Abstract: As a high-quality reservoir of the lower assemblage, the Dengying Formation have been proved by the oil and gas exploration. However, the distribution of reservoir is not yet clear. Based on the outcrop of Dengying Formation at Luchi section, Zhenba Area, this paper carries out a detailed study of the sedimentary microfacies. Furthermore, combined with microscopic characteristics, the sedimentary characteristics and genesis of eight types of rocks are sorted out and explained. These rock types include micritic dolostones, residual dolarenite, stromatolite dolostones, thrombolite dolostones, microbe-bonded dolarenite, argillaceous siltstone, argillaceous dolostones and (dolomite-bearing) siliceous rock. The sedimentary environment of Dengying Formation in the study area is open carbonate platform, which has experienced two transgression-regressive cycles.The carbon and oxygen isotope and trace element data indicate that the sedimentary paleoenvironment during deposition of Dengying Formation changed dramatically. On the whole, the deposition period of the Dengying Formation is roughly featured with the decreasement of seawater salinity, increasement of seawater temperature and gradual increasement of oxygen content, but the environmental fluctuations may exist.
