Stable carbon isotope composition of monoterpanes in essential oils and crude oils

Twenty-five monoterpanes from six types of essential oils and hydrogenated turpentine oil have been identified and their stable carbon isotope composition determined.Monoterpanes in essential oils sourced from terrestrial higher plants display a δ13C value in the range of-34‰-26‰,and mostly between-29‰ and-27‰.The δ13C value of any single monoterpane is very consistent in different essential oils.Acyclic monoterpanes show closer isotope composition between-28.6‰ and-26.2‰,with an average value of-27.7‰.In contrast,the isotope composition of cyclic monoterpanes is more scattered with an average value of-28.6‰.Isotopic fractionation with 13C enrichment has been observed during both artificial and geological hydrogenation of monoterpenoids to monoterpanes,and this is more obvious for the acyclic monoterpenoids.In addition to higher plants,acyclic monoterpane 2,6-dimethylheptane in crude oil can also be originated from other organic inputs.     

Geochemical evidence for strong ongoing methanogenesis in Sanhu region of Qaidam Basin

Sanhu depression of Qaidam Basin is the largest biogenic gas production region in China.Headspace samples were collected from two wells in this region,and hydrogen and propylene compounds were detected in these samples with a certain concentration.The stable hydrogen isotope ratio of H 2 is relatively light (-700‰--820‰).The stable carbon isotope ratio of propylene ranges from -27‰ to -40‰,which coincides with the rule of change of the stable carbon isotope of kerogen at the corresponding horizon.The charac...     

Anti-proliferative activity of phlorotannin extracts from brown algae Laminaria japonica Aresch

In this study,we evaluated the anti-proliferative activity of phlorotannins derived from brown algae Laminaria japonica Aresch extracts on the human hepatocellular carcinoma cell (BEL-7402) and on murine leukemic cells (P388) by MTT assay.Cells were incubated with 100 μg/mL of the phlorotannin extract (PE) for 48 h.The inhibitory rate of PE on BEL-7402 and P388 cells was 30.20±1.16% and 43.44±1.86%,respectively,and the half-inhibitory concentration of PE (IC50) on P388 and BEL-7402 cells was 120 μg/mL and >...     

De-eutrophication of effluent wastewater from fish aquaculture by using marine green alga Ulva pertusa

The de-eutrophication abilities and characteristics of Ulva pertusa, a marine green alga, were investigated in Qingdao Yihai Hatchery Center from spring to summer in 2005 by analyzing the dynamic changes in NH+4, NOˉ3, NO2ˉ as well as the total dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN). The results show that the effluent wastewater produced by fish aquaculture had typical eutrophication levels with an average of 34.3 μmol L-1 DIN. This level far exceeded the level IV quality of the national seawater standard and c...     

礁滩体与建设性成岩作用

礁、礁丘、丘同属碳酸盐建隆,礁、滩是重要勘探目的层。但各自在沉积组分、组构、环境和时空分布,以及油气地质条件上迥然不同,因而无论从理论还是勘探实践上,都有必要将其各成体系划分开来。礁滩自身为好储集岩,当建设性成岩作用叠加后可形成好的储层。碳酸盐岩优质储层形成,主要受沉积微相与建设性成岩作用两大因素控制。前者是基础,并以高能的礁滩相带为最好;后者主要包括破裂、白云石化和溶蚀三大类,并以白云石化或溶蚀为最优,其中的溶蚀分布最广泛、影响最深刻而对优质储层形成起决定性作用。礁滩储层中的古岩溶类型最为丰富多彩,包括同生期、准同生期、表生期和埋藏期热流体岩溶的所有类型,白云岩化礁滩体也不例外。其中,同生-准同生期岩溶的形成机制与礁滩沉积时高频层序旋回向上变浅序列的短暂暴露淋溶有关,表生期岩溶则受控于礁滩沉积后三级层序旋回Ⅰ型界面的暴露淋溶。由此,导致礁滩储层中除了可以也是(碳酸盐岩中)唯一保存原生孔隙外,还发育了次生溶蚀孔洞缝和大型溶洞。礁丘、灰泥丘尤其是丘间洼地中发育高有机质丰度烃源岩;它们自身没有有效的原生孔隙,但岩溶作用可以形成次生孔隙。     

浮游有孔虫个体大小对硼同位素分析的影响

对比分析了太平洋(Site 806)、大西洋(Site 664)和加勒比海地区(Site 999)末次冰期最盛期和全新世钻孔顶部不同尺寸大小的浮游有孔虫Globigerinoides sacculifer(500～600μm和300～355μm)和Globi-gerinoides ruber(300～355μm和250～300μm)的硼同位素组分变化,发现个体相对较小的有孔虫样品由于受到样品量以及样品前处理过程的影响,其硼同位素在末次冰期最盛期出现异常,浮游有孔虫硼同位素分析,尤其是冰期-间冰期时间尺度上的硼同位素分析,适合用个体相对较大的有孔虫。末次冰期最盛期太平洋和加勒比海地区溶解作用可能加强,其G.sacculifer的硼同位素偏低,但G.ruber的硼同位素不受溶解作用的影响,能够反映末次冰期海水pH值的变化。三个钻孔末次冰期最盛期G.ruber的硼同位素比全新世的硼同位素平均高(1.3±1.2)‰(2s.e.),与理论预测值1.6‰一致。     

古沙漠记录的沉积体系及层序地层研究进展——以鄂尔多斯盆地白垩系为例

鄂尔多斯盆地白垩纪古沙漠沉积地层主要为冲积扇、湖泊、河流、三角洲及沙漠沉积体系.风成沉积和沙漠沉积、风成沉积体系和沙漠沉积体系等概念有必要予以区分.基准面变化是沙漠和河流、湖泊等其他陆相地层对比的基础.鄂尔多斯盆地志丹群划分为上下两个三级层序单元,反映了两期古沙漠由风成沉积强盛期到衰退期的演化,且每个层序可划分为低位、...     

南堡凹陷东营组高精度层序地层格架及沉积体系分析

在高分辨率三维地震、钻井以及大量地质资料研究基础上,根据层序地层界面特征,将南堡凹陷东营组划分为1个二级层序和4个三级层序。以初始洪泛面和最大洪泛面识别特征为依据,进一步将三级层序划分出体系域。通过层序地层格架特征及其发育位置分析,认为柳南次凹层序地层格架发育的主控因素为构造、物源和湖平面变化。应用层序地层学原理及南堡凹陷沉积充填背景研究,认为柳南次凹的沉积体系类型为冲积扇、扇三角洲、水下扇、重力流及湖泊沉积体系。冲积扇及水下扇体系在低位体系域中发育,高位体系域中扇三角洲体系和重力流发育,湖扩体系域中湖泊体系非常发育。     

滇东地区煤田构造格局与煤系赋存规律的研究

滇东地区位于特提斯和环太平洋构造体系的交接部位,煤田构造格局的总体特征是呈NNE向条带状展布。区内断层以NNE、NE向为主,受主要断裂影响,煤田在南北向呈带状,东西向呈段状展布,各煤矿区在平面上呈NE向带状分布。研究区煤系赋存受基底主干断裂的控制作用明显,变形强度由北向南逐渐增强,北部地区以褶皱构造为主,断层较少,煤层多保存于向斜构造中,保存较完整,煤层埋藏较深;南部受弥勒-师宗断裂带影响,断裂构造极为发育,对煤层破坏严重,煤系赋存不稳定。     

水平层状介质中侧向电阻率测井快速迭代反演与应用

侧向电阻率测井由于具有较好的探测深度和较高的纵向分辨率而成为油储地球物理测井中的一种重要方法,是确定储层中油气含量的最方要手段。然而,当地层的厚度小于基纵向分辨率时,由于受井眼泥浆和上下围岩等的影响,实测的视电阻率以已无法反映地层电阻率的起初变化,给油气层的划分及油储层的定量评价带有极大的困难,因此,研究侧向电阻率测井反演不论在理论上还是实际应用上均有非常重要的意义。
