detailed organic petrography analysis were conducted on drill core and cutting samples from the nahr umr (middle albian), burgan (lower albian) and ratawi (hauterivian) formations on the soroosh and nowrooz fields, nw part of the iranian sector of the persian gulf. the thermal maturity of the middle albian nahr umr formation appears to have reached the top of the oil window. the underlying burg...

This study focuses on the thermal maturity of Permian deposits from Zagros Basin, Southwest Iran, employing both optical methods (Thermal Alteration Index, Palynomorph Darkness Vitrinite Reflectance, UV Fluorescence) and geochemical analyses organic matter (Rock Eval Pyrolysis MicroRaman spectroscopy) applied to Faraghan Formation along two investigated Darreh Yas Kuh e surface sections. Furthe...

Sediments from Holes 994C, 995A, 997A, and 997B have been investigated for “combined” gases (adsorbed gas and that portion of free gas that has not escaped from the pore volume during core recovery and sample collection and storage), solventextractable organic compounds, and microscopically identifiable organic matter. The soluble materials mainly consist of polar compounds. The saturated hydro...
