importance of sediment storage has been expressed as being higher than that of water in floodwater spreading networks. to determine the contribution of each geological formation in sediment input of gachsaran floodwater spreading station after 12 years of flood spreading, sediment sampling was conducted in 16 points and 0-15 cm depth of the field. using dry sieve analysis, all samples were anal...

Paleoclimate was reconstructed by the clay mineral assemblages of shale units of Pabdeh (PaleoceneOligocene), Gurpi (Upper Cretaceous), Kazhdumi (Albian-Cenomanian) and Gadvan (Aptian-Neocomian) formations in the Bangestan anticline. To compare with clay minerals assemblages in these formations, selected samples also taken from available formations in drilled wells in Ahvaz, Marun, Karanj, and ...

The Gurpi Formation constitutes the source rock for petroleum in the oil-rich South Iranian Basin.Gurpi Formations is well distributed along Zagros Foreland Basin particularly in the north west of the Zagros (Lorestan Province). For Microbiostratigraphy and Paleobathymetric studies of the Gurpi Formation in the central part of Lorestan two stratigraphic sections including Sultan and Amiran sect...

Abstract The challenges behind this research were encountered while drilling into the Ilam, Mauddud, Gurpi, and Mishrif Formations, where severe instability-related issues observed across weaker formations above reservoir intervals. In paper, geomechanical parameters carried out to determine optimum mud weight windows safe deviation trajectories using parameters. We propose a workflow equivalen...

Grupi and Kashkan marl formations comprise a considerable part of Zagros region. These formations have a considerable erodibility and sedimentation potential because of their special geological and mineralogical characteristics. The objective of this study was to compare the erosion and sediment yield of Kashkan and Grupi formations in Merk watershed located in southeast Kermanshah, using the M...

Three well - known source rocks of the Zagros basin and the Persian Gulf are Mesozoic in age.The Jurassic Sargelu, Albian Kazhdumi and Neocomian-Coniacian Garau formations have charged the Cretaceous reservoirs of this area. The northwest part of the Persian Gulf is strongly influenced by two major N-S trending paleohighs (Hendijan- Bahregansar-Regesafid-Izeh and Kharge- Mish) and surrounding p...

the study of planktonic foraminifera of the ilam and gurpi formations at sarvestan area (se of shiraz) enables me to find the most standard biozones defined in mediterranean regions, especially tethysian domain. seven biozones were determined. biozones i (dicarinella concavata zone) and ii (dicarinella asymetrica zone) belong to the ilam formation and indicate the late coniacian-early santonian...
