Abstract
The Fukang Sag in the Junggar Basin is the main exploration block. However, the origin and source of crude oil are still controversial, which seriously affects the well locating and exploration in this area. In the present work, 30 source rocks and 21 crude oils were collected for geochemical analysis to clarify the source of the organic matter, the sedimentary environment, and the evolution degree. Among them, the source rocks of the Pingdiquan Formation are type II1 organic matter with good quality, the source rocks of the Badaowan Formation are type II2-III organic matter with fair–good quality, and the source rocks of the Xishanyao Formation are type II2 organic matter with fair quality. All source rocks are in the mature stage. The results of the biomarker compounds show that the lacustrine mudstone of the Xishanyao Formation and the coal-measure mudstone of the Badaowan Formation were deposited in reducing environments. The former was mainly from lower aquatic organisms, and the latter was from terrestrial higher plants. The mudstone of the Pingdiquan Formation was formed in a weakly oxidizing–weakly reducing depositional environment, and its parent material was of mixed origin. Based on the results of the biomarker compounds and carbon isotopes, the crude oils were divided into three categories. The Family I crude oil has the characteristics of low maturity, low salinity, and more input of low-level aquatic organisms, and the carbon isotope has a good affinity with the lacustrine mudstone of the Xishanyao Formation. The Family II crude oil shows medium maturity, low salinity, mainly higher plant input, and heavy carbon isotope, mainly derived from the Badaowan Formation coal-measure mudstone. The Family III crude oil is characterized by high maturity, high salinity, mixed parent materials, and light carbon isotope and originates from the mudstone of the Pingdiquan Formation. The results provide a reference for oil and gas exploration and development in the eastern area of the Junggar Basin; the future research will focus on well areas with high maturity near the Fukang fault zone.
