Abstract

The inversion in South Cambay Basin is attributed to multi-phase tectonic evolutions, which include extension with syn-rift deposits from Late Cretaceous to Lower Early Eocene, thermal sag with subsidence from Lower Early Eocene to Miocene and a Post- Miocene to Recent period of folding, fault reactivation, structural inversion and erosion. The inversion structures as interpreted in the Basin are classified as positive inversion styles
