Recent advances are reviewed in the understanding of the geometry and development of
steep, planar normal faults with up to hundreds of meters throw in multilayered sedimentary …

Polygonal fault systems (PFS) are widely developed along many continental margin basins
and some interior cratonic and foreland basins. They are networks of small normal faults that …

Seabed fluid flow involves the flow of gases and liquids through the seabed. Such fluids
have been found to leak through the seabed into the marine environment in seas and …

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 …

Passive continental margins such as the Atlantic seaboard of Europe are important for
society as they contain large energy resources, and they sustain ecosystems that are the …

Fracture systems comprise many fractures that may be grouped into sets based on their
orientation, type and relative age. The fractures are often arranged in a network that involves …

Polygonal fault systems are widely developed in fine-grained sedimentary successions and
have been recognized in over 50 basins worldwide. They are normal faults with modest …
