Abstract:The lack of data on the complex tectonics of the Qiongdongnan Basin has thus far restricted the understanding of overpressure, deep hydrocarbon, and shallow gas hydrate distribution. In this study, integrated seismic, well, and borehole-test data were combined with basin models to clarify the relationship between tectonic activity and overpressure evolution, as well as potential effects of sub-surface pressure on gas hydrate accumulation. The results show differences in tectonic activity and pressure character… Show more
