Tectonic evolution of the Colorado Basin, offshore Argentina, inferred from seismo-stratigraphy and depositional rates analysis

Based on a dense 2D seismic reflection dataset and information from 8 exploration wells, we reinterpreted the stratigraphic evolution of the Colorado Basin. The basin is located on the continental shelf and slope within 50 to 2250m of bathymetry. The total sediment fill can be up to 16,000m. Seismic...
