Sarvak formation, with the middle cretaceous (Cenomanian) age, is one of the stratigraphic units of the Bangestan group in the southern Iran. The carbonate rocks of this formation form the reservoir rock in the study field. Generally, Sarvak formation is subdivided into three members including Mishrif, Khatiyah, and Maddud in the Persian Gulf, and the average thickness of the reservoir unit (i....

Dezful embayment contains several potential source rocks deposited in tectonically active environments. Existence of various source rocks with different geological ages makes this area one of the most prolific regions throughout the Middle East. The Pabdeh Formation (Lower Paleocene-Eocene), the Gurpi Formation (Santonian-Masstrichtian), the Kazhdumi Formation (Albian) and the Gadvan Formation ...

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...

the kazhdumi formation of the bangestan group is a well-known and important source rock in most oil-fields in the zagros basin. in order to examine productivity of this formation in southwestern iran, and to correlate petrographical and palynological data with geochemical properties, one of the best outcrops of this formation, located in tange-maghar 45 km northwest of behbahan city, was sample...

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...

Background: Iran is located in the seventh rank in terms of CO2 emissions resulting from the fuel combustion in the world. Gas compressor booster stations, due to the several sources of contaminants, are causing the release of large amounts of CO2 and CH4, which will cause climate change therefore, estimating the emissions of the gases from oil and gas, different processing units are necessary....

introduction the iran has vast areas of karst landforms due to the relatively high carbonaceous rocks deposited during different geologic eras. karst landforms are noteworthy for investigation from many aspects. the primary importance of these regions is the considerable amount of underground water stored in karst formations. these reserves are favorable, both in quality and quantity, as natura...

since hydrocarbon sources have an important role in development of industry and technology, exploration of them has been lionized by human. the seismic reflection method is one of the most applicable investigative methods to identify the hydrocarbon reservoirs, but in some cases this method does not work well because of geology conditions and wave attenuation in depth. thus, some exploration me...
