Abstract
Geographically, the central Sichuan Basin is located within the inner Upper Yangtz craton. It was developed with multi-stage structural evolutions, the transformation of multi-period tectonic movement, multi-type basin superposition, multi-cycle sedimentary filling, and multi-stage hydrocarbon accumulation from Sinian to Middle Triassic.
