Abstract

The sequence stratigraphic approach for understanding the deposition of litho-stratigraphically designated Dadhar Formation sandwiched in between two maximum flooding surfaces, within the framework of system tracts has been firmed up based on distinct seismic characters. Two members Viz, Amod & Degam Members, have been identified within Dadhar Formation. Amod Member deposited over the Kanwa shale, in high stand system tract under the influence of normal to forced regressive phase. It is composed of alternations of sand & shales in shelf areas in the east. Whereas its equivalent section in the western slope and distal areas is represented by condensed section composed of shale. The Degam Member identified beyond the Dadhar shelf edge as
