Source Rock evaluation, Modelling, Maturation, and Reservoir characterization of the Block 18 oilfields, Sab’atayn Basin, Yemen
A total of 183 core and cutting samples from seven exploratory wells were selected to be analyzed by Rock-Eval pyrolysis. These cores have been drilled through the Lam and Meem Members of the Madbi Formation and contain the major source rocks of Yemen´s sedimentary basins. Contents of total organic carbon were measured and Rock-Eval pyrolysis was performed to evaluate the hydrocarbon potential ...
متن کاملSource Rock Evaluation of the Cenomanian Middle Sarvak (Ahmadi) Formation in the Iranian Sector of the Persian Gulf
The middle Sarvak formation (Cenomanian) is one of the stratigraphic units of the Bangestan group in the south of Iran. This formation is stratigraphically equivalent to the Ahmadi member of Kuwait and Iraq. There is geochemical evidence that indicates this unit has a high level of organic richness and can be a possible source rock in various locations. This study focuses on the organic geochem...
متن کاملOrganic Geochemical Evaluation of Madbi Source Rock, Al-Jawf Basin, NE Central Yemen
Organic geochemical evaluation of the Madbi Formation as the main source rock of the Al-Jawf Basin, NE Central Yemen was the main objective of this study. The organic geochemical methods used in the study include: rock-eval pyrolysis, total organic carbon, and optical measurements as the vitrinite reflectance and thermal alteration index. In this study, 67 well core and side-well core samples o...
متن کاملPalynostratigraphy, Palaeogeography and Source Rock Evaluation of the Nayband Formation at the Parvadeh area, Central Iran, Iran
The Nayband Formation was measured and sampled in Parvadeh area, southern Tabas city. In this area, this formation has a thickness of 1410 m, dividing into four members, namely Gelkan, Bidestan, Howz-e-sheikh and Howz-e-khan. A total 573 samples were treated for Palynological analysis, and only 120 samples were productive. A total of 57 miospore taxa and 11 plant macrofossil were encountered. B...
متن کاملPetroleum Source Rock Logging
Regional distributions of organic content are an important aid in developing basin evolution and hydrocarbon generation models. An approach to evaluate hydrocarbon source rocks using resistivity, sonic, density, neutron and natural gamma ray logs is developed. Organic matter, as a constituent in sedimentary rocks, has a relatively low density, slow velocity, and is high in hydrogen content. Sou...
