Salt tectonics evolution in the Provençal Basin, Western Mediterranean Sea

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
The Messinian Salt Giant in the Provençal Basin represents a good example to study salt tectonics: salt deposition occurred throughout the basin well after basin opening, with a tectonic context stable since ∼16 Ma, in a closed system. Also, the youth of

Assessment of the tectonic role of the Triassic evaporites in the North Toulon fold-thrust belt

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2021
The eastern Beausset Syncline and Toulon Belt, in the southern France, represents the easternmost remnant of the Pyrenean Apto-Albian Rift System and of the Pyrenean-Provençal orogen (Late Cretaceous-Eocene).

Adequate velocity model as a basis for effective seismic imaging when mapping hydrocarbon traps associated with salt domes

Геофизический журнал, 2015
This paper is the second one in a series of tutorials on the usage of modern migration methods for seismic imaging in areas of intense salt tectonics. In the paper, it is shown the importance of building an adequate velocity model for effective seismic ...

Lessons learned from hydrothermal to hot dry rock exploration and production

Energy Geoscience, 2023
In this paper, we investigate geothermal exploration and production in 189 hydrothermal projects and 42 hot dry rock projects around the world. The hydrothermal fields for a working hydrothermal system to generate electricity should have the elements of ...

Effects of Salt Thickness on the Structural Deformation of Foreland Fold-and-Thrust Belt in the Kuqa Depression, Tarim Basin: Insights From Discrete Element Models

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The salt layer is critical for the structural deformation in the salt-bearing fold-and-thrust system, which not only acts as the efficient décollement layer but also flows to form salt tectonics. Kuqa Depression has a well-preserved thin-skinned fold-and-

Salt deposits of the Ufimian Formation in the Solikamsk depression

Литосфера, 2018
The paleogeographic and tectonic conditions of the accumulation of Ufimian deposits (Lower Permian) were reconstructed on the basis of study more than 2000 wells within the Solikamsk depression. The most complete cross-section of the salt-marl formation (

Deformation and evolution of Aptian salt tectonics in the central Lower Congo Basin: integrated analogue and 3D discrete element modelling

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Lower Congo Basin, a salt-rich passive-margin basin, displays complex coupling between salt tectonics and sedimentation that strongly controls hydrocarbon systems, yet the deformation mechanisms and spatiotemporal evolution of its Aptian salt ...

INFLUENCE OF THE EVAPORITE FORMATION STRUCTURE ON SALT TECTONICS AND HYDROCARBON TRAPS (BY THE RESULTS OF NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF HALOKINESIS IN THE PRE-CASPIAN)

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2023
Within the Pre-Caspian sedimentary basin, there is certain regularity in the distribution of types of structures of salt tectonics. It is characterized by concentric zoning corresponding to the change in the sedimentation thickness of the evaporite ...
