Compressional salt structures of salt-bearing sedimentary basins and its significance to hydrocarbon accumulation

The compressional salt structure is an important type of salt structure formed under the action of regional compressional stress field, which plays an important role in the generation, migration and trap accumulation of oil and gas in sedimentary basins.In the past few decades, important progress has been made in the study of compressional salt structures, which effectively guides the exploration of oil and gas reservoirs in compressional salt sedimentary basins.Based on the physical characteristics of salt rocks, deformation evolution of compressional salt structure and its influence on hydrocarbon accumulation distribution, this paper discusses the deformation evolution characteristics of compressional salt structure, and analyzes the typical salt-bearing fold-and-thrust belt at home and abroad and their hydrocarbon accumulation characteristics.And by comparing the domestic and foreign salt-bearing fold-and-thrust belt and typical oil and gas reservoirs, it summarizes that the domestic and foreign typical s
