Abstract：Fractal and fractal-dimension techniques are good tools for researching into complicated problems. People have paid more attention to them. But some people misuse them because they have no enough understanding of the new mathematical tools. For example,somebody uses them to cope with a micro-phenomenon(inhomo-geneous problem)in developing a complicated hydrocarbon reservoir;and some peo-ple use fractal dimension to find hydrocarbon accumulation and to predict densefracture zone. They even use fractal technique to improve seismic resolution. I think that we should reconsider these problems in order to avoid improper use of the tech-niques. A fractal set depends on the characteristic of an analysed object. Not any complicated object has fractal character. Without understanding this point,people will fall into trouble.
