Abstract

The correlation of seafloor features identified on multibeam bathymetry data with subsurface fluid flow pathways interpreted from seismic data provides insights into the nature of fluid flow mechanisms and seal integrity in the Capel and Faust basins. The magmatism and fluid flow activity have implications for petroleum prospectivity of the Capel and Faust basins. Hydrocarbon accumulations that may have formed within the deeper syn-rift and the pre-rift sections are less likely to have been affected by the Cenozoic magmatic and fluid flow processes and, therefore, may represent lower-risk exploration targets.
