    Description: We integrate observations of lithospheric extension over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales within the northern North Sea basin and critically review the extent to which existing theories of lithospheric deformation can account for these observations. Data obtained through a prolonged period of hydrocarbon exploration and production has yielded a dense and diverse data set over the entire Viking Graben and its flanking platform areas. These data show how syn-rift accommodation within the basin varied in space and time with sub-kilometer-scale spatial resolution and a temporal resolution of 2–3 Myr. Regional interpretations of 2D seismic reflection, refraction and gravity data for this area have also been published and provide an image of total basin wide stretching for the entire crust. These image data are combined with published strain rate inversion results obtained from tectonic subsidence patterns to constrain the spatio-temporal evolution of strain accumulation throughout the lithosphere during the 40 Myr (170–130 Ma) period of Late Jurassic extension across this basin. For the first 25–30 Myr, strain localisation dominated basin development with strain rates at the eventual rift axis increasing while strain rates over the flanking areas declined. As strain rates across the whole basin were consistently very low (〈 3 × 10- 16 s- l), thermally induced strength loss cannot explain this phenomenon. The strain localisation is manifest in the near-surface by a systematic migration of fault activity. The pattern and timing of this migration are inconsistent with flexural bending stresses exerting an underlying control, especially when estimates of flexural rigidity for this area are considered. The best explanation for what is observed in this time period is a coupling between near-surface strain localisation, driven by brittle (or plastic) failure, and the evolving thermal structure of the lithosphere. We demonstrate this process using a continuum mechanics model for normal fault growth that incorporates the strain rate-dependence of frictional strength observed in laboratory studies. During the final 10 Myr of basin formation, strain accumulation was focused within the axis and strain rates declined rapidly. Replacement of weak crust by stronger mantle material plus crustal buoyancy forces can adequately explain this decline.

    Description: Salt–sediment interplay in the Santos Basin is investigated integrating seismic interpretation, kinematic restoration and analogue modelling. Deformation within the post-salt sequence results from thin-skinned gravitational gliding and spreading, driven primarily by halokinesis, greatly affected by massive sediment inflows. The impressive landward-dipping listric Cabo Frio Fault controls the major depocentres updip, whereas salt-cored folds accommodate downdip shortening. Sediment supply from confluent directions creates a complex interference pattern of superposed folds with intervening polygonal minibasins. A new structure is identified (termed the ‘Ilha Grande Gravitational Cell’), a linked system of updip extension and downdip contraction detached on salt, comprising the Cabo Frio Fault and minibasins. It moves to the SE, with eastern and western borders suggesting lateral gradients of slippage. This thin-skinned feature results from the differential load imposed by a thick prograding wedge over the ductile salt and is independent of pre-salt structures. The post-salt sequence moves basinwards due to halokinesis, thereby changing position relative to the pre-salt sequence, which implies that any present-day correspondence between pre- and post-salt structures may not attest to linkage in the past. Application of kinematic restoration techniques allows the true position and geometry of the key elements through time, improving petroleum systems assessment.

    Description: Exploration well 50/26b-6 in the UK Southern North Sea discovered a trap containing a gas-bearing Rotliegend Group (Leman Sandstone Formation) reservoir which was a major surprise at the time of drilling in that its gas composition was approximately 50% CO2 (with 9% N2 and the remainder methane). Christened the Fizzy Discovery', the accumulation was appraised by well 50/26b-8. Subsequently, another CO2-rich discovery (Oak) was made along-strike in nearby block 54/1b. Column heights at the well locations are of the order of a few tens of metres, but at the Fizzy Discovery the column height at the trap crest is estimated to be over 200 m. Interpretation of a high fidelity PSTM 3D seismic dataset has been constrained by 33 exploration wells allowing fault geometries and stratigraphic offsets to be determined with confidence. Despite late-stage (Late Cretaceous) structural inversion, the net boundary-fault offset is sufficient in both the Fizzy and Oak discoveries to almost breach the Zechstein Group evaporite super-seal, and the CO2-bearing Rotliegend Group in the footwall is now juxtaposed against hanging wall sediments of the uppermost Zechstein Group. Hence, these Zechstein Group units evidently act as a robust long-term side-seal for the carbon dioxide column. The Fizzy and Oak accumulations are noteworthy in providing a natural demonstration of top seal and fault side-seal integrity for carbon dioxide in a subsurface reservoir, that has remained intact over a geological timescale in what is otherwise a prolific methane-rich reservoir play fairway.

    Description: A detailed seismic stratigraphic interpretation of a previously unpublished, well-calibrated 3D seismic volume and regional 2D seismic lines in the Northern Porcupine Basin, west of Ireland has provided significant insights into the basin development, sedimentary fill and petroleum prospectivity within this area of the Irish Atlantic continental margin. The results of the seismic interpretation presented here provide a detailed description of the evolution of the Connemara discovery and have resulted in a revised model for the tectonic development and stratigraphic evolution of the fault block structure containing the oil accumulation. The new seismic stratigraphic analysis also provides the basis for an alternative interpretation of Early Cretaceous ‘clinoform’ features based on the results of the 3D seismic interpretation which supports a genesis through structural rotation of onlapping horizons rather than depositional downlap favoured by previous interpretations. This new-found structural and stratigraphic understanding not only has significant implications for determining the main controls on the Connemara discovery, but also provides a basis upon which to place other prospective structures in their regional context, including the identification and risking of exploration plays and prospects in the area.

    Description: Interpretation and depth conversion of an extensive, well-calibrated seismic database provide the basis upon which to map the limits and evaluate the geologic risks of using a saline aquifer target for carbon dioxide ([Formula: see text]) storage in the Moray Firth Basin of the North Sea. The seismic interpretation demonstrates that the Lower Cretaceous (Albian-Aptian) Captain Sandstone Member is a continuous, interconnected reservoir that rises to subcrop in the western areas of the basin as a consequence of Early Cenozoic uplift and tilt. As such, the aquifer forms an open system with few barriers or sizable closures to arrest or entrap light fluids and gases en route to its western subcrop. The new interpretation also indicates that the saline aquifer is cut by several west-southwest/east-northeast-striking reactivated normal faults. Although migration along the faults permitted hydrocarbons to get into structurally elevated traps, such as the Captain Field itself, some faults also breach the seal of the Captain Sandstone Member aquifer, rise to the seabed, and increase the risk of seabed leakage. Consequently, despite its large storage capacity, the dip, subcrop, and fault reactivation affecting the Captain Sandstone Member aquifer all suggest that its use as a site for [Formula: see text] storage remains unproven and is not the best choice for an initial North Sea exemplar. As such, the study highlights the importance of undertaking a robust and forensic geologic screening of any prospective storage site prior to injection.
