Eastern Mediterranean Basin poses importance with respect to not only the drilled and scheduled offshore wells but also the source rock discoveries made in the near past. On the contrary, available limited data and knowledge regarding these source rocks and their spatial distribution throughout the region bring challenges for a solid understanding of the petroleum system of the subject area. To gain an understanding of the petroleum system in the region, it is crucial to undertake a thorough assessment of the source rock units and discern their depositional processes. Utilizing this information as a foundation, conducting field studies on Nappes becomes crucial due to the uncertainty surrounding the number of depocenters in the region. Notably, the presence of Triassic-aged source rock examples in Northern Italy adds to the region’s allure for exploration.
