“…As evidenced by geophysical and borehole data, the basin is filled with more than a 5-km-thick sedimentary sequence ranging from the Precambrian to the Quaternary (Metwalli et al, 1981;Metwalli et al, 1982;El-Hattab, 1982;Montenat et al, 1988;EGPC, 1996;Radwan, 2022b), which is punctuated by several unconformities of different magnitudes and ages (Figure 3). The studied area of El Morgan oil field is situated in the south central offshore area of the rift basin, where numerous hydrocarbon plays are present (Figure 3) (Alsharhan and Salah, 1995;EGPC, 1996;Bosworth and McClay, 2001;Barakat et al, 2002;Youssef et al, 2002;Alsharhan, 2003;Radwan, 2014;Attia et al, 2015;Abudeif et al, 2016a;El Ayouty, 2017;Abudeif et al, 2018;Radwan, 2018;Radwan et al, 2019a;Radwan et al, 2019b;Radwan et al, 2019c;Radwan et al, 2020a;Radwan et al, 2020b;Radwan et al, 2020c;Radwan et al, 2021c;Radwan et al, 2021d;Radwan et al, 2021e;Ali et al, 2022). El Morgan field is located on the southwest coast of the Sinai Peninsula, covering an area of roughly 46 km 2 (Bentley and Biller, 1990;Radwan, 2014;Attia et al, 2015).…”
