Oil and gas originated from organic 1) ____________ in sedimentary rocks. The origin of coal on land is a process similar to the 2) ____________ of petroleum in the sea. The generation of hydrocarbons from the source material depends primarily on the maximum 3) ____________ to which the organic material is subjected. Hydrocarbon generation reaches a maximum within the 4) ____________ of 225° F to 350° F. After generation the hydrocarbons under high 5) ____________ in the fine-grained 6) ____________ rock start to 7) ____________ to a reservoir. 8) ____________ is a continuing process. Once the 9) ____________ have been generated and expelled from the source rock, on its way through porous and 10) ____________ rocks hydrocarbon flow can be stopped by an 11) ____________ layer known as a 12) ____________. Thus oil and gas are entrapped in a 13) ____________ and fractured 14) ____________ rock.

В настоящее время при поиске нефти и газа геологи - нефтяники руководствуются научно-техническими принципами.
Изучая, сопоставляя и интерпретируя информацию, полученную при помощи снимков с воздуха, спутниковых изображений и геофизических исследований, геологи могут достаточно точно определить подземные структуры, содержащие скопления углеводородов.
Каждый геолог - нефтяник должен знать, что такое материнская порода, коллектор, порода-покрышка, ловушка, время созревания и миграция.
Знание стратиграфии, палеогеографии и седиментологии площади помогает при оконтуривании и определении потенциальных материнских и коллекторских пород.
Перекрывающая порода не допускает миграцию углеводородов из коллектора, поэтому необходимо произвести оценку ее толщины и протяженности.
Ловушка – это пористый, проницаемый слой породы, перекрытый непроницаемым пластом.
Созревание пород зависит от температуры. Образование нефти и газа происходит при температурном диапазоне от 60° до 120° С.
Перемещение нефти из материнской породы в коллекторские породы называют первичной миграцией.
Вторичная миграция – это передвижение нефти и газа в коллекторах.
Тщательное изучение миграции углеводородов помогает обнаружить месторождения нефти.
Открытие новых месторождений и переоценка старых – это продолжительный и дорогостоящий процесс. Научный подход и выбор соответствующих методов значительно увеличивают шансы на успех.
