INFLUENCE OF THE EVAPORITE FORMATION STRUCTURE ON SALT TECTONICS AND HYDROCARBON TRAPS (BY THE RESULTS OF NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF HALOKINESIS IN THE PRE-CASPIAN) by B. V. Lunev, V. V. Lapkovsky, M. P. Antipov, Y. A. Volozh, I. S. Postnikova

“…Since halokinesis is the main factor controlling the migration and accumulation of hydrocarbons in the Preaspian region, background and aim of prospecting and exploration require identifying the specifics of the formation of various types of salt structures and the relationship between their location patterns and halokinesis process.Numerical simulation shows that, depending on the instable layer thickness and its relationship with the total thickness of the overlying layers, the instability development occurs at different rates, forming different types of structures. …”
