Sedimentologically in terms of five facies associations of the qawasim Formation are; tidally influenced fluvial channels, overbank muds, estuarine tidal channel, estuarine tidal bars and estuarine muds. These facies associations are building blocks for the depositional model that bounded by two incisions during the early messinian time. The lower cycle is called qawasim level I which contains fluvial channel encased in overbank muds of fluvial plain. The upper cycle, qawasim level II is characterized by estuarine tidal channel, estuarine tidal bars, and estuarine muds. The geomorphological characteristics of qQawasim Formation (lower and upper levels) can be detected using detailed seismic interpretations. The sedimentological and seismic characteristics of the Qawasim Formation in El Basant field may indicates the depositions in a tidal regime within estuary domain UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
