Gas shales have a complex pore structure. Using mercury porosimetry and nitrogen adsorption experiment on shale of Longtan Formation in southeastern of Hunan, the pore structure characteristics were contrast analyzed, influencing factors and its impact on reservoir-forming were discussed. Longtan Formation shale is composed of nanopores, include the cylinder pores with two ends open and parallel-plate pores with four sides open. The efficiency of mercury ejection ranges 31.45%~63.82%, 51.94% on average, pores uniformity is well. The size of nanopores is 5~30nm, taking up 94.74% of the total volume and 98.08% of specific surface area. Brittle minerals content is high, as an important parameter influencing pore development. The nanopores have a strong ability to absorb gas, methane molecule exist in a structured way.
