Guo Zhaojie, Zhang Zhicheng, Qian Xianglin, Li Maosong
1998, 20(3): 205-209. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803205
Abstract(2651) PDF-CN(339)
Abstract:
The Yanqi basin,which formed on the basis of South Tianshan orogenic belt in the Mesozoic,was a pull apart one.Since the Miocene Yanqi basin has been overthrusted from north by Tianshan belt and from south by Kuluktag belt because of the Himalayan orogenic event.The Yanqi basin is now one of foreland basins.A series of stepped thrusts and fault related folds occur in the Yanqi basin.The tectonic loadings resulted from the overthrusts induce source rocks of the Jurassic coalbeds and dark argillites to maturation period for hydrocarbon generation.We proposed that Yanqi basin is a favorable one for accumulation of oil and gas.

Zhang Guangxue, Bai Zhilin
1998, 20(3): 210-216. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803210
Abstract:
The paper described the characteristics of main tectonic movements and structural styles in each structural layer in the Wan'an basin in detail.Three tectonic movements including the Cretaceous Lile movement,the Middle Late Eocene Xiwei movement and the Late Miocene Wan'an movement occurred in the basin.The earlier Lile movement resulted in the basin's embryonic tectonics,the later Xiwei movement caused expansion of the continental margin fault depression,and the latest Wan'an movement lead to the former strata folded,block faulting,denuding and structural inversion.Most structural traps were formed in the latest movement.With occurring of main tectonic movement,there are three suites of tectonic layer in the basin,i.e.basement layer(under T5 or Tg),principal layer(between T3 and T5)and superficial layer in which various characteristics structural styles have been developed.In terms of hydrocarbon accumulation,the principal layer is the habitat due to its wide development of structural traps.

Duan Tiejun, Xu Hongjie, Wu Hong, Tang Huimin
1998, 20(3): 217-222. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803217
Abstract:
Above 60% oil/gas traps whose formation mainly has close relationship to faulting are developed concentratedly within the fault zone of the Tarim Basin.Faulting of different systems controls the types of oil/gas traps.Thrust decollement mainly results in stacking imbricate,fault bending,fault spreading and fault sliding folds,back thrusting in back thrusting blocks,back thrusting anticlines and tractive traps,and strike slip displacement in efflorescent and en echelon folds.They have become the important targets for the oil/gas exploration of the basin.

Deng Qinglu, Wei Bize, Du Guoying, Wang Zhanqi, Xiao Dunqing, Su Junqing
1998, 20(3): 223-227. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803223
Abstract:
Nappe structure formed in the Indo early Yanshan movement were found in the north,the south and the inner platform fold belts of the North China platform.But it is not in document so far in the basement of the vast east basin of the platform.Based on the interpretation of seismic sections and the examination of core,the nappe structure form was discerned in the Kongxi buried hill in the Huanghua down warped basin.Typical elements of nappe structure,such as fault slope,fault flat,antithetic thrust,overlap beds,and so on,were found in the buried hill.As to the driving force of the nappe structure,the left slip motion of the Tanlu fault zone during the Indo early Yanshan movement was proposed.The confirmation of the nappe structure in the basement of the Huanghua basin may have implications to the further oil and gas exploration in that area.

Chen Zongqing
1998, 20(3): 228-233. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803228
Abstract:
The exploration degree of Carboniferous system at the eastern foot of Huayingshan Mountain is higher.Twelve traps have been explored,and ten gas pools obtained.Only the traps at the northern sector of Lin produce water,and the circum mountain traps at the southern sector do not produce gases because of too thin residual thickness and the loss of reservoir.In the stable area of Carboniferous residual thickness at the northern sector,the gas pools are all tectonic traps which are dominated by host anticlinal traps and consistent with regional tectonics.In the changeable area of Carboniferous residual thickness at the southern sector,the gas pool traps are complex.Besides tectonic traps,strata host anticlinal compound,strata stacking fault compound,strata fault compound and unaka traps exist together with the change of residual thickness.Under certain conditions,solution lithologic traps or fault solution lithologic traps also occur.The targets of further exploration are mainly underfault overthrust,strata fault compound,strata host anticlinal compound,host anticlinal ane solution lithologic traps.

Zhu Yangming, Fu Jiamo, Sheng Guoying
1998, 20(3): 253-257. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803253
Abstract:
Aromatic fraction in more than 30 representative oils from the Tarim Basin are analyzed using GC/MS and gas chromatography with atomic emission detector(GC/AED).The analytical data shows that various kinds of oils are significantly different in concentration and distribution of organic sulfur compounds.Compared with the terrestrical oils,the marine oils are characterized by high amount of dibenzothiophenes(20%)and high dibenzothiophene/phenanthrene ratio(>0.35).By their higher values of these two para meters,Tazhong restricted bay(lagoon)oils can be distinguished from Tabei marine platform oils.These marine oils are poor in dibenzothiophene(DBT)compared to dimethylated homologs(DBDBT),reflecting the difference in oringinal organic matter and depositional enviroment.It is noted that the abundance benzothiophenes(BTs)relative to dibenzothiophenes(DBTs)varies in oils from different source rock lithologies,with oils derived from carbonate having higher value.MDR,a maturity indicator based on dibenzthiophenes in oils,is affected by mineral matrices,with coal derived oil having anomalous high value,and MDR1 and MDR2,3 are related to depositional environment and organic matter type.
A NEW TECHNIQUE OF RESERVIOR GEOCHEMISTRY AND ITS APPLICATION TO DEVELOPMENT OF XIDALIYA OILFIELD
Wei Fujun, Zhang Yunxia
1998, 20(3): 258-260. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803258
Abstract:
Many factors,such as depositional environment,maturation of organic matters,hydrocarbon migration and secondary alteration,may cause difference of petroleum fingerprint,i.e.the vertical and lateral difference in reservior.However,diffusion and density overturn can adjust the difference and reach a new dynamic balance.But close fault and rocks with low permeability will destroy the balance.Therefore,some geochemical information can be used to describe reservior,such as correlation of small beds,division of faults and flow units,water/oil contact,paleowater flow.It will provide useful information for development of Xidaliya Oilfield.

Pu Xiugang, Gao Gang, Hao Shisheng
1998, 20(3): 272-275. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803272
Abstract:
The distribution of Low Paleozoic source beds,especially carbonate rock strata,is very wide in our country.But the geochemical evaluation for the distributive area of carbonate rocks is always a vulnerable spot.One of the important reasons is that it is difficult to obtain the accurate geochemical parameters due to the high overmaturity of carbonate rocks.In this pater,the lowmatured Gloeocapsomorpha kerogen of general distributive significance in Ordovician source beds is selected for pyrolysis experiment.A series of dynamic parameters(activation energy E,the changing relationship of frequency factor A to degradability X)of chemical reactions obtained have an obvious use for reference to the correct evaluation of oil/gas potential and hydrocarbon generation/hydrocarbon discharging history in Low Paleozoic carbonate rock strata.
COMPARISON OF THE HYDROCARBON GENERATING CHARACTERISTICS OF ALGAE KEROGEN IN CARBONATE ROCK AND IN MUDSTONE
Gao Gang, Hao Shisheng, PU Xiuyong
1998, 20(3): 276-281. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803276
Abstract:
By means of hydrothermal simulation,the similarities and differences of the hydrocarbon generating characteristics of algae kerogen in the media of carbonate rock and mudstone are analysed.There are small differences in the hydrocarbon compositions of liquid products,the gas chromatograms of saturated hydrocarbons and the characteristics of solid kerogen between carbonate rock and mudstone.The gas yield is obviously small in the medium of mudstone and water than in that of carbonate rock and water.The main reason is that a great amount of CO2 are formed in the medium of carbonate rock.The catalysis of clay mineral on gaseous hydrocarbons is revealed specifically by the fact that unsaturated hydrocarbons change into saturated hydrocarbons through hydrogen addition catalysis.This is more effective for low molecular methane.The catalysis of carbonate rock to unsaturated hydrocarbons and methane is not so good as mudstone.But it is more favourable to the generation of heavier gaseous hydrocarbons.Before the time to generate a great amount of oil,the oil generating amount of carbonate rock is high than that of mudstone.At the time of oil generating peak,the total liquid products of the both are almost equal.The oil generating peak of mudstone is generally consistent with or slightly later than that of carbonate rock.

Xu Sihuang, Mei Lianfu, Yuan Caiping
1998, 20(3): 287-291. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803287
Abstract(1221) PDF-CN(330)
Abstract:
Generation of hydrocarbon from kerogen is one of important genetic types of abnormal pressure in source rock.Because the pressurizing caused by generation was taking place during the period of genera ting and expulsion,it is difficult to recover or calculate it directly.Usually it can be measured by numerical modeling.The mathematical model of pressurizing was built according to the physico chemical mechanism of generation.It shows that the more the generated hydrocarbon,and the more compact the source rock,the larger the intensity of pressurizing.The pressurizing caused by gas generation is stronger than that caused by oil generation.The pressurizing caused by generation can be modeled,and also the expulsion through microfracture caused by the pressurizing can be recovered by using this mathematical model.Numerical modeling on pressurizing caused by generation has been effectivelg applied in several typical petroleum basins in China.

Shan Yehua, Li Zhian
1998, 20(3): 297-304. doi: 10.11781/sysydz199803297
Abstract:
In this paper,an optimum method is suggested to estimate a few sets of subsurface systematic joint spacings.Instead of fractured rock orientation,core data are used to estimate a few sets of joint spacings.In order to confirm the efficiency of this method,an ideal fracture model is set up.It is discovered that the product of joint spacings is estimated more accurately than joint spacings alone under the same times of observations.Finally,the method is applied in estimating a few sets of joint spacings of reservoir in the 6th member of Triassic Yanchang Formation at the southern 2nd region of Jingan oil field in the Ordos Platform.
