摘　　要：采用固体样品,实验模拟了地层条件下(8MPa,70℃)气藏天然气在扩散过程中的地球化学变化特征。模拟实验结果研究表明:a)随着天然气扩散作用的进行,气藏气中甲烷的相对百分含量逐渐减少,而乙烷和丙烷的相对含量相应地增大;扩散气与气藏气存在类似的组分变化趋势,但扩散气中甲烷的相对百分含量高于同一时间气藏气中甲烷的相对百分含量,而乙烷及丙烷的相对百分含量低于气藏气中乙烷和丙烷的相应值,这些都是地层色层效应的具体体现;b)同一时间气藏气中正丁烷的相对百分含量高于扩散气中正丁烷的相对百分含量,而异丁烷的相对百分含量低于扩散气中异丁烷的相应值,这也是地层色层效应的结果;c)C1/(C2+C3)和iC4/nC4可作为天然气运移的地球化学指标;d)气藏气和扩散气组分百分含量与气体扩散比例之间分别存在对数线性相关关系和二次函数相关关系,这种函数关系可为应用模拟实验结果计算气藏扩散量,评价气藏天然气资源前景,探讨天然气在扩散过程中的组分变化以及预测同源不同层天然气藏资源量提供启示。In order to study the geochemical characteristics of natural gas during diffusion, an experimental simulation under stratigraphic condition (70 ℃, 8 MPa) has been performed on a solid sample. During the diffusion of natural gas, the relative percentage of methane in reservoir gas gradually decreases, but the relative percentages of ethane and propane increase correspondingly. The diffusive gas shows the same compositional varying tendency as the reservoir gas, but the relative percentage of methane in diffusive gas is higher than that in reservoir gas at the same time, and the relative percentages of ethane and propane in diffusive gas are lower than those in reservoir gas. These phenomena are all caused by stratigraphic (chromatographic- effect. The relative percentage of normal butane in reservoir gas is higher than that in (diffusive- gas at the same time, and the relative percentage of isobutane in reservoir gas is lower than that in diffusive gas. This is also the result of stratigraphic chromatographic effect. The C_1/(C_2+C_3) and i C_4/ n C_4 values may be used as the geochemical indexes of natural gas migration. There exist a logarithmic (linear- correlative relation between the relative percentage of compositions of reservoir gas and the diffusive gas percentage and a quadratic relation between the relative percentage of compositions of diffusive gas and the diffusive gas percentage. These relations may be helpful for calculating the amount of diffusive gas, (evaluating- the reservoir gas resource prospect, deeply understanding into the variation of compositions of natural gas during diffusion and predicting the total resources of natural gas derived from the same source rock but preserved in reservoirs with different ages.
