the asmari formation is a thick carbonate sequence in zagros foreland basin. it was deposited during oligocene – early miocene ages. in order to interpret the depositional environment and sequence stratigraphy, firuzabad section were compared with 4 sections of asmari formation in the zagros basin. four different sub environments were identified in the asmari formation based on microfacies anal...

the asmari formation was deposited in the foreland basin of southwest iran (zagros basin). carbonate sequences of the asmari formation consist mainly of large benthic foraminifera along with other skeletal and non-skeletal components. three assemblage zones have been recognized by distribution of these large foraminifera in the study area that indicate oligocene age (rupelian-chattian). absence...

avo theory was introduced around 20 years ago. in recent years, this technique was become to a major tool in hydrocarbon sources exploration. by the help of this method with the suitable understanding from underground layers and knowing how to use this technology, quantitative specifications of reservoir can be recognized. avo analysis is a seismic technique that by using of pre-stack data, est...

lithological characteristics of the asmari formation in the burujen area are: pelagic foraminifera wackestone-packstone; bentic foraminifera echinid packstone; bentic foraminifera corallinaceapackstone; coral boundstone and echinid corallinacea packstone to grainstone; corallinacea boundstone; corallinacea bryozoa packstone; rniliolid echinid wackestone; and bioclastic wackestone. the examined ...

Objective: The Asmari Formation is characterised by alternation thick carbonate and marl sequence of the Oligocene- Miocene in the Zagros Basin, southwest of Iran that were deposited on the shelf of Eastern Paratethys. Methods: This formation is exposed at Tang-e-Khoshk in the Fars subcoastal zone with a thickness of 286 m comprising alternation of medium and thick to massive bedded carbonates,...

through a collection of cooperative agents called ants, the near optimal solution to the multi-reservoir operation problem may be effectively achieved employing ant colony optimization algorithms (acoas). the problem is approached by considering a finite operating horizon, classifying the possible releases from the reservoir(s) into pre-determined intervals, and projecting the problem on a grap...

In this study, four well-exposed outcrops of the Asmari Fm in the southeastern part of the Izeh Zone of the Zagros Mountains were measured and sampled. In this region, the Asmari Fm is Oligocene to Early Miocene in age as determined by large benthic foraminifera. Based on depositional geometries, biogenic contents and lateral and vertical variations of facies, three depositional models are prop...
