Petroleum system analysis of the Paleozoic series in the Fars Platform of Iran

The Paleozoic petroleum system of the Fars Platform of Iran is analyzed using ID petroleum system models of 17 deep wells drilled in the study area.The main aim was to investigate the hitherto undocumented influence of salt tectonics on the essential elements and processes of this petroleum system.For the first time,a better understanding about the geohistory evolution of this prolific petroleum system is provided over the Fars Platform.Modeling results indicate that hydrocarbon generation from the Silurian source rock was associated with salt withdrawal synclines.Salt tectonics further controlled the entrapment styles and the geometric distribution of carrier/reservoir rocks and their overlying evaporitic seals.Our findings provide new insights for identifying the remaining exploration potential in the Paleozoic petroleum system of the Fars Platform and suggest that the role of salt tectonics should be considered in the future basin and petroleum system modeling studies in this area.
