Full text (user-supplied PDF). Subsurface seismic structural/stratigraphic correlation across the Drigri Anticline and Bahawalpur High, Central (Lower) Indus Basin, tied to the Drigri-01 and Bahawalpur East-01 wells. Used for petroleum-system economic-importance content: source rocks (Shinawari & Chichali shales), Mesozoic reservoir rocks (Lumshiwal, Samana Suk, Shinawari, Datta), and Ranikot (Paleocene) shale seal over the Late Cretaceous Pab Sandstone (recorded as attributed notes).

This page is the reverse of each unit's per-field citations — it shows exactly what this reference supports, making the dataset's “no source, no fact” rule browsable both ways.

Units citing this source

• Mesozoic Chichali Formation Jurassic-Cretaceous
  • Economic importance: Asim et al. (2014): the shales of the (Late Jurassic–Neocomian) Chichali Formation are a hydrocarbon SOURCE rock in the Central Indus Basin (Punjab Platform / Sulaiman Depression), mature enough to have generated large volumes of gas.
• Mesozoic Datta Formation Jurassic
  • Economic importance: Asim et al. (2014): the (Early Jurassic) Datta Formation is among the proven Mesozoic RESERVOIR rocks in the Central Indus Basin (Drigri Anticline–Bahawalpur High seismic correlation).
• Mesozoic Lumshiwal Formation Cretaceous
  • Economic importance: Asim et al. (2014): the Lumshiwal Formation is one of the proven Mesozoic RESERVOIR rocks in the Central Indus Basin (Drigri Anticline–Bahawalpur High seismic correlation).
• Mesozoic Pab Sandstone Cretaceous
  • Economic importance: Asim et al. (2014): in the Drigri and Kotrum anticlines (Central Indus Basin) the Late Cretaceous Pab Sandstone forms a RESERVOIR sealed by the overlying Paleocene Ranikot shales — a structural (gentle-anticline) trap of the Safed Koh Trend.
• Cenozoic Ranikot Group Paleogene
  • Economic importance: Asim et al. (2014): the Paleocene Ranikot (shale) provides the top SEAL over the Late Cretaceous Pab Sandstone reservoir in the Drigri/Kotrum anticlines of the Central Indus Basin.
• Mesozoic Samana Suk Formation Jurassic
  • Economic importance: Asim et al. (2014): the (Middle Jurassic) Samana Suk Formation is among the proven Mesozoic RESERVOIR rocks in the Central Indus Basin (Drigri Anticline–Bahawalpur High).
• Mesozoic Shinawari Formation Jurassic
  • Economic importance: Asim et al. (2014): in the Central Indus Basin (Drigri Anticline–Bahawalpur High) the shales of the Shinawari Formation act as a hydrocarbon SOURCE rock on the Punjab Platform and in the Sulaiman Depression (sufficiently mature to generate large gas volumes); the Shinawari sandstones are also cited among the proven Mesozoic RESERVOIR rocks.
