Abstract

The Garzan Formation is one of the most prolific

reservoirs in southeast Turkey. It crops out only in

the center of the Gercus Anticline. A field study

was conducted in July 2015 in order to examine the

Garzan successions in situ. The study area is seated

in Konak Village, near Gercus County, Batman. The

Well F is located at the western side of the field study

area. This well is studied to compare and contrast the

sedimentological properties of the Garzan Formation at

the outcrop with the subsurface extent.
