f Structural Controls on Hydrocarbon Migration & Accumulation: An Example Form the Muglad Basin, Sudan

The Muglad Rift Basin of the interior Sudan forms an important part of the West and Central African Rift System. It is characterized by thick non-marine clastic sequences of Late Jurassic/Early Cretaceous to Tertiary age. So far, well penetration is restricted to the Tertiary section in the deepest parts of the basin. However, more than 15 km of sedimentary section have been inferred from seismic data in the main trough.
