The Lower Cretaceous Makhul Formation is one of the major petroleum source rocks in Kuwait.
It is composed of dark grey to black highly bituminous, pyrite-rich limestone with average thickness of 220 m.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Makhul source rock for its organic matter richness and its relation to the rock composition and depositional environment.
A total of 117 core samples were collected from five wells in Raudhatain, Ritqa, Mutriba, Burgan and Minagish oil fields north and south Kuwait.
The rock petrographical studies were carried out using transmitted and polarized microscope, as well as, SEM and XRD analyses on selected samples.
Total organic matter TOC and elemental analyses were done on isolated kerogen and followed by identification of kerogen type optically.
Solvent extracts were analysed using GC and GC-MS as well as carbon isotope ratio.
The results of this study show that at its earliest time the Makhul Formation was deposited in an oxic shallow marine shelf environment.
During its middle part of deposition, the water oxicity level was fluctuating from oxic to anoxic condition as a result of changes in sea water level.
At the end of Makhul and the start of upper Minagish Formation, the sea level raised forming oxic open marine ramp depositional condition.
