In this paper, the visible near infrared, short wave red, and thermal infrared spectral data and high-definition core images of three wells in Huangling anticline in Western Hubei are obtained by hylogger. Through comprehensive analysis, it can be seen that the thickness of Niutitang Formation is decreasing from west to East, However, the thickness of Doushantuo Formation is basically the same, ranging from 210m to 220m. Quartz, clay minerals, carbonate and limonite are the main minerals in Niutitang formation, while in Doushantuo Formation dolomite is the main mineral. Dolomite fracture is developed in this area, which is a favorable area for shale gas development.

Hylogger core scanning system is used to detailed scan shale gas drilling cores, obtaining visible-near infrared (spectral range 380nm-1100nm),short-wave infrared (spectral range 1100nm-2500nm) spectral curves and high-definition core images. Taking Well weican 1 in the West Taikang Uplift in the South China North Basin as an example, based on the analysis of clay mineral types in the core of the target layer, it is judged to be an alkaline deposit environment rich in iron and magnesium with a temperature of about130°C. Combined with mineral information and core image, the core of the target layer is divided,mud shale is developed, the cumulative thickness exceeds 400m, the maximum single layer thickness reaches 38m, at the same time, the hydrocarbon absorption characteristics of the shale section are obvious, it shows a good prospect for shale gas in the region.

The shale of the lower Cambrian Niutitang formation in northwestern Hunan is an ideal reservoir for shale gas. There is a close connection between borehole stability and drilling fluid in shale gas drilling. Ionic stabilizer is a new type of stratum consolidation agent that inhibits the hydration expansion of clay minerals and improves mechanical strength of the borehole. The traditional idea of pore wall protection is to use drilling fluid additives to prevent shale from interacting with water. However, ionic stabilizer can change the hydrophilic of clay minerals in shale, making the particles become hydrophobic and dense, therefore, the formation stability can be enhanced simultaneously. The material used in this paper is different from the normal ionic stabilizer, some chemical bonds that have been changed in the new material called enhanced normality ionic (ENI) stabilizer. This paper utilized the shale samples those obtained from Niutitang formation to study the connection between ENI and the mechanical properties of shale. Mechanical tests and microscopic pore tests were performed on different samples which were soaked in water and the ENI with different concentrations. It has been found through tests that ENI can inhibit the development of shale pores, and as the concentration increases, the inhibition increases. In addition, as the ENI concentration increases, the uniaxial compressive strength and Young’s modulus of the shale increase, and the ratio of stability coefficients decreases. It can be concluded that the ENI can improve the mechanical strength of carbon shale, and prevent the development of rock damage. Moreover, it can improve the ability of rock to resist damage, and enhance borehole stability initiatively.

Technologies which utilize near-infrared (700 – 1000 nm) and short-wave infrared (1000 – 2000 nm) electromagnetic radiation have applications in deep-tissue imaging, telecommunications and satellite telemetry due to low scattering and decreased background signal in this spectral region. However, there are few molecular species, which absorb efficiently beyond 1000 nm. Transition dipole moment coupling (e.g. J-aggregation) allows for redshifted excitonic states and provides a pathway to highly absorptive electronic states in the infrared. We present aggregates of two cyanine dyes whose absorption peaks redshift dramatically upon aggregation in water from ~ 800 nm to 1000 nm and 1050 nm with sheet-like morphologies and high molar absorptivities (e ~ 10<sup>5 </sup>M<sup>-1</sup>cm<sup>-1</sup>). To describe this phenomenology, we extend Kasha’s model for J- and H-aggregation to describe the excitonic states of <i> 2-dimensional aggregates</i> whose slip is controlled by steric hindrance in the assembled structure. A consequence of the increased dimensionality is the phenomenon of an <i>intermediate </i>“I-aggregate”, one which redshifts yet displays spectral signatures of band-edge dark states akin to an H-aggregate. We distinguish between H-, I- and J-aggregates by showing the relative position of the bright (absorptive) state within the density of states using temperature dependent spectroscopy. Our results can be used to better design chromophores with predictable and tunable aggregation with new photophysical properties.
