the study area is the rahmat anticline. this is located in fars province (sw fold simple zagros belt). the aims of this study are morphotectonic studies and structural analysis in several parts of area. for this purpose: 1) morphotectonic indices, drainage basin shape index (bs), mountain front sinuosity index (smf) and valley floor width – height ratio (vf) were measured by digital elevation m...

Masjed-i-Soleiman (MIS) is situated in the northern part of the Dezful embayment, which is in the Zagros fold–thrust belt with high seismic activities. MIS faces a shallow buried anticline, formed by the shallowest oilfield with a thick gas cap. The cap rocks of this oilfield are highly fractured, which has resulted in leakages from the gas cap. In this paper, we have used remote sensing techni...

Image logs of 13 wells in the Rag Sefid Anticline show two systems of fractures developed under two deformation phase in the Dezful Embayment. This deformation phases are folding resulted from Zagros NE contraction and reactivation of the basement fault rotated the fold axial trace within the Hendijan-Izeh fault zone. Folding phase comprises four sets of fractures, which include axial and cross...

the aim of this paper is to evaluate the effect of tectonic on the volume of alluvial fans around danehkhoshk anticline. to achieve the purpose of this study, at first, borders, sweep angle(s) and radius(r) of alluvial fans were obtained based on quick bird satellite image and then difference in the altitude between the apex and toe of alluvial fans (h) were calculated based on topographic map ...

Safeen anticline is one of the most complicated anticlines in Iraqi Kurdistan Region (IKR), with NW–SE trend. Structurally, truncated by different types faults; some them are deep-seated faults, which have subsurface form anticline. The includes two domes parasitic and synclines along both limbs. Moreover, hanging exist northeastwards southwestwards. Six possible deep seated transversal faults ...

This research deals with the geometry of Khalakan Anticline by using field data. The anticline is located in NE Iraq, within High Folded Zone Iraqi Western Zagros Fold – Thrust Belt where southwestern limb it represents boundary between Low and folded zones. age exposed rocks study area ranges from Cretaceous to Late Pliocene. Qamchuqa Kometan formations expose two limbs as oldest rocks, while ...
