Summary
This study comprises a sequence stratigraphic interpretation of the post-rift Tertiary succession in the Offshore Indus.
Ten mixed carbonate and siliciclastic sequence have been interpreted in the Tertiary succession, bounded by eleven unconformities. Five unconformities are angular in position with significant erosion along the outer shelf and slope areas showing particular events of eustasy and tectonism.
