SCHEMATIC GEOLOGICAL SECTION ACROSS NAGA SCHUPPEN ZONE (NSZ) AND THE ASSAM ARAKAN FOLD BELT (AAFB)
Section shows following structural features : I. Extension of Assam shelf beneath NSZ. This subthrust section is envisaged to contain several potential structural traps. II. Imbricate thrust system of NSZ. Thrust slices are expected to contain oil accumulations as in Digboi & Kharsang fields. III. Gentle folding in the belt of Central Disang. Intra-formational sandstone layers are envisaged to contain hydrocarbons in strati-structural traps.
