        This research concentrates on biostratigraphy, microfasies and Sedimentary environment of the Asmari Formation at Davan village in 10 Km north of Kazerun. Micropalaeontological study led to recognition of 25 genera and 15 species of foraminifera. Based on biostratigraphic study 3 biozones (1-Nummulites vascus – Nummulites fichteli assemblage zone, 2 -Lepdocyclina-Operculina- Ditrupa Assemblage Zone, 3- Archaias asmaricus- Archaias hensoni- Miogypsinoides complanatus Assemblage Zone) are determined. As a result, the age of the Asmari Formation is Oligocene (Rupelian – Chattian) at the study area. Depositional texture, petrographic analyses and fauna led to identification of 9 carbonate microfacies related to open marine, slope, bar and lagoon. These depositional environments correspond to inner, middle, and outer ramp. Manuscript profile

        Abstract In this research based on petrography study of 320 thin sections (cutting samples), biostratigraphy, microfacies and depositional environment analysis has been done to determine the boundary between the Shahbazan and Asmari formations in well No. 1 of the Balarud Oil Field, located in the north of Dezful embayment. The Shahbazan Formation with 460 meters thick with mainly composed of dolomite along with interlayers of limestone, shale and anhydrite in the studied well. The lower boundary of this formation with the Pabdeh Formation is conformable and its upper boundary with the Asmari Formation is marked by an unconformity. The Asmari Formation with thickness of 140 meters mainly consists of limestone and shale with the interlayers of dolomite; its upper boundary to the Gachsaran Formation is conformable. Biostratigraphy studies documented a high diversity of shallow-water benthic and rare planktonic foraminiferas and led to the determining of one assemblage zone in the Shahbazan Formation (15 genera and 8 species) that indicates age of the Priabonain. Three assemblage zones also were recognized in the Asmari Formation (12 genera and 8 species) that, shows the age of the Asmari Formation from Mid-Rupelian to the Chattian, Aquitanian and Burdigalin. Based on biostratigraphy studies, the boundary between Shahbazan and Asmari formations and the position of an unconformity between them were determined. The facies analysis led to recognition of eight microfacies for the Shahbazan Formation which belong to three facies belts of inner (tidal flat and lagoon), middle and outer ramp, deposited on a ramp-type carbonate platform. Also four microfacies were recognized in the Asmari Formation which are related to the inner carbonate platform. Manuscript profile

        In this study, sedimentary environment and depositional sequences were reconstructed based on distribution of microfacies in the sequence belong to the Qom Formation in the Kahak area. The formation was formed alternation of shale and limestone. The boundary between the Qom Formation and the volcanic rocks is unconformable. In addition, the Upper Red Formation in the Kahak area unconformably overlies the Qom Formation. In the study area, 6 microfacies, and 1 terrigenous facies (shale) for the Qom Formation were identified by study of these rock samples. The Qom Formation was deposited in an open-shelf carbonate platform in the study area. This platform can be divided into two environments that the environments consist of the inner shelf (restricted lagoon and semi-restricted lagoon) and middle shelf. Finally, two third-order sequences were identified based on distribution of microfacies in the Kahak area. Manuscript profile

        In this study, biostratigraphy, micofacies and sedimentary environment of Dariyan Formation in Anneh Anticline, near Hosein-Abad village (east of Gachsaran city) were investigated. Dariyan Formation at this study were consisted of 196 meters of thick, medium and thin layers of limestone, with orbitolinids, marl and marly limestone. The Daryian Formation is divided into the upper and lower parts, based on the existence of tongue with thin layer of limestone and laminated shale along with interlayer chert, with a large amount of radiolarids and planktonic foraminifera. In study area, Dariyan Formation conformably overlies the Gadvan Formation and is overlain by Kazhdumi Formation. A total of 114 thin sections were extracted from the study area and 22 benthonic foraminifera and 3 planktonic foraminifera have been identified in 4 biozones and 1 subzone: Praeorbitolina cormyi zone, Palorbitolinoides cf. orbiculata subzone, Hedbergella spp. Assemblage zone, Mesorbitolina texana zone, Mesorbitolina gr. subconcava zone. Based on identified zones in the study section, the age of Dariyan Formation is designated between Early Aptian to Albian. Sedimentary environment study of Dariyan Formation in Anneh Anticline led to identification of 9 microfacies related to open marine and lagoon. Due to the lack of a barrier facies, slumping and storm deposits, lump and grapston, an open shelf sedimentary environment was suggested for deposition of the Dariyan Formation in Anneh anticline.

        Reconstruction of the sedimentary environment of the Middle-Upper Maastrichtian deposits (Tarbur Formation) in the Murak area (southwest of Semirom) was performed based on Microfacies and microtaphofacies analysis. The formation with 239 m thickness consists of limestone and shale. Meanwhile, the Tarbur deposits overlie the Gurpi Formation and is covered by the Paleocene deposits. Seven and five microfacies and microtaphofacies were recognized based on the main components and sedimentological and taphonomical features, respectively. In addition, these microfacies and microtaphofacies were deposited in homonicnal carbonate ramp. From the viewpoint of vertical distribution and interpretation of microfacies and microtaphofacies, the Tarbur deposits were formed in the energetic environment (under the influence of the storm waves) in the study area. Therefore, communities of rudist are absent and the green algae (Dasycladales) are abundant in the study area. Concerning the high rate of detrital grain input and increasing of nutrients, the bryozoans were performed the encrusting more than other organisms. Manuscript profile

        In order to identify foraminifera and determine the age of Dariyan Formation and the lower Cretaceous sediments of Central Iran, a section of Dariyan Formation in Lar Anticline (northeast Gachsaran) (with a thickness of 111m, thick, medium and thin layer of limestone, marl and marly limestone) and Kolah Ghazi section (south west Isfahan) (with a thickness of 260m, thick to medium layer limestone and shale) were studied. Based on biostratigraphic studies of Lar Anticline section, 28 benthonic foraminifera and 4 planktonic foraminifera have been identified in 4 biozones contains: Hedbergellids - Orbitolinids assemblage zone, Mesorbitolina texana zone, Mesorbitolina gr. subconcava zone, Favusella washitensis rang zone. Based on biostratigraphic of Lower Cretaseous sediments in Kuh-e-Kolah Ghazi, 21 benthonic foraminifera and 1 planktonic foraminifera have been identified and consequently 2 biozones are recognized contains: Mesorbitolina texana zone, Mesorbitolina gr. subconcava zonethe studied areas were correlated with some sections of the Dariyan in Kuh-e-Fahliyan, Kuh-e- Mangasht and Meymand. Accordingly, the sedimentation of two studied sections in Lar Anticline and Kuh-e-Kolah Ghazi were started from Late Aptian which were later than the other sections, and the end of sedimentation in the Kuh-e-Kolah Ghazi was earlier than the other sections in the Late Aptian age, while the end of sedimentation of Dariyan Formation in other sections was in Early Albian age Manuscript profile

        The most important reason for studying any oil reservoir is the more efficient use of the production parts of the reservoir and the first step in identifying the reservoir is its zoning. Zoning is determined based on lithological changes by combining production data and petrophysical logs in each reservoir. In order to improve and accelerate the zoning of oil reservoirs, like other branches of science, the use of software has become common in recent years. One of the most powerful of these software's is Cyclolog. The science of using this software is cyclostratigraphy, which can be used to separate reservoir zones based on sedimentary cycles and their knowledge. Cyclolog software with the help of petrophysical logs taken from the wellbore and especially gamma diagram (GR) allows subsurface matching and preparation of matching charts in selected wells. In this study, in the three oil fields studied (Karanj, Paranj and Parsi) using cyclolog software, a total of seven positive timelines (Pb3000, Pb2000, Pb1500, Pb1000, Pb500, Pb400, and Pb300) as well as five negative timelines (Nb4000, Nb3000, Nb2000, Nb1000, and Nb500) were detected. Accordingly, the Pb1500 timeline is the separator and the boundary of the Chattian and Aquitanian peaks, which in the wells of all three studied fields almost cross the boundary of reservoir zones 3 and 4. The Nb4000, Nb3000, and Nb2000 timelines are also Chattian age. The Nb3000 timeline in Karanj oil field has crossed the boundaries of zones 4 and 5 in most of the wells due to calibration with biometric evidence (biostratigraphy) and indicates the top of the formation. The age of the Nb500 timeline is Burdigalian and passes through the middle of their reservoir zone 1 in the study area. The boundary between the Aquitanian and Burdigalian peaks is defined by the Nb1000 timeline. This timeline crosses the boundaries of zones 1 and 2 in all three fields studied Manuscript profile

        Kale-Sardar section, is located at the vicinity of Niaz village, 15 kilometers east of Tabas town. This section consists of 80 m thick and from Late Devonian deposits as known as Shishtu formation that upper part of this section has cut by a fault by Frasnian’s deposits. The entire studied thickness is subdivided into 12 lithostratigraphic units and in order to study of conodont elements, 27 species and subspecies belonging to 7 genera were recognized, that due to these revealed conodont elements, Shishtu formation’s age in the studied section spans from Eifelian to late Frasnian. The Frasnian-Famennian bio event in studied section is located between two intervals linguiformis Zone and Lower to Middle triangularis zones which is located at the top of the dark Frasnian shales and at the base of the thin limestones of the Famennian layer. The microfacies determined in studied section are subdivided into siliciclastic-carbonate and carbonate facies, which were deposited from the shore to the deep part of the marine environment. Gradual changes in facies within stratigraphical sequence, sedimentological hiatus due to sudden change in sedimentary environment’s slope, absence of reef facies (related to Wilson’s 5th facies zone) and presence of discontinuous bioclastic barrier (existence of semi-enclosed lagoon), convey that studied sediments were deposited in a homoclinal carbonate ramp.
