In this paper, we study the structural characteristics and sedimentary filling differences of the passive continental margin basins of East Africa and establish hydrocarbon accumulation models in different basins. In the research process, the research methods of prototype basin and lithofacies paleogeography restoration, oil and gas reservoir anatomy, two-dimensional seismic data interpretation, etc. The passive continental margin basins in East Africa are divided into four types of passive continental margin basins, namely “rifted type,” “depressed type,” “faulted depression type,” and “reformed delta type,” based on the three prototype stages of intracontinental aborted rift, intracontinental-intercontinental rift, and passive continental margin basin, and the difference in sedimentary filling thickness between rift and depression periods. Finally, the accumulation models of different types of basins are established, and the favorable accumulation combinations and future exploration directions are discussed. |
