Abstract Low-yield and commercial oil flows have been discovered in the Paleogene Shahejie Formation,southern West Sag,Liaohe Depression,Bohai Bay Basin. The reservoirs are typical tight sandstone reservoirs characterized by low-ultralow porosity,extra-low-ultralow permeability and low pressure. Based on data of thin sections,SEM,grain size,mercury pressure analysis and physical property,the micro-characteristics and formation mechanisms of tight sandstones were analysed. The results show that:The tight reservoirs(with porosity value lower than 10%)are mainly distributed in the sag area;The formation of tight reservoirs are not controlled by factors such as mineral composition,grain size,grain sorting and roundness;Pore types mainly consist of secondary pores and pore structures are characterized by medium pore diameter,tiny throat and heterogeneous throat sorting;The tight sandstones are mainly formed through compactions and cementations and are thus categorized as diagenetic tight sandstones.
