About the Book

Micropalaeontology has played an important role in the exploration for hydrocarbons in the Middle East for the last 75 years, and its uses in new approaches to hydrocarbon exploration such as sequence stratigraphy make an appreciation of applications more appropriate than ever. However, little has been published on the microfauna and microflora of the Middle East in comparison with those from other parts of the world - despite their extensive use in exploration and production investigations. In this book, a number of studies concerning the palaeontology of the Middle East have been gathered together with special reference to hydrocarbon exploration. Thus this volume serves as a reference text which both demonstrates the applications of micropalaeontology and further documents the microfossils of this region. This book should be of interest to micropalaeontologists involved in exploration; and oil industry geologists, stratigraphers and palaeontologists.

Table of Contents:
Introduction, M.D. Simmons; late devonian and early carboniferous palynostratigraphy and its application in north-eastern Syria, R.L. Ravn, B. McPhilemy, et al; the palynostratigraphy of the Haushi Group (Westphalian - Artiskian) in Oman, C.F. Love; micropalaeontological biozonation of the amran series (jurassic) in the Sana's region, Yemen, M.D. Simmons, K. Al-Thour; upper jurassic - lower cretaceous stratigraphy - the arab, hith and rayda formations in Abu Dhabi, J. Esteves de Matos; late mesozoic stromatoporoids - their use as stratigraphic tools and palaeoenvironmental indicators, C. Toland; palaeoenvironmental and biostratigraphic significance of foraminiferal associations from the early cretaceous sediments of south west Iran, S.S. Shakib; sedimentary facies and hydrocarbon considerations of Berriasian - Hauterivian carbonates in Central Arabia, H.T. Shebel, A.S. Alsharhan; micropalaeontological biozonation of the kahmah group (early cretaceous) central Oman mountains, M.D. Simmons; orbitolinid biostratigraphy of the shuaiba formation (aptian), Oman-implications for reservoir development, W. Witt, H. Gokdag; calcareous algae and foraminifera as water depth indicators - an example from the early cretaceous carbonates of north-east Arabia, F.T.

Review :
...the book is extremely good value...I would say that all Oil Companies and Consultancies should have a copy, if they haven't already. It is also of academic interest to algologists, foraminferan specialists, ostracodologists, palynologists and sequence stratigraphers. Its presentation is attractive so I hope I can incite you, in the words of Saint Augustine, 'tolle lege, tolle lege': take up and read, take up and read!' The Palaeontological Association Newsletter The chapters are all very well constructed and easy to read...The book is highly recommended to all biostratigraphers... the book is very good value.'
