Daanzhai limestone in the Szechuan Basin consists of biosparite, biomicrite and micrite, with intercalations of black shales. Daanthai limestone is of lake origin and known as oil reservoir rocks. There are five layers of reservoir rocks, of which D-3 is the most important in Shuangsijiao oil field. Stained thin sections were studied for 250 limestone samples from the oil field. In addition to non-ferrous calcite, three phases of ferrous calcite were identified in Daanzhai limestone, which are ferrous calcite Ⅰ (0.5 to 1.5% FeO), ferrous calcite Ⅱ (1.5 to 2.5% FeO) and ferrous calcite Ⅲ (2.5 to 3.5% FeO). Shuangsijiao off field belongs to diagenetic trap type. It has been confirmed that the non.ferrous sparry calcite cementation and solution (vug) of the second period control the distribution of commercial oil wells, which are located in southeastern part of the structure trap.
