Abstract: This paper introduces the principle of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method and its application, and applies it to selection of oil shale target areas in China. During the process, the evaluation model and index system of oil shale area are established, the statistical weight of all indexes is identified, and the sum weight of each target area is acquired. Study indicates that the most important factor affecting oil shale area selection is geological parameters and resource conditions. And the key properties are oil saturation, burial depth and the amount of shale oil resources. By evaluating 11 oil shale target areas in China, it could be inferred that Heilongjiang Linkou oil shale is the best exploration area with the highest score, followed by Yanji Black Hill and Jilin Nongan.

Key words: AHP, target area selection
