2004, 26(3): 219-222. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403219
Abstract(1038) PDF-CN(521)
Abstract:
The Lanping-Simao Mesozoic Basin is a sedimentary basin which was developed based on the Paleo-Tethys multi-island ocean framework,and its formation and evolution are closely related to the tectonic evolution of the Tethys-Sanjiang orogenic belt.The prototype basin was formed during the Middle Triassic accompanying the open of the Mid-Tethys Ocean.The closing of the Mid-Tethys made the crust deformed and the Lower Jurassic missed universally during the end of the Late Triassic to the Early Jurassic.The Neo-Tethys opened during the Middle Jurassic.It made the basin subside again and accept the Middle Jurassic-Cretaceous deposit.Himalayan orogenic movement made the Neo-Tethys closed,and the crust uplifted large scale when the basin was deformed to form fractures,folds and characteristic ramp structures.Then the Cenozoic pull-apart basin superposed on the Mesozoic basin.The tectonic evolution controlled the subsidence,sedimentation,pyrogenesis and structure framework of the basin.

Abstract(1023) PDF-CN(418)
Abstract:
Hydrocarbon in the West Sag of Tanhai area,the Liaohe Basin was mainly derived from the source rocks of the Es3 and Es1+2 Member.By integrating the methods of well core analyzing and logging calibrating,the effective thickness of source rocks and their distribution were determined.Faults,connec-ting sandstones and unconformities were the three main pathways of petroleum migration in the study area.They singly,or combined with others,controlled the migration and accumulation of oil and gas around main hydrocarbon-bearing zones.Moreover,composite trap zones led to the formation of composite hydrocarbon accumulation zones.Hydrocarbon pool-forming conditions matched with each other,and formed characteristic accumulation models and distribution rules in every composite hydrocarbon accumulation zone.The distribution of oil and gas was clarified for guiding the future petroleum exploration of the area.

2004, 26(3): 229-235. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403229
Abstract:
The Mesozoic structures in the Ordos Basin are simple and smooth,with reservoirs mainly of low porosity and low permeability and distinctive hydrocarbon migration.The conditions of porosity and permeability are better in the Jurassic and the upper reservoirs of the Yanchang Formation,and the driving forces of hydrocarbon migration and accumulation are dominated by buoyancy.The surfaces of unconfor-mity on the top of the Triassic and the paleochannel sandbodies of the Jurassic constituted the major migration pathways of hydrocarbon in the Jurassic oil pools,and the oil reservoirs were distributed mainly in the Jurassic paleochannels and the places near the surfaces of unconformity.During the period of a large amount of petroleum creation,the middle and lower reservoirs of the Yanchang Formation were very dense,and the formations basically losed water alternating ability.Abnormal high pressure then exceeded static buoyancy and became the main dynamic of secondary petroleum migration.Permeable sandstone was the main petroleum migration pathway to northeast and southwest,and oil reservoirs were distributed chiefly in hydrocarbon-generating centers and regions around them.

2004, 26(3): 236-240. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403236
Abstract:
The Qom Basin was developed in Mesozoic and Cenozic on the Precambrian metamorphic base.The analytic results of organic abundance,organic type,hydrocarbon-generating evolution of source rock and oil-source correlations indicated that Shemshak Formation (Jurassic) are effective source rocks.And Qom Formation (Oligocend-Miocene) are potential sources rocks.For the Shemshak Formation,organic matters entered into oil window in the Early Cretaceous,and were evolved into wet gas and condensate zone in about 17 Ma.At the Early Pliocene (about 5 Ma),the rapid subsidence of Qom Basin brought on the over maturation of Shemshak Formation.Study of accumulation conditions showed that Qom Basin was in favor of the formation and development of petroleum system.In Qom Basin,there might be hydrocarbon accumulations with traps formed in Neogene and sourced from Shemshak Formation (and Qom Formation),there also might be accumulations with reservoir rocks and source rocks both were Shemshak Formation.

2004, 26(3): 241-248. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403241
Abstract:
The tectonic framework and rifting patterns of the Fushan Depressron in Hainan were controlled by basement major faults.There developed deep and shallow two wets of fault systems with different occurrence and active features.The former was advantageous to hydrocarbon screening and pool formation,and the later resulted in the dispersion of oil and gas and the destruction of hydrocarbon pools.In the Fushan Depression of Hainan,faults of two kinds,four genetic types and eight active models were developed,and basement major faults had important controlling roles to the distribution of bydrocarbon source rocks,the formation of traps and the migration and accumulation of oil and gas.Also,reverse fault screening and consequent fault dredging two kinds including six types of pool-forming models for hydrocarbon migration and accumulation were developed.

2004, 26(3): 249-253. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403249
Abstract:
One of the uses of fluid inclusion enclaves analysis in petroleum geology is to utilize inclusion enclaves in diagenic minerals in inferring hydrocarbon migration path,calculating injection time and determin-ing injection direction.The patterns of homogeneous temperature of hydrocarbon inclusion enclaves in the Xinglongtai reservoir,as a whole,are characterized by normal unimodal or asymmetric unimodal distributions,and the major peak temperatures range from 80℃ to 100℃,which reflect that,the hydrocarbon inclusion enclaves in different samples are of the similar formation process.In addition,inclusion homogeneous temperatures in a few wells display a bimodal distribution pattern,which may imply that,there exist at least 2 stages of inclusion formation.Studies on the burial-heat evolution history shows that,hydrocarbon injection period in the Xinglongtai reservoir is 3-35 Ma ago,which can be divided into 2 major stages:27-35Ma and 3-24Ma,and the former is the main hydrocarbon injection stage.Researches also show that,the direction of hydrocarbon injection is from the east to the west.There are 3 pool-forming stages:a)A small amount of hydrocarbon migrates into the embryonic trap in the late Es3,after which the temporary uplift in the end of Es3 results in oxidation for part of the hydrocarbon in the incipient reservoir,forming black asphalt;b)The Es2-Ed stage is the major hydrocarbon accumulation period;c)Hydrocarbon gene-(ration) intensity is relatively weak since the late Tertiary.Hydrocarbon in the reservoir is preserved,which is attributed to the excellent mudstone cap of the overlying Es3+4.

LÜ Jun-xiang, DING Dao-gui, LIU Guang-xiang
2004, 26(3): 254-257. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403254
Abstract:
There are a lot of overthrusts and screened traps developed on footwall of the overthrusts in the Tarim basin as a result of its long existence of compressional stress in the area.Two regimes of overthrust systems were formed during the Hercynian movement in the end of Early Permian and the Himalayan movement in the end of Oligocene respectively.Main hydrocarbon accumulation was happened during the two tectonic movements.The screened traps developed on footwall of overthrust were formed by secondary stress that was formed during the syn-thrusting or post-thrusting.Two walls of an overthrust showed different deformation with the hanging wall belong to allochthonous block and the footwall relatively unmoved and more or less is in situ.Therefore,traps on the foot wall of thrust are more favourable for hydrocarbon preservation.

2004, 26(3): 267-272. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403267
Abstract:
In the characterization of fault-blocked Machang oilfield,nine scale reservoir architectures were founded,of which the fifth and sixth order became the main subjects for characterization in the study.With the fifth order as the mapping unit,the reservoir structural model was established.According to re-servoir heterogeneity,eight types of water injection patterns were identified.The high residual oil areas were determined through injecting-water volume analysis.The residual oil belonged to four patterns as following:oil not controlled by the production well-net,oil remained for architecture element contacting,oil between two injection wells and oil remained for injection interfering.The residual oil appraisal indicated that the reservoirs were well developed,and it is difficult to maintain their production as usual.

2004, 26(3): 273-280. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403273
Abstract:
The natural gas from well AK1 was analyzed by multipe analytical methods in this paper.At the same time,the thermal-pressure simulation method was introduced to perform a series of gas-producing simulation experiments on many kinds of source rocks,and the simulated gas was compared with the natural gas from well AK1.The results revealed that the natural gas of well AK1 originated from dry gas formed in the postmature stage of the Carboniferous-Permian in the study area.Based on the organic inclusion analysis and the authigenic illite dating and combined with sedimentary and tectonic evolution analy-sis,the authors suggested that the natural gas of well AK1 was a result of late pool formation and staged gas accumulation and mainly congregated gas formed during the end of the Late Tertiary and the Quaternary.This result will be of important directive value for the further exploration of southwest Tarim area.

2004, 26(3): 281-286. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403281
Abstract:
The prescribed minimum of hydrocarbon expulsion of carbonate is measured to be TOC=0.06%-0.12% through simulating tests,and it is considered that its conception and total organic carbon lower limits of carbonate source rocks are different.The former is the origin character of rocks,not a giving standard.The total organic carbon lower limit of carbonate source rocks is a evaluating standard,and its value can be equal to or more than the prescribed minimum of hydrocarbon expulsion of carb(-onate),but not less than that.By means of the research of richness,type,facies and maturity of organic matter in carbonate source rock,the evaluating standards that carbonate had been considered as typeⅠkerogen have been amended as types Ⅰ,Ⅱ1,Ⅱ2 kerogen,and carbonate source rock has been divided as four types,that is,very good source rock,good source rock,fair source rock and poor source rock.The total organic carbon lower limits of carbonate source rock is 0.2% to 0.4% in immature and mature stages;and 0.1% to (0.25%) in high mature and past mature stages.

2004, 26(3): 292-297. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403292
Abstract:
Oil from Damingtun Sag can be divided into normal oil with waxy content is less than 20% and high waxy oil with wax is more than 20%.Comparing with normal oil,the depositional environment of source rocks of high waxy oil is characterized by poorer shale,higher salty and relative restricted weak reduction water body,and the organic matters are mainly composed of higher plant and lower grade aquatic creatures based on physical nature,sterane and terpene analysis of crude oil.Detail oil-rock correlation shows that high waxy oil originates from "oil shale" of Es4(2),whereas normal oil sourced from shale of Es4(1) and Es3(4).Formation of high waxy oil is mainly controlled by the organic matter of source rocks and the sedimentary environment.The low thermal condition makes the high waxy oil to be preserved in the sag.

Abstract(1088) PDF-CN(465)
Abstract:
A numerical simulation system of pool-forming history was established by modelling the development history of source rocks,reservoirs,cap rocks and traps as well as primary migration,preservation conditions,paleotemperature and pressure.As an example,it was used in the Paleozoic of the Wen'an (Slop,the Bohaiwan Basin.The results showed that the Paleozoic coal-related hydrocarbon pools in the) Wen'an Slope of the Bohaiwan Basin were formed in the two periods.The first was the end of the Meso-zoic,but the formed pools were disrupted by the Yanshanian movement afterwards.And the second was the Palaeogene,which was the major period of pool formation.The formation of hydrocarbon pools in the study area mainly depended on the matching of hydrocarbon-generating history and hydrocarbon-expelling history to trap formation periods and the preservation conditions of hydrocarbon pools after their formation.So the exploration for the Paleozoic original hydrocarbon pools in the Jizhong Depression should be focused on the traps formed in the Himalayan period and situated within and around the secondary hydrocarbon-generating areas.

2004, 26(3): 303-307. doi: 10.11781/sysydz200403303
Abstract:
Reservoir quantitative prediction is the key technology of lithologic reservoir prospecting,and seismic inversion is the most important core technique of it.For it,thin layer differentiation,lithologic character recognition and reservoir identification are the most difficult problems.Quasi-acoustilogging-restrained seismic inversion technology is using the reservoir geophysical characters to construct acoustic waves from other logging curves in order to inverse the parameters of reservoirs.The difference between sandstone velocity and mudstone velocity is too weak to predict reservoirs.The quasi-acoustilogging-restrained seismic inversion has been constructed here and got ideal effects in identifying reservoir distribution and thickness.It was indicated that the prediction results were accurate,and this method can be used in the further exploration of the study area.
