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 ...

The the Middle Cretaceous-Lower Miocene petroleum system of the Kupal oil field, located in the Dezful Embayment has been studied. The Kazhdumi and Pabdeh are main source rocks, the Sarvak, Ilam and Asmari formations are reservoir and the Gachsaran formation is the seal rock. According to geochemical analysis the Kazhdumi and Pabdeh contributed to oil production and feeding the Asmari and Bange...

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,...

for this study, asmari (oligo-miocene) and bangestan (cretaceous) reservoir oils from themarun oilfield were studied geochemically. gas chromatograms and stable isotopes of carbon and sulfur indifferent oil fractions were studied. normal alkanes nc15+ are as high as 93% with a saturate percentage up to53.9% which reveal a high maturity of asmari and bangestan reservoir paraffinic oils. carbon p...

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...

This study reconsiders the previous biostratigraphic settings for Asmari Formation in eastern Zagros Basin (Fars Basin). The results imply that Rupelian is identified by total range zone of Nummulites species (N. vascus, N. fichteli, intermedius). occurrence Archaias kirkukensis, A. hensoni, and asmaricus before disappearance current even co-occurrence hensoni with mentioned prevents use recent...
