This study investigates pathways of secondary oil migration, which lead to oil accumulations in the Dongying Depression with both geochemistry and basin modelling techniques. Modelling of oil migration pathways was conducted for the third and fourth members (Es3 and Es4) of the Shahejie Formation, i...
