Biostratigraphy of the Pabdeh Formation in the Parsi Oil Field (Dezful Embayment, South-West Iran)
AbstractIn order to study biostratigraphy and the determination of biozonation in the Pabdeh Formation based on the new planktonic foraminifera biozonation in the Tethys region, one subsurface section in well 1 of the Parsi Oil Field was selected in the southern Dezful Embayment. Based on this study...
