Structural pattern of the Zagros fold-and-thrust belt in the Dezful Embayment (SW Iran)
The structural style of the southeastern region of the Dezful Embayment (Zagros fold-and-thrust belt) was defined through the interpretation of satellite images, field surveys, well stratigraphy, and magneto-telluric and seismic profiles. The compressional setting of the area derives from the last phases of Cenozoic continental collision between the ...

Determination of the heterogeneity index based on petrophysical and image logs in the Sarvak reservoir of an oilfield located in the Dezful Embayment [PDF]
In this study, the heterogeneity of the Sarvak reservoir in an oil field located in the Dezful Embayment was studied. The occurrence of heterogeneity is primarily attributed to various geological factors in carbonate formations, including the Sarvak ...

Reservoir quality drivers in the Oligo-Miocene Asmari Formation, Dezful Embayment, Iran: Facies, diagenesis, and tectonic controls [PDF]
The Oligo-Miocene Asmari Formation in the Shadegan Oil Field, located in the Dezful Embayment in southwestern Iran, is renowned for its complex geological characteristics in the Middle East. This study systematically investigates the drivers of reservoir quality, emphasizing the interplay between geological settings, depositional environments and ...

Structural relationship between subsurface oil fields in the North Dezful Embayment: Qaleh Nar, Lower and Upper Balarud Anticlines (central Zagros, Iran) [PDF]
How subsurface anticlines (oil fields) link structurally with faults is of great relevance in the exploration and development of oil fields. In this context, we investigate the geometric relation between lower Balarud (LBR), upper Balarud (UBR) and Qaleh
