Description
Structural geology plays a critical role in oil and gas exploration by analyzing how geological structures like anticlines, fault blocks, and thrust belts create hydrocarbon traps. Identifying these traps ensures efficient exploration. Techniques include field mapping, seismic interpretation, and remote sensing. Tectonic studies help determine the history of subsurface movements, fault reactivation, and stress fields that influence reservoir continuity. Digital modeling and software-based structural reconstructions enhance predictions of fracture distribution and permeability variations, optimizing drilling strategies.
