Abstract

Tectonics deals with deformation of the earth and its evolution in time in response to geologic stress and plays a major role in hydrocarbon exploration. An assortment of structures and deformations associated with different stress regimes, show typical manifestations in seismic data that can be conveniently picked. A brief description of such common geologic structures resulting from each of the stress regimes and their easy recognition on seismic data are outlined, exemplified by seismic images and graphic illustrations.
