| Popis: |
Forth Field reservoir sands are of Early Eocene age, and were deposited in a basinal marine setting. The discovery well penetrated alternating sands and muds underlain by 123 m of homogeneous, structureless sands. A conventional depositional model suggested that this stratigraphy was the result of turbidite deposition on a retreating submarine fan. A fundamental problem arose in that the sand envelope defined on seismic data suggested a confined area of sand occurrence which could not have been stable as a mound of unconsolidated sediment on the seafloor. |
