Abstract:
Based on the analyses of various isotopic compositions (δ
13C
1,δ
13C
co2,
40Ar/
38Ar,etc.),it is suggested there arc not only natural gases of single origin,but also gases of mixed origins.According to the isotopic composition studies of He,Ar and C,the constituents of He,Ar and N
2 in Sinian weiyun Gas Field are pertained to inorganic origin coming from deep parts of the crust,whereas it can attributed to thermogenic gas because the isotopic values of the hydrocarbons are of -32.6‰— -32.9‰.As another example,the gas of Wanjints Gas Field has values of δ
13C
co2 range from -4.04‰ to -8.83‰ which proves the inorganic origin of the CO
2 (volcanic source) whereas δ
13C
1 value is of -42.07‰ to -45.37‰ which indicates the organic origin of the methane.The various origins of the different constituents of the same gas pool (shows) indicate not only the complex processes for the accumulation and formation of natural gas,but also the complication of the gas and source correlations.
