Abstract: The China mainland and nearshore areas, located in joint position of three giant plates:India Plate,Pacific Plate and Eurasia Plate.Since Phanerozoic,two massive sets of sedimentary rock series with completely different characteristics had been formed;two periods of important tectonic events had been occurred and hydrocarbon accumulated in eastern,central and western hydrocarbon-bearing regions.Because of the special petroleum geology conditions in China, presently proved reserves were mainly found in Mesozoic-Cenozoic strata in the eastern region and were mainly in structural pools.Based on the facts that reserve growth curves of basins showed shape of "multi-kurtosis type",China oil and gas reserves have been keeping growth in the recent 15 years.The second time resources estimation in China indicates that China geological tectonics are favorable to form various non-structural oil and gas pools. So there is sufficient evidence to hold that potential of oil and gas resources to be found in China is tremendous,but the explorationis are of great difficulty.It can be predicated that China proved reserves will continuously increase at the first 50 years in next century.
