Geothermal resource is very rich in Linpan. Neogene Guantao formation is geothermal deposit and Neogene Minghuazhen formation and Quaternary Pinyuan formation are geothermal covers. Thermal source mainly comes from normal heat current in deep part of crust. 2 thermal wells have been drilled at present, and have an evident efficacy in exploration and utilization. Geothermal exploration should avoid oil and gas strata, and oil exploration should prevent geothermal reservoir bed from pollution.

黄河三角洲地区油气资源十分丰富,开发潜力巨大.在油气资源开采过程中也存在一些环境地质问题,诸如落地油对水土污染严重、采油诱发的地面沉降加剧、围海造陆使海岸带生态环境恶化及黄河流路不稳对油田建设的影响等.该文分析了这些问题的产生原因及发展趋势,从可持续发展的角度,提出了对策建议.
