Geochemical Study Of The Early Cretaceous Fahliyan Oil Reservoir In The Northwest Persian Gulf, Abbas Khaksar Manshad, Reza Sedighi Pashaki, Jagar A. Ali, Stefan Iglauer, M. Memariani, Majid Akbari, Alireza Keshavarz

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

Three crude oil samples from the Fahliyan Formation in ‘KG’ and ‘F’ fields in the northwest Persian Gulf, namely KG-031, F9A-3H and F15-3H for the geochemical study. In this study, the physicochemical properties, gas chromatography (GC, GC Mass) and (Detailed Hydrocarbon Analysis) DHA analyses for the collected Fahliyan oils were carried out. The API, Trace Element (Ni, V) and S% parameters indicated that the Fahliyan oil was generated from a source rock which deposited in reducing environment condition with a carbonate-shale compound lithology. Moreover, low pour point, higher S% and low viscosity parameters of “KG” sample confirmed the existence of …
