Abstract: The fuzzy recognition on hydrocarbon accumulation conditions in Baikouquan Formation of Cheguai slope area is a problem, which has been hindering deeper oil and gas exploration. Hydrocarbon source rock, reservoir, cap rock, migration conditions and trap types were investigated with drilling, seismic, well test and laboratory data. The study results show that many hydrocarbon source rocks supply hydrocarbon for Baikouquan oil reservoir, Fengcheng Formation and lower Wuerhe Formation being the major source rocks. Sandstone reservoirs of distributary channels (underwater) with good physical properties match well with mud-stone cap rocks developed in the three member of Baikouquan Formation, all of which made favorable reservoir-seal assemblage. Faults, hyper-osmotic sands, ancient landform and abnormal pressure create conditions for oil and gas migration and control migration path. There were two trap types named structural-litho-trap in high position and litho-trap in slope and low position. Congruent with ancient landform, sedimentary face, planar graph of faults and pressure coefficient, the result shows there are three favorable reservoir zones in study area which can supply exploration direction in Baikouquan Formation, and II reservoir zone has the best exploration potential.
