Yinggehai basin gas exploration: Comparison with Jiyang depression

Journal of Earth Science (Wuhan, China), 2012
Yinggehai (莺歌海) basin and Jiyang (济阳) depression experienced similar tectonic evolution, which is mainly controlled by the strike-slip faults. The strike pull-apart basins are characteristic by multiple deposition cycles, migration of deposition and subsidence center, and diversity depositional systems.

Heat flow and thermal modeling of the Yinggehai Basin, South China Sea

Tectonophysics, 2002
Abstract Geothermal gradients are estimated to vary from 31 to 43 °C/km in the Yinggehai Basin based on 99 temperature data sets compiled from oil well data. Thirty-seven thermal conductivity measurements on core samples were made and the effects of porosity and water saturation were corrected.

A possible mechanism for the initiation of the Yinggehai Basin: A visco-elasto-plastic model

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2013
Abstract The Yinggehai Basin, lying along the trace of the Red River fault zone in the South China Sea, has been related to the movements of the Red River fault zone and the rotation of the Indochina block. However, the tectonic origin of the Yinggehai Basin remains unclear.

Experimental evidence for the dynamics of the formation of the Yinggehai basin, NW South China Sea

Tectonophysics, 2003
Abstract The Yinggehai basin is located on the northwestern shelf of the South China Sea. It is the seaward elongation of the Red River Fault Zone (RRFZ). The orientation and rift shape of the Yinggehai basin are mainly controlled by NW-, NNW- and nearly NS-trending basal faults. The depocenter migrated southeastward when the basin developed.

The Red River Fault zone in the Yinggehai Basin, South China Sea

Tectonophysics, 2009
Abstract The Red River Fault, a major strike-slip fault of onshore Southeast Asia, is suggested to be closely related to the formation of the South China Sea and uplift of the Tibetan plateau, yet published documentation of the offshore segment of the Red River Fault is sparse.

The structure and formation of diapirs in the Yinggehai–Song Hong Basin, South China Sea

Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2011
Abstract The occurrence of shale diapirs in the Yinggehai–Song Hong (YGH–SH) Basin is well documented, as is their association with big petroleum fields. In order to better understand how and why the diapirs form we performed a detailed geophysical analysis using a new regional compilation of high-resolution two- and three-dimensional seismic ...

Mechanism of diapirism and episodic fluid injections in the Yinggehai Basin

Science in China Series D, 2002
The diapirism in the Yinggehai Basin is a combined result of strong overpressure caused by rapid sedimentation of fine-grain sediments and the tensile stress field resulting from right-lateral slip of the boundary-fault. The diapirism showed multiple-stage, episodic nature, and caused intermittent counter-direction onlaps and changes in the thickness ...

Multicomponent seismic exploration in Yinggehai Basin

The Leading Edge, 2002
In Yinggehai Basin, an important area for offshore gas exploration in China, rapid filling and deposition caused undercompaction of a massive layer of mudstone. Several diapiric anticlinal structures formed in the center of this basin under the effect of deep hot fluids, making Yinggehai Basin a favorite area for exploration of oil and gas.

A distinctive hydrocarbon basin—Yinggehai Basin, South China Sea

Journal of Southeast Asian Earth Sciences, 1991
Abstract The Yinggehai basin is a Cenozoic hydrocarbon basin situated on the geosuture of the Indosinian Plate and South China Plate (the Red River Fault Zone). It is a strike-slip tensional basin developed from an unstable craton in the passive continental argin.
