considering the importance of temperature and time factors in maturation
and conversion the organic materials ,and the facts, that the sum of the effects
of these factors is effected by the sedimentary burial history and changes with
the changing
of the kerogen types,and for consummation the aim of this study
in isolating the Siluric and upper Paleozoic rock formations in which
temperature and time had allowed to their included organic material to realise
its potential in conversion to hydrocarbonic materials, paleotictonic and
geotemperature diagrams for these formations were drawn depending on real
data from 12 selected drilled wells in the study area, then the values of timetemperature
Arrhenius index and the percent of the realised potential in
conversion to hydrocarbonic materials were calculated for each main kerogen
type (Ia,b,c, II,a,b,c,d, III) which may undergo to the same time-temperature
history of the studied formations.
Considering the importance of the Palmyrian folding zone as one of the
promising zones, and the scientific and practical importance of the isolation of
the matrix formation in any sedimentary basin or in any part of it, and that the
sedimentary ro
cks, which have sufficient quantity and quality of organic
materials cannot become matrixes until they undergo convnient conditions of
temperature, pressure and geological time, the aim of this work is to study the
effect of these factors on the sedimentary rocks of the investigated ones and to
isolate the formations, which may be matrixes.
According to the results of this study,the formations which may play the
main role as matrix are these which have Middle Triassic age or Paleozoicin
the northern Palmyrian subzone, and older than Permian age in the southern
Palmyrian subzone .
