Seals

In most Moroccan Sedimentary basins and for most prospective reservoirs, exist adequate seals. These are:
 
  • Tertiary marl and shale;
  • Cretaceous shale and marls and, in places, salt and anhydrite;
  • Jurassic shale, anhydrite and in places salt;
  • Thick Triassic shale and salt is the most adequate seal for any sub-salt reservoir;
  • Within the Paleozïc succession each shally interval may act as a seal for underlying reservoirs.
