摘要: 天山北麓褶皱冲断带经历了多期构造运动,于晚新生代收缩作用下定型,多期叠合作用下,基底构造对后续挤压构造的影响并不明确.基于高精度三维地震和钻井资料,结合野外地质观测,研究天山北麓中生代构造特征和变形机理,以揭示中生代构造对新生代变形和油气运聚的影响和控制因素.研究认为天山北麓中生代发育走滑断层,被白垩系-新生界覆盖.中生代走滑断裂在晚新生代挤压环境下重新激活,其上覆叠加了新生代逆冲断裂和褶皱,中生代构造的重新激活对塑造天山及其天山北麓现今构造发挥了重要作用.依据构造变形期次,将准噶尔盆地南缘的沉积层划分为浅、中、深3个构造层,对应上、中、下3套油气成藏组合;其中,中、深构造层具有较大勘探潜力.揭示天山北麓深部断层与后期挤压构造的关系,明确多期构造叠合演化对油气勘探的影响,为中国西部盆地类似构造研究提供借鉴.Abstract: The fold-thrust belt in the northern piedmont of the Tianshan Mountains underwent polyphase tectonic deformation, acquiring its present configuration during the Late Cenozoic contractional regime. Under multiphase superposition, the influence of basement architecture on subsequent compressive deformation remains constrained. This study investigates the Mesozoic structural characteristics and deformation mechanisms in the northern piedmont of the Tianshan Mountains based on seismic, drilling, and field observation data, aiming to reveal the influence and controlling factors of Mesozoic structures on Cenozoic deformation and hydrocarbon migration-accumulation. Strike-slip faults were developed in the Mesozoic in the northern piedmont of Tianshan Mountain, and were covered by the Cretaceous-Cenozoic strata. Under the Late Cenozoic compression environment, the Mesozoic strike-slip fault was reactivated, and the Cenozoic thrust fault and fold superimposed on the Mesozoic fault. The reactivation of Mesozoic structures played an important role in shaping the present structure of the northern piedmont of Tianshan Mountain. According to the deformation sequence, the sedimentary strata in the southern Junggar basin. are divided into three structural layers—shallow, intermediate, and deep. These tiers correspond to upper, middle, and lower hydrocarbon accumulation assemblages, respectively, with the intermediate and deep structural tiers demonstrating particularly significant exploration potential. In this paper it reveals the relationship between deep faults and late compressive structures in the northern piedmont of Tianshan Mountain, explains the influence of multi-stage tectonic evolution on oil and gas exploration, and has reference significance for the study of similar structures in the basins of western China.
