Abstract:
By using reservoir geochemical approach,this paper mainly studies on the hydrocarbon migration and charging orientation of Eocene Liushagang Formation(E
2l) oil reservoirs in the Fushan Sag,Beibuwan Basin.Combined with the petroleum geological background,the reason that caused the difference between oil pools in upper(E
2l31) and mid-lower parts(E
2l32—E
2l33)of Liushagang Formation has also been discussed.It shows that the oils in E
2l31 horizon in Huachang oil and gas field are mainly sourced from the Bailian sub-Sag.The unconformity between E
2l2 and E
2l3,the sandstone of fan delta front and the faults are good carrier beds for these oils.Comparison with the E
2l31,the oils in E
2l32-E
2l33 horizons have relatively higher density,lower maturity,high content of CO
2 and lower oil and gas yields.All these characteristics are determined by the special fault systems and specific geological background.The oils in E
2l32-E
2l33 horizons are mainly derived from the source rock of the third member of the Liushagang Formation in Huachang area,which have relatively lower thermal maturity and limited hydrocarbon generation potential.Controlled by the giant faults that cut through the E
2l3 stratum and terminated in the basement,the volcanic-mantle derived CO
2 can migrate through these faults and charge in E
2l32-E
2l33 traps.The geochemical research provides direct evidence for hydrocarbon charging orientation and pathways.
