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 Albian- Cenomanian (Kazhdumi Formation) sediments from northeast of Shiraz, Zagros Basin, represents a carbonate sedimentary succession and contain diverse gastropods and bivalves. Detailed studies on 80 samples of invertebrate macrofauna on two stratigraphic sections led to recognized 2 species and 5 genera of gastropods and 7 species and 13 genera of bivalves assemblages. The abscence of ...

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...

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...

Abstract Early Cretaceous and Jurassic sequences in the southwestern Iran host some of largest hydrocarbon reservoirs globe. This study is aimed at evaluating maturity fluids, migration paths, characteristics Pabdeh, Kazhdumi, Garu Sargelu source rocks this region. For purpose, 27 samples Pabdeh Kazhdumi Formations from wells northern part Dezful Embayment were chemically evaluated by Rock–Eval...

three well - known source rocks of the zagros basin and the persian gulf are mesozoic in age.the jurassic sargelu, albian kazhdumi and neocomian-coniacian garau formations have charged the cretaceous reservoirs of this area. the northwest part of the persian gulf is strongly influenced by two major n-s trending paleohighs (hendijan- bahregansar-regesafid-izeh and kharge- mish) and surrounding p...

The Khaviz oil field located in Dezful embayment is one of Iran’s southwest oil fields. In this study, a total of 28 cutting samples from Kazhdumi formation (well No. KZ1, Khaviz oil field) were subject to geochemical investigation using Rock-Eval pyrolysis for the first time. The results of pyrolysis indicated that Kazhdumi source rock has significant hydrocarbon production potentiality and al...

in order to study of biostratigraphy and age dating of kazhdumi formation, based on planktonic foraminifera and correlation of identified biozones with global standard biozones, this formation at tang-e-maghar have been studied. in this study 73 samples of kazhdumi formation, with 270 meter thickness, have been collected. the main lithological units at the studied section consist of the black b...

Fluid invasion from water-based drilling mud (WBDM) into the shale formations causes swelling, high pressure zone near the wellbore wall, and eventually wellbore instability problems during drilling operations. For the stability of the wellbore, physical plugging of nanoscale pore throats could be considered as a logical approach toward avoiding the fluid invasion into the shale formation. This...
