2

TL;DRAbstract

INA-Industry of Oil Plc. (Croatia) has been present in Syria since 1998, working on exploration and development of hydrocarbon fields located in the Hayan Block. Recently, INA Plc. has been preparing the exploration activities in the Aphamia Block as well. All exploration activities are led by INA Branch Office, while development and production (for now exclusively in Hayan Block) is operated by Hayan Petroleum Company, a joint venture between INA and SPC (Syrian Petroleum Company). Since 1998 six commercial discoveries were reported in the Hayan Block, namely Jihar, Al Mahr, Jazal, Palmyra, Mustadira and Mazrur Fields. The largest proven reserves are related to Jihar Field where hydrocarbons were discovered in heterogeneous reservoir sequences, mostly in the fractured Middle Triassic carbonate reservoirs of the Kurrachine Dolomites Formation. Complex reservoir lithology assumed advanced reservoir characterization that included integration of all geologic and engineering data. Such cha
