Modeling Near Surface, Gas-Induced Seafloor Deformation Using Thin Plate Mechanics in the Thunder Horse Oil Field, Gulf of Mexico and Ninilchik Field, Cook Inlet Basin, Alaska
Seabed topographic expressions such as pockmarks and domes caused by the vertical migration and accumulation of methane are found in muddy, cohesive sea beds around the world. These surface features range from 10-1000 m in diameter and 1-20 m in relief (Judd and Hovland, 2007). The mechanics of soft...
