HIGH-RESOLUTION 3D SEISMIC INVESTIGATIONS OF HYDRATE-BEARING FLUID-ESCAPE CHIMNEYS IN THE NYEGGA REGION OF THE VØRING PLATEAU, NORWAY

HIGH-RESOLUTION 3D SEISMIC INVESTIGATIONS OF HYDRATE-BEARING FLUID-ESCAPE CHIMNEYS IN THE NYEGGA REGION OF THE VØRING PLATEAU, NORWAY

Hundreds of pockmarks and mounds, which seismic reflection sections show to be underlain by chimney-like structures, exist in southeast part of the Vøring plateau, Norwegian continental margin. These chimneys may be representative of a class of feature of global importance for the escape of methane...
