Phase states of hydrous-hydrocarbon fluids at elevated and high temperatures and pressures: Study of the forms and maximal depths of oil occurrence in the Earth's interior

摘要

Based on synthetic fluid inclusions in quartz grown at 240-490A degrees C and 7-150 MPa in aqueous-oil solutions, the behavior, composition, and phase states of liquid, gaseous, and solid hydrocarbons (HC) were studied. Investigations were performed using common and fluorescent microscopy, microthermometry, local common and high-temperature IR Fourier spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, chromatography, and X-ray and microprobe analysis. The data obtained allowed us to understand the influence of thermobaric conditions and volume proportions of the oil, aqueous, and gaseous phases on the composition, phase state, and behavior of hydrous-hydrocarbon fluids and estimate the forms and probable maximal depths of the origin of oil in the Earth's interior.
