Formation of linear planform chimneys controlled by preferential hydrocarbon leakage and anisotropic stresses in faulted fine-grained sediments, offshore Angola
<p>A new type of gas chimney exhibiting an unconventional linear planform is found. These chimneys are termed <q>Linear Chimneys</q>, which have been observed in 3-D seismic data offshore of Angola. Linear Chimneys occur parallel to adjacent faults, often within preferentially o...
