Abstract

The Persian Gulf among the areas with the greatest potential for exploration and development of hydrocarbon reservoirs in the word. The GADVAN FORMATION (Barremian to Early Aptian) is one of the formations with good SOURCE ROCK potential in this region. In this article, the hydrocarbon potential of the GADVAN FORMATION is investigated in the Iranian sector of the Persian Gulf. For this purpose, a total of 87 samples was taken from the GADVAN FORMATION in the 18 oil fields are analyzed by Rock-Eval PYROLYSIS. The thickness of the GADVAN FORMATION ranges from 35 to 354 meters. The Formation reaches a thickness of 354 m in the southern part of the study area and also in the Strait of the Hormuz. The results of Rock Eval PYROLYSIS indicate that the GADVAN FORMATION was deposited in a marine environment and its organic matter is mainly composed of kerogen III and II/III. The TOC ranges from 0.26 to 2.16 wt. % and the average TOC content of the GADVAN FORMATION is 0.97 wt. %. TOC content increases toward the west of the Persian Gulf. Tmax values range from 410 to 458°C, and in 86% of the samples the Tmax is less than 435oC.Moreover, a burial history and THERMAL MATURITY investigation were performed on the GADVAN FORMATION in 3 oil fields to assess its THERMAL MATURITY and evolution through time. The results confirm the Rock Eval results and indicate that the Barremian to Early Aptian-aged GADVAN FORMATION is currently immature in the center part of the Persian Gulf and reached to the early range of maturity for oil generation in the margin.
