方少仙,江苏镇江人,1955年南京大学地质系毕业。先在北京石油学院任教,1960年到西南石油学院执教至今,现为西南石油学院石油天然气勘探系沉积地质学教授,并担任油气藏工程实验室(国家重点实验室)油气藏储层地质课题组负责人。方少仙不仅是一位大学教授,也是一位重事业、重学问的女科技专家。她长期从事沉积岩、岩相古地理和油气储层地质学的研究工作,做了许多开创性的工作。早在七十年代中期,她即引进“浊流沉积”和“碳酸盐成岩作用”的理论,填补了我国在碳酸盐岩研究上的空白。此后她又将这一理论应用于黔南中三叠统平几关群的研究,确定了这一地层为深海相陆源碎屑浊积岩,属非扇相浊流沉积体 Fang Shaoxian, a man from Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province, graduated from the Department of Geology, Nanjing University in 1955. He first taught at Beijing Petroleum Institute and taught at Southwest Petroleum Institute in 1960. Now he is a professor of sedimentary geology at the Department of Petroleum Exploration and Production, Southwest Petroleum Institute, and holds the post of Reservoir Geology in Reservoir Engineering Laboratory (State Key Laboratory) principal. Fang Shaoxian is not only a university professor, but also a heavy cause, seriously ill female science and technology experts. She has long been engaged in sedimentary rock, lithofacies paleogeography and oil and gas reservoir geology research work done a lot of groundbreaking work. As early as the mid-1970s, she introduced the theory of “turbidity flow sedimentation” and “carbonate diagenesis”, which filled the blank of carbonate research in our country. Later, she applied this theory to the study of Pingsuan Guanzhong in the middle Triassic of Qiannan, and determined that this formation is turbidite of terrigenous marine terrigenous origin and belongs to a non-fan-phase turbidite sedimentary body
