Journal of Petroleum Geomechanics as a scientific and research journal publishes papers related to the issues on the geomechanics of hydrocarbon reservoirs. This journal is established by Iranian Association of Petroleum Geomechanics and is published biannually in two hard copy and electronic forms. In this journal, it is attempted to reflect the results of theoretical, developed and applied researches as well as review issues related to geomechanics of hydrocarbon reservoirs including rock physics, seismic and micro-seismic investigations, laboratory and in-situ tests, analytical relations and behavioral models, geomechanical modeling, application of geomechanics in exploration, drilling and production and other special issues in petroleum geomechanics.

To achieve the aims of the journal, all active scientists and researchers in the above-mentioned fields are invited to share their innovative and invaluable scientific and research results with other experts via this journal, and play significant roles in the development of the science of geomechanics of hydrocarbon reservoirs, and consequently, sustainable production and enhanced production of oil and gas from the hydrocarbon reservoirs in the country.

The validity of the scientific and research Journal of Petroleum Geomechanics has been received by a letter number 23709/18/3 dated 16 January 2017 from the Commission of Scientific Journals of the country in the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology.
