Abstract: The biomarker assemblage of immature crude oil from Qintong sag shows its multi-source complex characteristics. Higher plant and thallogen microbes are the most important hydrocarbon-generating kerogen of the oil, accounting for 40%~70% and 12%~40% of the total amount of hydrocarbon generation, respectively. Meanwhile, according to the source rocks in different horizons and the biomarker geochemistry, the main oil source of immature crude oil in this area is analyzed.

Key words: Qintong sag, immature oil, biomarker, oil-source correlation
