Surface Deformation and Salt Budget of an Active Salt Fountain, Finu in the Zagros Mountains, Iran, Using Persistent Scatterer Interferometry [PDF]

Lithosphere
In subaerial salt diapirs, salt buoyancy drives the vertical flow of salt in the feeder, salt extrusion, and gravity spreading on the surface. The shape of these diapirs is controlled by the balance between buoyancy forces, gravity spreading on the ...

Green Hydrogen Storage in an Underground Cavern: A Case Study in Salt Diapir of Spain

Applied Sciences, 2022
The Poza de la Sal diapir is a closed circular depression with Cretaceous Mesozoic materials, formed by gypsum, Keuper clays, and a large extension of salt in the center with intercalations of ophite.

Salt Units of the Kribi-Campo Sub-Basin Revisited, Using Offshore 2D Seismic and Boreholes Data: Depositional Context and Petroleum Implications

Proceedings, 2023
This work re-examines the salt unit through the Kribi-Campo sub-basin on the southeast part of the Cameroon Atlantic Margin. The results obtained from borehole data analysis show the occurrence of an evaporitic unit, localized in the Kribi area. The well

Mapping salt diapirs and salt diapir-affected areas using MLP neural network model and ASTER data

International Journal of Digital Earth, 2013
Abstract This study employs visible-near infrared and short wave infrared datasets of Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) to map salt diapirs and salt diapir-affected areas using Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) in the Zagros Folded Belt, Iran, and introduces the role of earth observation technology and a type of digital ...

Association of oil-hydrogen and salt accumulation from the position of the technology of structural-thermo-atmo-geological-geochemical studies

Мінеральні ресурси України, 2023
The logistics of structural-thermo-atmo-geological-geochemical technology is justified, which consists of a comprehensive approach to substantiating the regularities of spatial-temporal functioning of oil-salt fluid transport systems, creating geological

Tectonic evolution of the Triassic diapirs in the southern front of the Rif belt, Northern Morocco

Geogaceta, 2022
Located at the front of the external Pre-Rif, northern Morocco, at the edge between the Rif cordillera and the Saiss neogen basin, Triassic diapirs constitute one of the main features of this area, occurring within the Meso-Cenozoic allochthonous ...

Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy Applied to Reservoir Recognition and Evolution on Marine Carbonatic Ramp—Macaé Group (Albian to Cenomanian) of Campos Basin

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
A classic oil producing interval of the Campos Basin—Macaé Group is revisited through seismic stratigraphic analysis, providing a stratigraphic framework, characteristic depositional and relative time positioning for several complex structural settings.

Folding and fracturing of rocks adjacent to salt diapirs

Journal of Structural Geology, 2020
This review paper examines deformation adjacent to salt stocks and walls and beneath salt sheets, with a focus on passive salt rise or emplacement and structures ranging from large-scale folds and faults to small-scale folds, fractures, and shear zones.

The Unexpected Discovery of Paleocene? Coals in Outcrops Thought to Be Cambrian, Al Huqf, Oman

Journal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Two brown organic deposits were encountered whilst investigating kaolinitic claystones thought to occur at the base of a Cambrian formation at outcrop. The age of these organic deposits is probably Paleocene from palynology. Organic petrography shows that they are subbituminous coals with some oil source potential.

Salt Diapirism in Central Utah: ABSTRACT [PDF]

AAPG Bulletin, 1983
In central Utah, many complex structures in the transition zone between the Colorado Plateau Province and the Great Basin can be explained by salt diapirism. Flowage of rock salt (halite) in the Arapien Shale (Middle Jurassic) has forced up the enveloping mudstones, which in turn have bowed up younger consolidated strata to form elongate, linear ...
