Combining Geophysics and Basin Modeling to Develop a Thermal Model in an Offshore Block, Mexican Gulf of Mexico: Constraining Source Rock Maturity Through OAT Sensitivity Analyses of Key Inputs

The recent discovery of the Zama field in offshore Sureste Basin in the southern Gulf of Mexico has piqued interest in the Mexican petroleum industry regarding the hydrocarbon potential within the region. In this study, a deposition-only thermal model was developed in an area of interest (AOI) in this region. Using structural input obtained from...
