Figure 28.
Burial history curves highlighting the variation in subsidence history seen in areas affected by Mesozoic rifting (e.g., Sole Pit) and the intrabasinal highs (e.g., Inde and Cleaver Bank high), the differences between which control compaction, diagenesis, and hence, the porosity and permeability of the reservoir. Subsidence histories adapted from Glennie et al. (1978) and Green (2005). MOD. RES. = moderate reservoir.
