In the context of rift basin formation, structural inheritance describes the influence of pre- existing structures on new rift-related structures, including faults. Pre-existing structures in …
Increased interest in the two-and three-dimensional geometries and development of faults and other types of fractures in rock has led to an increasingly bewildering terminology. Here …
Smeaheia, a prominent fault block located on the Horda Platform, northern North Sea is identified as a potential subsurface CO 2 storage site. We utilise the GN1101 3D seismic …
Normal faults grow via synchronous increase in displacement and length ('propagating fault model', also known as the 'isolated fault model'), or by rapid length establishment and …
The impact of a pre‐existing rift fabric on normal fault array evolution during a subsequent phase of lithospheric extension is investigated using 2‐D and 3‐D seismic reflection, and …
Many rifts develop through multiphase extension; it can be difficult, however, to determine how strain is distributed during reactivation because structural and stratigraphic evidence …
Normal faults grow via a sympathetic increase in their displacement and length ('isolated model') or by rapid establishment of their near-final length prior to significant displacement …
We investigate the structural style and evolution of a salt-influenced, extensional fault array in the Egersund Basin (Norwegian North Sea) through analysis of 3D reflection seismic and …
Significant uncertainties occur through varying methodologies when interpreting faults using seismic data. These uncertainties are carried through to the interpretation of how faults may …
