Abstract in English
The aim of this research is to identified the tectonic evolution of
Naher Al-Kabir Al-Shimaly Basin from tectonic subsidence curve
witch calculated from Lattakia1 well data. Tectonic subsidence
was identified in lower-middle Jurassic en relation of opening of
East Mediterranean basin. A subsidence is occurred in
Cenomaniane, after a stage of uplift in late Jurassic-lower
Cretaceous en relation to fold and erosion known at regional
scale.
