The sepiolite-containing succession in the Member 1 of the Middle Permian Maokou Formation in the Sichuan Basin exhibit self-generation and self-accumulation characteristics,positioning them as a promising new frontier for the exploration of unconventional gas reservoirs. However,the identification and predictive distribution of these strata are still underdeveloped. This study utilizes core samples,thin sections,X-ray diffraction(XRD)analysis,well logging,and mud logging data,performing sensitivity analysis to select six key well log curves: CNL,DEN,GR,RT,RXO,and AC. The SMOTE algorithm is employed to address feature imbalance. The workflow for predicting sepiolite-containing succession based on multi-gradient boosting algorithms is as follows: (1)The CatBoost algorithm is used for binary classification to determine the presence of sepiolite;(2)CatBoost performs multi-class classification to categorize the morphology of sepiolite-containing succession;(3)XGBoost is applied for regression analysis to predict the talc content in the sepiolite-containing succession;(4)The effective thickness of sepiolite-containing succession is identified based on talc content. The sepiolite-containing succession in the Member 1 of Maokou Formation primarily exhibit three morphologies: spotty,lenticular,and layered. Prediction results indicate that spotty talc is mainly developed in the northern and central southern regions of Sichuan Basin,with thickness increasing toward the northeast;lenticular talc is predominantly distributed in the western Sichuan region;and layered talc is mainly found in north western,central and southern Sichuan Basin. Overall,the sepiolite-containing succession in the Member 1 of Maokou Formation show a distribution pattern of‘thicker in the northeast,thinner in the southwest.’The Tongjiang-Changshou intracratonic sag area and the Hechuan-Weiyuan-Luzhou region serve as the sedimentary centers for the effective thickness of sepiolite-containing succession,providing a basis for future exploration and deployment in these areas.
