The Es4 s shale is taken as the main research object to understand and describe the reservoir characteristics in Boxing Sag, Dongying Depression. Through core observation, X-ray diffraction, thin section observation, field-emission scanning electron microscopy analysis, and low-pressure nitrogen gas adsorption experiment, the reservoir space of the Es4 s shale including pore types, pore size, and pore structure characteristics was elucidated. The study shows that the shale in the Boxing Sag has the following characteristics: (1) the reservoir space in the study area is diverse, with the development of inorganic pores, organic pores, and microfractures. The higher the content of calcite and organic matter, the more favorable the development of intergranular pores, dissolution pores, and organic matter pores and (2) complex pore structure. The average Barrett-Joyner-Halenda pore size of calcareous shale is 6.5-22.8 nm, and the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller cumulative specific surface area is 0.7588-4.744 m2/g. According to the morphological analysis of the adsorption and desorption curve, it is found that the shale samples in the target interval are mainly ink-bottle-shaped, cylindrical, and slit-shaped pores. The shale samples with relatively well-laminated intervals are mainly composed of ink-bottle-shaped and cylindrical pores, while the samples with relatively unlaminated intervals and high clay mineral content are mainly composed of slit-shaped pores. The contents of clay minerals and calcite are correlated with pore volume, specific surface area, and pore size, which further indicates the controlling effect of clay minerals and carbonate mineral components on pore structure parameters. This study not only helps us to understand the distribution of various micropores/nanopores in the lacustrine shale but also acts as a guiding note for the characterization of the shale oil reservoir, which ultimately offers a theoretical foundation for lacustrine shale oil exploration and development.
