1 3D Thermokinematic Modelling of the Colombian Eastern Cordillera: Refining the Timing of Oil Generation and Expulsion Using Multiple Thermochronometers* Andrés Mora 1, Isaid Quintero 1, Richard Styron 1, Michael Raghib 1, Mauricio Parra1, and Richard A. Ketcham 1 Search and Discovery Article #41222 (2013)** Posted October 22, 2013 *Adapted from oral presentation at AAPG Annual Convention and Exhibition, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, May 19-22, 2013 **AAPG 2013 Serial rights given by author. For all other rights contact author directly. 1 Ecopetrol-ICP (andres.mora@ecopetrol.com.co) Abstract The Colombian Eastern Cordillera of Colombia is a place where multiple shaly units with source-rock potential have been deposited since the Early Cretaceous. Traditionally, the generation and migration models for the region have only considered the Turonian shales coeval with the organic-rich La Luna Formation as the main source rock. Precise 3D time temperature conditions combined with a kinematic structural evolution of the basin are required in order to understand when the different potential source-rock intervals entered the oil window, and compare that with the presence and absence of traps in the adjacent foreland basins. Ecopetrol-ICP has acquired an unprecedented amount of thermochronometric data over the past several years (e.g., more than 3000 individual He ages, more than 600 apatite-fission track (AFT) and zircon-fission track (ZFT) analyses) and hundreds of vitrinite reflectance data. Here we present the results of 3D thermokinematic modeling supported on that data, using public domain and new in-house software tools. The modeling supports the presence of multiple generation and expulsion episodes starting in the Late Cretaceous. This information increases the potential to find further oil resources in the Llanos foreland basin, east of the Eastern Cordillera kitchens. Selected References Escalona, A., and P.

57 CONCLUSIONS THERMOCHRONOLOGY MUST BE USED WITH CAUTION WHEN IT IS INTENDED TO INCORPORATE THESE TYPES OF DATA IN KINEMATIC RESTORATIONS. AGES RARELY HAVE GEOLOGICAL MEANING/ PROCESSING MODELLING IS NEEDED (1D). AND THERMOKINEMATIC MODELLING IS THE WAY TO PROCEED WHEN THERE IS NO GROWTH STRATA TO PRODUCE KINEMATIC RESTORATIONS BUT THERMOCHRON DATA IS ABUNDANT. (2D/3D) WE SHOW A CASE STUDY WHERE ISOTHERM ADVECTION IS SIGNIFICANT ONLY IN PRESENCE OF FAST DEFORMATION RATES. THERMOKINEMATIC MODELLING HELPS TO UNDERSTAND WHY OLDER (> 20 Ma) INVERSION TRAPS TEND TO HAVE HEAVY BIODEGRADED OILS (e.g. Chichimene, Castilla). 55
