| Summary: | Huhehu Sag is a sag with high exploration degree in Hailar Basin. With large sedimentary thickness, complete stratigraphic development and excellent oil generation conditions, it is the main oil- and gas-producing sag in Hailar Basin. The primary source rocks are the Nantun Formation, with the Tongbomiao and Damoguaihe Formations as secondary sources. Hydrocarbon accumulation periods in the sag were comprehensively analyzed using methodologies including source rock hydrocarbon generation-expulsion history, authigenic illite dating of reservoirs, and fluid inclusion homogenization temperature analysis. Results reveal two major accumulation stages: Stage 1 (125–90 Ma), corresponding to the depositional period of the Yimin Formation, represented the peak paleo-geothermal regime and the primary hydrocarbon accumulation phase. Intensive hydrocarbon generation and expulsion, coupled with robust migration dynamics, facilitated large-scale oil and gas pooling. Stage 2(65 Ma-now), from the deposition of Qingyuangang Formation to the present, uplift and denudation reduce the burial depth of source rocks, the hydrocarbon generation intensity is weakened. This phase involved secondary adjustments of pre-existing reservoirs and continued charging of newly generated hydrocarbons. The Huhehu Sag is a typical half-graben structure. Fault-block and fault-lithologic reservoirs dominate, distributed zonally along gentle and steep slopes. Lithologic reservoirs primarily occur near or within the central hydrocarbon-generating sub-sags. The most favorable hydrocarbon accumulation zones are located in the sub-sag centers and adjacent areas with high-quality reservoirs.
