the connectivity of reservoir .According to the gravity differentiation, oil is located in the high structural
position in the same system of oil and water, and water is located in the lower part .Through reservoir section
and faces sequence, the accuracy of the isochronous stratigraphic framework can be checked up. Now taking
PI7 depositional time unit as an example, map sedimentary microfacies plan (Fig.5A), which fits a pattern of
shallow water delta front deposition. Fluid in connected sand body accords with the distribution law of reservoir
by means of the study of sedimentary microfacies and the tectonic position from low to high in reservoir section
(Fig.5B), so the validity of the contrast is verified.
