Abstract This thesis focuses on establishing a causal relationship between potential fluid sources, fluid migration pathways, shallow gas accumulations and potential gas hydrates in the western part of the Hammerfest Basin, SW Barents Sea. Two 3D seismic surveys (LN0901 and ST8320R00) were used to m...
