Abstract

Abstract:

High temperature and high pressure hydrous pyrolysis experiments were conducted on type Ⅲ source rocks from Well Tao 10 in Liaohe Basin under various conditions to investigate the role of biomarker maturity parameters at different thermal evolution stages.The expelled oils collected from these experiments were separated into saturated hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, non-hydrocarbons and asphaltene, and the saturated fractions were analyzed by GC/MS.Taking the simulation temperature as the scales of maturity, the biomarkers that are indicative of thermal maturity evolution were detected from n-alkane, isoprenoid alkane, tricyclic terpane, tetracyclic terpane, hopane and sterane, and their parameter index were also calculated.Based on the different sensitivities of different biomarkers to thermal action, the ratio of different biomarkers may reflect different thermal stages.With the simulation temperature increasing, the hopanes may be turned into tricyclic terpanes, Tm may be turned into Ts, and the configurations of isomers will be transformed from 22R to 22S, thus the ∑tricyclic terpane/∑hopane, Ts/Tm and C₃₁-hopanes 22S/(22S+22R) may be good indicators of thermal stages.But in the stage of maturity to over-maturity, the C₂₄-tetracyclic terpane/∑hopanes, C₃₀βα-moretane / C₃₀αβ-hopane and C₂₉-sterane ββ/(αα+ββ) are more suitable indicators.Therefore, samples at different thermal evolution stages have their own optimal biomarker assemblages providing a theoretical basis for determining thermal evolution stage of source rocks by using maturity parameters in the study area.
