OIL AND GAS POTENTIAL OF THE EUPHRATES GRABEN IN SYRIA

Syria is an important oil producer in the Middle East region with estimated hydrocarbon reserves of 2.5 billion barrels of oil and 8.5 trillion cubic feet of gas. Prospective areas of Syria with proven industrial oil and gas potential are the northeastern part of the Mesopotamia basin, the Euphrates graben, complicated by the Tual-abba-Sinjar uplifts system, the southern part of the Aleppo plateau and the Palmyra region. The Euphrates graben is located in Southeastern Syria with an area of about 90 x 160 km and is part of the fault system that arose in the Late Cretaceous. It is of great economic importance as one of the largest oil fields in Syria and contains the most important oil fields in Syria, where the estimated production reserves about 1 billion barrels of light oil with less quantities of natural gas. The Euphrates rift system can be divided into several structural elements: it is the deepest lower central element and an adjacent group of grabens surrounding the central depression of the Euphrates, and stable relatively elevated blocks. The main part of the gas and oil fields are located in the fields of Taym, Al-Ward, Teshreen and Al-Jibsa. In terms of oil and gas prospects in Syria, it is possible to distinguish the following areas: promising with proven industrial oil and gas potential; promising with direct signs of oil and gas; promising, but little studied; studied, but unpromising; unexplored. In the Euphrates graben there is a sufficiently large number of oil and gas source rocks and productive reservoirs, which indicates the presence of favorable geological factors that determine the prospects of oil and gas sedimentary cover in the Euphrates basin. The oil and gas potential of the Euphrates graben is associated with deposits of the Poleozoic, Triassic, Cretaceous, Paleogene and Neogene. The set of studies performed shows a favorable prospect for the discovery of new hydrocarbon deposits in the continental part of Syria.
