Figure 3-5. Extensional and compressional features in the Ishpingo, Tiputini and Tambococha (ITT) structure. The compressional stress field reactivated moderately dipping pre-existing listric faults. Oil-bearing structures (Ishpingo, Tiputini, Tambococha and Capiron) are faulted anticlines associated with tectonic inversion. The last compressional event was in Late Tertiary. Small right-lateral strike-slip movement is thought to have occurred along the fault.
