The Gulf of Mexico Basin is one of the most prolific hydrocarbon-producing basins in the world, with an estimated endowment of 200 billion barrels of oil equivalent. This book …
Landslides are common in aquatic settings worldwide, from lakes and coastal environments to the deep sea. Fast-moving, large-volume landslides can potentially trigger destructive …
Submarine mass‐transport deposits are important in many ancient and modern basins. Mass‐transport deposits can play a significant role in exploration as reservoir, seal or source …

Subaquatic mass movements are common in marine and lacustrine environments, but due to their barely predictable nature, direct observations of these processes are limited so that …
Isolated, detached sands provide opportunities for large-volume stratigraphic traps in many deepwater petroleum systems. Here we provide a review of the different types of sandbody …
Subaquatic canyons are an important pathway for sediment transport into oceanic and lacustrine basins. Understanding the mechanisms governing their geomorphological …

Significant gas discoveries have been made in the southern offshore basin of Tanzania continental margin while no gas accumulation has been found in the northern part of the …
Mass-transport deposits (MTDs) are one of the several deepwater deposits and correspond to an important part of the gravitational sedimentation in the basins. MTDs register several …
Although submarine landslides have been studied for decades, a persistent challenge is the integration of diverse geoscientific datasets to characterize failure processes. We present a …
