Abstract
AAPG FOUNDATION PRATT CONFERENCE: PETROLEUM PROVINCES,
21st CENTURY
January 12-15, 2000
San Diego, California
Middle Jurassic to Lower Berriasian and Albian source rocks have charged stacked reservoirs comprising Aptian/Albian sandstones, and diverse platform carbonates of Valanginian, Cenomanian to Early Turonian, Campanian, Late Eocene to Oligocene, and Early to Mid-Miocene age. Major structural growth occurred in Mid- to Late Cretaceous and Late Miocene to Pleistocene time. Jurassic source rocks have charged time equivalent platform margin carbonates and fractured basinal limestones sealed by Upper Jurassic evaporites in the Gotnia Basin. Middle to Upper Triassic limestones have sourced Triassic platform carbonates sealed by anhydrites and tight limestones. Silurian oil source rocks in Western Iraq may have charged Lower Palaeozoic and Upper Carboniferous/Lower Permian sandstones, and Upper Permian platform carbonates and shoreline sandstones.
