简介:大别造山带和合肥盆地是紧密相连的两个构造单元,它们在形成和时空演化上具有密切的关系。在大别造山带内发现的可燃天然气和发生燃烧的隧道具有明显的区域性,集中分布于磨子潭-晓天断裂以南的北大别杂岩带和信阳-舒城断裂附近的早石炭世变质石英片岩中,磨子潭-晓天断裂和信阳-舒城断裂是连通深部的气源通道断裂;推覆体之下的寒武系凤台组和北淮阳型石炭系两套海相烃源岩是隧道可燃天然气的主力气源岩,其中下寒武统凤台组烃源岩具有高碳、高“R0”、高Tmax低氯仿“A”的特点,已进入热演化的过成熟阶段;北淮阳型石炭系烃源岩有机质丰度高,以Ⅲ型干酪根为主,热演化程度很高,大量的油气已经生成,最重要的是研究其成烃过程与圈闭配套史的关系。大别造山带隧道可燃天然气的发现展示了合肥盆地区深部海相层系良好的勘探前景,因此下步勘探重心应从“中新生代盆地系统”转移到“深部海相层系”,以寻找“古生古储”或“古生新储”类型油气藏为主。
