Abstract
Carbon isotopic composition of methane in Ordovician gas reservoir in the Changqing Gasfield can reflect the dominance of Upper Paleozoic coaltype gas despite its high mature degree. The12C-rich ethane in the Ordovician reservoir (δ13C2 < −29%), known as a marker as oiltype gas, does not indicate the Ordovician marine carbonate as main source rock, it is because of the relative less ethane content in coaltype gas than in oiltyped gas due to generation and migration. The way of Upper Paleozoic coaltype gas migrating into the Ordovician reservoir is widely through the unconformlty instead of only through the erosion groove in the weathering crust.
