Abstract

The invention relates to a method for separating and enriching gonane and hopane biomarkers in combination with molecular sieves, comprising the steps of 1) weighing a sample, adding the sample to a fine silica gel packed column, and leaching with n-hexane to separate out saturated hydrocarbons; 2) adding to a ZSM-5 molecular sieve packed column, and leaching with isooctane to separate out cyclic and isomeric components of the saturated hydrocarbons; 3) adding to a 13X molecular sieve packed column, leaching the column with n-pentane, and drying the column with nitrogen; 4) concentrating the solution obtained in the step 3) to a 10X molecular sieve packed column, leaching with two parts of n-pentane and collecting two fractions of gonane; 5) extracting the 13X molecular sieve for 10h with isooctane to obtain a hopane component; and 6) concentrating the solution obtained in steps 4) and 5), and measuring in a machine. The method can be used for effectively separating and enriching gonane and hopane, so that the determination of monomer hydrocarbon stable carbon isotopes of the gonane and hopane biomarkers becomes possible.

Description

Technical field:

[0001] The invention relates to a method for separating and preparing biomarker compounds sterane and hopane in petroleum geological samples. Background technique:

[0002] The oil-gas-bearing basins in central and western my country are mainly superimposed basins, where multiple sets of source rocks and reservoirs are developed, and the oil-gas-bearing systems are relatively complex. Since the source rocks in most basins are old in age, have a long history of organic matter thermal evolution, high maturity, and the distribution of source bodies in the deep area of ​​the sag is unknown, many exploratory wells cannot obtain source rocks matching the maturity of crude oil, and have to use outcropping Source rocks were used for oil-source correlation. Due to the difference in maturity, the characteristics of mass spectrometry analysis of biomarker compounds vary greatly, and the results of oil source comparison are often varied; the appearance of stable carbon...
