Abstract
Kali and Kuthalam fields are located on the sloping part of eastern flank (footwall) of the Kumbakonam ridge in Cauvery basin. During synrift marine transgression, Aptian-Barremian shale is the earliest sediment to deposit on the basement in this area. Arenaceous sediments of Albian-Aptian age of Upper Andimadam Formation marks the rift climax.
