The results show that most of the samples are high-quality source rocks with high TOC and?S2, and the oil shale samples are excellent source rocks with the TOC and?S2?greater than 5.0% and 20.0 mg/g, respectively. A freshwater depositional?environment in the deep lake for the mudstones was indicated by lower values of biomarker?ratios gammacerane/C30?Hopane and C35Hopane/C34?Hopane. With the lacustrine regression, the ratios Ca/U, Ca/Ba, Ca/Mg, Ca/B, Ca/Li, Ca/Sr and Sr/Ba decrease, while Fe/(Ca + Mg) increases. In the section 3330 - 3370 m with enrichment of oil shale, the organic matter and inorganic elements present strong fluctuation. The quantitative relations among U, U/Th and TOC,?S2, %Ca are divided into two parts at boundary values of 7.0%, 32 mg/g and 11% for TOC,?S2?and %Ca, respectively.展开更多

The formula shows that capillary sealing ability of caprock is determined not only by the capillary force of rock and the buoyancy of hydrocarbon column, but also by the starting pressure gradient of hydrocarbons and the thickness of caprock. The buoyancy of hydrocarbon column, the starting pressure gradient of hydrocarbon, and the capillary force of caprock are affected by hydrocarbon density, hydrocarbon viscosity, and hydrocarbon-water interface tension respectively. Based on hydrocarbon property data of reservoirs of Jiyang Depression and equations from literature, the effects of hydrocarbon density, hydrocarbon viscosity, and hydrocarbon-water interface tension on the sealing ability of caprock are analyzed. Under formational conditions, the sealing ability of oil caprock can vary up to dozens times because of the variations of the oil density, oil viscosity, and oil-water interface tension. Thus, the physical characters of hydrocarbon should be considered when evaluating the capillary sealing ability of caprocks. Study of the effects of physical characters on sealing ability of caprock can provide guidance to exploring special physical property hydrocarbon resources, such as viscous oils, and hydrocarbon resources in special pressure-temperature environments.展开更多

The geochemical characters of the products of soluble organic matter and kerogen are researched respectively. The yields of the two components and their relations are made out. The contribution ratio between soluble organic matter and kerogen undergoing early degradation in lake facies of semi-salt water is figured out for the first time, so the research into the genetic mechanism of immature oil is developed.展开更多
