“…These are represented by oil from TD2 in the Cambrian reservoir and Tz62 in the Silurian reservoir (Xiao et al, 2005;Tang and Wang, 2007). By contrast, oils derived from the Middle-Upper Ordovician source rocks, such as Ym2 oil (Li et al, 2010a), have different characteristics, with low content of C 30 dinosteranes, Gammacerane, and C 28 regular steranes but relatively abundant diasteranes (Zhang et al, 2002b;2004a;Wang and Xiao, 2004). C 28 regular steranes were thought to originate mainly from diatoms, coccolithophores and dinoflagellates, which were important organic input for the Cambrian-Lower Ordovician source rocks.…”
