This book studies the depositional evolution of the subsurface Neogene - Quaternary sediments and their hydrocarbon prospects using sequence stratigraphic analyses for the north-central part of the Nile Delta Basin. The examined sedimentary succession has been subdivided into syn-rift and post-rift megasequences based on seismic sequence stratigraphy. The distribution of the late Miocene normal faulting within the syn-rift megasequence suggests the NNW propagation of the Gulf of Suez Rift. However, the post-rift megasequence represents prograding deltaic sedimentary succession deposited during highly fluctuated relative sea level.
