convergence and collision of the three main plates(Tarim
Junggar-Altun and Alxa-Qaidam)controlled the formation and development of the basins in Northwest China.The superimposed-composite prototype basins constituted different types of gas(oil)-bearing(Tarim)
oil(gas)-bearing(Junggar
Qaidam
Yining
Turpan-Harmi)and oil-bearing(west Jiuquan
Santanghu
Minhe and Badain Jaran-Tengri)basins.Among these basins
the most potential gas-bearing basin is the Tarim
then the Junggar and the Qaidam Basins
the Yining and the Turpan-Hami Basins less favourable.
