Gulf of Mexico Salt Tectonics, Associated Processes and Exploration Potential

Beginning with the basics, the opening session deals with the origin of the Gulf of Mexico and the extent of salt in the basin. Successive sessions deal respectively with regional salt structure, mechanics and internal characteristics of salt, salt sheets, and finally, the interaction of salt and other sediments. The concluding panel discussion, if past experience is indicative, will produce provocative interchanges helpful to the ultimate objective.
