Thesis Abstract

Abstract

This research focuses on seismic imaging of salt diapirs, geological structures formed by the upward movement of salt layers due to their buoyancy within sedimentary basins. The study aims to understand the internal geometry and characteristics of salt diapirs using seismic reflection data, analyze their role in controlling subsurface deformation and fluid migration, and evaluate their significance for hydrocarbon exploration and reservoir characterization.
