碩士 / 國立中央大學 / 應用地質研究所 / 93 / Due to the needs of petroleum exploration, the petroleum system exploration method is developed by combining petroleum geology, geophysics exploration and applied organic geochemistry. Organic geochemistry studies the kerogen type, organic richness and thermal maturation of the source rock. Various experiments such as Rock-Eval pyrolysis, total organic carbon detection, vitrinite reflectance measurement and maceral composition analysis are performed to provide the needed information for exploration.
This research discussed the relationship of material characteristics and thermal maturity versus hydrocarbon potential from the viewpoint of applied organic geochemistry. We chose well-drilled chip samples from NW Australia to proceed four analytic experiments including maceral composition analysis, elemental analysis, vitrinite reflectance measurement and Rock-Eval pyrolysis. According to our data, the hydrocarbon potential of the study area could be assessed. Meanwhile, the relationship of material characteristics and thermal maturity versus hydrocarbon potential could be testified. Furthermore, in order to offer a contrast of hydrocarbon potential assessment and compare the feasibility of applied organic geochemistry between well-drilled chip samples and outcropped coal samples, we also collected some coal samples from the Western Foothill Belt of Taiwan to proceed the same experiments.
The results of the study show that the study area in Australia possessed some oil/gas potential. However, more detailed hydrocarbon potential assessment in this area will still be needed in the future.
