Abstract The Coniacian-Santonian (CS) was a time of differentiation in marine
sedimentation, characterized by organic carbon (OC)-rich black shales and carbonates …

Upper Cretaceous carbonate rocks of the Sarvak Formation are among the most important
hydrocarbon reservoirs of the Middle East. This paper summarizes the depositional history …

As the second important oil reservoir of Iran, shallow-marine carbonates of the Sarvak
Formation were deposited in a tectonically active setting, under a warm and humid …

Abstract The Cenomanian–Santonian (C–S) carbonate successions include valuable
petroleum reservoirs in the Zagros Basin. They also provide important information on the …

This study presents an integrated reservoir heterogeneity analysis of an Iranian carbonate
oil reservoir (Sarvak Formation) in the Zagros region. Both static and dynamic aspects of …

This study focuses on the origins, scale of occurrence, and predictability of reservoir
heterogeneities of the carbonates of the Upper Cretaceous Sarvak Formation in five oilfields …

The mutual interplays between plate tectonic processes, orogenesis and continental uplift,
high-flux magmatism, and high sedimentation rates can affect the geochemical signatures …

This study addresses the timing implications of chemical stratigraphy and
chronostratigraphic correlation of unconformity-related shallow water (neritic) carbonate rock …

New high-resolution biostratigraphy and facies analyses indicate that a Coniacian-
Santonian homoclinal carbonate ramp (Ilam Fm.) developed on the subaerially exposed mid …

This paper focuses on the geochemical composition and isotope geochemistry of brines in
the Cenomanian–Turonian carbonate Mishrif reservoir of southern Iraq. Main dissolved …
