西北地区侏罗纪煤系烃源岩和油气地球化学特征

阿尔金断裂以北的新疆地区煤系泥岩和煤均很发育,而以南的甘青宁地区湖相和沼泽相泥岩发育。煤系烃源岩中主要的成烃显微组分是壳质体、藻类体、基质镜质体等,有机质类型以Ⅲ型为主;煤系泥岩一般为中到差油源岩,少数为好烃源岩,煤一般为差油源岩,下侏罗统源岩生烃潜力高于中侏罗统源岩;煤系原油一般为成熟的轻质、中蜡、低凝固点、低硫优质原油;油源对比表明煤系泥岩是主要烃源岩,煤和碳质泥岩是次要烃源岩;有利生油区域基本分布在侏罗纪的沉降沉积中心,而且后续埋藏又较深的山前坳陷区域。

齐古油田的原油来源于准噶尔盆地南缘中、下侏罗统的煤系地层.具有饱和烃与芳烃含量高,Pr/Ph>2.5的特征.原油与母岩的碳同位素组成有较好的一致性,都富集重组分.色质分析结果表明,离子特征峰具有典型陆源高等植物输入的标志.泥岩有机质的显微富氢组分占20%以上,它们富集于河流三角洲和水下冲积扇等地.在弱还原-还原环境的低演化阶段形成天然气,也能形成石油,在该盆地沿边缘呈带状分布。     

鄂尔多斯盆地延安组煤有机岩石学研究

鄂尔多斯盆地侏罗纪延安组煤系地层可否成为该盆地另一套油源岩的问题,历来存有争议。系统的煤岩和有机岩石学分析表明:煤中倾油性的壳质组分含量低,基质镜质体的类型也不利于生油,因此,延安组煤系有机质不大可能形成具有工业价值的煤成油藏     

中国西北侏罗纪煤系显微组分热解油生物标志物特征及其意义

从西北地区侏罗纪煤中分离出来的不同显微组分热解油生物标志物总体上比较相似,但在一些特殊生物标志物的分布上存在明显差异。藻类体、孢子体、角质体热解油Pr/Ph比值一般在1.5～2.0之间,镜质体和基质镜质体热解油Pr/Ph比值在3～4之间,但均只有相应原煤抽提物Pr/Ph比值的一半。在常规生物标志物甾烷和萜烷组成中,藻类体和孢子体含有相对丰富的C27甾烷,角质体其次,镜质体和基质镜质体C27甾烷含量很低或者基本不含C27甾烷;藻类体和角质体含有较高的伽马蜡烷,而与藻类体来自相同原煤的孢子体伽马蜡烷含量很低;镜质体和基质镜质体基本上不含伽马蜡烷;分离显微组分的原煤伽马蜡烷含量均很低。由此可见,伽马蜡烷的含量不仅与有机质沉积水体的盐度有关,与母源的成分也有关系。显微组分热解油与煤系原油生物标志物组成特征对比表明,煤系原油是藻类体、孢子体、角质体等富氢组分和相对贫氢的镜质组生成产物的混合物。不同油气藏中的原油,每一类显微组分的贡献可能不尽相同,有些原油可能主要来源于藻类体和孢子体等富氢显微组分,而有些原油除了富氢显微组分有贡献外,镜质组对其也有一定的贡献,但富氢显微组分应该是煤系含油气盆地中主要的生油显微组分。     

Organic petrology and source rock potential of sediments in the Eromanga Basin, South Australia

Cuttings and cores from the Poolowanna 1 well, Eromanga Basin, South Australia (in which oil was discovered in Lower Jurassic reservoirs) and the Macumba 1 well (no oil) have been analyzed petrographically to assess the nature of the coals and dispersed organic matter present. The Jurassic and Cretaceous coals have medium to high vitrinite contents, low to relatively high exinite, and medium to low inertinite contents. The dispersed organic matter has comparatively less vitrinite, more exinite and/or more inertinite than the associated coals. The microlithotype compositions of the coals indicate that the original vegetation was largely woody in character and was buried before much oxidation had occurred.The Jurassic sediments contain up to 2% dispersed organic matter by volume, 0–75% of which is exinite, including alginite. Vitrinite reflectances range from 0.5 to 0.7%. Where sufficiently mature, the Jurassic sediments are good potential source rocks for hydrocarbons.Statistical testing of the analytical results for the Jurassic Poolowanna Formation using Kendall's τ as a measure of dependence shows that there is a significant association between the macerals in coal and dispersed organic matter. The ratio of exinite to inertinite in dispersed organic matter is reasonably well predicted by the corresponding ratio in the associated coal.     

煤岩显微组份和全煤热解色谱分析

随着石油勘探的深入和发展，煤和含煤沉积的生油问题，已经越来越引起人们的重视。为此，笔者选择了准噶尔盆地侏罗系富氢组份含量高的煤样和富镜质组的煤岩样品，采用快速热解法，对其显微组份和全煤的热解生烃潜势进行了研究。结果表明:（１）Ｒ_０值为０.３７～０.３９％的未成熟煤岩样品中，壳质组和镜质组在３５０～４５０℃温度区间有最大热解峰面积Ｓ_２。（２）富氢组份含量高的样品中，热解产物以正构烷烃＋正构烯烃为主，其次为芳烃化合物。（３）镜质组或富镜质组的煤岩样品中，Ａ１６００/Ｍｇ值较高时，热解产物在Ｃ_６-Ｃ_１５范围内，某些芳烃化合物成为主峰。（４）惰性组生烃能力最差，在较高温度下，形成含量很低的正构烷烃和烯烃，或在气态烃范畴产生少量烃类，或基本不产生热解产物。（５）随着加热时间的延长或原煤样品演化程度的升高，烯烃含量减少或消失，可能是干酪根转化过程中的残余氢为烯烃的氢化作用提供了氢源，使烯烃转化为烷烃的缘故。     

准噶尔盆地侏罗系生烃特征有机岩石学研究

Catagenesis of organic matter of oil source rocks in Upper Paleozoic coal formation of the Bohai Gulf basin (eastern China)

The Bohai Gulf basin is the largest petroliferous basin in China. Its Carboniferous-Permian deposits are thick (on the average, ca. 600 m) and occur as deeply as 5000 m. Coal and carbonaceous shale of the Carboniferous Taiyuan Formation formed in inshore plain swamps. Their main hydrocarbon-generating macerals are fluorescent vitrinite, exinite, alginite, etc. Coal and carbonaceous shale of the Permian Shanxi Formation were deposited in delta-alluvial plain. Their main hydrocarbon-generating macerals are vitrinite, exinite, etc. The carbonaceous rocks of these formations are characterized by a high thermal maturity, with the vitrinite reflectance R⁰ > 2.0%. The Bohai Gulf basin has been poorly explored so far, but it is highly promising for natural gas.     

Geochemical Evidence for Coal and Carbonaceous Mudstone as the Possible Major Oil Source Rock in the Jurassic Turpan Basin,Northwest China

Petroleum geologists have debated whether the hydrocarbons from Jurassic coal measures are derived from the coals, carbonaceous mudstones or coal-measure mudstones in the Turpan Basin. Based on the geochemistry analysis of the 20 crude oils and 40 source rocks from the Turpan Basin, some data have been obtained as follows: carbon preference index and methylphenanthrene index of the Jurassic oils are 1.16–1.45 and 0.28–0.80, and the ααα C29 sterane 20S/(20S+20R) and C29 sterane ββ/(ββ+αα) are 0.44–0.51 and 0.4–0.54 respectively, which show the normal maturity of oils; the vitrinite reflectance of the source rocks from the Xishanyao to Badaowan Formations range from 0.47% to 0.97%, which indicate immature to mature thermal evolutionary stage and sufficient conditions for generating mass mature oil. The effect of hydrocarbon expulsion should be considered when studying the source of coal-derived oil by using Biomarkers. Biomarkers in the Jurassic oils from the basin are similar to those in the coals and carbonaceous mudstones, with a strong predominant content of pristane, relatively high ratio of C15/C16 sesquiterpenoids (>1), a relatively high content of low carbon number tricyclic terpanes and C24 tetracyclic terpane, little gammacerane and C29 Ts detected, an absolute predominant content of C29 sterane and a relatively high content of diasterane. However, the opposite characteristics are shown in mudstones, with an approximately equal content of pristane and phytane, relatively low ratio of C15/C16 sesquiterpenoids (<1), a relatively high content of high carbon number tricyclic terpanes and a low content of C24 tetracyclic terpane, peaks of gammacerane and C29 Ts detected obviously and an increasing C27 sterane content. All of these characteristics identify the coals and carbonaceous mudstones as the possible major oil source rocks in this area, and they were formed in the stronger oxidizing environment with shallower water than mudstones.     

准噶尔盆地西北缘车排子凸起原油类型与油源

准噶尔盆地西北缘南部红车断裂带- 车排子凸起油气藏众多,原油物理化学性质和地球化学特征十分复杂,原油类型及其来源长期存在很大争议。本文在准噶尔盆地不同时代烃源岩生成原油典型地球化学特征与主要油源判识指标归纳总结的基础上,对红车断裂带- 车排子凸起原油地球化学特征和来源进行系统分析研究,将该区域原油分为五类,其中三类原油分别来源于二叠系湖相烃源岩、中—下侏罗统煤系烃源岩、古近系安集海河组湖相烃源岩,另外两类为混合原油,分别为来源于二叠系湖相烃源岩的生物降解稠油与中—下侏罗统煤系烃源岩生成的正常原油和古近系湖相烃源岩生成的正常原油的混合原油。红车断裂带石炭系—白垩系油藏原油主要来源于沙湾凹陷二叠系湖相烃源岩,车排子凸起东北部春风油田稠油来源于沙湾凹陷二叠系湖相烃源岩;车排子凸起东侧- 红车断裂带西侧新近系沙湾组油藏轻质原油来源于四棵树凹陷古近系湖相烃源岩;车排子凸起中部春光油田白垩系—古近系油藏稠油为二叠系来源稠油和侏罗系正常原油的混合原油,新近系沙湾组油藏稠油为二叠系来源稠油与新近系正常原油的混合原油;车排子凸起西部石炭系—古近系油藏轻质原油来源于四棵树凹陷中—下侏罗统煤系烃源岩,而新近系沙湾组油藏轻质原油来源于四棵树凹陷古近系湖相烃源岩。本文对准噶尔盆地西北缘南部地区油气藏成藏研究及区域油气勘探决策具有重要参考作用。     

准噶尔盆地南缘褶皱冲断带断裂输导石油效率评价

为了评价准噶尔盆地南缘褶皱冲断带断裂输导原油效率,通过定义断裂输导系数和分析原油成藏过程有效性,建立了断裂输导石油效率评价方法。评价结果表明,断裂输导系数沿着褶皱冲断带呈带状分布,高效断裂输导区主要位于托斯台背斜、独山子背斜、安集海背斜、霍尔果斯背斜及其以南、吐谷鲁背斜、清水河断鼻和齐古背斜等地区。高效断裂输导区内,第一排构造带断裂输导效率最高,第二排构造带次之,第三排构造带相对最低。研究区独山子油田、霍尔果斯油田、吐谷鲁油田、齐古油田等均分布在高效断裂输导范围内,表明高效断裂输导是准南褶皱冲断带原油成藏的重要条件之一。     

Hydrocarbon genesis of Jurassic coal measures in the Turpan Basin, China

A typical case of coal-derived oils in China, i.e. the crude oils from the Middle-Lower Jurassic coal measure strata in the Turpan Basin, is presented. By means of oil-source correlation, it is confirmed that low maturity crude oil in the Shengjinkou oil field is derived from the coal-bearing Qiketai Formation of Middle Jurassic age, a brackish lacustrine sediment. Mature crude oils in the Qiketai oil field, and in well Taican 1, are sourced from the Badaowan Formation of Lower Jurassic age, which contains coal seams as thick as 100 m. Results show that commercial accumulations of liquid crude oils can be generated from coals and coal measure strata containing high volatile coal of bituminous rank. Despite unfavourable types of source material, the total hydrocarbon-generating potential can be great due to the unusual abundance of organic matter.     

吐哈盆地西部地区高蜡凝析油和轻质油的地球化学特征及成因分析

吐哈盆地西部地区中、新生界储层中广泛分布着轻质油和凝析油。这些原油具有低密度、低粘度、中等—高含蜡量的特点 ,含蜡量为 5 .5 %～ 2 2 .1% ,高分子量正构烷烃 (n C35～ n C87)含量较高 ,属中—高蜡轻质油或凝析油 ,其地球化学特征及成因机理既不同于常规的高蜡原油 ,又不同于一般意义上的凝析油。吐哈盆地中、新生界高蜡凝析油或轻质油主要来源于侏罗系湖相泥岩和煤系地层中泥岩或煤 ,其形成主要取决于烃源岩的有机显微组分和有机质演化程度。研究区侏罗系湖相泥岩和煤系地层泥岩或煤岩中有机显微组分均以镜质组和壳质组为主 ,壳质组中角质体和木栓质体含量较高 ,具备了既可形成凝析油 ,又可形成高蜡油的条件。由于镜质组与部分壳质组演化形成烃类化合物的活化能相当 ,因此又具备高蜡油与凝析油共生的地球化学条件     

The contribution of bacteria to organic matter in coal-measure source rocks

On the basis of GC–MS analysis, a suite of nine coal-measure source rocks (Ro 0.51%–0.63%) from the southern margin of Junggar basin was found to contain many biomarkers for bacterially-generated hydrocarbons: hopane, sesquiterpene, C₂₃+ monomethyl alkanes (even carbon predominance), and C₂₄+ alkyl cyclohexane. Rock–eval and microscope analysis indicate that vitrinite (especially desmocollinite and homocollinite) plays a significant role in the generation of hydrocarbons in coal-measure source rocks. Vitrinite performs this role by absorbing ultramicroscopic organic matter, generally in the form of resins or bacterial plastids. C₂₃+ monomethyl alkanes (even carbon predominance) and C₂₄+ alkyl cyclohexane series compounds are derived from bacterial metabolites of higher plants. The ultramicro organic matter adsorbed by vitrinite source rocks in the study area is probably ultramicro bacterial plastids. Because the organic matter of higher plants with low hydrogen content has been transformed into organic matter rich in hydrogen by bacteria, the hydrocarbon generation capacity of source rocks is greatly improved. In other words, in coal-measure source rocks, bacteria play an important role in hydrocarbon generation.

     

Molecular correlation of crude oils and oil components from reservoir rocks in the Tazhong and Tabei uplifts of the Tarim Basin, China

Molecular data from a large set of source rock, crude oil and oil-containing reservoir rock samples from the Tarim Basin demonstrate multiple sources for the marine oils in the studied areas of this basin. Based on gammacerane/C₃₁ hopane and C₂₈/(C₂₇ + C₂₈ + C₂₉) sterane ratios, three of the fifteen crude oils from the Tazhong Uplift correlate with Cambrian-Lower Ordovician source rocks, while the other crude oils from the Tazhong Uplift and all 39 crude oils from the Tahe oilfield in the Tabei Uplift correlate with Middle-Upper Ordovician source rocks. These two ratios further demonstrate that most of the free oils and nearly all of the adsorbed and inclusion oils in oil-containing reservoir rocks from the Tazhong Uplift correlate with Cambrian-Lower Ordovician source rocks, while the free and inclusion oils in oil-containing carbonates from the Tahe oilfield correlate mainly with Middle-Upper Ordovician source rocks. This result suggests that crude oils in the Tazhong Uplift are partly derived from the Cambrian-Lower Ordovician source rocks while those in the Ordovician carbonate reservoirs of Tahe oilfield are overwhelmingly derived from the Middle-Upper Ordovician source rocks.The scatter of C₂₃ tricyclic terpane/(C₂₃ tricyclic terpane + C₃₀ 17α,21β(H)-hopane) and C₂₁/(C₂₁ + ΣC₂₉) sterane ratios for the free and inclusion oils from oil-containing carbonates in the Tahe oilfield possibly reflects the subtle organofacies variations in the source rocks, implying that the Ordovician reservoirs in this oilfield are near the major source kitchen. In contrast, the close and positive relationship between these two ratios for oil components in the oil-containing reservoir rocks from the Tazhong Uplift implies that they are far from the major source kitchen.     

沉积有机质的成烃热模拟实验研究

塔里木盆地喀什凹陷克拉托天然气来源分析及聚气特征

塔里木西南喀什凹陷的克拉托天然气主要表现为原油的溶解气或者湿气,甲烷含量为74.59%~85.58%,克4井和克30井天然气则为较干的湿气。克拉托天然气的δ¹³C₁值为-41.2‰~-40.6‰,δ¹³C₂值为-30.0‰~-27.4‰。气源对比表明克拉托天然气主要源自具有混源母质特征的中侏罗统湖相烃源岩,不同于源自石炭系烃源岩的阿克莫木天然气。喀什凹陷的中-下侏罗统烃源岩主要是由于新近系的巨厚沉积才从未成熟—低成熟阶段进入成熟—高成熟阶段,生成的油气在克拉托背斜圈闭中聚集,虽也属晚期成藏,却具有连续聚气的特征。上新世末期,喀什凹陷的周缘开始抬升,早期油气藏受到破坏,形成了现今的地表油气苗或油砂。     

准噶尔盆地侏罗纪含煤地层沉积有机相研究

Geochemistry and origins of natural gases in the central Junggar Basin,northwest China

The petroliferous central Junggar Basin in northwest China is predominantly an oil exploration region. However, its gas exploration also might have good prospects. Thus to assist in gas exploration, the geochemistry and origins of gases are discussed in this paper based on relatively comprehensive analyses of compositions, carbon isotopes and light hydrocarbons of gases. Based on the results, the gas genetic types are grouped into families and combined with the geological setting (e.g., biomarkers of retrograde condensates and source rock characteristics). We show that there are four representative genetic types of gases. The first consists of gases derived from Permian lacustrine mudstones with type I–II kerogen and type III kerogen sources in the Penyijingxi sag. Their representative geochemical feature is δ¹³C₂ ranging from −31.4‰ to −24.7‰. The second is gas sourced from Carboniferous tufaceous mudstones of type III kerogen in the Dishuiquan sag, whose representative geochemical feature is the heaviest values of δ¹³C₁ in the studied samples, ranging from −32.0‰ to −30.4‰. The third consists of gases sourced from Jurassic coals and mudstones in the Shawan–Fukang sag. The light hydrocarbon fingerprints of these gases are similar to those of gases and oils typically derived from Jurassic source rocks in the southern Junggar Basin. The fourth is gas most likely generated from the degradation of crude oil. It is mainly found in the Luliang area and has dryness values as much as 0.999 and δ¹³C₁ ranging from −54.8‰ to −43.2‰. Among these four types of gases, the first (mainly sourced from the Permian lacustrine mudstones in the Penyijingxi sag) is the predominant type.     

Stable isotope geochemistry of coals, humic kerogens and related natural gases

Isotope systematics are well defined for conventional sapropelic, Type I/II kerogens and their associated bacterial and thermogenic natural-gas products. These geochemical tools are used to estimate source type, maturity and depositional environment, and as a correlation technique. In many cases the natural gas signatures in near-surface samples and drill cuttings can be used to classify or predict a deeper lying source rock or reservoir.Corresponding interpretative schemes for coals, Type III kerogens and their associated hydrocarbons are progressing quickly. The shift in attention to humic sources is driven primarily by depletion of conventional oil and gas resources and the economic and societal requirements of coal and coal-bed methane.Carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen stable isotope variations can be large between different coals and humic kerogens. These differences can often be recognized in their bulk δ¹³C_org, δD_org and δ¹⁵N_org values. Isotope signatures of coals can be diagnostic of several factors, including deposit age, type, geographic location, maturity and generation history. However, these characteristic isotopic variations are substantially better defined by the C-, H- and N-isotope ratios of the separate maceral groups, such as vitrinite, exinite and inertinite. This new application of stable isotopes, at the maceral and compound levels, have great potential to improve the interpretative precision over conventional whole coal or bulk techniques.Hydrocarbon gases, including coal gases, derived from coals and humic kerogens can be distinguished from Type I/II sources, based on their molecular rations, i.e., C₁/(C₂ + C₃) and by comparing their stable isotope compositions, especially δ¹³C_CH4 and δD_CH4. The δ¹³C_C2H6 can also be valuable, but ethane is generally present in small amount (<1 vol. %) and requires
