Εξέλιξη του δυτικού και βόρειου περιθωρίου της λεκάνης της Λεβαντινής σε σχέση με την ύπαρξη πετρελαϊκών συστημάτων = Evolution of the existence of petroleum systems in Western and Northern margin of the Levantine basin.
Περίληψη
Έχουν πραγματοποιηθεί αρκετές ερευνητικές γεωτρήσεις από διάφορες εταιρείες στη Λεκάνη του Λεβάντε, επικεντρωμένες κυρίως στο Νότι και Ανατολικό περιθώριο της λεκάνης. Η παρούσα εργασία, επικεντρώνεται στην τεκτονική εξέλιξη του Βόρειου και Δυτικού περιθωρίου της Λεκάνης του Λεβάντε, παρουσιάζοντας, σε συνδυασμό με άλλες έρευνες, μια πιο γενική εικόνα της περιοχής για την ανακάλυψη πιθανόν ταμιευτήρων πετρελαίου και φυσικού αερίου.
The Levant Basin is a deep and long-standing geological structure located in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. The southern part of the basin hosts a world-class hydrocarbon province off the Nile Delta. Recent discoveries of biogenic gas and various oil shows indicate that the central part of the basin, offshore Israel has significant hydrocarbon potential. Several investigations have been carried out linking geophysical data with regional and local geological data in order to reconstruct the history of the basin and identify favorable hydrocarbon reservoirs. The reconstructed history of the basin shows that the Levant Basin was formed in several main tectonic stages. Initially, the creation of the rift during the early Mesozoic, caused subsidence during the Late Cretaceous and the formation of a deep marine basin. Convergence that took place later in the Tertiary caused uplift, widespread erosion, tilting, and sediment transport into the basin. Under the tectonic activity of the region and the surrounding basins, a variety of potential, structural and stratigraphic hydrocarbon traps were formed in the Levant Basin, mainly during the three main tectonic stages Triassic-Lower Jurassic, Middle Jurassic, and Lower Cretaceous.
Several exploration wells have been carried out by various companies in the Levant Basin, mainly focused on the South and East margin of the basin. The present work focuses on the tectonic evolution of the Northern and Western margin of the Levant Basin, presenting, in combination with other investigations, a more general picture of the area for the discovery of possible oil and natural gas reservoirs.
