Palaeoenvironment reconstruction, diagenetic overprint and geochemistry of the Upper Cretaceous Sarvak Formation in the north of Dezful Embayment, south-west of Iran [PDF]
The Sarvak Formation, with a total thickness of 1566 m and major limestone lithology in the Ahvaz and Mansouri oil fields, is studied to determine its palaeoenvironment, diagenetic overprint and geochemistry.

Seismological evidence for crustal-scale thrusting in the Zagros mountain belt (Iran) [PDF]
International audienceCrustal receiver functions computed from the records of 45 temporary seismological stations installed on a 620-km long profile across central Zagros provide the first direct evidence for crustal thickening in this mountain belt. Due

Microfacies, Sedimentary Environment, Diagenesis and Petrophysical Evaluation of the Sarvak Formation in the framework of Sequence Stratigraphy in North-Dezful Embayment, southwestern Iran [PDF]
The subsurface section of the Sarvak Formation with a thickness of 455 m is located in the North-Dezful Embayment. The Sarvak Formation is underlain by the Ilam Formation with erosional discontinuity and is overlain probably by the Shale of the Kazhdumi ...

Machine learning algorithm for prediction of stuck pipe incidents using statistical data: case study in middle east oil fields [PDF]
One of the most troublesome issues in the drilling industry is stuck drill pipes. Drilling activities will be costly and time-consuming due to stuck pipe issues. As a result, predicting a stuck pipe can be more useful.

Biostratigraphy of Early Oligocene - Early Miocene Asmari Formation at the Southern Flank of Mish Anticline, Izeh Zone, SW Iran [PDF]
In this research, biostratigraphy related to the Asmari Formation at the southern flank of Mish anticline, Izeh Zone, is discussed. In the studied stratigraphic section, the Asmari Formation overlies the Pabdeh Formation and underlies Quaternary ...

Provenance evolution of Oligocene–Pliocene foreland deposits in the Dezful embayment to constrain Central Zagros exhumation history [PDF]
This paper presents a detailed provenance analysis of the 6.5 km thick Oligocene–Pliocene foreland succession in the north Dezful embayment in Zagros, Iran. Using petrography, geochemistry and palaeoflow analysis, we determined three provenance shifts during the exhumation of the Zagros orogen.
