Abstract

Palinspastic restorations elucidate geologic and hydrocarbon-migration histories in salt provinces; however, salt dissolution and salt flow in and out of the section plane make it difficult to determine the shape of salt bodies before deformation, which hampers accurate restorations. Three-dimensional computer visualization of a physical model and analysis of isochores provide clues to the original shape of allochthonous salt bodies that were emplaced during extension and later compressed.
