Field and context
Umm Shaif is a giant, mature field in the Arabian Gulf sector of the Arabian Basin, discovered in 1958. Its principal reservoir is the Upper Jurassic Arab Formation, a thick carbonate–evaporite succession divided into Arab A–D units. The field contains a substantial gas cap and is developed through distributed wellhead towers, with water and sour-gas injection used for reservoir-pressure support.
