... Abstract The Liwan 3–1 gas field, situates in block 29/26 with an average water depth of 1,300m, represents the first major deepwater discovery in the South China Sea. The development scenario of Liwan 3–1 indicates potentially an efficient way for those gas fields around the continental slope...

... Abstract The offshore industry is moving to deeper water, along or in the proximity of the continental slopes. In such environments the geo-hazard assessment for offshore installations is crucial engineering activity. It requires, since the early stage of the project, a sequence of dedicated...

... Abstract The northern Gulf of Mexico continental slope is the most thoroughly imaged and studies continental slope in today's oceans. The entire slope is covered with 3D-seismic and much of the area has been imaged with higher resolution acoustic systems. These data describe a complex seafloor...

Once the characteristic dimensional and spatial variability is determined, we can examine the regional physiography to surmise the processes that shape the bathymetry, and predict the occurrence of future mass-wasting...

... of Pascagoula, MS, on the continental slope of the northern Gulf of Mexico (Figure 1). Water depths range from 820 - 990m. The topography of the continental slope in the northern Gulf is dominated by salt features including diapirs, salt ridges, and minibasins. The sea-floor slopes generally to the southeast...

... Abstract Exploration programs that rely on the bottom simulating reflector as the primary hydrate marker may be missing significant accumulations of gas hydrate on continental slopes. I propose that, in at least some reservoirs, gas hydrate forms primarily as dikes, which are not imaged...
