Abstract

Reports that the Kela-2 gas field is located in the center of Kelasu structural belt in Kuqa Depression. Fact that this trap is one of a series of traps in the folded belts which are distributed in a string of pearls in the dual structure; Statement that the primary gasbearing layers are sandstone of Lower Cretaceous K&sub1;bs while the secondary layers are dolomite member and glutenite member of Lower Tertiary E&sub1-2;km and sandstone of Lower Cretaceous K&sub1;b; Reference to the fact that the main component of natural gas is methane whose content is higher than 97%; Characterization by dry gas whose source rock is Jurassic coal measure; Formation of the Kela-2 structural trap during the Xiyu period, becoming a reservoir in the late time; Formation of late and the thick seal rock of Lower Tertiary gipsmantle in the reservoir as the avail reason why the giant Kela-2 gas field has been well kept; Conclusion that the abnormal high pressure of the Kela-2 gas field results from the strong structural compression in the northern part during the Xiyu period.
