Abstract

Qaidam Basin is rich in oil and gas resources.Its exploration layer in North,west and east part is Jurassic,Paleogene,Neogene and Quaternary respectively.As the research progress and drilling success of Carboniferous in North Xinjiang,Carboniferous has become into a very important exploration layer in the West of China.And Carboniferous also attracts many attentions of explorationists in Qaidam Basin.Field survey shows that Carboniferous is the potential source rocks in Qaidam Basin.Gravity,magnetic and electric data obtained in the past 10 years in the Qaidam Basin and its surrounding places were full used to determine the distribution of the Carboniferous.All these data were interpreted,inverted and synthetically studied directing towards carboniferous.The result gives the distribution characteristics of Carboniferous and its oil and gas exploration target in Qaidam.
