    Study on Sequence Stratigraphy from Benxi to Taiyuan Formation in Northeastern Ordos Basin

    Procedia Earth and Planetary Procedia Earth and Planetary Science 1 (2009) 995–1001 Science www.elsevier.com/locate/procedia The 6th International Conference on Mining Science & Technology Study on sequence stratigraphy from benxi to taiyuan formation in Northeastern Ordos Basin Shen Yu-lin, Guo Ying-hai, Jing Hai-xia, Xie Tao, Gao Zhen-jun, Zhang Xiao-bo* School of Resources and Earth Science, China University of Mining and Technology, Xuzhou 221008, China Abstract Based on the study of the vertical sedimentary sequence, we recognize the assemblage of vertical lithology, the geochemical test result of mudstone sample, and the characteristics of logs, the sequence stratigraphic interfaces such as regional unconformity, regional tectonic regime interface, sedimentary system interface, transgression surface and so on. Benxi to Taiyuan formation formed in the epicontinental sea, which has subdued floor, so most of the sequence structures from Benxi to Taiyuan formation are duality system tract. Tectonic disturbance, sea level change, and differential compaction provide enough accommodation space for distribution of K1 sandstone and Qiaotou sandstone. At last we establish the framework and model of sequence stratigraphy from Benxi to Taiyuan formation in northeastern Ordos basin in this paper, which contains type model of ramp marginal basin and type of ramp in epicontinental sea background. Keywords: sequence stratigraphy; epicontinental sea; Qiaotou sandstone; Northeastern Ordos basin Since the special publication No. 42 of SEPM [1] introduced new concepts and principles of sequence stratigraphy, a large number of stratigraphic studies in sedimentary basins have shown a recurring pattern of sequence geometry as summarized in the sequence model of Exxon group [2].

  • Fenwei CCI Methodology May 2019

    Fenwei CCI Methodology May 2019 1. Index Design 1.1 Shanxi Fenwei Energy Information Services Co., Ltd. ("Fenwei") price indices reflect the actual transaction prices in the spot market. 1.2 Spot trades are concluded on coal between sellers and buyers who could negotiate on price freely based on current supply and demand relation. Usually, price is negotiated for each vessel of coal in the spot market. 1.3 Fenwei price indices define clearly the specification parameters for each index, and the reasonable floating range around the actual transacted prices. 1.4 Premium and penalty standards are given for coal of similar qualities that is traded with reference to a specific index. 1.5 Fenwei price indices methodology is transparent and public. Changes of the methodology are notified 90 days prior to implementation. 1.6 Premiums and penalties are checked with actual trade practices every month. Changes of the premiums and penalties are notified 90 days prior to implementation. 2. Price Index Information Collection 2.1 Fenwei price indices are published by Price Center of Shanxi Fenwei Energy Information Services Co., Ltd. 2.2 Fenwei designates professional price collectors to gather first-hand prices. 2.3 Fenwei will expand information sources by contacting market participants as many as possible, to ensure price indices accurately reflect market prices. Market participants include but are not limited to downstream users, traders, producers, brokers and/or other active spot market participants. 2.4 Fenwei collects price information from various sources, but only the traceable price information is considered. 3. Index Calculation 3.1 Index calculations take trades that are confirmed, verifiable and compliant to index standards in priority.
