    1. The document outlines different structural styles found in petroleum basins and their typical deformational forces, transport modes, and plate tectonic settings. 2. It categorizes styles as either basement-involved or detached, and lists examples like wrench-fault assemblies, compressive faults, and extensional faults as basement-involved, and decollement thrusts and detached normal faults as detached. 3. For each structural style it describes the dominant deformational force, typical transport mode, and primary and secondary plate tectonic habitats where these styles are commonly found.

    *Styles in regions underlain by continental crust are emphasized; see Dickinson (1974) for discussion of most kinds of settings. Nontectonic types
    of drape folds, such as supratenuous or compaction folds, and structures resulting from igneous or metamorphic activity, are excluded.
