  • Overpressure and Petroleum Generation and Accumulation in the Dongying Depression of the Bohaiwan Basin, China
    Geofluids (2001) 1, 257–271 Overpressure and petroleum generation and accumulation in the Dongying Depression of the Bohaiwan Basin, China X. XIE1,2,C.M.BETHKE2 ,S.LI1 ,X.LIU1 AND H. ZHENG3 1Faculty of Earth Resources, China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, China; 2Department of Geology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL, USA; 3Institute of Petroleum Exploration and Development, Shenli Oil Corporation, Dongying, Shandong, China ABSTRACT The occurrence of abnormally high formation pressures in the Dongying Depression of the Bohaiwan Basin, a prolific oil-producing province in China, is controlled by rapid sedimentation and the distribution of centres of active petro- leum generation. Abnormally high pressures, demonstrated by drill stem test (DST) and well log data, occur in the third and fourth members (Es3 and Es4) of the Eocene Shahejie Formation. Pressure gradients in these members com- monly fall in the range 0.012–0.016 MPa mÀ1, although gradients as high as 0.018 MPa mÀ1 have been encountered. The zone of strongest overpressuring coincides with the areas in the central basin where the principal lacustrine source rocks, which comprise types I and II kerogen and have a high organic carbon content (>2%, ranging to 7.3%), are actively generating petroleum at the present day. The magnitude of overpressuring is related not only to the burial depth of the source rocks, but to the types of kerogen they contain. In the central basin, the pressure gradient within submember Es32, which contains predominantly type II kerogen, falls in the range 0.013–0.014 MPa mÀ1. Larger gra- dients of 0.014–0.016 MPa mÀ1 occur in submember Es33 and member Es4, which contain mixed type I and II kero- gen.
