Ming Li is a senior expert in seismic interpretation of the Research Institute of Petroleum Exploration & Development, PetroChina. He joined the research institute in 1996, and for the past 17 years he has been active in petroleum geology, seismic inversion, seismic modeling, and reservoir prediction research. He has been instrumental in developing new techniques in the areas of lithological reservoir prediction and well location optimization. His research interests focus on interpretation of integrated geophysics. He has played a key role in the exploration and breakthrough discoveries of dense sandstone and carbonate natural gas reservoirs of Tarim Basin, and volcanic natural gas reservoirs in Eastern China. He was awarded a national scientific and technological progress first prize, was a six-time winner of a provincial-level prize, and has published more than 10 books and 30 papers as first author or coauthor. He received his Ph.D. degree in mathematical geology from the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences in 1994. After completing his degree, he became a visiting scholar at Stanford University and completed his post-doctoral research in tectonic geology in 1996. He is a member of the American Association of Petroleum Geology (AAPG) and the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG). He is a committee member of the Petroleum Geology Professional Committee (CPS) and the Continental Dynamics Professional Committee (CGS). He also is a standing committee member of the Tectonic Geology and Geodynamics Professional Committee (GSC). 

Yadong Wu graduated from the China University of Geosciences (Beijing) in 2004, majoring in geophysics with a doctorate degree; Completed scientific studies at postdoctoral station of PetroChina Research Institute of Petroleum Exploration & Development in 2006. He successively served as Director of Overseas Exploration Planning Office、Chief Geologist and Deputy General Manager of CNPC International (KAM) Project Company、Deputy Manager of Exploration and Business Development Department in Kazakhstan Region Company of PetroChina、Second-Order Consultant of CNODC and Deputy Director of Production Operations Research Institution. Now is mainly engaged in overseas exploration research, overseas project company exploration and development production management and has been responsible for and participated in more than twenty scientific research projects for overseas exploration and development.

Jianrong Gao is Senior engineer at the Research Institute of Petroleum Exploration and Development, PetroChina. He is mainly engaged in structural and reservoir prediction research. In the aspect of structural research, the author puts forward the view of north-south subsection and east-west zoning for the complex thrust belt in the west of Ordos Basin in western China, and two sets of tectonic systems are proposed in the longitudinal, with "double wedgestructure" developed locally. In the aspect of reservoir prediction, a high-frequency compensation technology based on reservoir characteristic curve reconstruction is proposed for the characteristics of large lacustrine sedimentary basins in China, which are characterized by wide distribution of sand bodies and small thickness and difficult to be identified by seismic inversion. This technique has greatly improved the resolution of sand body prediction in the vertical direction. In the horizontal direction, it is faithful to the earthquake and has high reliability. This inversion method has wide applicability in lacustrine basins in China.
