Identify the geographical distribution of thinning/thickening of packages relative to the position of the salt diapers,
BASIN ANALYSIS ASSESSED EXERCISE ON SALT BASIN EVOLUTION
Salt tectonics play a major role in many sedimentary basins. In the Central European basin, salt has formed a large number of salt walls, diapers and pillows during long periods of salt tectonic activity. Major changes in sedimentation patterns and structural
regimes are common. The practical involves the interpretation of four seismic profiles that cross one another, creating a grid. The overall objectives are to map out distinctive sedimentary (acoustic) faces, interpret the de-positional architecture, and evaluate the controls on the basin margin development.
1) Map the fault network,
2) Map the salt bodies,
3) Identify de-positional packages,
4) Mark nonconformist,
5) Identify the geographical distribution of thinning/thickening of packages relative to the position of the salt diapers,
6) Highlight per-salt, syn-salt and post-salt sequences
