The uppermost Jurassic–lower Cretaceous carbonate successions of the Manifa member and Fahliyan Formation are as an important oil reservoir of Northwestern Persian Gulf. This study addresses the application of GR D-INPEFA curve to discriminate and correlate key stratigraphic surfaces and sequences of the studied carbonates in five wells a giant oil field of the Persian Gulf. To achieve this goal, identified key stratigraphic surfaces of core and thin sections were compared with interpretation of GR D-INPEFA curve. From sequence stratigraphic point of view and based on the results from geological studies, the Late Tithonian-Neocomian sequence has been discriminated into four third-order sequences which are described and interpreted. The top sequence boundary of the Manifa carbonate corresponds to a significant discontinuity that associated with evidence of karstification and distinct facies variation above and below this key surfaces. Based on the applied D-INPEFA curve, the identified sequence can be effectively discriminated and correlated in the field scale. %U http://www.gsjournal.ir/article_140993_844ccf50014765d4a652fce54b92927d.pdf
