Abstract

As an oil exploration candidate area,many light crude oilfields have been found in the Southwest Tarim Basin.Research on the light hydrocarbon geochemical characteristics of oil in the whole area has great significance for the oil exploration in this area.Using the GC equipment with PONA capillary column,we analyzed C6—C13  light hydrocarbons of 22 oil samples collected from Southwest Tarim Basin.Based on the composition,component ratio,MCyC6/nC7,and m-xylene/(m-xylene+ nC8+ nC9),22 crude oils were divided into three groups,i.e.,Bashituo light oil groups,Hetian River light oil groups,and Kekeya light oil groups.Results show there are three layers of source rocks at least,and some oils are mixed oils,based on the aromatic parameters and carbon isotope data.
