Special Publication 4 Barremian – Aptian stratigraphy and hydrocarbon habitat of the eastern Arabian Plate |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The two volumes are the fourth of the series of GeoArabia Special Publications. They are presented in 614 pages including more than 300 graphics and several large enclosures, which illustrate a vast array of new multi-disciplinary data and interpretations in high-resolution, color-matched designs. The graphics illustrate fossils, chemostratigraphic curves, 2-D and 3-D seismic, well logs, core, outcrop photos, maps and much more. Every paper starts with a figure showing its study area on a common late Early Aptian palaeogeographic basemap, followed by a stratigraphic figure comparing the local stratigraphy to that of the Arabian Plate synthesis; and in the GTS 2004 time scale. These two figures carry the reader's eyes effortlessly across all the papers. The major improvement of our understanding of the Barremian – Aptian carbonate strata can be directly applied by petroleum geoscientist and engineers, both at the reservoir and exploration scales. It sets an example for an integrated approach that is equally applicable to other stratigraphic intervals. The glacio-eustatic,
sea-level fluctuations recorded in the Arabian Plate are believed
to have a global expression which suggests the here presented conceptual
models can be extrapolated to other plates and basins.

OUT! Stratigraphic Palynology of the Paleozoic of Saudi Arabia |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Knowledge of the Palaeozoic biostratigraphy of the Arabian Peninsula,
situated close to the northern margin of Gondwana, was poorly known
until a joint special project was held by the Saudi Arabian Oil Company
(Saudi Aramco) and the Commission Internationale de Microflore du
Paléozoïque (CIMP) in 1990. Prior to that only a small
number of investigations had been published. Few efforts had been
made to exploit the stratigraphic potentials of the many undescribed
indigenous microfossils. The joint Saudi Aramco-CIMP project was designed
to reverse that situation. Comprehensive studies were carried out
on a range of microfossil groups throughout the Palaeozoic and results
were published in 1995, and in this book in 2000.Authors: Sa’id Al-Hajri, Mansour Al-Ruwaili, Geoffrey Clayton, John Filatoff, Alain Le Hérissé, Ken T. Higgs, Stanislas Loboziak, John E.A. Marshall, Stewart G. Molyneux, Bernard Owens, Florentin Paris, Jacques Verniers, Philippe Steemans, Michael H. Stephenson, and Charles H. Wellman. Editors: Sa’id Al-Hajri and Bernard Owens. 231 pages, 40 plates/62 illustrations. 2000 ISBN 99901-04-01-8 |

The Lexicon of Oman Subsurface Stratigraphy is a reference and practical,
operational guide for all those involved with the subsurface geology
of Oman. It will be equally at home surrounded by bags of wet ditch
cuttings samples and binocular microscopes in the mudlogging unit
of a drilling well or on the leather trimmed desk of a learned university
professor. It provides a systematic overview of the current state
of knowledge of the stratigraphy of Oman’s hydrocarbon basins.
The Lexicon will help the wellsite geologist pick his formation
tops, whilst for the production geologist or the explorationist
it provides the geological context to review, correlate and understand
their reservoir, seal or hydrocarbon system. Academics can use it
as the starting point for their investigation of any aspect of the
geology of Oman or indeed even the wider Arabian Plate. It provides
a top to bottom review of the geology with brief insights into some
of the major ongoing academic debates. Not all questions are answered,
or even attempted to be answered but the reader will find directions
to extensive reference material (there are 18 pages of references).
Illustrations include almost 150 well panels together with lithologies,
fossils and location maps. 
Barremian – Aptian stratigraphy and hydrocarbon habitat of
the eastern Arabian Plate comprises 18 papers covering one of the
most hydrocarbon-rich stratigraphic intervals in the Middle East.
They were written over a period of two and a half years by more
than 60 authors and co-authors from industry, academia, geological
surveys and research organisations, and reviewed by 34 experts and
the four editors (F.S.P. van Buchem, M.I. Al-Husseini, F. Maurer
and H.J. Droste).
The Stratigraphic Lexicon of Iraq was published by CNRS Editions,
France, in 1959. Today, this book continues to serve as one of the
foremost sources of information on the geology of Iraq and the Arabian
Peninsula. But over the years it has become difficult to find a
copy of this important book. It is for this reason that GeoArabia,
with the permission of CNRS Editions and the sponsorship of the
Ministry of Oil of Iraq and Chevron, has undertaken to reprint this
classic. 
Desert
studies help us predict possible future changes to the environment
and how to avoid damaging it. In this book, Ken Glennie takes us
on a journey back in time to when Arabia was a much greener place,
and he explains how global climate made it so barren.
The
Middle East Permian-Triassic Khuff carbonate reservoirs contain
about 15–20% of world’s non-associated gas reserves.
Below the Khuff carbonates, the Carboniferous-Permian Al Khlata,
Gharif and Unayzah clastic reservoirs contain billions of barrels
of oil, gas and condensate reserves. All these reservoirs range
across southern Arabia, a region of about one million square kilometres.
GeoArabia Special Publication 3 (SP3) presents a comprehensive
tectono-stratigraphic analysis of the formations that hold these
important hydrocarbon resources.
Arabian
Plate Sequence Stratigraphy is the first publication to present
a modern sequence stratigraphic review of the entire Arabian Plate
stratigraphic succession, extending from the Mediterranean to
the Gulf of Aden, and from the Red Sea to the Zagros suture. Biostratigraphic,
lithostratigraphic, sedimentological, geochemical, oil industry
and other data have been reviewed from the literature and re-presented
to illustrate the tectonic and stratigraphic evolution of the
plate. Key well logs, cross-sections, outcrop photos and other
data are presented in full colour to illustrate the location and
correlation of maximum flooding surfaces and unconformities. These
key stratal surfaces allow an assessment of the geometric relationship
between source rocks, reservoirs and seals.
The
Geo '94 conference and exhibition was held in Bahrain in April 25-27,
1994. The focus of this event was the petroleum geosciences of the
Middle East with emphasis on the Gulf Region, a region with 70%
of the world's petroleum reserves. These two
volumes publication
consists of 78 papers which were selected for their direct relevance
to the Middle East Geosciences.
