This blog examines some key features of thrust systems with an example from seismic data offshore Namibia and from a hand specimen onshore UK.
This blog looks at joints contained within zones of deformation bands - how they form and if they are important or not.
This blog describes the value of a geomechanical approach to fracture prediction; for example thin beds often have more fractures than thick beds.
This blog looks at some key features of zones of deformation bands. Featured are 2 outcrops of Permian age sandstone from Scotland, UK.
Faults are usually picked on seismic data. Given that small faults can be as important in field development, well logs should be checked for evidence of faulting.
Here we look at common fault-related explanations for thickness variations between wells and how to create a simple cumulative dip plot of bedding to detect faults.
