[0048] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in this application without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0049] For ease of understanding, please refer to Figure 1 , the embodiments of this application provide a thermal history simulation method based on the Ar-Ar dating method, including:

[0050] Step 101: Obtain several groups of vertical profile thermal history curves of the geological body to be simulated, where each group of vertical profile thermal history curves includes the thermal history curves of samples at different heights on the vertical profile of the geological body to be simulated.

[0051] Several groups of vertical profile thermal history curves can be randomly assumed by methods such as Monte Carlo. Specifically, after obtaining several samples at different heights on the vertical profile of the geological body to be simulated, select one sample from all the samples as the target sample, and assume N thermal history curves of the target sample within a preset time range and a preset temperature range. The thermal history curve is a time-temperature curve; calculate the temperature difference between each non-target sample and the target sample according to the height difference between each non-target sample and the target sample; superimpose the temperature difference between each non-target sample and the target sample on the basis of each thermal history curve of the target sample to obtain the thermal history curves of each non-target sample, thereby obtaining N groups of vertical profile thermal history curves.

[0052] Obtain multiple samples of the geological formation to be simulated at different altitudes on a vertical section, and select one sample from the multiple samples as the target sample. The target sample can be the bottom sample or the top sample, etc. Determine the preset time range and preset temperature range of the thermal history curve of the sample according to the geological background of the geological formation to be simulated, and then generate N thermal history curves of the target sample by means of hypothesis within the preset time range and preset temperature range. The thermal history curves of other non-target samples can be obtained by deforming the thermal history curve of the target sample. First, calculate the height difference between each non-target sample and the target sample, and multiply the height difference between each non-target sample and the target sample by the paleogeothermal gradient to obtain the temperature difference between each non-target sample and the target sample. Select a thermal history curve i of the target sample, and superimpose the temperature difference between each non-target sample and the target sample on the basis of this thermal history curve to obtain the thermal history curves of each non-target sample. At this time, the thermal history curves of each non-target sample obtained based on the thermal history curve i and this thermal history curve i of the target sample together form a set of thermal history curves for the vertical section, that is, when a thermal history curve of a sample is assumed, a set of thermal history curves representing samples at different heights on the vertical section can be constructed. Since there are N thermal history curves of the target sample, correspondingly, N sets of thermal history curves for the vertical section can be obtained, and the number of thermal history curves in each set of thermal history curves for the vertical section is the same as the number of samples of the geological formation to be simulated.

[0053] Step 102: Based on the preset closure temperature, obtain the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to each set of thermal history curves for the vertical section by the Ar-Ar dating method, where the Ar-Ar simulated age group includes the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to the minimum closure temperature and the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to the maximum closure temperature.

[0054] Preset the Ar closure temperature to obtain the preset closure temperature. According to the spherical grain diffusion equation of the mica Ar-Ar chronology method, calculate the Ar-Ar simulated age to obtain the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to each set of thermal history curves for the vertical section. The preset closure temperature in the embodiments of the present application is a range, which can be 350-450 °C. Then, the calculation results of the Ar-Ar simulated age corresponding to each set of thermal history curves for the vertical section each have a maximum value and a minimum value, corresponding to the maximum closure temperature (such as 450 °C) and the minimum closure temperature (such as 350 °C) respectively, which means that the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to each set of thermal history curves for the vertical section is also a range.

[0055] Step 103: Calculate the goodness of fit of each set of thermal history curves for the vertical section according to the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to the minimum closure temperature and the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to the maximum closure temperature.

[0056] Since the Ar-Ar simulated age of each sample is a range, for example, 100 - 200 Ma, rather than a specific simulated age value obtained by methods such as fission track and U-Th / He. Therefore, the existing goodness-of-fit calculation method cannot be used to calculate the goodness-of-fit of each group of vertical profile thermal history curves. The formula for the goodness-of-fit in this application is as follows:

[0057]

[0058] In the formula, p is the goodness-of-fit, A is the experimental test age, σ is the experimental test age error, x is the Ar-Ar simulated age, is the ratio coefficient, which plays a key role in the calculation of the goodness-of-fit, Min is the minimum value function, D is the experimental test age group, is the mean value of the experimental test age group error, M 1 、M 2 are respectively the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to the minimum closure temperature and the Ar-Ar simulated age group corresponding to the maximum closure temperature.

[0059] In the embodiment of this application, by comparing the boundary values of the Ar-Ar simulated age with the test age respectively, and then evaluating the goodness-of-fit through the comparison results of the two boundary values, the possible range is expanded a lot, that is, the admission condition is very wide, so as to retain the effective simulated thermal history as much as possible, which helps to improve the simulation accuracy.

[0060] Step 104: Screen the vertical profile thermal history curves through the goodness-of-fit of each group of vertical profile thermal history curves to obtain the screened vertical profile thermal history curves.

[0061] Set a first threshold and a second threshold, where the first threshold is less than the second threshold; retain the vertical profile thermal history curves with a goodness-of-fit greater than the first threshold as the acceptable vertical profile thermal history curves; retain the vertical profile thermal history curves with a goodness-of-fit greater than the second threshold as the high-precision vertical profile thermal history curves.

[0062] After obtaining the goodness-of-fit of each group of vertical profile thermal history curves, set the threshold of the p value to determine whether each group of thermal history curves is eliminated or retained. For example, we can set the first threshold to 0.05, and retain the vertical profile thermal history curves with p > 0.05 as the acceptable vertical profile thermal history curves; we can set the second threshold to 0.5, and retain the vertical profile thermal history curves with p > 0.5, and all are marked as thermal history curves with high precision and high probability close to the true value, that is, as the high-precision vertical profile thermal history curves.

[0063] Step 105: Obtain the final simulation result of the geological area to be simulated based on the screened vertical profile thermal history curves.

[0064] When the high-precision vertical profile thermal history curve group is included in the filtered vertical profile thermal history curve group, calculate the average value of the curve values of the thermal history curves of the same sample in the high-precision vertical profile thermal history curve group at a number of identical time points, and connect the average values of the curve values of each sample at each time point in chronological order to obtain the final thermal history curve simulation result of the geological formation to be simulated;

[0065] When the high-precision vertical profile thermal history curve group is not included in the filtered vertical profile thermal history curve group, calculate the average value of the curve values of the thermal history curves of the same sample in the acceptable vertical profile thermal history curve group at a number of identical time points, and connect the average values of the curve values of each sample at each time point in chronological order to obtain the final thermal history curve simulation result of the geological formation to be simulated.

[0066] The retained thermal history curves can be divided into 100 equal parts by time for average value calculation, that is, the temperature values of all the thermal history curves corresponding to each sample are averaged according to the same time coordinate to obtain a series of average temperature-time nodes, and connecting them in chronological order is output as the final result of the thermal history simulation. If there is a high-precision vertical profile thermal history curve group, the average value of the high-precision vertical profile thermal history curve group is preferentially obtained as the final simulation result. If no high-precision thermal history curve is retained, the average value of the acceptable vertical profile thermal history curve group is output as the final result.

[0067] Thermal history simulation is carried out on the muscovite Ar-Ar age, and the parameters are shown in Table 1. The thermal history simulation results are as Figure 2 shown. Each simulation searches 10,000 times. The gray and black areas represent the acceptable thermal history (GOF>0.05) and the high-precision thermal history (GOF>0.5) respectively. The two solid lines in the middle are the average values of the acceptable vertical profile thermal history curve group (GOF>0.05) and the high-precision vertical profile thermal history curve group (GOF>0.5) respectively.

[0070] In the embodiments of the present application, by obtaining the thermal history curves of multiple samples at different heights on a vertical section, several vertical section thermal history curve groups are obtained. By using the Ar-Ar dating method to obtain the Ar-Ar simulated ages of each sample, since the preset closure temperature is a range, the corresponding Ar-Ar simulated ages are also a range. By comparing the boundary values of the Ar-Ar simulated ages with the measured ages respectively, and then evaluating the goodness of fit through the comparison results of the two boundary values, the range of possibilities is expanded a lot, that is, the admission conditions are very wide, so as to retain as much effective simulated thermal history as possible, which helps to improve the simulation accuracy and solve the technical problem of the low accuracy of the thermal history simulation results on the vertical section existing in the prior art.
