[ 1 ] - Investigation of folding lateral growth using study of erosional processes and geomorphological and hydrogeological indices (Case study: Khaviz oilfield)

Recognition of growth pattern and folding mechanism in the fold-thrust belts with hydrocarbon resources is important in exploration and development planning of oilfields. As the processes of tectonics, erosion, and geomorphology impact on each other, therefore, the investigation of a process, one can obtain information about the other process. In this research the tectonic process of transverse...

[ 2 ] - Determination of the in-situ stresses direction in the Sarvak formation in one of the West Iranian oil fields

The image logs interpretation from two wells in a fold hosting a west Iranian oil field located in the Dezful Embayment, SW Iran reveal the occurrence of two major systems of natural fractures. In the central part of the fold, the fold-related fractures include two sets of fractures trending N53°E and N34°E. In the eastern and also curved part of the fold, the strike of open fractures varies fr...
