Abstract in English
The Palmyra's chain, is one of the Syrian strategic petroleum regions. Thus the
petroleum companies were interested by this structure through the petro-service contracts.
This study focused on petroleum potential of the Mizozoic formations in the NPalmyra.
The formation thickness variations have permitted to estimate this potentiality
relating to: Kurachina dolomite, Butma, Al- Haramon, and Rutba formations. In the other
side, the other formations are poor. Also, through the results of executed studies, using the
time- map data and the seismic profiles analysis, a new promising structure, El Khashabia,
is proposed. In this structure a new well is suggested, which must be promising as
petroleum potential.
