济阳坳陷孤北低潜山煤成气成藏条件及特征

以往济阳坳陷所探明的天然气几乎均为油型气,为了打开济阳坳陷煤成气勘探局面,通过研究已获煤成气流的孤北低潜山成藏特征,在综合运用录井、岩心、地化分析、测井及地震等资料基础上,分析构造演化特征,结果显示：孤北低潜山上古生界经历了印支期抬升剥蚀、燕山期中生界沉积后的抬升剥蚀等多次改造,至喜山期受埕南及孤北断层控制大幅沉降沉积后在馆陶组沉积时期开始大量二次生气;而埕南、孤北断层明化镇组沉积早期停止活动更为气藏的保存提供了保障,该低潜山气源充足、储层条件好、盖层条件优越,具有形成煤成气藏的条件。结果认为：本区气藏具有自生自储、上生下储和上生侧储3种运聚方式,除孤北低潜山的上古生界气藏之外,该区的下古生界风化壳和该区以南孤岛凸起的下古生界也是煤成气藏勘探的重要领域。

Geochemical characteristics and isotopic reversal of natural gases in eastern Kopeh-Dagh,NE Iran

Natural gas samples from two gas fields located in Eastern Kopeh-Dagh area were analyzed for molecular and stable isotope compositions. The gaseous hydrocarbons in both Lower Cretaceous clastic reservoir and Upper Jurassic carbonate reservoir are coal-type gases mainly derived from type III kerogen, however enriched δD values of methane implies presence of type II kerogen related material in the source rock. In comparison Upper Jurassic carbonate reservoir gases show higher dryness coefficient resulted through TSR, while presence of C₁C₅ gases in Lower Cretaceous clastic reservoir exhibit no TSR phenomenon. Carbon isotopic values indicate gas to gas cracking and TSR occurrence in the Upper Jurassic carbonate reservoir, as the result of elevated temperature experienced, prior to the following uplifts in last 33–37 million years. The δ¹³C of carbon dioxide and δ³⁴S of hydrogen sulfide in Upper Jurassic carbonate reservoir do not primarily reflect TSR, as uplift related carbonate rock dissolution by acidic gases and reaction/precipitation of light H₂S have changed these values severely. Gaseous hydrocarbons in both reservoirs exhibit enrichment in C₂ gas member, with the carbonate reservoir having higher values resulted through mixing with highly-mature-completely-reversed shale gases. It is likely that the uplifts have lifted off the pressure on shale gases, therefore facilitated the migration of the gases into overlying horizons. However it appears that the released gases during the first major uplift (33–37 million years ago) have migrated to both reservoirs, while the second migrated gases have only mixed with Upper Jurassic carbonate reservoir gases. The studied data suggesting that economic accumulations of natural gas/shale gases deeper than Upper Jurassic carbonate reservoir would be unlikely.     

Reconnaissance study of organic geochemistry and petrology of Paleozoic-Cenozoic potential hydrocarbon source rocks from the New Siberian Islands,Arctic Russia

A reconnaissance study of potential hydrocarbon source rocks of Paleozoic to Cenozoic age from the highly remote New Siberian Islands Archipelago (Russian Arctic) was carried out. 101 samples were collected from outcrops representing the principal Paleozoic-Cenozoic units across the entire archipelago. Organic petrological and geochemical analyses (vitrinite reflectance measurements, Rock-Eval pyrolysis, GC-MS) were undertaken in order to screen the maturity, quality and quantity of the organic matter in the outcrop samples. The lithology varies from continental sedimentary rocks with coal particles to shallow marine carbonates and deep marine black shales. Several organic-rich intervals were identified in the Upper Paleozoic to Lower Cenozoic succession. Lower Devonian shales were found to have the highest source rock potential of all Paleozoic units. Middle Carboniferous-Permian and Triassic units appear to have a good potential for natural gas formation. Late Mesozoic (Cretaceous) and Cenozoic low-rank coals, lignites, and coal-bearing sandstones also display a potential for gas generation. Kerogen type III (humic, gas-prone) dominates in most of the samples, and indicates deposition in lacustrine to coastal paleoenvironments. Most of the samples (except some of Cretaceous and Paleogene age) reached oil window maturities, whereas the Devonian to Carboniferous units shared a maturity mainly within the gas window.     

南黄海中部隆起CSDP-2井中—古生界烃源岩精细评价

CSDP-2井是在南黄海中部隆起上首钻的全取心深钻,在新近系之下钻遇下三叠统青龙组—上奥陶统多套碎屑岩和碳酸盐岩地层。钻井揭示的烃源岩有机质丰度、类型、热演化程度、可溶有机物分析及生烃强度计算证实,中部隆起发育倾油型的青龙组上段灰岩、上奥陶统—下志留统上部泥岩、油气型的石炭系中—上部灰岩3套有效烃源岩;生气为主的有效烃源岩主要为大隆组—龙潭组泥岩和炭质泥岩、栖霞组上部富含炭质的臭灰岩、石炭系中—下部灰岩和底部炭质泥岩。目前钻井揭示的中—古生界总生烃强度是(20.761 9~31.283 9)×108 m3气当量/km2,与国内外大中型气田分布区域的生气强度相当。其中,油源岩的总生油强度为(43.076~55.30)×104 t/km2,气源岩的总生气强度为(16.454 3~25.753 9)×108 m3/km2;同时,烃源岩的总生气强度是生油强度的4~5倍,碎屑岩的生烃强度是灰岩的2倍以上。巨大的生烃强度和多源层供烃为形成大—中型的油气聚集和成藏提供了充分的物质基础,显示了南黄海中部隆起中—古生界良好的油气勘探前景。     

由上下扬子对比探讨南黄海中—古生界油气保存条件

为了探讨南黄海中—古生界油气保存条件,开展了上下扬子中—古生界构造演化、生储盖组合等对比分析。结果显示：印支和燕山运动对南黄海中—古生界的影响大大强于上扬子四川盆地,致使三叠系残留厚度较薄;推测南黄海中—古生界盖层以泥岩为主,膏盐岩为辅,其中泥岩盖层以下寒武统、下志留统和上二叠统为主,膏盐岩盖层则以中下三叠统为主。综合研究认为,烟台坳陷和崂山隆起以下寒武统或下志留统的泥岩为主要盖层,推测可形成威远型气藏;而青岛坳陷和勿南沙隆起以上二叠统泥岩为直接盖层,中下三叠统膏盐岩为间接盖层,推测可形成五百梯型或建南型气藏。南黄海盆地间接盖层缺乏,但下古生界具有良好的生烃潜力和保存条件,因此,南黄海盆地应重视下古生界页岩气的勘探和开发。     

Formation of low permeability reservoirs and gas accumulation process in the Daniudi Gas Field,Northeast Ordos Basin,China

The Daniudi Gas Field is a typical large-scale coal-generated wet gas field located in the northeastern Ordos Basin that contains multiple Upper Paleozoic gas-bearing layers and considerable reserves of gas. Based on integrated analysis of reservoir petrology, carbonate cement C–O isotope, geochemistry of source rocks and HC gas and numerical basin modeling, a comprehensive study focusing on the formation of low permeability reservoirs and gas generation process uncovers a different gas accumulation scene in Daniudi Gas Field. The gas accumulation discovered was controlled by the reservoir permeability reduction and gas generation process, and can be divided into two distinct stages by the low permeability reservoir formation time: before the low permeability reservoir formation, the less matured gas was driven by buoyancy, migrated laterally towards NE and then accumulated in NE favorable traps during Late Triassic to early Early Cretaceous; after the low permeability reservoir formation, highly matured gas was driven by excessive pressure, migrated vertically and accumulated in-situ or near the gas-generating centers during early to late Early Cretaceous. The coupling relationship between reservoir diagenetic evolution and gas generation process controlled on gas accumulation of the Daniudi Gas Field. This study will aid in understanding the gas accumulation process and planning further E&D of the Upper Paleozoic super-imposed gas layers in the whole Ordos Basin and other similar super-imposed low permeability gas layer basins.     

东海陆架盆地南部深部地层格架与油气资源潜力

东海陆架盆地是发育于西太平洋边缘的前中生代克拉通基础上的中、新生代坳陷-断陷-坳陷叠合型盆地,蕴藏着丰富的油气资源,但深层（上三叠统—白垩系）由于埋藏深,区域构造背景、地球物理场、构造演化复杂,温度场、压力场与应力场变化大,地质结构改造强烈,油气成藏过程复杂,影响了对盆地深层烃源岩与油气生、排、聚潜力综合评价。因此,本文在利用前人研究成果的基础上,综合应用钻井、地球物理和浙闽陆域资料,通过区域地震地质解释和井-震标定,将东海陆架盆地南部深层划分出上三叠统—中侏罗统、上侏罗统和白垩系3个二级构造层序,建立了深部层序格架和层序演化序列,明确了深部主要发育上三叠统—下侏罗统和下白垩统两套受海侵影响或海相泥页岩烃源岩,提出东海陆架盆地南部深层总生烃能力和平均资源丰度较大,具有可观的油气资源潜力,是今后东海深部油气勘探值得探索的重要领域。     

Reservoir quality along a homoclinal carbonate ramp deposit: The Permian Upper Dalan Formation,South Pars Field,Persian Gulf Basin

Permo-Triassic carbonate successions host some of the largest oil and gas reserves in the Arabian Plate, including the world's largest gas reservoirs of the Upper Dalan and the Kangan formations in the South Pars Gas Field, Persian Gulf Basin. Both formations are stratigraphically equivalent to the Upper Khuff Formation which has been long recognized as a major oil and gas reservoir in the Arabian Peninsula. The Permian Upper Dalan Formation is composed mainly of mixed carbonate-evaporite sequences that formed on a laterally continuous homoclinal carbonate ramp with significant variations in reservoir heterogeneity and quality. They can be grouped in 18 microfacies. High reservoir qualities are found within high-energy shoal environments with a tendency of the best reservoir quality to occur towards the basin in a mid-ramp setting. In contrast, low-energy tidal flat environments exhibit the poorest reservoir quality. Reservoir quality from lagoonal environments is diverse. Diagenesis has significantly affected reservoir properties by both enhancing and destroying original porosity and permeability. Bivariate plots of porosity and permeability values, combined with thin section petrography indicate that pore-filling “pervasive” and poikilotopic anhydrite cements had the greatest negative impact on the reservoir quality whereas dolomitization and dissolution of grains and cements played the most positive role. Two third-order sequence stratigraphic cycles link lithologies and depositional environments to sea-level fluctuations. HSTs are associated with better reservoir characteristics than TSTs.     

Organic geochemical study of source rocks and natural gas and their genetic correlation in the eastern part of the Polish Outer Carpathians and Palaeozoic–Mesozoic basement

Geochemical characteristics of organic matter in the profiles of Dukla, Silesian, Sub-Silesian and Skole units of the Polish Outer Carpathians and of the Palaeozoic–Mesozoic basement in the Dębica-Rzeszów-Leżajsk-Sanok area were established based on Rock-Eval, vitrinite reflectance, isotopic and biomarker analyses of 485 rock samples. The Oligocene Menilite beds have the best hydrocarbon potential of all investigated formations within the Dukla, Silesian, and Skole units. The Ordovician, Silurian, Lower Devonian and locally Middle Jurassic strata of the Palaeozoic–Mesozoic basement are potential source rocks for oil and gas accumulated in Palaeozoic and Mesozoic reservoirs. Thirty one natural gas samples from sandstone reservoirs of the Lower Cretaceous-Lower Miocene strata within the Outer Carpathian sequence and eight from sandstone and carbonate reservoirs of the Palaeozoic–Mesozoic basement were analysed for molecular and isotopic compositions to determine their origin. Natural gases accumulated both in the Outer Carpathian and the Palaeozoic–Mesozoic basement reservoirs are genetically related to thermogenic and microbial processes. Thermogenic gaseous hydrocarbons that accumulated in the Dukla and Silesian units were generated from the Menilite beds. Thermogenic gaseous hydrocarbons that accumulated in the Sub-Silesian Unit most probably migrated from the Silesian Unit. Initial, and probably also secondary microbial methane component has been generated during microbial carbon dioxide reduction within the Oligocene Menilite beds in the Dukla Unit and Oligocene-Lower Miocene Krosno beds in the Silesian Unit. Natural gases that accumulated in traps within the Middle Devonian, Mississippian, Upper Jurassic, and Upper Cretaceous reservoirs of the Palaeozoic–Mesozoic basement were mainly generated during thermogenic processes and only sporadically from initial microbial processes. The thermogenic gases were generated from kerogen of the Ordovician-Silurian and Middle Jurassic strata. The microbial methane component occurs in a few fields of the Dukla and Silesian units and in the two accumulations in the Middle Devonian reservoirs of the Palaeozoic–Mesozoic basement.

Petroleum retention in the Mandal Formation,Central Graben,Norway

Upper Jurassic organic matter-rich, marine shales of the Mandal Formation have charged major petroleum accumulations in the North Sea Central Graben including the giant Ekofisk field which straddles the graben axis. Recent exploration of marginal basin positions such as the Mandal High area or the Søgne Basin has been less successful, raising the question as to whether charging is an issue, possibly related to high thermal stability of the source organic matter or delayed expulsion from source to carrier.The Mandal Formation is in part a very prolific source rock containing mainly Type II organic matter with <12 wt.-% TOC and HI < 645 mg HC/g TOC but Type III-influenced organofacies are also present. The formation is therefore to varying degrees heterogeneous. Here we show, using geochemical mass balance modelling, that the petroleum expulsion efficiency of the Mandal Formation is relatively low as compared to the Upper Jurassic Draupne Formation, the major source rock in the Viking Graben system. Using maturity series of different initial source quality from structurally distinct regions and encompassing depositional environments from proximal to distal facies, we have examined the relationship between free hydrocarbon retention and organic matter structure. The aromaticity of the original and matured petroleum precursors in the Mandal source rock plays a major role in its gas retention capacity as cross-linked monoaromatic rings act on the outer surface of kerogen as sorptive sites. However, oil retention is a function of both kerogen and involatile bitumen compositions. Slight variations in total petroleum retention capacities within the same kerogen yields suggest that texture of organic matter (e.g. organic porosity) could play a role as well.     

南沙海域礼乐盆地中生界油气资源潜力

Depositional environment and hydrocarbon source potential of the Oligocene Ruslar Formation (Kamchia Depression; Western Black Sea)

The Oligocene Ruslar Formation is a hydrocarbon source rock in the Kamchia Depression, located in the Western Black Sea area. Depositional environment and source potential of the predominantly pelitic rocks were investigated using core and cuttings samples from four offshore wells. In these wells the Ruslar Formation is up to 500 m thick. Based on lithology and well logs, the Ruslar Formation is subdivided from base to top into units I–VI. Dysoxic to anoxic conditions and mesohaline to euhaline salinities prevailed during deposition of the Ruslar Formation. Relatively high oxygen contents occurred during early Solenovian times (lower part of unit II), when brackish surface water favoured nannoplankton blooms and the deposition of bright marls (“Solenovian event”). Anoxic conditions with photic zone anoxia were established during late Oligocene times (units III and IV) and, probably, reflect a basin-wide anoxic event in the Eastern Paratethys during Kalmykian times. Organic carbon content in the Ruslar Formation is up to 3%. Autochthonous aquatic and allochthonous terrigenous biomass contribute to the organic matter. Relatively high amounts of aquatic organic matter occur in the lower part of the Ruslar Formation (units I and II) and in its upper part (unit VI). Diatoms are especially abundant in the lower part of unit VI. The kerogen is of type III and II with HI values ranging from 50 to 400 mgHC/gTOC. Units I and II (Pshekian, lower Solenovian) are characterized by a fair (to good) potential to produce gas and oil, but potential sources for gas and oil also occur in the Upper Oligocene units IV–VI.     

西南非海岸盆地中生界构造-沉积特征与成藏条件

西南非海岸盆地位于南大西洋的非洲海岸地区,由上侏罗—下白垩统裂谷盆地和上白垩—全新统被动陆缘盆地叠合形成,是一个热点油气勘探区。在调研国外油气地质研究的基础上,根据地震、测井资料,详细描述了西南非海岸盆地在中生代的构造形态与沉积充填特征,明确了其纵向演化与横向迁移规律,并依据已知油气田的钻井与测试资料,综合分析了盆地油气富集的基本地质条件。研究表明,西南非海岸盆地始形成于侏罗纪晚期,早期以剧烈的断裂与火山活动为特点,裂谷盆地内部填充大量砂岩和页岩;在经历白垩纪巴雷姆期与阿普特期的过渡阶段后,于阿尔布期进入被动陆缘阶段,在过渡与被动陆缘阶段,盆地内部以细粒海相沉积为主,可见少量碳酸盐岩与盐岩。盆地阿普特阶主力烃源岩与其上覆的上白垩统碎屑岩储层共同组成了油气成藏组合。     

南海北部神狐海域天然气水合物分布的主控因素

针对天然气水合物沉积成矿因素不明确等问题,通过利用南海北部神狐海域的高分辨率三维地震、测井和岩心等资料,对晚中新世以来的地层进行了高分辨率层序划分和精细的沉积解释。从温压、沉积、构造等方面探讨了神狐海域天然气水合物分布的主控因素,认为:BSR上部附近处于水合物稳定温压范围内;粗粒沉积物有利于天然气水合物的富集;在含水合物层段内,孔隙度与天然气水合物饱合度成正比关系;滑塌体是天然气水合物赋存的有利相带;气烟囱形成过程中产生的断裂系统可为富含甲烷流体向上运移提供通道,并在其上部滑塌体富集成矿。因此,神狐海域具备天然气水合物成藏的优越条件,是天然气水合物勘探开发的有利区块。     

Source rocks and petroleum systems in the Hungarian part of the Pannonian Basin: The potential for shale gas and shale oil plays

The objectives of our study were to assess the thickness, lateral extent, organic richness and maturity of the potential source rocks in Hungary and to estimate the volumes of hydrocarbons generated, in order that potential shale gas and shale oil plays could be identified and characterised.The Upper Triassic Kössen Marl in south-west Hungary could represent the best potential shale gas/shale oil play, due to its high organic richness, high maturity and the presence of fracture barriers. The area of gas- and oil-generative maturity is around 720 km² with the unexpelled petroleum estimated to be up to 9 billion barrel oil-equivalent.The Lower Jurassic sediments of the Mecsek Mountains and under the Great Plain contain fair quality gas-prone source rocks, with low shale gas potential, except for a thin Toarcian shale unit which is richer in organic matter. The latter could form a potential shale gas play under the Great Hungarian Plain, if it is thicker locally.The Lower Oligocene Tard Clay in north-east Hungary could represent the second best potential shale oil play, due to its organic richness, favourable maturity and large areal extent (4500 km²) with around 7 billion barrel oil-equivalent estimated in-place volume of petroleum.Middle Miocene marine formations could represent locally-developed shale gas plays; they have fair amounts of organic matter and a mixture of type II/III kerogen, but their vertical and lateral variability is high.The Upper Miocene lacustrine Endrőd Marl contains less organic matter and the kerogen is mainly type III, which is not favourable for shale gas generation. The high carbonate and clay content, plus the lack of upper and lower fracture barriers would represent additional production challenges.
