The Proceedings volumes of this seventh conference are therefore a 'must' for every petroleum geoscientist's bookshelf. ... We summarize four emerging concepts in salt tectonics in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, selected from a longer list of concepts that have advanced significantly in the last decade. Squeezed salt stocks are common in ...
Salt tectonics and magmatism are prevalent in many sedimentary basins worldwide. It is thus inevitable that, in some places, magma will interact with salt as it ascends towards the surface. We use 3D seismic reflection data from the Santos Basin, offshore Brazil to examine the interactions between igneous sheet intrusions emplaced below, within ...

9781629810867. ISBN print: 0891813446. Publication date: January 01, 1995. The conceptual breakthroughs in understanding salt tectonics can be recognized by reviewing the history of salt tectonics, which divides naturally into three parts: the pioneering era, the fluid era, and the brittle era. The pioneering era (1856-1933) featured …
Abstract. Scaled physical models illustrate the importance of progradation as a trigger for salt tectonics and formation of allochthonous sheets. Regional extension and contraction were excluded in the models. In our experiments, prograding wedges above a tabular, buoyant salt layer with a flat base expelled the salt basinward, forming the ...
Abstract and Figures. Following common usage, we broaden the term "salt" to include all rock bodies composed primarily of halite (NaCl). Salt is mechanically weak and flows like a fluid, even ...

This three-day international conference aims to bring together leading academic and industry geoscientists to discuss new techniques and case studies, and to capture an up to date assessment of our understanding of salt tectonic processes including: Geographical case studies; e.g. North Sea, Gulf of Mexico, Persian Gulf, Campos Basin.
October 2002. Joseph M. Saenz. The offshore Santa Maria Basin contains two types of hydrocarbon seeps in surficial marine sediments and the water column: active and passive. Active seeps ...
In this paper we study the effects of timing of salt movement and mechanical compaction on the generation of overpressures in Mesozoic rocks. To that end we apply 2D basin modelling on two N-S trending cross sections in the Dutch …
Classic models of gravity‐driven salt tectonics commonly depict kinematically linked zones of overburden deformation, characterised by updip extension and downdip contraction, separated by a weakly deformed zone associated with downdip translation above a relatively smooth base‐salt surface. We use 2D and 3D seismic …
Mr. Rowan holds many years of experience and primary interest with working with the styles and processes of salt tectonics and salt-sediment interaction. Plan on joining us December 8-11 in Houston, Texas at the Norris Conference Center CityCentre for a four day review and understanding of salt tectonics.
ISBN print: 9781862393417. Publication date: January 01, 2012. In this timely volume, geoscientists from both industry and academia present a contemporary view of salt at a global scale. The studies examine the influence of salt on synkinematic sedimentation, its role in basin evolution and tectonics, and ultimately in hydrocarbon prospectivity.
Salt Tectonics, Associated Processes, and Exploration Potential: Revisited: 1989–2019 iii Foreword "It was 20 years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play." Well no, that is not quite correct. Yet it was 30 years ago that the first conference on salt tec-tonics was held as the Tenth Annual GCSSEPM Foundation Research Conference.

[1] The Zagros Mountains result from the ongoing collision between the Arabian and central Iran plates. The main features of the eastern Zagros are (1) numerous emerged or buried salt diapirs, made up of Late Precambrian Hormuz salt and (2) the irregular along-strike shape of the collision-related detachment folds with frequent bending.
