10 Migration History Vivian Formation, Marañon Basin, Late Migration Eocene Migration Whole crude gas chromatograph of oil from the Cretaceous Vivian Formation in the Jibaro Field, Marañon Basin (GeoMark, 1997). The hydrocarbon fraction to the right of C15 is highly biodegraded. A later phase of migration is indicated by presence of nonbiodegraded C1 to C15 hydrocarbons. After Higley, 2001.

Given the immense size of the structure (2 km of closure and 50 km wide) the reserves trapped could be considerable. Calculations for 40º API, with a predicted oil/water contact tilt of 7 m/km in the Cushabatay, indicate that over a billion BBls of oil could be trapped. Reservoir quality and oil charge are serious risk factors.
34 Outline 1. Petroleum Geology 2. Paleo Hydrogeology and Dynamic Oil Migration 3. Hydrogeology and Dynamic Oil Migration 4. Conclusions
35 Conclusions 1. The basin is hydrodynamically active due to outcrop of major aquifers at high elevation in Andes Foothills. 2. Main Vivian reservoir contains oil fields with oil/water contact tilts up to 15 m/km. 3. The southern basin received only paleo oil charge. Three narrow re-migrated oil fairways with potential tilted accumulations are mapped.
36 Conclusions 4. The northern basin received both paleo and present day oil charge. Four broad oil fairways with potential accumulations exist. 5. A major hydrodynamic trap may exist downdip of the shelf edge in the northern basin. 6. Biodegradation was widespread during paleo-time but is limited to the shallow basin margins today.
