Abstract :
Garmsar block is located in Central Iran Basin, and the geological prospecting in this area is in the early stage. Late research reveals this area is potential oil-bearing and some reservoirs have been found in adjacent areas in Central Iran Basin. Qom Formation is proven that has the potentiality of self-generation and self-accumulation. The depositional setting and sedimentary-tectonic setting in this block are different with Zagros area which is famous for oil-gas enrichment and well studied in terms of geological setting. This paper presents a brief introduction of latest study results for basic Geological Setting of Garmsar Block and exploration history as well, and provides instructive reference for further exploration.
