Drilling the Un Drillable: A Case Study of the Bela Well in Makran Accretionary Prism
SPE/IADC Middle East Drilling Technology Conference and Exhibition, 2021The Bela Well is situated on Makran accretionary prism with several active mud volcanoes that makes conventional drilling challenging due to the extremely high pore pressure i.e.

Large-scale sediment underplating in the Makran accretionary prism, southwest Pakistan
Geology, 1985Field relations in the emergent part of the Makran accretionary prism show that a mid-Miocene to early Pliocene slope and shelf sedimentary sequence was deposited directly on abyssal-plain turbidites without any detectable stratigraphic or structural discordance.

Submarine pockmarks are residual negative geomorphologic features on the seafloor, which are generally considered to be related to fluid escape. In this paper, the geomorphological characteristics and genetic mechanism of pockmarks in the Makran accretionary prism are analyzed by using multi-beam bathymetric data and multichannel seismic data.

Sediment compaction and fluid migration in the Makran Accretionary Prism
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1989The Makran continental margin in the Gulf of Oman forms the seaward extremity of an accretionary sediment prism which extends several hundred kilometers inland. A recently acquired multichannel seismic reflection profile shot across the margin imaged the structure of the prism in greater detail than was previously possible and allowed us to investigate

Morphotectonics domains and structural styles in the Makran accretionary prism, offshore Iran
Sedimentary Geology, 2007Abstract The Makran accretionary prism is regarded as one of the most extensive subduction complex on Earth. It provides an ideal example of accretionary prism to study processes related to subduction at plate boundaries such as frontal accretion and underplating.

Sediment dewatering in the Makran accretionary prism
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1985Abstract Sediments within the Makran accretionary prism are considerably more compacted than the material entering the subduction zone due to the additional tectonic stresses resulting from plate convergence and accretionary processes. Tectonic compaction of the offscraped sediments has been documented by deriving in-situ porosities in the upper 4 km

Stratal Extension in Thrust Footwalls, Makran Accretionary Prism: Implications for Thrust Tectonics
AAPG Bulletin, 1986Small-scale stratal extension is commonly associated with thrust faults in the Makran accretionary prism of southwest Pakistan. Low-angle normal faults, dipping in the direction of transport relative to the thrust, are common in gouge zones and duplexes, and may also cut the footwall and hanging wall, where they cause stratal extension.
