Geology
- The reservoirs range from the fluvial-lacustrine sandstone of the Eocene quicksand granite layer, to the shallow sea sandstone of Jiaowei in the Miocene, and to the Weizhou sandstone of the Oligocene.
- The quality of the oil ranges from light to heavy, with low to medium viscosity and some waxy crudes.
