Abstract: According to the study on characteristics and evalution of outcrop and subsurface reservoir of major oil-bearing series in Southwestern Tarim basin,it is considered that reservoir rock of southwestern Tarim basin can be divided into two categories, i.e. carbonate and clastic rock. It has multiple types of pores in which secondary one is dominent. Diagenesis and epigenesis are major factors to control reservoir development. Fracture plays an important role to improve the reservoir property.

Key words: Tarim basin, Southwest area, Reservoir characteristics, Fommation evaluation, Carbonate rock, Clastic rock
