Organogeochemical analysis is based on the pyrolysis for rock samples representing the different rock units penetrated by seven wells in the study area. Representative saturated hydrocarbon fractions from different rock units are also analyzed by gas chromatography. The obtained data suggested that Ras Qattara Formation has poor potential to generate gas, Khatatba Formation has poor to very good source potential for generating mixed oil and gas, Masajid Formation has poor to fair potential for generating gas, and Alam El Bueib Formation has poor to fair generating capability for generating both oil and gas. The gas chromatographic analysis for the saturated hydrocarbons showed that the organic content of the study formations are derived from mixed organic sources deposited under transitional environments. The burial history models of the sedimentary sequence showed that Ras Qattara Formation started to generate hydrocarbons during Paleocene, Khatatba Formation during Late Cretaceous-Eocene, Masajid Formation during Late Cretaceous-Late Miocene, and Alam El Bueib Formation during Late Cretaceous-Oligocene.
