The middle Yangtze region is located in the middle of South China, including most of Hubei Province and the northwest of Hunan Province. Its geomorphic types are complex and diverse, and it is mainly mountainous. Structurally, it can be divided into the Jianghan Basin, Zigui Basin, Western Hunan Hubei uplift area, central Hunan area and the Dongting Lake area. In recent years, unconventional gas exploration has made new progress. There are many sets of source rocks in this area, which are rich in oil and gas resources. It has multi age and multi type accumulation combinations. This area has great potential for unconventional oil and gas resources and it is one of the important areas for unconventional oil and gas exploration in China.
