The Isomeric Composition of the Phenyl-Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons and Its Implications for Thermal Evolution of Organic Matter: A Case Study of Source Rocks in Western Qaidam Basin
详细信息   
摘要


     Source rocks from a Tertiary inland lake in the Qaidam Basin west,China were analysed for ar- omatics using capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry GC-MS. The triaromatic members of the new series, phenylnaphthalenes PhNs and terphenyls TrPs, are found in different types of source rocks. The isomeric composition of phenylnaphthalenes and terhenyls was found to depend on thermal ma- turity. In the samples with lower maturity abundances of 1-PhN and o-TrP are higher. Increase in sample maturity is indicated by an increase in the relative abundance of 2-PhN as well as m-TrP and p-TrP. Three thermal maturity parameters of the organic matter based on the relative abundances of the PhN and TrP i- somers are proposed PhNR=2-PhN/1PhN,TrPl=p-TrP/o-TrP,and TrP2= m-TrPp-TrP/o-TrP. In general their values are positively correlated with vitrinite reflectance fRo in a range of 0. 47%-1. 32%, While correlation of the conventional biomarker maturity parameters C29 ααα sterane -20S/20S20R, C31αβ hopane 22S/22S22R,MPI1 ratio are less apparent with vitrinite reflectance fro in a range of 0. 92%-1. 32%. So the new parameters perhaps are effective reflecting degree of thermal evolution of or- ganic matter in the mature-highly mature stage.
