The impact of syn- and post-extension prograding sedimentation on the development of salt-related rift basins and their inversion: Clues from analogue modelling [PDF]
, 2019 Various studies have demonstrated the intrinsic interrelationship between tectonics and sedimentation in salt-related rift basins during extension as well as during their inversion by compression. Here, we present seven brittle-ductile analogue models to

Controls on variations in minibasin geometries: Lower Congo Basin, offshore Angola
, 2019 In passive margin salt basins, the distinct tectonic domains of thin-skinned extension and contraction exert important controls on the geometry and evolution of minibasins. In this study, we use a semi-regional 3D seismic dataset from the Lower Congo Basin to investigate the spatial and temporal evolution of a network of salt-related minibasins and ...

Characterization of Oligo-Miocene evaporite-rich minibasins in the Sivas Basin, Turkey
Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2019 Abstract The Sivas Basin in Turkey displays in its central part an Oligo-Miocene halokinetic province which acts as a major outcrop analogue to study salt-sediment interactions. Based on field geology observations, the present paper focuses on the geometry and sedimentology of several minibasins having the particularity of being mainly filled by ...

ROLE OF INHERITANCES IN SHAPING THE ZAGROS THRUST AND FOLD BELT [PDF]
, 2021 The claim that a place has a unique geology is made often, and never incorrectly. The Zagros fold and thrust belt represents an exceptional example where different structural and stratigraphic inheritances co-exist along the same mountain range, playing ...

Hydrocarbon plumbing systems of salt minibasins offshore Angola revealed by three-dimensional seismic analysis [PDF]
, 2011 Analysis of three-dimensional seismic data from the lower Congo Basin, offshore Angola, reveals numerous fluid-flow features in the Miocene to Holocene succession and the potential for large, shielded traps underneath basinward overhanging salt ...

Comparing the paleohydrologic structure on either side of Witchelina Diapir, South Australia [PDF]
, 2017 This thesis uses both numerical modeling and a field study to assess fluid systems associated with salt diapirs. I initially use the modeling software TOUGH2-MP to simulate coupled fluid and heat transport in the near salt environment. I use the software

Basin Research, 2019 Abstract Salt‐detached gravity gliding/spreading systems having a rugose base‐of‐salt display complex strain patterns. However, little was previously known about how welding of supra‐salt minibasins to the sub‐salt may influence both the downslope translation of minibasins on salt‐detached slopes and the regional pattern of supra‐salt

Applying modern interpretation techniques to old hydrocarbon fields to find new reserves: A case study in the onshore Gulf of Mexico, U.S.A. [PDF]
, 2016 This study shows how the use of modern geological investigative techniques can reopen old, “drained” hydrocarbon fields. Specifically, it looks at the White Castle Field in South Louisiana.
