A review of fault sealing behaviour and its evaluation in siliciclastic rocks

Y Pei, DA Paton, RJ Knipe, K Wu - Earth-Science Reviews, 2015 - Elsevier
Faults can be either conduits or retarders for fluid flow. As the presence of faults increases
the risks for hydrocarbon exploration, the sealing behaviour of a fault zone has been a focus …
