Abstract: Heavy oil is characterized by its large viscosity, large-scale continuous accumulation, strong reservoir heterogeneity,and difficult for exploration etc. It is impossible to reveal the difference of heavy oil enrichment in 3D space, and to predict the distribution of the "sweet spots" by using the traditional volumetric method. Based on the geographic information technology,the spatial interpolation method is to take play as a basic evaluation unit to demarcate the distribution area of each unit so as to count and analyze the spatial distribution patterns of the four key parameters incl. reservoir thickness, oil saturation, porosity, and the recovery rate; and then based on actual situation to further select suitable interpolation methods (inverse distance weighted interpolation, Kriging interpolation method etc.), to achieve spatial superposition calculation of the grid maps of the key parameters, and finally to calculate the abundance map of heavy oil of each reservoir formation. This method can quantitatively characterize the spatial distribution of heavy oil resources, and confirm the "sweet spots" of heavy oil. We applied this method to evaluate the potential of heavy oil in the Zagros fold belt in Middle East. According to the evaluation results, the total recoverable heavy oil resources of the four plays (Triassic-Jurassic Butmah, Jurassic, Cretaceous and Tertiary) reaches about 14×109 t. Among them, the Cretaceous play is the favorable exploration target in the future with 8.5×109 t of recoverable heavy oil resources. According to an initial prediction, the "sweet spot" is located at the southwest of the basin.

Key words: heavy oil, resource assessment methodologies, play, interpolation, Zagros fold belt, unconventional
