Resumen

The source of oil and gas and the stages of oil and gas accumulation in the ?double-Paleo? field of the HZ-A structure in the Pearl River Mouth Basin are analyzed, and the spatiotemporal coupling relationship of the key conditions of oil and gas accumulation are discussed to reconstruct the process of oil and gas accumulation. Based on previous research results, which are based the characteristics of biomarker compounds, the oil and gas in the HZ-A structure double Paleogene field came from the Paleogene Wenchang Formation hydrocarbon source rocks in the HZ26 sub-sag. By means of the casting thin section identification and inclusion homogenization temperature measurement, this paper reveals the three major hydrocarbon accumulation periods and corresponding fluid charging types in the ?double-Paleo? field of the HZ-A structure in the Pearl River Mouth Basin. The results show that 13.8?10 Ma is the charging period of low mature crude oil, 10?5.3 Ma is the charging period of mature crude oil, and from 5.3 Ma is the natural gas charging period. Based on actual geological, drilling, logging, and seismic data, the key conditions for hydrocarbon accumulation in the HZ-A structure ?double-Paleo? field are sorted out; that is, the source conditions are characterized by high-quality lacustrine source rocks generating early oil and late gas and a near-source continuous hydrocarbon supply. The reservoir conditions are characterized by weathering and superposition of a fracture zone that transforms into a reservoir, and a large-scale sandstone rock mass that transforms into a reservoir. The caprock conditions are characterized by the stacking of several thin mudstones that form a seal and the combination of multiple lithologies that block hydrocarbon migration. The trap conditions are characterized by multistage uplift structure traps and fracture-lithology combination control traps. The transport conditions are characterized by multi-stage cross-bed transport of source-connected faults and lateral differential transport of shallow sand in deep fractures. Finally, oil and gas accumulation models of the HZ-A structure double Paleogene field were established, and the accumulation process was reconstructed. The overall process involved three stages, with the first stage being the localized oil-displacing-water mode, the second being the large-scale oil-displacing-water mode, and the third being the late progressive gas-displacing-oil mode.
