Structure, sedimentation and reser- voir characteristics show that the development of the slope and its sand bodies' depositional genesis de- termined the types, distribution and evolution of traps. Up-dip wedge-out traps in distributary channels, lenticular traps in distal sand bars and sand sheets in the delta front are the main lithologic trap types and usually have thin reservoir beds, small areas, and are distributed in clusters and belts. The episode of tectonic inversion led to the formation of structural traps and combination traps. The combination traps are characterized by large numbers of thin oil-bearing beds occurring along fold belts. Matching axial directions of distributary channel sand bodies in delta fronts with channel morphology during the period between deposition of sand bodies and sealing by an unconformity above is the key to the search for large scale traps in a simple slope area.展开更多
