Abstract


The bottom boundary of TB2.1 sequence (SB21) and the maximum flooding surface (MFS18.5) were determined by using the sequence stratigraphic analysis method combining seismic, well logging and paleontology. Then, a comprehensive evaluation was conducted on the low-stand fan complex between these two interfaces, indicating that the Baiyun fan complex has a good combination of source, reservoir and caprock, and may form a stratigraphic trap or stratigraphic-structural trap, which is an important direction for future exploration.
