Structural and Fractures Analysis of Parsi Oil Field

Parsi oil field is located in the north central part of Dezful Embayment. On the basis of subsurface data and applied suitable methods for subsurface analysis, the mechanisms of folding and fracturing in this structure have been presented. Since the forelimb of the anticline is affected by a thrust fault, it is suggested that the Parsi Anticline is a fault- related fold, and because of it’s significant characteristics, the anticline is of detachment fold mechanism with hinge migration and limb rotation model. Methods of Geometrical analysis, drilling data and core studies are shown that reservoire’s zones of 1 and 2 of the Asmari Formation are of highly fractured zone. Also SW limb of SE culmination and NE limb of NW culmination are recognized as part of this structure with prominent fractures.
