Abstract: The fluctuations in sizes of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres lead to the occurrence of plate movements. The plate tectonics comprise moving tectonics, collision tectonics and within plate tectonics. The hydrocarbon tends to be generated in the plate frontal accretionary zones and hosted in the basins along the collision uplift zones. The shift, collision and within plate intraformational gliding of plates may result in the occurrence of earthquakes. Two seismic zones may be recognized in China:eastern and western seismic zones.
