Erik D. Scott will present an in-depth look at the study team’s findings at the AAPG annual meeting in Denver.

His paper, “Revealing Regional Deep-Water Gulf of Mexico Seafloor Features Through 3-D Seismic,” will be presented at 10:40 a.m. Monday, June 4.

Scott’s co-authors are Frank Peel and Carl Taylor, both with BHP Petroleum, and William Bryant with the Department of Oceanography, Texas A&M.

Furrow development in the Gulf of Mexico is identified by the deep-tow survey results over the Bryant Fan.
