Abstract The Eocene lacustrine carbonates in the western Dongying Depression, Bohai Bay Basin were examined based on integrated analysis of 3D seismic data, cores, thin-sections, and geochemical testing. Seismic profiles and geomorphological mapping revealed a landmass-attached (semi-isolated) carbonate platform restricted by marginal syn-sedimentary faults and surrounded by three deep sags. 3D topographic analysis of the platform revealed six districts characterized by variable buried depths, topographic gradient, and fault combinations, including two flat-topped areas (PFW and SD; topographic gradient
