胜利油田下第三系砂岩中阶状石榴石的自生成因及形成温度

本文应用扫描电子显微镜及偏光显微镜,研究重矿物阶状石榴石表面的显微结构,确定它是自生成因的铁铝石榴石。根据阶状石榴石在各探井剖面中的纵向分布规律及特征变化,可以推断它的形成与埋藏深度或地温关系密切。通过计算确定,阶状石榴石初始形成的温度为92±5℃,可作为成岩矿物地温计。这对评价新探区的生油岩及储集岩均有实际意义。

AUTHIGENIC ORIGIN AND FORMATION TEMPERATURE OF STEP-LIKE GARNET FROM LOWER TERTIARY SANDSTONE,SHENGLI OIL FIELD,SHANDONG

Step-like garnets, i.e. garnets with faceted surface, occur in heavy from the reservoir rocks of Lower Tertiary sandstones. Many people that it resulted from dissolution or chemical etching,but many evidences this is not true in the study area. The writer suggests that it is anmineral and can be used as an excellent mineral geothermo meter. Studies by means of SEM show that the surface microtexture of the surface microtexture of the step-like garnets consisted of euhedral crystal faces are very regular and well defined,no evidence of dissolution or chemical etching can be found. The chemical compositions are analyzed by energy dispesive analyser,which indicates that all of the authigenic garnets have certain chemical compositions similar to those of almandine. The authigenic garnet is an excellent mineral geothermometer, its distribution is closely related to its burial depth and the geothermal gradient. It is found in Oligocene sandstones at depth more than 2100m, the amount of the step-like garnets increases with the increase the shape tends tomore complex and more variable. The studied area was a downfauited basin with continuous subsidence during Cenozoic Period and favours to study the burial diagenetic minerals.In comparison of the calculated temperature correspoding to depths of various burial diagenetic minerals with the measured temperature of these minerals in studied area, it is suggested that the calculated temperature is approximate or equal to the temper-ature limit of these mineral formation.According to the calculation results of the data f rom 13 wells, it is demonstrated that the step-like garnets are formed at 92 1 5 C,which approximates to the threshold temperature (93`i})of the oil generation in Dongying Basin. It is important for the evolution of source rocks and reserviorrocks in a new exploration area. Detailed investigations of more deeply-buried sediments have shown that several kinds of burial diagenesis involving the almandine formation or precipitaion can contempraneously occur, such as the conversion of the smectite to illite in mudstone and the dissolution of the feldspar in sandstone.The coversion of smectite to illite involves the release of a considerable number of components including Fe, Mg,Si,all of which are required for the almandine formation.
