We are indebted to Sabine Krauss, manager of Geoprep, for providing financial support and
assistance in the early research work. The paper benefited from constructive discussions
with M. Eugenia Arribas, Chris Carr, Mateu Esteban, Nieves López-Martínez, Fabián
López-Olmedo, Xabier Orue-Etxeberria, Eduard Remacha, and Jesús G. Senz. Steven Robinson
reviewed and improved earlier versions of the manuscript. AAPG reviewers Toni Simó,
Berend van Hoorn, and especially William Devlin are acknowledged. We are also grateful to
Repsol Exploration SA for providing subsurface data. Field research was partly financed by
the project DGICYT PB95-0398 of the Spanish Ministry of Education and Science. This paper
is dedicated to the memory of George P. Allen. ABSTRACT
During the initial stage of the evolution of the South Pyrenean foreland basin in the
Late Cretaceous, foreland shortening resulted in the development of a major thrust sheet
consisting of three main fold-thrust uplifts. As a consequence, the basin was segmented
into uplift-bounded depocenters (minibasins) that were contemporaneously filled with
basin-fill successions of prograding siliciclastics.
