The upper Permian Changxing Formation in eastern Sichuan has a large reservoir thickness, wide area and high reserve abundance, which has broad prospects for exploration and development. With the continuous development of exploration and development, the prediction accuracy of the distribution of bioreef reservoir is higher. Through a large number of studies and combined with the previous research results, this paper forms a facies-controlled reef reservoir prediction method, it fully integrates Geological understanding and seismic results, and divides the favorable sedimentary facies of reefs based on seismic attribute analysis and ancient geomorphological restoration. Using the effective seismic inversion technique to predict the distribution of bioreef reservoirs in the scope of favorable sedimentary facies. This method can effectively improve the prediction accuracy of reef reservoir and achieve better application results.
