Product Description: Intraplate strike-slip deformation belts are common tectonic features, particularly at convergent plate boundaries, where they are produced by both oblique convergence and continental indentation. These lithosphere-scale structures, which also occur in other geodynamic environments such as passive margins, are characterized by complex structural architectures, by the occurrence of large earthquakes, and by the fast uplift and/or subsidence of localized crustal sectors...read more

Product Description: Commercial oil deposits in basement rocks are not geological 'accidents' but are oil accumulations which obey all the rules of oil sourcing, migration and entrapment; therefore in areas of not too deep basement, oil deposits within basement rocks should be explored with the same professional skill and zeal as accumulations in the overlying sediments, Landes et al...read more

Product Description: This publication introduces the newly developed, integrated discipline of fracture and in-situ stress characterization of hydrocarbon reservoirs, through 16 well-illustrated case studies. These cover a wide range of tools, from borehole scale (logs and core) to reservoir scale (e...read more

Product Description: This title has arisen from the Geological Society of London conference of the same name. Since the publication of the predecessor of this book (Modern insights into structural interpretation, validation and modelling, SP99, 1996, edited by Buchanan & Nieuwland) much progress has been made...read more
