        1 - Microfacies and sedimentary environment of Lower Cretaceous deposits in Qumenjan section, south west of Qayen

        In order to study the Lower Cretaceous deposits, Qumenjan section has been selected and measured. Field and lab studies of the Lower Cretaceous deposits in this section reveal a gradual change of the depositional setting, from a fluvial depositional system (continental environment) to a mixed siliciclastic- carbonate ramp (marine environment). The continental deposits of the studied section include conglomerate and sandstone lithofacies that are deposited in a proximal gravel- bed braided river. In the studied sedimentary sequence, the marine siliciclastic- carbonate facies associations are formed in three tidal flat, lagoon and shoal facies belt in the inner and mid ramp setting.

        2 - Reconstruction of Asmari Formation Sedimentary Environment in Asmari and Gurpi Anticlines in the oil field of Masjed Soleiman (Southwest of Iran)

        In this research, the process of lithological changes and diagenetic processes of Asmari formation with Oligo-Miocene age has been investigated. For this purpose, 400 samples were selected and collected from a section of the Masjid Suleiman oil field and the surface section of the Asmari anticline in the Dezful depression and the Gurpi anticline in the Izeh zone. Petrographic studies revealed 18 sedimentary microfacies that were deposited on a ramp-type carbonate platform. Among the significant diagenetic processes in the region are the process of micritization, bioturbation and the influence of burrowing organisms, cementation (types of cement related to marine, meteoric and burial diagenesis environments), dissolution (meteoric and burial dissolution), dolomitization (in different phases), silicification, pyritization, phosphatization, mechanical compaction, chemical compaction, fracture and porosity. Based on the identification of the sequence boundaries and following the facies depth changes, the carbonate sequence of the Asmari formation in the subsurface section and the Asmari anticline section are introduced in the form of 3 sedimentary sequences of the third order shallowing upwards, which are the former Aquitanian, the late Aquitanian and Bordigalin belong. Among the dominant porosities in the Asmari Formation, we can mention the hole, mold and fracture porosities. Manuscript profile
