The Triassic strata in the Lunnan area of the Tarim Basin represent a continental deltaic sedimentary system,with sedimentary subfacies including deltaic plain,deltaic front,and prodelta.The rapid phase transition of reservoirs and the high-frequency sand-mudstone alternating deposition create thin,highly heterogeneous reservoirs,rendering high-precision reservoir prediction extremely challenging.Under the guidance of sedimentary petrology and seismic sequence stratigraphy,this study conducted comprehensive seismic and geological research.Then,based on isochronous sequence interpretation,as well as seismic facies analytical results,this study established a lithofacies model.By constraining the pre-stack geostatistical inversion process,this study determined the spatial distribution of sand bodies.The practical application demonstrates that the proposed method enhances the vertical resolution of heterogeneous,thin reservoirs while significantly reducing lateral uncertainty.The predicted results align with actual drilling and production performance data and thus can provide valuable support for the efficient exploitation of hydrocarbon reservoirs.
