Mud volcanoes can be large and long lived geological structures that morphologically resemble magmatic volcanoes. Because of their capricious behaviour and their spectacular morphology and landscapes, mud volcanoes have attracted attention since antiquity. More recently, mud volcanoes have become the focus of extensive studies for natural science research, including geologists and biologists. M...

Understanding the structural style, kinematic process, and timing of superimposed structures worldwide is often difficult due to complex structure deformation process. Fortunately, newly acquired high-quality seismic reflection data geological observations covering Tongnanba anticline provide an excellent chance characterize such structures. Here, we used from region evaluate style sequence ant...

Abstract Many features indicative of natural gas and oil leakage are delineated in the deep-water Orange Basin offshore South Africa using 3D reflection seismic data. These influenced by translational compressional domains an underlying Upper Cretaceous fold-and-thrust belt (DWFTB) system detaching Turonian shales. The origin hydrocarbons is postulated to be from both: (a) thermogenic sources s...

Faihaa Oilfield is a new exploration Iraqi located in southern Iraq and within Mesopotamian Plain, including the Block 9 area, along Iraqi-Iranian border. The study area included (in Iraq) Yadavaran Iran). They belong to one anticline (Dome) structure separated by border, without geological boundary between fields. current aims achieve structural geology analysis (Faihaa/Yadavaran structure). g...
