8vo. (227)-252 pp. With a geological map of Iran and Iraq and a chart of composite cross-sections in the text. Scientific paper by the leading geologist of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, George Martin Lees (1898-1955) and his colleague F. D. S. Richardson. It studies the geological structure of oilfields in Iran and Iraq, the mode of occurence of the oil, the distribution of the oil fields, surface indications of oil and gas, and structural problems. - Offprint from the "Geological Magazine", vol. LXXVII, no. 3. - Cancelled ownership of F. E. Wellings, Chief Geologist for the Iraq Petroleum Company, to front cover. Very well preserved. - Cf. OCLC 183415306.…

Scientific paper by the leading geologist of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, George Martin Lees (1898-1955). Inscribed copy signed by the author: "With the Compliments of G. M. Lees". - The paper studies the geological structure of oilfields in the Middle East, including the Zubair and Burgan fields in Iraq, or the Dukhan field in Qatar. The chart shows a Bubnoff diagram indicating the structural and sedimentary history between the Persian mountain zone and the Arabian foreland. The map shows prominent oilfields in the Middle East with high density on the Persian Gulf. - Offprint from "The Science of Petroleum" vol. I, part I. - Library stamp and shelfmark of the Sedgwick Museum Lending Library at the University of Cambridge to front cover. Some rust spots from stapling, otherwise in fine condition. - Cf.

4to. 26-33 pp. With a map and two charts in the text. Original printed wrappers. Stapled. Scientific paper by the leading geologist of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, George Martin Lees (1898-1955). An inscribed copy signed by the author: "With the Author's Compliments / G. M. Lees". - The paper studies the geological structure of oilfields in the Middle East, including the Burgan field in Kuwait and the Kirkuk field in Iraq, considering the latter a "striking example [of] unusual structural simplicity and regularity" (p. 26). - The illustrations include a geological map of oilfields in Iran, Iraq, and the Gulf region, a generalised table of strata showing correlation between mountain front and the Arabian foreland, and a digrammatic cross section of the Burgan oilfield. - Reprinted from the International Geological Congress, "Report of the Eighteenth Session, Great Britain, 1948", part VI. - Front cover has stamp of the Queen Mary College, Geological Department. Slightly creased; small rust spots near staples. - Cf. OCLC 545053.…

4to. (73)-82 pp. With 4 black-and-white photographic plates. One map and two geological charts in the text. Scientific paper by the leading geologist of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, George Martin Lees (1898-1955). Inscribed copy signed by the author: "With the Compliments of G. M. Lees". - The paper studies the geological structure of oilfields in Iraq and the Gulf, including a stratigraphic analysis, a reflection on oil indicators and source rocks, and a detailed report on various oilfields including Masjid-i-Sulaiman, Haft Kel, Agha Jari, and Lali, the youngest of the Persian oilfields at the time. The photographic illustrations depict the Kuh-i-Namak salt plug, the long Kabir Kuh anticline exposing Middle Cretaceous limestones in the core, Asmari mountain, and the Kuh-i Kharbal syncline. - Offprint from "The Science of Petroleum" vol.
