Abstract
Sharaf-AG Low Uplift is located in the central area of Nugara Depression in Muglad Basin, Sudan. It has similar faulted system as the other oil and gas rich sub-basin but it doesn’t have much discovery in oil and gas. So the study of tectonic characteristics has been carried. After detailed seismic interpretation and analysis, the traps controlled by the northwest normal fault have a ‘beaded’ distribution characteristic from southwest to northeast under an extensional- torsional stress. And maybe it destroyed the storage of oil and gas in this area.
