In situ stress state of deep basement in the Songliao Basin: Evidence from in situ stress measurement in SK-2 borehole

doi:10.13745/j.esf.sf.2023.11.38

Abstract

Abstract:

The magnitude and orientation information of in situ stresses in the basement of the Songliao Basin are important data in geodynamics research, seismology, and deep resources exploitation and utilization. The anelastic strain recovery (ASR) method is a three-dimensional in situ stress measurement method based on drill cores. In this report, three-dimensional in situ stresses at 6-7 km depth in basement of SK-2 borehole in the Songliao Basin, Northeast China, is determined using ASR method. The stress state of basement (6646-6846 m) is consistent with thrust and strike-slip faulting regime (σ_H>σ_V>σ_h) and the orientation of maximum horizontal principal stress is near E-W. The stress state determined by stress measurement is in agreement with results from focal mechanisms of shallow earthquakes (7-15 km) within the Songliao Basin and adjacent regions. The research findings should provide an important reference for the understanding of regional tectonic stress field and the formation and evolution of the Songliao Basin.
