Neogene sediments and modern depositional environments of the Zagros foreland basin system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A sedimentological investigation of the Neogene deposits of the Zagros foreland basin in SW Iran reveals a continuous and largely gradational passage from supratidal and sabkha sediments at the base (represented by the Gachsaran Formation) to carbonates ...

From Site Selection to Characterization: Assessment of Potential Reservoirs in the Lurestan Basin of Iran for Carbon Sequestration

open access: yesGreenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 319-332, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The increasing global focus on carbon sequestration underscores the need for comprehensive CO2 storage atlases, extending beyond Europe and America to other countries that are significant contributors to carbon dioxide emissions. This article addresses this imperative by examining the CO2 storage potential in the Lurestan area of Iran, with a ...

Landscape maturity, fold growth sequence and structural style in the Kirkuk Embayment of the Zagros, northern Iraq [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Kirkuk Embayment is located in the southwest of the Zagros fold-and-thrust belt of Iraq. Like fold-and-thrust belts worldwide, the Zagros is conventionally understood to have grown sequentially towards the foreland.

Floods and New Housing Design Theory to Sustain and Reduce Hazards (A Scientific Strategy)

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Vulnerability is a key concept in flood hazard studies, especially concerning the damage to people, infrastructure, and housing. This article focuses on reducing housing vulnerability not only by managing floods at their source but also by introducing flood‐adaptive housing design, such as flood chambers and spatial planning that avoids high‐risk zones.

Multidetachment analogue models of fold reactivation in transpression : the NW Persian Gulf [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Two deformation events have been documented in the NW Persian Gulf during the Late Cretaceous and the Late Cenozoic. The most distinctive feature in this part of the Persian Gulf is the reactivation of the Late Cretaceous NNE-SSW Arabian trending folds ...

STRUCTURAL STYLE AND TIMING OF NW‐SE TRENDING ZAGROS FOLDS IN SW IRAN: INTERACTION WITH NORTH‐SOUTH TRENDING ARABIAN FOLDS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PETROLEUM GEOLOGY

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 47, Issue 1, Page 3-73, January 2024.
The Zagros foldbelt – foreland system in SW Iran is a prolific hydrocarbon province with known reserves of more than 90 billion brl of oil and 800 TCF of natural gas. Establishing the structural style of folding in the Zagros area presents a major challenge due both to the geographical extent of the foldbelt, which is some 1600 km long in total, and ...

The Cretaceous Source Rocks in the Zagros Foothills of Iran Les roches mères Crétacé de l'avant-pays du Zagros en Iran : un exemple de bassin intracratonique de grande dimension

open access: yesOil & Gas Science and Technology, 2006
Almost all the oil production of Iran is concentrated in a small portion of the Zagros orogenic belt, the 40,000 Sq km Dezful Embayment of the Khuzestan province. The accumulation of oil results from a Cretaceous/Tertiary petroleum complex which includes
