南海北部边缘盆地油气勘探现状与深水油气资源前景

自20世纪60年代初开展浅海油气苗调查及浅井钻探以来，南海北部边缘盆地迄今在陆架浅水区已勘探发现多个油气田，建成了一定储量规模的油气产能，基本构成了南海北部油气富集区的格[JP2]局。然而，如何保持油气可持续发展，尽快寻找油气储量接替的新领域，这是该区油气勘探所面临的关键问题。南海北部陆坡深水区与世界深水盆地一样，颇具油气资源潜力和勘探前景，近期LW311深水探井钻探的新发现表明，其应是该区油气资源接替非常现实的战略选区和勘探靶区。

The Satus of the Petroleum Exploration in the Northern South China Sea and the Resource Potential in the Deep-water Areas

Quite a lot of oil fields have been explored in the sedimentary basins over the shallow sea in the northern south China sea;moreover,considerable production capability has been set up since the earliest oil seepage survey and shallow sea drilling in the 1960s.However,to explore new oilfields and sustain a stable development is a major challenge the petroleum developer confronted in this region.Preliminary analysis shows,the deep-water slope of the northern South China Sea has bright prospecting future as many other deep water sedimentary basins over the world.Recent gas discovery by the exploration drilling hole LW-3-1-1 further supports the fact that the deep slope is an ideal petroleum complementaty area,and a tactic target area.
