The characteristics and sources of natural gases from Ordovician weathered crust reservoirs in the Central Gas Field in the Ordos Basin

The Central Gas Field is a famous large-sized gas field in the Ordos Basin of China. However, identification of main gas sources of the Ordovician reservoirs in this gas field remains puzzling. On the basis of a lot of geochemical data and geological research on natural gases, the characteristics and sources of natural gases from Ordovician weathered crust reservoirs in the Central Gas Field in the Ordos Basin were studied. The results indicated that natural gases from Ordovician weathered crust reservoirs in the Central Gas Field in the Ordos Basin have similar chemical and isotopic compositions to highly mature and over-mature dry gases. Both coal-derived gases and oil-type gases coexist in the Central Gas Field in the Ordos Basin. The former was derived mainly from Carboniferous-Permian coal measures and the latter from Lower Paleozoic marine carbonates. It is suggested that coal-derived gases occur in the eastern part of the Central Gas Field while oil-type gases may be produced mainly in the northern, western and southern parts of the Central Gas Field in the Ordos Basin.     

Origin of Oils in “Subtle pools” in the Dongying Depression, Bohai Bay Basin, China

Subtle traps or oil pools have become an important exploration play in the Dongying Depression, Bohai Bay Basin, east China. Despite recent successes in exploration, the formation mechanisms of subtle traps are still not well understood. The majority of subtle oil pools in the Dongying Depression are developed in the middle interval of the Es3 Member of the Paleogene Shahejie Formation with the subtle traps being primarily of lenticular basin-floor turbidite sands encompassed in mudstones. Oil in the subtle traps was previously thought to have migrated directly from the surrounding source rocks of the same formation （Es3）. Detailed geochemical investigation of 41 oils and 41 rock samples from the depression now indicates that the oils from the subtle traps cannot be correlated well with the surrounding Es3 source rocks, which are characterized by high Pr/ Ph （〉1）, low Gammacerane/C30hopane, representing a freshwater lacustrine setting. In contrast the oils features low Pr/Ph （〈1） and relatively high Gammacerane content, showing a genetic affinity with the underlying Es4 source rocks, which also have the same qualities, indicating a brackish lacustrine setting. Oils in the Es3 subtle traps are probably derived from mixed sources with the contribution from the upper Es4 source rocks predominating. Therefore unconventional oil migration and accumulation mechanisms need to be invoked to explain the pooling of oils from the ES4 source rocks, which probably came through a thick low interval of the Es3 source rocks with no apparent structural or stratigraphic pathways. We suggest that the subtle oil migration pathway probably plays an important role here. This finding may have significant implications for future exploration and the remaining resource evaluation in the Dongying Depression.     

柴达木盆地三湖地区磁力异常形成机理研究与异常分析

柴达木盆地的油气资源丰富,近年来在该区发现了大量异常显示,但是各种异常形成机理各不相同,存在较大多解性,使得该区油气储量探明率很低.根据柴达木盆地以往开展的常规非地震勘探的现状及效果,以磁测找油机理为基础,采用磁力资料化极、剩余磁力异常提取和磁力平剖图等处理手段,对三湖地区生物气藏磁异常进行分析研究,取得明显的异常显示效果.     

安阳矿区双全井田岩性结构与煤体变形的关系

煤体变形程度控制着煤与瓦斯突出和煤层气的可开发性,煤体结构空间展布预测是人们长期关注的焦点。以岩体力学和分形几何学基本理论为指导,以安阳矿区双全井田为例,通过计算岩体强度因子和分形维数,系统探讨了岩性结构对煤体变形的影响。研究表明,岩体强度因子和分形维数与断层和测井曲线判识的煤体结构之间存在密切关系:低强度因子和分形维数区,煤体易发生韧性变形,软煤发育;高强度因子和分形维数区,煤体(和岩体)以脆性变形为主,以断层发育为特征。这一结论为井田构造发育特征和软煤空间展布所证实。岩体力学和分形几何学的引入,为煤体结构空间展布区域预测提供了一种新途径。

金沙江下咱日堆积体的成因和稳定性初步分析

下咱日堆积体的稳定性对拟建的梨园水电站大坝和附近的水力设施有着重要的意义。利用下咱日堆积体的勘察资料,本文分析后认为下咱日堆积体经历了中更新世的金江冰期和晚更新世的丽江冰期两次冰期的作用,是由冰碛物、河流沉积物、湖相沉积物及崩积物组成的复杂成因堆积体;稳定性初步分析认为,下咱日堆积体局部有坍塌,但是整体稳定,以后稳定与否的关键是堆积体中湖相沉积层及坡脚的松散砾石层的稳定性。     

石笋流体包裹体中的惰性气体及其在重建长江中游古温度变化中的作用

文中讨论了一种评估古气温变化的新方法。我们成功地利用石笋流体包裹体所捕获的Xe/Ar比值,重建了末次冰盛期以来盛行东亚季风的长江中游地区的气候演化。一种表达成ln(CXe/CAr)的对数式被证明与冷暖周期变化具有密切的关系。从研究的石笋中所提出的δ13C与Mg/Ca曲线一般随区域古气温波动而变化,但不能排除其中有另类气候信号的叠加。我们的工作则明确地指出,流体包裹体所记录的Xe/Ar在各种反映温度变化的替代指标中可能是最好的一种。整体而言,ln(CXe/CAr)曲线与那些基本随暖期和冷期振荡的曲线保持一致。将稀有气体曲线与δ13C和Mg/Ca信号整合对比之后,我们在研究区划分出末次冰盛期以来8组暖/冷旋回。整合后的气温变化模式合理地解释了过去20000年里的区域环境变化。     

论油气成藏与金属成矿的关系及综合勘探

从油气藏及金属矿藏的来源、运移、成藏/成矿等方面对油气成藏和金属成矿之间的关系进行了论述,指出油气藏和沉积金属矿藏均来自于相同的烃源岩/矿源层。一些金属(铀、黄铁矿等)的存在,有可能对有机质向烃类的转化起到了积极的催化作用,而烃类中的有机酸对金属元素具有溶解、螯合作用,有利于金属元素随烃类和成矿流体的析出。烃类和成矿流体在水-油-岩共存体系,在近乎相同的运移机制和路径中,能够一起溶解、萃取其路径上的金属元素,有利于金属元素的运移。油气与成矿流体可以在圈闭中聚集、成藏或者由于物理化学条件的变化,金属矿物独立沉淀成矿。油气与金属的成藏/成矿在时间和空间上也具有某些相似性。因此油气成藏和金属成矿具有非常密切的关系,有利于对二者进行综合勘探和利用,具有非常重要的现实意义。     

生物气CO_2还原途径中碳同位素分馏作用研究及应用

地质历史中,CO2/H2还原产甲烷作用对生物气的形成具有十分重要的意义。中国柴达木盆地第四系生物气主要为CO2/H2还原型生物气。笔者以CO2/H2还原生气理论为指导,进行不同初始碳同位素值和不同赋存状态碳源的生物模拟实验,研究CO2/H2还原产气过程中发生的碳同位素分馏作用。实验结果表明,产物中δ13CH4值与底物的δ13C值呈很好的正相关关系;在反应母质过量的情况下,碳源的赋存状态可以影响产物甲烷的碳同位素组成。以游离形式CO2还原产生的甲烷δ13C值,相对于以HCO3-、CO23-离子形式产生的甲烷δ13C值轻。通过柴达木盆地东部第四系生物气田实例分析,探讨了该区生物气的主要底物CO2的来源及赋存状态,对评价盆地生物气资源和有利勘探区预测有重要的参考价值。

在分析前人对准噶尔盆地层序地层学研究成果的基础上,综合应用岩心、测井和地震资料,对准噶尔盆地西北缘中拐地区下侏罗统进行层序地层划分,总结了层序和体系域界面的识别标志,将下侏罗统划分为4个三级层序和7个体系域,同时叙述了各三级层序的结构特征。通过对层序内含煤岩系的发育特点分析,发现其主力煤层主要发育在JSQI和JSQ3湖侵体系域中,本文作者认为研究区内湖侵时期为有利的聚煤时期,聚煤作用主要受构造沉降、物源供给、气候和沉积环境等因素的控制。
