cutting rocksamples ofLate Triassic Baluti Formation from two exploration wells(Atrush and Sheikhan wells), near Duhok city, Iraqi Kurdistan Region were analyzedto determinethe Palynofacies, then to evaluate sourcerock potentialityand the thermal maturity by pyrolysis parameters. Three Palynofacies were identified according to the amount of the eac...

The present study focuses on source rock evaluation of the Sargelu Formation by using core chips of rocks collected from well Atrush-2, Duhok, Kurdistan Region-Iraq. The Rock-Eval pyrolysis and vitrinite reflectance were executed. Subsequently, the selected parameters were used for source rock evaluation and 1-D Basin Modelling calibration. The upp...

This work reports on the source rock potential and 1D-basin modeling of the Kurra Chine Formation (Late Triassic) in Northern Iraq, northeast of Duhok province. Tectonically, the area is a part of the Zagros Fold and Thrust Belt, and within the High Folded Zone of Iraqi tectonic division. The Total Organic Carbon (TOC%) values for the shale interva...
Article
The studied samples were collected from the Palaeozoic outcrops, Khabour, Pirispiki, Kaista, Ora, Harur, and Chia Zairi formations in Nazdur Anticline, Amadia about 457 km due north of Baghdad, Iraq's capital city. Qualitative assessments of 29 samples were conducted by using textural microscopy in determining the percentage of amorphous organic ma...
Article
The Lower Miocene Euphrates and Jeribe Formations are among Iraq's potential reservoirs with significant proven reserves. Petrophysical and geochemical techniques were used to investigate these Formations in the recently discovered Tawke Oil Field. Investigation consisted of acquiring a considerable amount of data from eight wells including convent...
Thesis
Full-text available
Palynofacies and petroleum potential of Baluti Formation (Late Triassic) were studied from the sum of 37 samples, which have been taken from two exploration wells Atrush-1 and Sheikhan-1B, near Duhok city, Iraqi Kurdistan Region. These cutting samples were chosen to be studied for optical and analytical analysis. Baluti Formation at the current stu...

Question
this tool has to provide porosity number
Question
Ist possible to determine depositional environments from logs (especially GR) for carbonates?
Question
The two formations are strongly diachronous.
what does it mean?
Question
Currently we don't use term "Marly Limestone" anymore,during our cutting descriptions. we have changed to "Limestone Marly" as per argillaceous material contents.
for instance : instead of :Marly limestone, greish...etc we are describing :Limestone, Marly, greyish,..etc
is there any sedimentological configuration about this nomenclature i.e why almost all the Iraqi references are mentioning Marly Limestone?
Question
something explains cutting shapes and size with respect to borehole problems (cavings)
Question
I am working in a Rigsite, For example; I have to determine the Top of Shiranish Formation from the cuttings (17,1/2" drill bit). I am looking for Globotruncana.
is there any Rigsite procedure to pick microfossils?
