This article reviews and assesses the reservoir characteristics of several geologic
Formations in the northeast of the Arabian plate, from the Permian–Triassic to Oligo …

In structurally-controlled dolomitization systems, there is a general consensus that the
formation of dolostone-limestone transitions, termed here as “dolomitization fronts”, is …

Marine carbonate source rocks are ubiquitous worldwide and many of these can act as self-
sourced unconventional reservoirs. This work focuses on the Lower Turonian Abu Roash-F …

The transition between the Middle Atlas and the Sais Basin contains a sequence of alluvial
fans from the Plio-Quaternary period. These fans are mostly made up of debrites and are …

The present study investigates the microfacies and the effects of diagenetic processes on
the reservoir quality of limestones of the Fort Member, Jaisalmer Formation, Western …

Understanding the spatial distribution of petrophysical properties in carbonate reservoirs is
complicated due to their heterogeneity and sensitivity to diagenesis along with important …

Tight limestones with high amounts of microporosity will be the main targets of future
hydrocarbon exploration and production in Middle East. In this paper, microporosity …

Planar structures including stylolites, solution seams, dense streaks, bedding and cross-
bedding surfaces, and fractures of carbonate Early Triassic Kangan Formation were …

Ooid grainstone/packstone carbonate facies of the Dalan, Kangan, and Arab formations are
the main hydrocarbon reservoirs in the Persian Gulf. Based on detailed petrographic and …

Abstract The Lower Triassic Kangan Formation of the Persian Gulf Superbasin forms one of
the largest reservoirs in the South Pars/North Field, the world's largest gas field. The upper …
