Abstract:

As a major branch of petroleum geology,the geology of hydrocarbon accumulation is focused on the research of hydrocarbon pooling and distribution,including the fundamental elements or basic conditions,geochronology,geochemistry,dynamics of hydrocarbon accumulation,and the patterns of formation and distribution of reservoirs.Currently,the focus of petroleum geology has shifted from the formation of basins and generation of hydrocarbon to hydrocarbon accumulation.The understanding of the connotation and position of hydrocarbon accumulation geology is helpful to the development of petroleum geology.

Key words: connotation, position, hydrocarbon accumulation geology, petroleum geology
