        1 - Feasibility study of influence of Abshirin and Deh-nar fault on salt structure of Nasr-Abad of Kashan In order to establishment of natural gas storage

        In order to balance between gas produce and gas consumption in cold seasons which accounts as peak time, Gasstorage is as fundamental approaches which guarantee gas of country. In this regard, salt structure of Nasr Abadin Kashan has suitable potential and can be used as the largest site of natural gas storage in central Iran scope.Feasibility study with purpose of determining fault mechanism around the salt structure is an essential thing. Inorder to eliminate ambiguities, field operation is with analysis of the structure and kinetic geometry of faults ,right on the diversion channel , analysis of stereo graphic images, gravity interpretations such as documents ofstrike- slip activity with reverse component of Abshirin fault. Abshirin fault with a length of about 10 km, withapproximate distance of 2-3 km in salt structure is depreciated, which stands in a separation about 3.5 km towardDeh-nar fault as right stepping pattern arrangement . According to the obtained results, finally we concluded thatAbshirin faults and Deh-nar faults are not so significant impact on gas storage site. Manuscript profile

        Evaporate basin of North and West of Garmsar, tectonically is an east-west graben that located in thenorth border of central Iran back-arc basin. Garmsar fault as the most important tectonic structure ofthe studied area, trending east-west, is accommodated in north of Garmsar which declines towards thewest and its trend changes to NW-SE. The mentioned fault is a thrust dipping to the north with leftlateral attitude. Considering fracture system of salt structures in the studied area implies on influencingE-W structural trend of Garmsar thrust on salt structures. Garmsar thrust as the principle structure hasthe most important role in upwards movement of upper Eocene-Oligocene salt mass and taking themto the surface. Outcropped evaporate system imply existing a salt nappe aquifer in north of centralIran. Manuscript profile
