The exploration of unconventional oil and gas, especially the exploration process of tight oil, is closely related to the evolution of tight reservoirs and the accumulation process. In order to investigate the densification and accumulation process of the Fuyu tight oil reservoir in the Sanzhao depression, Songliao Basin, through the new understanding of reservoir petrological characteristics, diagenesis and diagenetic sequence are combined with a large number of inclusions: temperature measurement, spectral energy measurement, and single-well burial history analysis, and then contrastive analysis with current reservoir conditions. The results prove that diagenesis is dominated by compaction and cementation, and the restoration of paleoporosity shows that its porosity reduction rate reached 67% and the densification process started in the early Nenjiang Formation and was finalized at the end of the Nenjiang Formation. The accumulation of the Fuyu oil layer generally has the characteristics of two stages and multiple episodes, and the main accumulation period is the end of the Mingshui Formation. The end of the Nenjiang Formation, where the main body of the reservoir is densified, is just a prelude to the massive expulsion of hydrocarbons in the Songliao Basin, which makes the Fuyu oil layer have the characteristics of first compacting and then accumulating. Through the above analysis, it can be seen that the accumulation of oil and gas in the Fuyu oil layer, Sanzhao depression, is more dependent on the fault-dominated transport system. In addition, it is believed that tight oil accumulation should have the characteristics of short-distance oil enrichment around the fault, and the development area of fracture deserts near the fault sand body should be the key area for further exploration.
