Abstract

The eastern Arabian platform occupies the southeastern part of the Arabian Shelf. In the north and south, the platform grades into deep sedimentary basins: In the north to northeast, the platform is adjoined by the Mesopotamian–Euphrates basin on the margin with the alpidic Taurus–Zagros mountains and the Gulf basin. In the south, the Rub al Khali constitutes a large intra-platform basin. The eastern Arabian platform adjoins, in the west, the Interior Homocline and is bounded in the northwest by the Rutba uplift structure, which separates the eastern and northern segments of the Arabian Platform. The southern margin of the eastern platform is formed by the anticlinal structure of the Hadramaut arch; in the southeast, the platform borders the allochthonous units of the Oman mountains and extends into the central plateau of Al Wusta area in Oman. Structurally, the eastern Arabian platform includes, along its western and southern margins, the lower part of the “Interior Homocline” with gentle slopes of the strata toward the Euphrates–Gulf–Rub al Khali basin centres.
