Abstract

Syndepositional structure is mainly formed under the action of fault activity and sedimentary filling and compaction, and developed in the extensional normal fault descending wall in the tension field environment. In this paper, the concept, formation and development of syngenic structures are described, and the influence and significance of synsedimentary compaction structures on oil and gas are explored.

Keywords
