understanding the performance and role of each formation in a petroleum play is crucial for the efficient and precise exploration and exploitation of trapped hydrocarbons in a sedimentary basin. the lorestan basin is one of the most important hydrocarbon basins of iran, and it includes various oil-prone potential source rocks and reservoir rocks. previous geochemical studies of the basin were n...

in this study biostratigraphy of the upper cretaceous deposits (gurpi formation) in sepidan section located in the interior fars basin (sw iran) was studied. the gurpi formation in this section consists of 360 m lime shale, argillaceous limestone and shale laid continuously on the ilam formation and with a paraconformity under the pabdeh formation. nine genera and 27 species of planktonic foram...

In this study biostratigraphy of the Upper Cretaceous deposits (Gurpi Formation) in Sepidan section located in the Interior Fars basin (SW Iran) was studied. The Gurpi Formation in this section consists of 360 m lime shale, argillaceous limestone and shale laid continuously on the Ilam Formation and with a paraconformity under the Pabdeh Formation. Nine genera and 27 species of planktonic foram...

Dezful embayment contains several potential source rocks deposited in tectonically active environments. Existence of various source rocks with different geological ages makes this area one of the most prolific regions throughout the Middle East. The Pabdeh Formation (Lower Paleocene-Eocene), the Gurpi Formation (Santonian-Masstrichtian), the Kazhdumi Formation (Albian) and the Gadvan Formation ...

nesar anticline is located in west of country and in north of kermanshah province. pattern of drainage network at each district is under the effect of various factors which has intensive anomaly in nesar anticline in spite of its low area and this in turn reflects different lithology, tectonic effects and slope changes in anticline. the goal of this research is the recognition of influential fa...

Paleocene and  Lower Eocene deposits in SW Iran are known as Pabdeh formation.Pabdeh formation is one of the most important lithostratigraphy unit as source rock has been deposited in Zagros basin over an extremely long period in time. The area under research is the Ghachsaran 55 subsurface Section located  from the Ghachsaran oil field in Dezful embeyment in zagros fold zone. The Lower boundry...

The Izeh fault zone is a transverse fault zone with dextral strike slip (and some reverse component) in the Zagros Mountains (Iran). It causes some structural deformations. This fault zone is acting as eastern boundary of Dezful Embayment and forms subsidence of the embayment. The fault has been recognized using remote sensing techniques in conjunction with surface and subsurface analyses. The ...
