This book offers a clear and detailed introduction to the geology of sedimentary basins and petroleum exploration. Successive chapters describe the geodynamic mechanisms that interact on the planet, the formation and main types of sedimentary basins, continental and marine deposition environments, stratigraphic sequences and their transformations during burial, and tectonic deformations. The book concludes with a discussion of the formation of hydrocarbon fields and petroleum systems. In this work, the reader will find the basic concepts and vocabulary of sedimentary geology, along with a presentation of the new ideas that are in current use in petroleum exploration. This abundantly illustrated book will serve as an excellent educational tool and remain a valuable resource and handy reference work in any petroleum geology library.
