Abstract: In view of the influence of salinized environment on organic carbon prediction of source rocks in western Qaidam Basin, the optimized ΔlgR method, multiple regression method and BR-BP neural network method were used to simulate organic carbon content according to salinity changes, and the differences of organic carbon prediction results of the three models were discussed. The results show that: The prediction effect of multiple regression model is general.The accuracy of the optimized ΔlgR model is higher than that of the multiple regression model, but its universality is general.The BR-BP neural network model has different performance in high salinity and medium-low salinity areas, but the prediction effect is better. Therefore, we propose applying the neural network model to predict in medium-low salinity areas, and conducting comprehensive calculation by reasonably adjusting the parameters of the neural network model and combining with the ΔlgR model in high salinity areas. The research results can improve the accuracy of source rock identification and guide accurate source rock evaluation in the basin.
