Abstract: The formation and development of Qongkuqak structural zone underwent two stages, i.e, Hercynian paleostructural forming stage and Himalayan present-structural forming stage. Based on analysis of structural development history in this structural zone,control of paleostructure on reservoir, control of paleotectonic movement on hydrocarbon accumulation and then hydrocarbon distribution are studied. It is believed that present oil-gas pool is actually Qongkuqak paleostructual reservoir. West area of W ell Q-5 has still huge unproved reserves and is very favorable area for petroleum exploration. Also, this paper offers prediction of the favorable reservoir and hydrocarbon distribution extent by applying reservoir lateral prediction and hydrocarbons detection techniques.

Key words: Tarim basin, Carboniferous, paleostructure, reservoir, oil and gas distribution
