Abstract:

The Jurassic hydrocarbon source rocks on the north margin of Qaidam Basin could be divided into highstand marsh peat organic facies, forest marsh peat organic fades, shore-shallow lake organic facies and semideep-deep lake organic facies. The first facies contains high inertinite contents, its organic matter is mainly Ⅲ2-type, its hydrocarbon-generation capacity is the lowest and gas is the main product; the second facies contains high viitrinite and Ⅲ1-type organic matter, It hydrocarbon generation capacity is relatively low with gas is the main product; the third facies is primarily coal measures with lower sapropelinite. Its organic' matter is mainly Ⅱ-and Ⅲ1-types with lower to poor hydrocarbon generation capacity; the last facies has the highest sapropelinite, the organic matter is Ⅰ2-or Ⅰ1 types with the best oil generation capacity

Key words: Jurassic System, source rock, organic facies, estimation
