Abstract: |
Petroleum exploration around Gulf of Suez began just over 100 years ago at Ras Gemsa, with commercial scale oil production starting in 1909. The Gulf is now a well established oil province, presently ranked seventh in terms of production among the major grabens or rift basins of the world. Allover the Gulf of Suez, the Miocene sediments seems to have a very important role in oil accumulation especially in the studied area (October Field), where the large oil discoveries are all located in the tilted fault blocks. In the present paper we are intended to assess the hydrocarbon potentiality of the Northern parts of October Field. |
