Exploration for petroleum requires much data, and the principles with which to interpret them. Because well and seismic data are extremely expensive in fold and thrust belts, application of simply geometric principles can multiply the effectiveness of geological and geophysical interpretations. This book contains seven chapters covering thrust faults, generation of folds, and thrust and fold time and sequence from the geometric perspective.
