Philippines Offshore

West Palawan Offshore

The seismic line of this Canvas autotrace is located in the continental North Palawan Block (see Page 1). The well drilled to test a reefal anomaly of the sag phase of the backarc basin, which was stopped in the continental crust (basement), allow to calibrated the unconformities bounding the upper stratigraphic sequence-cycles (SB. 1.6 Ma / SB. 3.8 Ma ; SB. 3.8 Ma / SB. 5.5 Ma), in the Non Atlantic-Type divergent margin, induced by 3^th order eustatic cycles , and the main continental encroachment stratigraphic sub-cycles induced by 2^sd order eustatic cycles, in the backarc basin (SB. 5.5 Ma / SB. 10.5 Ma ; SB. 10.5 Ma / SB. 13.8 Ma ; SB. 13.8 Ma / SB. 21 Ma ; SB. 21 Ma / SB. 25.5 Ma ; SB. 25.5Ma / SB. 30 Ma and SB. 30 Ma / SB. 68 Ma).
