Abstract:
ABSTRACT The six surface-piercing salt domes of interior North Oman form prominent topographic and geological features in an otherwise flat, rocky desert environment. These domes in the central part of the Ghaba Salt Basin have been known since the 1950s but very little data has been published on them. Our geological survey in 2001 provided significant new lithological, stratigraphic, and sedimentological information on the rocks exposed in the domes. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the morphology, geometry, structural geology and geological evolution of the salt domes. Further

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The Jabal Qumayrah area, 50 km ESE of Al Ain and Buraimi, preserves a culmination of Jurassic and Cretaceous continental slope deposits (Sumeini Group) that was emplaced during the Late Cretaceous onto the Oman margin with other Neo-Tethyan units and the Semail Ophiolite. Almost uniquely in the Oman Mountains, Jabal Qumayrah also contains outcrops of gypsum and anhydrite that occur as a central complex from which laterally discontinuous linear and arcuate outcrops extend up to 4 km to the northwest and south. The gypsum and anhydrite bodies contain sedimentary clasts and rafts, which

ABSTRACT This paper presents field observations and measurements from the Hawasina Window, Oman Mountains. An updated geological map is based partly on previous publications and four NEtrending cross-sections. Along each cross-section key structural features are described, illustrated and interpreted. Based on these (and other) observations several differences between our interpretation and the former published geological maps and cross sections were noted as follows.(1) Late Cretaceous original (Hamrat Duru; Haybi) nappes that formed during intra-oceanic obduction underwent out-of-sequence th

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Gypsiferous intrusions are exposed in road-cuts in the south-central Hawasina Window in the central Oman Mountains. They are located at lower structural levels in the allochthonous Hawasina Complex and lie along faults that cut Upper Cretaceous structures related to the obduction of the Semail Ophiolite and Hawasina Complex deep-water sediments onto the Arabian Plate. The intrusions form gypsiferous pods that are up to 200 m long, in which the gypsum occurs as a dark, fine-grained matrix that contains a pervasive network of anastomosing veins of gypsum and anhydrite.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT In the South Oman Salt Basin (SOSB), the Ara carbonates form an extensively cored, deeply buried intra-salt hydrocarbon play. Six surface-piercing salt domes in the Ghaba Salt Basin (northern Oman) provide the only outcrop equivalents for carbonates and evaporites of the Ediacaran – Early Cambrian Ara Group (upper Huqf Supergroup). Based on fieldwork, satellite images and isotope analysis it is concluded that most of the carbonate bodies (so-called stringers) in the Ghaba salt domes are time-equivalent to the stratigraphically uppermost stringer intervals in the SOSB (A5–A6).

Abstract:
ABSTRACT During late Early Ordovician times an increase in the rate of subsidence in the Ghaba Salt Basin and western South Oman Salt Basin is suggested by the thick sequence of continental clastics of the Ghudun Formation. After a phase of rift-shoulder uplift and erosion, related to a renewed pulse of extension which may have initiated diapiric growth of salt structures in the Ghaba Salt Basin, sedimentation resumed again in the Mid Ordovician. During this period, the center of deposition shifted to the Saih Hatat area in North Oman. This paper documents seismic and well data, field investig

Abstract:
A common problem in dolomite reservoirs is the heterogeneous distribution of porosity-reducing diagenetic phases. The intrasalt carbonates of the Ediacaran-Early Cambrian Ara Group in the South Oman Salt Basin represent a self-sourcing petroleum system. Depositional facies and carbonate/evaporite platform architecture are well understood, but original reservoir properties have been modified by diagenesis. Some of the carbonate reservoirs failed to produce hydrocarbons at acceptable rates, which triggered this study. The extent of primary porosity reduction by diagenetic phases was quantified u

Abstract:
Abstract The mantle–crust boundary beneath oceanic spreading centres is a major chemical and thermal interface on Earth. Observations in ophiolites reveal that it is underlined by a dunitic transition zone (DTZ) that can reach a few hundred meters in thickness and host abundant chromitite ore bodies. The dunites have been deciphered as essentially mantle-derived in most ophiolitic massifs; that is, reactional residues of interactions between peridotite and percolating melt(s). Although both dunite and chromitite in ophiolites have been the focus of many studies, the reasons for their systemati
