Geochemical assessment of upper Cretaceous crude oils from the Iranian part of the Persian Gulf Basin: Implications for thermal maturity, potential source rocks, and depositional setting

The Upper Cretaceous carbonate successions of the Sarvak Formation host giant oil reservoirs in the Persian Gulf. In this research, a total of 28 oil samples from nine oilfields located in the western, central and eastern parts of the Persian Gulf region were studied to determine the genetic relatio...
