Exploring carbonate reservoirs potential, north Egypt

Carbonate reservoirs contain a significant portion of the world's oil reserves. The Middle East is home to many of these reservoirs. Carbonate reservoirs can be found in a few very large oil fields, including Egypt's Zohr field, the largest conventional gas field in Egypt. In this article,...
