Abstract
As an important element in oil and gas, the process of mercury formation, migration and enrichment, has an important practical significance to determine the nature and preservation status of deep oil-gas reservoirs, which can provide reliable geochemical basis for oil-gas exploration departments. Therefore, basing on the study of mercury formation, migration and enrichment, the geochemical anomaly patterns of mercury are determined, and the geochemical characteristics in oil and gas are discussed. Study shows that the mercury have strong affinity with oil and gas, and it will migrate and accumulate with the maturation of kerogen; Because of the abyssal faults, magmatic activity and deep geological process, in some petroliferous basins, the oil type gas have higher mercury content; On the basis of geochemical anomaly characteristics and morphological combination of mercury in surface, the anomaly patterns in oil and gas geochemical exploration are summarized to guide the anomaly interpretation and evaluation of testing zone, so as to provide the reliable geochemical basis for oil and gas exploration department.
