Abstract: Regional analysis of new 2D and 3D multichannel seismic data has improved interpretation of the crustal configuration and structural style along the Norwegian margin. Five domains with different structural styles and evolutions are defined along the outer Voring Basin: (1) the Nyk High-Naglfar Dome; (2) the north Gjallar Ridge; (3) the Gleipne saddle; (4) the south Gjallar Ridge; (5) the Ran ridge. Early Campanian-Early Paleocene and Early to mid-Cretaceous extensional events are evidenced. Timing of deformation and structural styles observed along each segment reflect a lateral variation of the rifted system, probably affected by magma-tectonic processes. Correlation with the ...
