Coastal pollution hazards in southern California observed by SAR imagery: stormwater plumes, wastewater plumes, and natural hydrocarbon seeps

Stormwater runoff plumes, municipal wastewater plumes, and natural hydrocarbon seeps are important pollution hazards for the heavily populated Southern California Bight (SCB). Due to their small size, dynamic and episodic nature, these hazards are difficult to sample adequately using traditional in situ oceanographic methods. Complex coastal circulation and persistent cloud cover can further complicate detection and monitoring of these hazards. We use imagery from space-borne synthetic aperture radar (SAR), complemented by field measurements, to examine these hazards in the SCB. The hazards are detectable in SAR imagery because they deposit surfactants on the sea surface, smoothing capillary and small gravity waves to produce areas of reduced backscatter compared with the surrounding ocean. We suggest that high-resolution SAR, which obtains useful data regardless of darkness or cloud cover, could be an important observational tool for assessment and monitoring of coastal marine pollution hazards in the SCB and other urbanized coastal regions.     

松辽盆地朝阳沟阶地扶余-杨大城子油层油源分析与油气运移模式

基于生物标志化合物参数,系统对比分析了朝阳沟阶地扶余-杨大城子油层原油与三肇凹陷及朝阳沟阶地青山口组-段源岩的关系,表明朝阳沟阶地扶余油层有两个主要油源,即三肇凹陷青-段源岩与朝阳沟本地区青-段源岩,且两者对扶余油层的贡献量可能基本相同.朝阳沟地区杨大城子油层原油与三肇凹陷青-段源岩有密切的亲缘关系,与朝阳沟青-段源岩亲缘关系不明显.这与朝阳沟阶地源岩超压值相对较小、导致油气下排距离浅、进入杨大城子油层的油气量较小相符.在油源对比的基础上,结合断裂和砂体分布等各种地质条件,将朝阳沟阶地油气运移模式分为远源长距离侧向运移和近源短距离侧向运移两种类型.

春风油田石炭系火山岩油气层综合判识研究

火山岩油气藏是一种特殊类型油气藏,受岩性、岩相、储集空间类型等因素影响较大。常规测井仅能对储层进行评价,录井仅能对岩性及油气显示进行评价。利用测录井资料无法快速判识油气层现状,制约了现场完井方式及试油方案的及时决策,并影响钻井周期、成本及对区块的潜力评价。通过岩心描述、镜下薄片储集空间及含油性观察,结合测井解释和试油结果,总结了春风油田石炭系火山岩油藏岩石类型及含油性特征;火山岩储集空间类型、影响因素、识别方法及物性有效性;孔隙、裂缝等储集空间有效性电性识别方法;建立了春风油田石炭系油气层综合判识准则。本次研究可快速对该区石炭系完钻探井进行油气层综合判识,指导现场完井方式决策,提高勘探效益。

黄铁矿对有机质成烃的催化作用讨论

粘土矿物，碳酸盐，石英等无机矿物对有机质演化的催化作用已被确认，有机质干酪根类型还与黄铁矿含量，形态有关，而其中硫的含量直接影响到干酪根反应的活化能，反应速率，指出黄铁矿也是一种有效的催化剂。鉴于世界原油中有很大一部分产自高硫酪根，深入研究其中的机理是当前石油地球化学中的一项刻不容缓的任务。     

Exploitation or 'Wise Use' of the Coongie Lakes,South Australia: Issues arising from a petroleum exploration proposal

The exploitation of natural resources within areas that are valued for their environmental qualities raises competing emotions. This paper considers a proposal to undertake petroleum exploration in an area of recognised environmental value, namely, the Coongie Lakes of far north-east South Australia. In development cases such as this, the level of inquiry needs to address environmental, social, cultural and economic issues from a range of interest groups; therefore, the process of assessment is a crucial factor in minimising conflict and meeting the wishes of the stakeholders. In the example of Coongie Lakes, the chosen method failed. This paper discusses the perspectives of the major stakeholders, the process of assessment undertaken, and the criticisms directed at this process. The apparent inadequacies of the assessment process undertaken are then highlighted, and an alternative assessment procedure suggested.
