Abstract:
Seismic
and Landsat in a
Wrench Faulting System
Seismic
and Landsat in a
Wrench Faulting SystemBy
Three high-multiplicity
seismic
profiles demonstrate
the compressional nature of the faulting along the Double
Mountain lineament in northeast Garza County in the
Permian Basin. NASA high-altitude imagery using Landsat
parameters delineate the traces of these faults on the
surface.
Both east-west and north-south
seismic
profiles define
the Double Mountain Lineament and the associated faulting.
A one-mile-wide pop-up block bound by high-angle reverse
faults demonstrates the compressional nature of the
faulting. This structure has been drilled with several Strawn
and Ellenburger producers, confirming the
seismic
, high-altitude
imagery, and subsurface interpretation.
