TLDR
Zouaghi et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the limites paleogeographiques prefigurant l'archipel de Kasserine and correspondant a des couloirs de failles majeures N120 and N180 a intrusions saliferes triasiques, associees a d'autres failles decrochantes N90 and N60.

2D Seismic interpretation of strike-slip faulting, salt tectonics, and Cretaceous unconformities, Atlas Mountains, central Tunisia

TL;DR: In this article, the Cretaceous deposits in central Tunisia blocks were studied by sequence stratigraphy, 2D seismic interpretation calibrated to the well and associated outcrop data, and constructing and comparing histories of the northern and southern blocks of the Gafsa master fault was the establishment of platform to basin stratigraphic configuration based on the major unconformity surfaces.

Analysis of Cretaceous (Aptian) strata in central Tunisia, using 2D seismic data and well logs

TL;DR: In this article, a structural and depositional model of lower Cretaceous (Aptian) strata in central Tunisia is presented, using detailed facies relations in outcrops, seismic reflection data, and wells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tectono-sedimentary events and geodynamic evolution of the Mesozoic and Cenozoic basins of the Alpine Margin, Gulf of Tunis, north-eastern Tunisia offshore

TL;DR: In this article, the structural pattern, tectono-sedimentary framework and geodynamic evolution for Mesozoic and Cenozoic deep structures of the Gulf of Tunis (north-eastern Tunisia) are proposed using petroleum well data and a 2-D seismic interpretation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seismic sequence stratigraphy, basin structuring, and hydrocarbon implications of Cretaceous deposits (Albian–Maastrichtian) in central Tunisia

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the Albian-Maastrichtian successions of the central and southern Atlas Mountains of Tunisia using seismic data, complemented by well and outcrop information.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autochthonous versus allochthonous Upper Triassic evaporites in the Sbiba graben, central Tunisia

TL;DR: In this paper, two-dimensional seismic data and well data from the Sbiba graben in central Tunisia (North Africa) reveal its asymmetrical structural geometry affected by E-W, N-S, NW-SE, and NE-SW master strike-slip faults.

Tectonic evolution of the northern African margin in Tunisia from paleostress data and sedimentary record

TL;DR: In this paper, a reconstruction of the tectonic evolution of the northern African margin in Tunisia since the Late Permian combining paleostress, stratigraphic and sedimentary approaches allows the characterization of several major periods corresponding to consistent stress patterns.

L'évolution tectonique de l'avant-pays de la chaîne alpine de Tunisie du début du Mésozoïque à l'Actuel

TL;DR: In this paper, the Methode de l'Inversion des donnees sur les systemes de failles (Carey & Brunier 1974; Carey 1976) is used to define the champs de contraintes regionaux a different epoques.

Stratigraphie séquentielle et paléogéographie à la limite Cénomanien-Turonien dans la région de Gafsa-Chotts (Tunisie centrale)

TL;DR: In this article, a succession chronostratigraphique fiable des different termses lithologiques situes pres de la limite Cenomanien-Turonien of the region of Gafsa-Chotts and en particulier the position of Anhydrites Beida was proposed.

L'halocinèse en Tunisie : contexte tectonique et chronologie des événements

N. Boukadi, +1 more
TL;DR: Mapping of the series in immediate contact with the Triassic and analysis of the tectonic context reveal evidence of seven halokinetic pulsations; the oldest one dates back to the Late Jurassic as discussed by the authors.
