Facies-Controlled Sedimentary Distribution and Hydrocarbon Control of Lower Cretaceous Source Rocks in the Northern Persian Gulf by Yaning Wang, Wei Huang, Tao Cheng, Xuan Chen, Qinqin Cong, Jianhao Liang

“…The results indicate the following: (1) the late Tithonian–Berriasian and Aptian–Albian source rocks in the Northern Persian Gulf were deposited during periods of extensive marine transgression, closely aligning with the global Weissert and OAE1d anoxic events, reflecting the profound impact of global environmental changes on regional sedimentary processes; (2) in the early stages of the Neo-Tethyan Ocean, controlled by residual topography, the Late Tithonian–Berriasian source rocks exhibited a shelf–intrashelf basin facies association, with the intrashelf basin showing higher TOC, lower HI, and higher Ro values compared to the deep shelf facies, indicating more favorable conditions for organic matter enrichment; (3) with the opening and deepening of the Neo-Tethyan Ocean, the Aptian–Albian source rocks at the end of the Lower Cretaceous transitioned to a shelf–basin facies association, with the basin facies showing superior organic matter characteristics compared to the shelf facies; (4) the organic matter content, type, and thermal maturity of the two-phase source rocks are primarily controlled by sedimentary facies and terrestrial input, with the Aptian–Albian source rocks in areas with terrestrial input showing significantly better quality than those without, confirming the decisive role of terrestrial input in improving source rock quality. …”
