The Arabian Gulf foreland basin, which lies beneath the western edge of the Zagros thrust, was created as a result of this collision. The major Hercynian structures continued to grow leading to the completing the formation of the major oil traps (Hulver, 2000).

The Persian Gulf Basin is the richest region of the World in terms of hydrocarbon resources. According to different estimates, the basin contains 55–68% of recoverable oil reserves and more than 40% of gas reserves.

The Persian Gulf Basin is situated in the Arabian Peninsula between the Arabian Shield in the west, Tau-rus Mountains in the north, and Zagros Orogen in the east and northeast. In addition to the plains of Arabia, this basin also includes water areas of the Persian and Oman gulfs. At the end of the Paleozoic, this basin wit-
