The light hydrocarbons of oils play an important role in their geochemistry, especially in mixed oils. The database of the Key Laboratory of Petroleum Geochemistry, China National Petroleum Corporation has accumulated 824 oil sample records. The oil samples represent most of the oil areas of China. In this paper the light hydrocarbons of salt lake derived oils from Jianghan basin, China, were studied. These oils are characterized by high toluene contents and high K1 [K1=(2-MH+2,3-DMP)/(3-MH+2,4-DMP)] values. The reason is unclear but may be related to the high salinity environment of the source.
A series of isothermal hydrous pyrolysis experiments was performed on immature sedimentary rocks and peats of different lithology and organic source input to explore the generation of diamondoids during the thermal maturation of sediments. Oil generation curves indicate that peak oil yields occur between 340 and 360°C, followed by intense oil cracking in different samples. The biomarker maturity parameters appear to be insensitive to thermal maturation as most of the isomerization ratios of molecular biomarkers in the pyrolysates have reached their equilibrium values. Diamondoids are absent from immature peat extracts, but exist in immature sedimentary rocks in various amounts. This implies that they are not products of biosynthesis and that they may be generated during diagenesis, not just catagenesis and cracking. Most importantly, the concentrations of diamondoids are observed to increase with thermal stress, suggesting that they can be used as a molecular proxy for thermal maturity of source rocks and crude oils. Their abundance is most sensitive to thermal exposure above temperatures of 360–370°C (R0=1.3–1.5%) for the studied samples, which corresponds to the onset of intense cracking of other less stable components. Below these temperatures, diamondoids increase gradually due to competing processes of generation and dilution. Calibrations were developed between their concentrations and measured vitrinite reflectance through hydrous pyrolysis maturation of different types of rocks and peats. The geochemical models obtained from these methods may provide an alterative approach for determining thermal maturity of source rocks and crude oils, particularly in mature to highly mature Paleozoic carbonates. In addition, the extent of oil cracking was quantified using the concentrations of diamondoids in hydrous pyrolysates of rocks and peats, verifying that these hydrocarbons are valuable indicators of oil cracking in nature.
To judge the direction of petroleum secondary migration by using geochemical parameters,the simulation experiment of secondary oil migration was performed in self-designed apparatus.The family composition,saturated hydrocarbons,aromatic hydrocarbons,and alkyl phenol and neutral nitrogen compounds in the simulation samples were analyzed using GC-MS.The results demonstrate that crude oils have the same phenomena as the chromatography process while passing through carrier beds.In the experiment,except for the light fraction which is mainly used for solvent,all other compound contents do not simply increase or decrease,instead they have an enriching process.The migration direction can be judged by combining the concentration curve of the compounds and their ratio curve into one drawing.If both the curves change in one direction(increase or decrease),the direction is the migration direction.If they have different directions,then the decrease direction is the migration direction of crude oils.
It is difficult to identify the source(s) of mixed oils from multiple source rocks, and in particular the relative contribution of each source rock. Artificial mixing experiments using typical crude oils and ratios of different biomarkers show that the relative contribution changes are non-linear when two oils with different concentrations of biomarkers mix with each other. This may result in an incorrect conclusion if ratios of biomarkers and a simple binary linear equation are used to calculate the contribution proportion of each end-member to the mixed oil. The changes of biomarker ratios with the mixing proportion of end-member oils in the trinal mixing model are more complex than in the binary mixing model. When four or more oils mix, the contribution proportion of each end-member oil to the mixed oil cannot be calculated using biomarker ratios and a simple formula. Artificial mixing experiments on typical oils reveal that the absolute concentrations of biomarkers in the mixed oil cause a linear change with mixing proportion of each end-member. Mathematical inferences verify such linear changes. Some of the mathematical calculation methods using the absolute concentrations or ratios of biomarkers to quantitatively determine the proportion of each end-member in the mixed oils are deduced from the results of artificial experiments and by theoretical inference. Ratio of two biomarker compounds changes as a hyperbola with the mixing proportion in the binary mixing model, as a hyperboloid in the trinal mixing model, and as a hypersurface when mixing more than three end-members. The mixing proportion of each end-member can be quantitatively determined with these mathematical models, using the absolute concentrations and the ratios of biomarkers. The mathematical calculation model is more economical, convenient, accurate and reliable than conventional artificial mixing methods.

The Raman spectrometric analysis of some standard samples of the saturated hydrocarbons has shown that there is a series of strong peaks in the Raman spectrum band of 2700~2970cm~(-1) for the saturated hydrocarbons in petroleum.They include the max-CH_3 characteristic peak(2872±cm~(-1)) for the n-alkanes,the max-CH characteristic peak(2911±cm~(-1)) for iso-alkanes and the max-CH_2 characteristic peak(2857±cm~(-1)) for cyclic alkanes.In addition,there is a peak of 748 cm~(-1) for iso-alkanes and a peak of 804 cm~(-1) for cyclic alkanes respectively.In summary,it is indicated that the hydrocarbon compounds with the same functional group show the similar distribution of Raman spectra,while the Raman peak in 2905~2921 cm~(-1) only represents the characteristic peak of-CH functional group of the hydrocarbon mixture or hydrocarbon inclusions rather than that of the CH_4.
Various Δ5-3β-sterenols, whose carbon numbers range from C19-C23 to C26-C30 and some compounds have many stereomers maximal up to six, have been detected out from the extract of brown algae (Sargassum muticum), which means that steranes with lower carbon numbers are likely different in the origin, and some corresponding sterol stereoisomers may have already existed in their precursor organisms. This provides some experimental evidence for supplementing and amending the traditional interpretation of the sterol stereoisomer transformation during the deposition and diagenesis of organic matter.

Oil and gas exploration in eastern Tarim Basin, NW China has been successful in recent years, with several commercial gas accumulations being discovered in a thermally mature to over-mature region. The Yingnan2 (YN2) gas field, situated in the Yingnan structure of the Yingjisu Depression, produces gases that are relatively enriched in nitrogen and C2+ alkanes. The δ13C1 (−38.6‰ to −36.2‰) and δ13C2 values (−30.9‰ to −34.7‰) of these gases are characteristic of marine sourced gases with relatively high maturity levels. The distributions of biomarkers in the associated condensates suggest close affinities with the Cambrian–Lower Ordovician source rocks which, in the Yingjisu Sag, are currently over-mature (with 3–4%Ro). Burial and thermal maturity modeling results indicate that paleo-temperatures of the Cambrian–Lower Ordovician source rocks had increased from 90 to 210°C during the late Caledonian orogeny (458–438Ma), due to rapid subsidence and sediment loading. By the end of Ordovician, hydrocarbon potential in these source rocks had been largely exhausted. The homogenization temperatures of hydrocarbon fluid inclusions identified from the Jurassic reservoirs of the YN2 gas field suggest a hydrocarbon emplacement time as recent as about 10Ma, when the maturity levels of Middle–Lower Jurassic source rocks in the study area were too low (<0.7%Ro) to form a large quantity of oil and gas. The presence of abundant diamondoid hydrocarbons in the associated condensates and the relatively heavy isotopic values of the oils indicate that the gases were derived from thermal cracking of early-formed oils. Estimation from the stable carbon isotope ratios of gaseous alkanes suggests that the gases may have been formed at temperatures well above 190°C. Thus, the oil and gas accumulation history in the study area can be reconstructed as follows: (1) during the late Caledonian orogeny, the Cambrian–Lower Ordovician marine source rocks had gone through the peak oil, wet gas and dry gas generation stages, with the generated oil and gas migrating upwards along faults and fractures to form early oil and gas accumulations in the Middle–Upper Ordovician and Silurian sandstone reservoirs; (2) since the late Yanshanian orogeny, the early oil accumulations have been buried deeper and oil has undergone thermal cracking to form gas; (3) during the late Himalayan orogeny, the seals for the deep reservoirs were breached; and the gas and condensates migrated upward and eventually accumulating in the relatively shallow Jurassic reservoirs.

Tumuji oil sand is located in the margin of Songliao Basin, its oil - source research is very important for this region' petroleum exploration. The GC - MS analysis has shown that Tumuji oil sand has been severely biodegraded, some terpane and sterane compounds are not used to make oil - source correlation. We have selected anti - biodegraded tricyclic terpane as the correlative parameter to make correlation with three adjacent oils. It has suggested that Tumuji oil have from Nenjian and Qingsankou soure formations. This paper has provided an effective correlation method for severely biodegraded oils.
Oil and gas exploration in eastern part of the Tarim basin was quite successful recently with several commercial gas accumulations being discoved in high to over-matured source region. Yingnan2 (YN2) gasfield, situated in Yingnan structure of the Yingjisu depression, is one representative gas accumulation. To study and gas genetic characteristics and accumulation history in this region attracts wide interests to geologists and geochemists. YN2 gases are rich in nitrogen and relatively wet. The methane and ethane stable carbon isotopic compositions are in the range of -38.6‰~-36.2‰ and (-30.9‰)~-34.7‰, respectively. They are characterized by marine source origin but more matured than variety of other marine originated oil-type gases discovered in the Tarim basin so far. Biomarkers from their associated condensates indicate closely affinity with the Lower Paleozoic Cambrian-Lower Ordovician marine source rather than the shallower Middle Jurassic coal measures. Both gas and associated condensate were obviously derived from the Cambrian-Lower Ordovician marine source in the Yingjisu depression, however, to understand and gas generation and accumulation histories remains puzzling. The Cambrian-Lower Ordovician marine source are over-matured (VRE=3%~4%) at present time and their burial and maturity evolution histories indicate that paleo-geotemperature increases rapidly from 90℃ to 210℃ within 20 Ma (458~438 Ma) during the late Caledonian period (Middle-Late Ordovician) due to rapid subsidence and quick heating, which leads source experience very short oil window (about 10 Ma) and incomplete expulsion before gas generation stage. They can be regard as dead source rocks with no and gas generation potential by the end of Ordovician. On the other hand, fluid inclusion homogenization temperature, burial and hydrocarbon generation histories suggest that YN2 gas in the Jurassic reservoir was formed within recent 10 Ma. It is not possible for the Cambrian-Lower Ordovician source to generate wet gas with dryness coefficient of 0.82~0.90 during this period, whereas the Middle Jurassic strata did not mature enough (R_O 0.7%) to form such large quantity of and gas. Such obvious discrepancy between and gas generation, accumulation histories and their properties may reflect special accumulation processes occur in this region. High concentration of diamondoid hydrocarbons detected from condensates may indicate that had experienced extensively thermal cracking. Very heavy isotopic composition in whole is a supplemental cracking evidence. Gas isotope curves illustrate that gas formation temperature is above 190℃. All these evidences suggest that gases discovered in the Tadong area are primarily form by cracking, which may turn into the vital exploration target in this region. Oil and gas accumulation processes can be reconstructed as following: the Lower Paleozoic Cambrian-Lower Ordovician marine source experienced peak-wet gas-kerogen cracking dry gas stages during the late Caledonian movement, and gas migrated upward along faults to the Middle-Upper Ordovician or Silurian sandstone reservoirs to form ancient and gas accumulations. With increasing burial depth during the late Yanshanian movement, these deep buried ancient accumulations start to cracking and large quantity of cracked gas migrates upward. Since incomplete trap development and poor tightness of top seal at this time, methane and other light components were preferentially diffusion and leaking away, leading obvious compositional fractionation in gas accumulation process and concentrated wet gas components. With trap tightness getting better and continuous gas charging in the late Himalayan movement, gases filling into the traps and leakage away through faults reach a dynamic status in certain scale, which finally forms deep sourced secondary condensate accumulations in the study area.
It is very important to select the effective correlation parameter with anti-biodegradation for calculating the contribution to biodegraded mixed oils. The results have been tested by artificial oil-mixing experiment. The biodegraded mixed oils in the PL 19-3 Oilfield, Bohai Bay, have been reconstructed using the triaromatic sterane/dinotriaromatic sterane parameter derived from typical oils from the Shahejie Formation (Member 3) and the lower Dongying Formation. From Well PL 19-3-4 (the closest to the Bozhong Depression) southward to Well 2, Well 8, and Well 5,the contribution from the source rock of the lower Dongying Formation shows a gradual decrease, from the highest value of about 30% in Well PL 19-3-4 to the lowest around 10%.
