Abstract: The southeast slope in Weixinan Depression of Beibuwan Basin is an important hydrocarbon accumulation area. In order to study the genesis types and accumulation characteristics of its crude oil,the biomarkers and isotopic geochemical characteristics of the crude oil in the southeast slope were analyzed. The results show that:(1)The crude oil in the southeast slope can be divided into two types. The first type of crude oil has low 4-methyl sterane abundance and low carbon isotope, and mainly distributed in the first member of Liushagang Formation,while the second type of crude oil has high 4-methyl sterane abundance and higher carbon isotope,and mainly distributed in the second and third member of Liushagang Formation and Weizhou Formation.(2)Hydrocarbon source rocks in the southeast slope can be divided into two hydrocarbon combination through geochemistry characteristics in combination with sedimentary environment. The upper hydrocarbon combination mainly includes the mudstone of the first member of Liushagang Formation and the middle mudstone of the second member of Liushagang Formation,while the lower hydrocarbon combination mainly includes the bottom oil shale of the second member of Liushagang Formation and the upper mudstone of the third member of Liushagang Formation.(3)Through analyzing the biomarkers and isotopic characteristics of oil and source rocks, it is concluded that the first type of crude oil is from the upper hydrocarbon combination,and the second type of crude oil is from the lower hydrocarbon combination. The petrofacies of source rocks controlled the distribution of different types of crude oil. The second and third member of Liushagang Formation,Jiaowei Formation,Xiayang Formation and basement weathering crust in the southeast slope are all favorable areas for searching for the second type of crude oil,while lithologic traps in the first member of Liushagang Formation are favorable areas for searching for the first type of crude oil.

Key words: carbon isotope, biomarkers, oil source correlation, accumulation characteristics, Weixinan Depression, Beibuwan Basin
