Methane-dominated thermochemical sulphate reduction in the Triassic Feixianguan Formation East Sichuan Basin, China: towards prediction of fatal H2S concentrations

New sour pools have recently found in the Lower Triassic Feixianguan Fm carbonate reservoirs in the East Sichuan Basin in China with H₂S up to 17.4% by volume. A recent blowout from a well drilled into this formation killed hundreds of people as a result of the percentage concentrations of H₂S. In order to assess the origin of fatal H₂S as well as the cause of petroleum alteration, H₂S concentrations and the isotopes, δ³⁴S and δ¹³C have been collected and measured in gas samples from reservoirs. Anhydrite, pyrite and elemental sulphur δ³⁴S values have been measured for comparison. The high concentrations of H₂S gas are found to occur at depths >3000 m (temperature now at 100 °C) in evaporated platform facies oolitic dolomite or limestone that contains anhydrite nodule occurrence within the reservoirs. Where H₂S concentrations are greater than 10% its δ³⁴S values lie between +12.0 and +13.2‰ CDT. This is within the range of anhydrite δ³⁴S values found within the Feixianguan Fm (+11.0 to +21.7‰; average 15.5±3.5‰ CDT). Thus H₂S must have been generated by thermochemical sulphate reduction (TSR) locally within the reservoirs. Burial history analysis and fluid inclusion data reveal that the temperature at which TSR occurred was greater than about 130–140 °C, suggesting that the present depth-temperature minimum is an artifact of post-TSR uplift. Both methane and ethane were actively involved in TSR since the petroleum became almost totally dry (no alkanes except methane) and methane δ¹³C values become significantly heavier as TSR proceeded. Methane δ¹³C difference thus reflects the extent of TSR. While it is tempting to use a present-day depth control (>3000 m) to predict the distribution of H₂S in the Feixianguan Fm, this is an invalid approach since TSR occurred when the formation was buried some 1000–2000 m deeper than it is at present. The likelihood of differential uplift across the basin means that it is important to develop a basinal understanding of the thermal history of the Feixianguan Fm so that it is possible to determine which parts of the basin have been hotter than 130–140 °C.

On the calculation of two-dimensional added mass and damping coefficients by simple Green's function technique

This paper describes a numerical method for calculating the two-dimensional hydrodynamic coefficients of one or two infinitely long, arbitrary cylinders forced to oscillate in or below the free water surface. The oscillation modes, amplitudes and phases of the cylinders may be different from one another. Finite water depth and a quay can be taken into account. Special consideration has been given to the radiation boundary conditions.The computer program developed has been tested in various two-dimensional boundary situations; it has produced results in good agreement with results obtained by other methods.

真鲷早期发育阶段行为生态学研究

真鲷Pagrosomus major Temminck et Schlegel早期发育阶段游泳行为的发育可以分为:(1)旋转式运动;(2)阶梯型运动;(3)间断式水平运动和滑翔;(4)巡游以及(5)疾游五种类型。前期仔鱼的摄食方式主要是伴有甩头动作的前冲摄食;后期仔鱼的摄食主要有两种类型:一种是身体弯成S形的“S攻击型”;另一种为不作摄食姿势的“咬食攻击型”。摄食方式随着发育水平和饵料种类的不同而异。文中对发育过程中出现的攻击行为、护食行为、互食行为、猝死现象亦进行了描述。并对游泳、摄食以及各种行为的生态意义和实际意义进行了讨论。
