Abstract
AbstractKangan and Upper Dalan formations are forming reservoir sequence of the South Pars field. Litology of the kangan formation is carbonate and (limestone and dolomite with anhydrite intervals), so digenetic processes were very active in this formation and these processes have changeed the reservoir quality. Importances of the digenetic process are including dissolution, calcite cements, dolomitization, anhydritization, physical and chemical compaction and fracturing.
Highlights
Diversity of reservoir quality in shallow carbonate is usual (Lucia, 2007; Moore, 2001)
This paper focuses on the Kangan formation in the Persian gulf in Iran
These formations are usually subdivid into the 4reservoires zone; the Upper Dalan subdivide into the K4, K3reservoirs and Kangan subdivide into the K2 and K1reservoirs (Insalaco et al, 2006)
Summary
Diversity of reservoir quality in shallow carbonate is usual (Lucia, 2007; Moore, 2001). Diversity reflects the effect of sedimentary environment process and diagenetical process. This paper focuses on the Kangan formation in the Persian gulf in Iran (figure 1). Upper Dalan (upper Permian) and Kangan (lower Triassic) formations (equivalent to the upper khuff) are main gas reservoir section in Middle East region that include about 18% of world gas reserve. These formations are usually subdivid into the 4reservoires zone; the Upper Dalan subdivide into the K4, K3reservoirs and Kangan subdivide into the K2 and K1reservoirs (Insalaco et al, 2006)
