This research employs a multiscale approach that integrates outcrop studies with seismic reflection data to investigate the attributes of fault damage zones affecting porous sandstones. We provide an in-depth understanding of the 3D fault zone volume, investigating correlations between geometric attributes of faults (width of damage zone, frequency of subsidiaries structures, and fault termination) in the outcrop and the fault throw in the subsurface, with insights from deformation mechanisms within the fault zone. The methods encompass 1D scanlines to constrain the damage zone width on the outcrop. At the same time, the subsurface analysis uses 3D seismic data, seismic attributes, and deep learning neural network (DNN) fault volumes to interpret fault geometries and quantify fault throws at different depths. Results show that the area presents a complex fault zone with multiple fault sets, deformation bands, and fracture corridors trending mainly NE-SW, NW-SE, and E-W. The integration of surface and subsurface fault data enabled the identification of two portions in each fault set outcropping at the fault tip for E-W/ESE-WNW-striking faults and the central part of the fault for NE-SW-striking faults. Faults with the greatest length do not outcrop with the largest damage zone width since they are outcropping the tip of the fault.

Continental margins active during ARMO uplifts have been subsequently modified or destroyed, and direct evidence for the styles of coeval tectonism obscured by later deformation, especially within the western Cordillera. Thus, there is a sustained history of workers attempting to deduce the tectonic state of late Paleozoic Laurentian margins from the characteristics of recognized uplifts. Here, using a 3D Finite Element Method (FEM) we show that it is necessary to consider the complete picture of continental fringing tectonism to understand how the intracontinental stress field could be compatible with the ARMO uplifts. Of the preexisting models tested, the model including a transform boundary on the western continental margin is most consistent with ARMO uplifts. A new tectonism model is derived including a left-lateral transtensional boundary on the Laurentian western margin and a refined compressional history along the Appalachian-Marathon margin.

It is particularly prominent in the SW Scandinavian Caledonides, where extensional detachments formed progressively from the initial reactivation of the basal thrust zone to the formation of hinterland-dipping extensional shear zones. A mature stage, documented here, involves the development of bivergent (both hinterland- and foreland-dipping) shear zones and associated vertical basement mobilization. The main foreland-facing extensional shear zone in the study area is the Bergen Detachment – an until recently overlooked or misinterpreted structure. This detachment overprints top-to-W mylonitic fabrics related to the earlier Devonian extension stages and developed in response to the updoming of the Baltica basement west of Bergen (the Øygarden Complex) into a late core complex. Our microstructural and textural examinations suggest that for both the Hardangerfjord Shear Zone and the Bergen Detachment, strain was localized by activation of dislocation creep in quartz through the operation of multiple slip systems in the &lt;a&gt; direction, predominantly prism &lt;a&gt; and rhomb &lt;a&gt;. These examinations and existing radiometric age constraints suggest that the progressive shear zone development occurred over maybe as little as 5 million years, under upper to middle greenschist facies conditions. Synkinematic cooling brought both the Bergen Detachment and Hardangerfjord Shear Zone through the ductile-brittle transition zone. The main explanation for this prolonged collapse development is 1) that the early low-angle detachment became too low-angle for continued shearing, giving rise to the first hinterland-dipping set of shear zones, and 2) that the basement weakened rheologically and mobilized gravitationally with the formation of large upright folds with new detachments along their flanks (the bivergent stage), including the Bergen Detachment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50035,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Geology","volume":"189 ","pages":"Article 105274"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142533889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we integrated remote sensing image analysis, field measurements, and core sample testing to evaluate the characteristics and controlling factors of carbonate reservoir spaces within the Middle and Lower Triassic formations along a regional strike-slip fault in the Qingjiang region of China. The strike-slip fault zone is composed of multiple fault cores and damage zones. Based on differences in damage zone width and linear fault density, the fault zone was subdivided into transtensional and transpressional segmentations. The carbonate reservoirs, primarily developed within the damage zones, consist of fractures, fracture clusters, and cavities. Detailed measurements of the carbonate outcrops were conducted to obtain geometric parameters of the reservoir spaces. Quantitative results indicate that in the transtensional segmentation, the reservoir is dominated by tensile fracture-cavity systems, characterized by larger fracture apertures (0.13–1.25 m), higher linear fracture density (0.38–8.37 m⁻¹), and well-developed cavities (0.03–4.84 m²), which contribute to better fluid connectivity and storage capacity. In contrast, the transpressional segmentation is dominated by compressional fracture-fracture cluster systems, with longer fractures (0.11–12.52 m), smaller fracture apertures (0.01–0.94 m), and extensive fracture clusters development (0.18–17.87 m²), but with lower fluid connectivity and limited storage capacity. Mechanical testing results show that the average compressive strength in the transtensional segmentation (133.95 MPa) is significantly higher than that in the transpressional segmentation (70.28 MPa). In terms of mineral composition, the transtensional segmentation has a higher calcite content, whereas the transpressional segmentation is richer in dolomite and quartz. Based on the observed differences in reservoir space characteristics across the strike-slip fault zone, we discussed the combined effects of structural segmentation, formation thickness, rock mechanics, and brittle mineral content on reservoir space development. The study emphasizes that stress conditions (primary factor) and material properties (secondary factor) jointly control fluid migration and storage efficiency in the reservoirs. Additionally, we suggest that the outcrop studies in the Qingjiang region provide valuable geological analogs for faulted karst reservoirs, offering critical insights for improving the precision of carbonate reservoir exploration and optimizing production efficiency.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50035,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Geology","volume":"189 ","pages":"Article 105273"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142446498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Usually, high permeability zones and fractures are not easily recognized in seismic data due to limited resolution and they are often associated with higher concentrations of hydrocarbons or even significant fluid losses during drilling, thus creating a challenge for hydrocarbon exploration. In the Santos Basin, southeast Brazil, the pre-salt carbonate reservoirs from the Barra Velha Formation (BVE) are the main hydrocarbon producers in Brazilian Atlantic margin and well-known for being extremely heterogeneous, exhibiting complex dual-porosity systems. In this study, we built a conceptual model of these fracture zones and non-matrix porosity formation that helped narrowing the understanding of these complex systems. The characterization of faults and fractures was carried out using seismic, well-logs, and borehole image data to understand the influence of these structures in the porosity formation along the Barra Velha Formation. In the study area, three fault sets were defined (F&lt;sub&gt;1&lt;/sub&gt;, F&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;, and F&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;) from seismic data.

The natural open fractures were formed during the reactivation of rift faults and are oriented mainly NW, NNE-NNW, NE, and ENE and were identified across the entire study area, but with different intensity values.
