Abstract(s)
Assuming that the understanding of tectonics and structural evolution allows geologists, and particularly
seismic interpreters, to propose a priori interpretations in compressional areas, where the quality of
seismic data is poor, the main geological concepts of Southern Rocky Mountains are review. Indeed, in
this particular area, a priori knowledge, which contrasts with empiric knowledge (derived from sensorial
experience), is absolutely necessary to interpret the seismic lines and so predict the more likely location
of the exploration wells.
