Structural styles in petroleum geology
Book
·
OSTI ID:6110134
This is directed specifically to the petroleum explorationist. The ten fact-filled chapters analyze the structural styles that may be used in the exploration for oil and gas in terms of mechanics of deformation, profile and plan expression of both surface and subsurface, seismic expression, producing examples and plate tectonic processes and habitats. The extensive use of illustrations increases the everyday use and teaching applications of this new book. The contents are: Structural styles; wrench assemblage; compressive and basement thrusts; extensional fault blocks; warps-arches, domes, and sags; thrust-fold belt assemblage; normal-fault assemblage; salt structures; shale structures and superposed styles.
