Abstract

Summary

Fault seal studies of the Penobscot Fault, offshore Nova Scotia, and the Cape Egmont Fault, offshore New Zealand, are used here as examples to demonstrate a new method of modelling uncertainty in fault seal analysis techniques and therefore reducing risk associated with studies of this nature.
