Solander Trough is located offshore and south of Fiordland, New Zealand, adjacent to the geologically young Pacific-Australian plate boundary. Petroleum industry exploration was restricted to the near-shore. This thesis presents the first stratigraphic analysis of Solander Trough south of ~46.5°S, u...
