Abstract

Previous HitPetroleumNext Hit Systems are currently being studied within the general framework of plate tectonics. This new approach has led to the definition of three types of Previous HitsystemNext Hit in the context of the dynamic evolution of sedimentary basins. These three types are "initial rift", "continental platform", and "orogenic-deltaic" Previous HitPetroleumNext Hit Systems. The richness and efficiency of a petroliferous basin often depends on an association between two, or perhaps all three, of these types of Previous HitsystemTop. Foreland basins are perhaps the best example.
