Abstract

Abstract

Ordos Basin is one of the earliest areas to find petroleum in China.For a long time, few of petroleum has been discovered in the basin because of both its structural characteristics and ultra low porosity and permeability in Triassic Yanchang Formation.As a result, the explorationists were lost in a dilemma with "oil shows in every hole, but no oil flow in all holes".In recent 20 years, along with the concept of oil exploration in foreland basins, remarkable breakthrough has been made in the several basins in western China.The study for foreland basins in western China is still at an early stage.We should further researched on the generalities of foreland basins in the future.
