“…The subsidence, thermal and maturation history of the Jász-I well from the Pannonian basin is presented in Fig. 17 as an example of an orogenic collapse setting (Horváth et al, 1988). The temperaturedepth and vitrinite reflectance-depth profiles calculated for the present are in good agreement with the observations.…”

“…However, in an extensional tectonic setting the stretching model predicts the evolution of the temperature in the lithosphere, thus also the basement heat flow. It, therefore, is evident to couple the two modelling procedures (Horváth et al, 1988van Wees et al, 2009). The fit to the thermal observations increases the reliability of the stretching model.…”

“…Since the Eocene, the Baiyun Sag has undergone the following three evolutionary stages: the Paleocene to Early Oligocene rift stage (49–30 Ma), the Late Oligocene transition stage (30–23.8 Ma), and the Early Miocene to the present depression stage (23.8–present; Figure ). ,, The corresponding terrestrial heat flow evolved from a typical rift basin to a passive continental margin. The terrestrial heat flow value gradually increased from low to high levels, peaking during the most intense expansion of the passive continental margin (the depositional period of the Zhujiang Formation in the late Early Miocene), and then experienced thermal cooling (the present terrestrial heat flow in well PY35-2-1 up to 77 W/m 2 ). − According to this trend, the thermal history (Figure ) can be simulated on the basis of the burial history and the measured R o values (the data are from the nearby exploratory well; Figure ). , …”

The deepwater area of the Baiyun Sag is the primary region of deepwater oil and gas exploration in China. Since the breakthrough made in natural gas exploration in the structure of the LW3-1 gas field, explorers have given significant attention to the conditions and process of gas generation and to the accumulation and preservation of natural gas. The Paleogene Enping Formation provides one of the two sets of major source rocks in the Baiyun Sag. We selected three samples of source rocks from the Enping Formation, performed a thermocompression simulation experiment, calculated the hydrocarbon generation kinetic parameters, and simulated single-well gas generation to explore the process of gas generation in the gasgenerating center of the Enping Formation in the Baiyun Sag. The major conclusions included the following: (1) The lacustrine dark mudstone and the carbonaceous mudstone from the Enping Formation in well HZ08-1-1 have hydrocarbon yields of 383.7 versus 307.3 kg/t of total organic carbon (TOC) and gas yields of 370.1 versus 302.9 kg/t of TOC. (2) The thermal evolution of the Enping Formation in the Baiyun Sag can be divided into three evolutionary stages. (3) Finally, the source rocks of the Enping Formation have a gas generation peak from approximately 17.5 to 8 Ma.

The Baiyun Sag, located in the northern South China Sea, is rich in oil and gas. The marine mudstone in the Upper Oligocene Zhuhai Formation of the Upper Oligocene has not previously been considered as the main source rock and was thus selected for a thermocompression simulation experiment to verify its hydrocarbon generation potential. The experimental results were used to calculate the hydrocarbon generation kinetic parameters, and the hydrocarbon generation process of the marine mudstone was simulated. The mudstones of the Upper Oligocene Zhuhai Formation in the deepwater area of the Baiyun Sag are effective source rocks. The dark shallow marine mudstones of the Upper Oligocene Zhuhai Formation from well C generate hydrocarbons at a rate of 179.79 kg/ton of total organic carbon. As a set of active source rocks, the Upper Oligocene Zhuhai Formation has reached the low mature to mature stage and mainly generates oil in the marginal areas of the Baiyun Sag, whereas they have reached a highly overmature stage and generate both oil and gas in the central areas.
