简介:西北的华南海深海位于对Qiongdongnan盆(QDN盆)的南部的部分中央,它是为最近的年里的烃探索的一个关键地点。在这研究,作者做了严肃磁性的数据的全面分析,地震调查,核心和剪样,古生物学和geochemical索引的广泛的3D,建议了天然气起源,识别的不同的油和煤气的系统的机制,并且在深海的区域建立了烃累积的模型。我们的盆构造模拟显示QDN盆的进化被多重阶段的构造运动控制例如印度支那欧亚的板碰撞,西藏高举,指责的红河和被Paleogenerifting,晚第三纪消沉,并且始新世的集中的指责和湖的存款描绘的华南海的扩大。钻的结果证明这个区域被过渡的marineterrestrial和neritic-bathyal外形从早渐新世统治。早渐新世的Yacheng形成富于有机物和主要煤气来源的岩石。根据从最近的钻井的geological-geochemical数据,Lingshui,Baodao,Changchang下垂有好产生烃的潜力,在从Paleogene和晚第三纪水库的二出戏被开发的地方。那些水库发生在中央峡谷structural-lithologic陷井地区,Changchang边缘的陷井地区和Baodao的南部的差错梯田下垂。在他们之中,因为各种各样的reservoirforming元素很好被开发,中央峡谷陷井地区为探索有一个大潜力,即,好煤措施来源岩石,从晚第三纪混浊沙岩的足够的水库和海底的扇子,差错连接来源岩石和水库,有效垂直移植,迟了的舞台聚集和有利structurallithological合成套住。这些学习结果在这个区域为烃探索提供一个重要科学基础,由重要商业LS的最近的发现证实了--在Lingshui的中央峡谷的一块煤气的地下垂。
