MASSIVE DEFORMATION BANDS ASSOCIATED WITH SINGLE DETACHMENT PLANES Zone of interest All of these well locations and depths correspond to official fault previously interpreted as individual faults. Our 3-D analysis indicates that these fault cut-outs are on a few low angle planes Low angle reverse faults associated with the general folding Stylolite seam Horsetail stylolite seams Note the fairly constant thickness of the deformation band Systematic features -Oil bearing porous sands -Very sharp boundary -Quartz cemented tight sands -Slickenside lower boundary The cored well shows diagenetically altered sandstones regularly spaced. The selected photos show the systematic existence of a slickenside below a tight sandstone with prominent quartz cement. Dissolution features are common and includes stylolites and horsetail stylolites. Ramp and flat slickenside and stylolites Parallel to bedding Step ladder pattern showing a succession of flats and ramps PDVSA
