| Abstract: | A stratigraphic and depositional filling modal of Triassic—Jurassic North Tarim foreland basin system is erected, through synthetic analysis of geological setting, depositional provenance, sequence stratigraphy, and quantitative tectonic stratigraphy. The result suggests that the major factors controlling formation and evolution of the system are oblique collision and convergence of different plates, and favorite hydrocarbon plays is predicted.The geological setting analysis emphasizes the historical succession of the foreland basin system formation and evolution. The tectonic setting analysis sketchy outlines formation of the system and tectonic setting of its successive evolution. The sedimentary geology analysis reveals the uplift and subsidence of the basin basement a seesaw style movement. |
