AB  - The deep shale gas ($\geq 3500$ m) in the Z205 well area is a critical exploration and development target in the Sichuan Basin. The shale gas reservoirs of the Upper Ordovician Wufeng Formation -- Lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation (Long 1$_1$ submember) in this area are characterized by deep burial and significant vertical and lateral heterogeneity. The Long 1$_1$ submember is subdivided into the Wufeng Formation, Long 1$_1^1$, Long 1$_1^2$, Long 1$_1^3$, and Long 1$_1^4$. This study conducts a detailed stratigraphic comparison based on integrated logging, core analysis, and analytical test data from the well area, clarifying the longitudinal and lateral distribution patterns of the reservoirs. Utilizing the TOPSIS algorithm, a reservoir classification and evaluation model integrating subjective weights and objective analysis is established. Reservoirs are classified as Class I when $C_i \geq 0.6$, Class II when $0.4 \leq C_i < 0.6$, Class III when $0.2 \leq C_i < 0.4$, and non-reservoir when $C_i < 0.2$. Results indicate significant directional variations in the thickness of each sub-layer within the Wufeng-Long 1$_1$ submember. The main reservoir intervals, Long 1$_1^1$ to Long 1$_1^3$, exhibit an overall thickening trend from north to south and west to east. At least three stable, laterally extensive Class I continuous reservoir units are identified vertically. The No. 1 Class I reservoir is primarily distributed from Long 1$_1^1$ to Long 1$_1^3$ and the basal part of Long 1$_1^4$, being most developed in the central synclinal areas (Huliongchang, Gaoshikuan, and northern Panlongchang Synclines). The No. 2 and No. 3 Class I reservoirs are mainly located within the middle-upper sections of Long 1$_1^4$. They are most developed within the Gaoshikuan Syncline, thinning towards the southern and northern margins. The research outcomes provide significant guidance and reference value for the subsequent exploration, development, and related research of shale gas in the Z205 well area and analogous regions.
