The Oligo-Miocene Asmari Formation in SW Iran represents sedimentation on a carbonate platform. Thin-section analysis allowed distinguishing 26 microfacies, which can be grouped into twelve microfacies associations that represent four main depositional environments: open-marine, outer-ramp, middle-ramp and inner-ramp settings. The carbonates have undergone a complex diagenetic history, from penecontemporaneous shallow-marine consolidation to deep-burial diagenesis. The most important processes that affected the carbonates are dolomitization (in different stages), cementation (by anhydrite and calcite), dissolution (fabric-selective and fabric-destructive), fracturing, stylolitization and neomorphism. Minor diagenetic processes that modified the sediments are pyritization, silicification, glauconitization, micritization and bioturbation. Diagenetic processes such as dolomitization, dissolution and fracturing improved the reservoir quality, whereas cementation and compaction have reduced the reservoir quality of the Asmari Formation. Whole-rock oxygen and carbon isotope analyses of limestone samples show that the isotopic composition of the carbonates was hardly affected by diagenesis and that the carbonates remained roughly in isotopic equilibrium with the Paleogene seawater. Some samples have, however, been affected significantly by diagenesis during deep burial in a closed to semi-closed diagenetic system.

A multivariate-Bayesian approach has been applied to the Nanpu Sag of the Bohai Bay Basin, eastern China, to evaluate probability of oil occurrence. The geological data from 343 exploratory wells and seismic interpretations that were available at the end of 2004 were used for the purpose. Seventeen wells were drilled after the evaluation in 2005, sixteen of which reached their target horizon. Eight of the nine wells drilled in areas with a predicted high probability of hydrocarbon occurrence (>50%) encountered commercial oil, indeed; post-drilling analysis indicated that seven of these eight wells yielded high flow rates from thick net pay, and that one of these wells yielded a low flow rate. Seven wells were drilled in areas with a predicted relatively low probability (<50%) of oil occurrence; three of them were dry and four recovered oil with relatively low flow rates. Comparison of the post-drilling results with the pre-drilling prediction suggests that the multivariate-Bayesian approach can help visualize geological risk, thus improving exploration success by optimizing the drilling strategy.
