Abstract: On the basis of Simulated Optimization Theory, basic rule for oil-gas recovery, the whole optimal configuration principle along with characters of available operation and productivity construction, a model of optimized configuration is developed which takes comprehensively into account of the exploration and development potentials, economic and reasonable utilization of petroleum resources and take productivity, production, investment and cost as discrete resource configuration objects. Using this method, the developed oilfields and non-producing reserves can be integrated organically with and including specific or local technologies and operating status under the market economy. It can be as quantitative analysis approach and optimizing tool for scientific determi-nation of annual producing scale, productivity construction and investment scope and cost control, etc. According to this model, this paper presents the analysis and validation between actual data from exploration and development during period of “he Ninth Five-Year Plan” and those of “he Tenth Five-Year Plan”,and provides the total number of recommended projects and specific areas or zones that will be as priority for development.
