Abstract
Major fractures in the subsurface of the Middle East complicate hydrocarbon recovery. The location of these fractures thatare undetectable on seismic sections, is unpredictable thus representing significant geohazards for exploration. To tackle this challenge and improve predictability, we undertook a study on outcrop analogues of Permian reservoirs in the Jebel Akhdar tectonic window in Oman.
