physical and chemical properties of  crude oil, including viscosity and api gravity, are commonly inherited  from the  early organic matter, environmental conditions in which they were deposited and depth of burial of the source beds. api gravity increases in deeper burial due to higher thermal maturation of organic matter in the source rocks and consequently, generation of lighter saturated hy...

a total 7 species and 13 genera of marine gastropod assemblages are reported for the first time from the varehh zard section (asmari formation), north of pole dokhtar, lorestan basin. the section under study, the asmari formation, lies between the shahbazam formation at the base and gachsaran formation at the top. according to the distribution of index foraminifera, the asmari formation is earl...

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 exami...

In this research, biostratigraphy related to the carbonate succession of the Shahbazan Formation at the southeastern flank of Chenar anticline, Lurestan Basin, is discussed. A study of large benthic foraminifera from the 294 mthick Shahbazan Formation led to the identification of two Middle Eocene biozones: Somalina sp. Zone, Nummulites-Alveolina Assemblage Zone. The age of the Shahbazan Format...

Abstract The Asmari reservoir in Haftkel field is one of the most prolific naturally fractured reservoirs Zagros folded zone southwest Iran. primary production was commenced 1928 and continued until 1976 with a plateau rate 200,000 bbl/day for several years. There an initial gas cap on oil column. Gas injection June so far, 28% place have been recovered. As far as we concerned, fracture network...

Many watermarking techniques have been used for copyright protection of digital images. A color image watermarking technique which is robust and resilient to many types of attack is proposed. This technique involves three stages, viz: preprocessing, embedding and extraction. RGB image is converted to YCbCr to ensure the best imperceptibility and robustness. In spatial domain, the best quadrant ...

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...

The Oligo-miocene Asmari formation is one of the most important hydrocarbon reservoirs in the southwest of Iran. In order to evaluate reservoir quality and the factors controlling reservoir properties, detailed geological and petrophysical studies were carried out on 242 m of core samples from Asmari reservoir. This study is a part of a larger project that examines depositional history and rese...
