Abstract Primary gas accumulation with trillions of cubic meters of gas volumes was discovered recently in the Precambrian Dengying Formation of the Gaoshiti-Moxi block, Central Sichuan Basin, China. In this study we investigated the pervasive saddle dolomite cements and solid bitumens within karst vugs in the Dengying dolomite reservoirs. Using laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) in situ U-Pb dating, we obtained a high-precision absolute age of 259.4 ± 3.0 Ma for the saddle dolomite cementation, consistent in timing with the eruption of Emeishan flood basalts (262–251 Ma). Combined with high homogenization temperatures (Th) and salinities of primary fluid inclusion, as well as rare earth element (REE) compositions, we consider that the saddle dolomite precipitation was likely related to hydrothermal activity driven by the Emeishan mantle plume. The identification of rare surviving oil inclusions and extensive solid bitumens within the dolomite vugs is indicative of the presence of paleo-oil reservoirs. These bitumens are characterized by high equivalent vitrinite reflectance (Requ), no fluorescence, and deformed fibrous textures, typical of highly mature pyrobitumens. Gas geochemistry data indicates that only minor thermochemical sulfate reduction (TSR) has occurred. Thus the pyrobitumen was interpreted to result mainly from the thermal cracking of paleo-oils, and its associated Re-Os isochron age of 154 ± 21 Ma, representing the timing of dry gas formation. Petrographical evidence suggests that the paleo-oil charge must have taken place after sparry dolomite cementation but prior to pyrobitumen generation. This, combined with coeval aqueous inclusion Th data and published thermal-burial models, constrains the time of paleo-oil emplacement to ca. 222–205 Ma, suggesting an oil-filling event related to the Indosinian Orogeny. This study documented the first chronological data constraining the complex evolution history of a petroleum system in one of the oldest primary gas reservoirs in the world.
