Abstract
Chemical structure of immature sulfur-rich kerogen and composition of immature sulfur-rich crude oil in Jianghan oil field have been studied . In molecular level, crude oil differs from thermolysed and chemolyse d products of kerogen but does resemble the bitumen in immature sulfur -rich source rock. Therefore, immature sulfur-rich oil may be derived from the expelling of bitumen rather than from thermal cracking of ker ogen.
