Evaluation of the source rock potential of the Unyazah Formation (late Carboniferous-Early Permian) in Dukhan Field, Qatar
(
Taylor & Francis (Routledge)
, 2019 , Article)
Twenty samples were collected from the Unayzah Formation in three wells from Dukhan Field, Qatar. Many samples were of poor quality due to the low TOC content containing gas prone-kerogen type III and IV. The Rock-Eval ...
Contribution of the Zubair source rocks to the generation and expulsion of oil to the reservoirs of the Mesopotamian Basin, Southern Iraq
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2019 , Article)
The huge quantities of oil and gas reserved in the fields of southern Iraq must be matched by enough source rocks that can generate and expel equivalent amounts of hydrocarbons. This study is an attempt to evaluate the ...
Geochemical investigation of Yamama crude oils and their inferred source rocks in the Mesopotamian Basin, Southern Iraq
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2019 , Article)
Ten oil samples from the Yamama reservoirs and ten extracts of purported source rocks from sixteen wells in the Mesopotamian Basin, Southern Iraq have been analyzed using GC, GC/MS and Stable Carbon Isotope. Yamama oils ...
Impact of the demise mechanisms of the Cretaceous rudist buildups in the Arabian Plate on their reservoir characteristics
(
Springer Berlin Heidelberg
, 2017 , Article)
Rudist buildups form the major oil-producing reservoirs in the Cretaceous carbonate strata of the Arabian Plate. They are the main components of the Shuaiba and Mishrif and to lesser extent, the Natih, Mauddud, Simsima, ...
Mangrove-bearing limestone from the Eocene Dammam Formation, Arabian Gulf: Implications for the mangrove dispersal controversy
(
springer link
, 2012 , Article)
Fossil mangrove remains are found within the shallow carbonate strata of the Middle Eocene Dammam Formation of the Arabian Gulf. This formation is of wide distribution across most eastern parts of the Arabian Platform and ...
Lithology, mineral assemblages and microbial fingerprints of the evaporite-carbonate sediments of the coastal sabkha of Abu Dhabi and their extraterrestrial implications
(
cambridge university press
, 2010 , Article)
Deep-core and surface samples collected from the coastal sabkha of Abu Dhabi were subjected to a multi-proxy study, including petrographic, geochemical and spectroscopic analyses. The sediments studied are composed of ...
Seismic detection of a sinkhole using spectral-based analysis
(
Society of Exploration Geophysicists
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Seismic data recorded during a survey in the vicinity of a sinkhole revealed distinct resonances at 70 Hz. Frequency domain data inversion based on exact modeling produced effective elastic parameters for the location over ...
