Abstract: On the basis of correlation of geochemical characteristics of oil-oil and oil-source rock, it is considered that oil in the middle and western parts of Luntai faulted up-lift zone was generated from lacustrine mudstone of Huangshanjie formation (Triassic) in Kuqa depression, and oil in the eastern part was from limnetic coal measure of Jurassic in Kuqa depression, which have extremely high hydrocarbon-generated potencial.

Key words: Tarim basin, Luntai faulted uplift zone, Kuqa depression, Jurassic, Triassic, Strata, Source rock evaluation
