Structural analysis of fault complexes bounding the Halten Terrace, offshore mid-Norway
The mid-Norwegian continental margin that has been tectonically active from Caledonian Orogeny to early Cenozoic time is divided into a number of structural provinces and the main tectonic phases records the transition from rifting to sea-floor spreading between Norway and Greenland in Cenozoic .

| Summary: | The mid-Norwegian continental margin that has been tectonically active from Caledonian Orogeny to early Cenozoic time is divided into a number of structural provinces and the main tectonic phases records the transition from rifting to sea-floor spreading between Norway and Greenland in Cenozoic . Seismic and well data as well as literature studies were used in the structural analysis of fault complexes bounding the Halten Terrace, such as the Vingleia, Bremstein and the Klakk fault complexes and the Kya Fault zone.
