Abstract
In this work we describe the distribution of stable carbon isotopes in hydrocarbon gases from four wells located in the southern and central parts of the Western Siberia. The main goal was to understand the influence of the lithological composition and geological settings on isotopic composition of gases and their formation. Two genetically different groups of hydrocarbon gases were identified based on the author’s research, as well as analysis of archival and literature materials on the isotope composition of hydrocarbons. We estimated the close relationship between the main factors of the migration, degree of metamorphism of organic matter and the isotope composition of hydrocarbon gases produced by the Bazhenov formation.
