f The Rif Domain-Inversion Effects on Petroleum Systems

P011 THE RIF DOMAIN-INVERSIONEFFECTS ON PETROLEUM SYSTEMS Abstract The scope covers the Rif and the Atlas Belts with the adjoining Eastern Meseta. 1 After Triassic-Liassic Rifting Alpine Inversion occurred due to African and European Collision. Subsequently the Rif in the North was thrusted southward along Salt Decollement Surface. This formed numerous duplexes and imbricate structures that provide folds and sub thrust traps. The Atlas troughs were inverted into intracontinental chains with low-angle thrust traps along the edges of this chain. In the Meseta decollement within upper Salt created Jurassic structures decoupled from Paleozoic-Triassic ones. This inversion caused Jurassic facies exposure
