Abstract: The Daqing lakes are located in the region with sub-humid continental monsoon climate. Through historical comparison of the environment before and after oil field exploitation in the area, the paper analyses the impact of oil field exploitation on the eco-environment of the lakes, including the impact of diversion works, drainage works, exploitation and utilization of groundwater, dropped crude oil and petrochemical wastewater on the lakes water body. The analys is shows that oil field exploitation caused serious pollution to soil in the lakes area and deterioration of the eco-environment. The impact became more evident with passage of time, and the intensity varied with areas, getting more serious from west to east, which meant that the eastern part of the lakes were influen ced much more seriously by the human activities. To improve the eco-environment of the Daqing lakes and make them sustainable utilization, the effective protection measures should be taken.
