    Abstract
  • The shale of Yanchang Formation in Upper Triassic is the most important source rock for the Mesozoic petroleum reserviors in Ordos Basin. Chang 7 and Chang 4+5 members are the major source rock formation. Source rock samples, obtained from 22 cored wells in central Ordos Basin, were geochemically analyzed to determine the organic matter abundance, kerogen type and thermal maturity. Total organic carbon values ranged from 0.36% to 19.10%, 8.09% on average, indicating a good source rock potential. In this area, the shale is mature, as indicated by vitrinite reflectance values. Rock-Eval data revealed that the samples are dominated by type Ⅱ kerogen. Compare the Chang 7 and Chang 4+5 members, which suggests that the Chang 7 shale has higher TOC, especially the highest lower Chang 7 members. The abundance of organic matter of Chang 4+5 and Chang 7 members is both richest in southeast basin. The kerogen type of Chang 4+5 and upper Chang 7 members is type Ⅱ1, the counterpart of middle and lower Chang 7 member is type Ⅰ. During the burial history, the total hydrocarbon-generating quantity of Chang 7 member is much more than that of Chang 4+5 members.
