Abstract
The Khuff Fm is one of the reservoirs with the highest economic significance in the Middle East region. It comprises mixed carbonate/evaporitic sequences of Late Permian-Early Triassic age deposited on a large and flat epeiric carbonate ramp. In North Oman the Khuff houses important hydrocarbon accumulation, and features a field-scale layer-cake geometry characterized by relatively thin reservoir geobodies, with internal property contrast.
