A diapir (/ˈdaɪ.əpɪər/;French, from Greekdiapeirein, to pierce through) is a type of geologic intrusion in which a more mobile and ductily deformable material is forced into brittle overlying rocks. Depending on the tectonic environment, diapirs can range from idealized mushroom-shaped Rayleigh–Taylor-instability-type structures in regions with low tectonic stress such as in the Gulf of Mexico to narrow dikes of material that move along tectonically induced fractures in surrounding rock. The term was introduced by the RomaniangeologistLudovic Mrazek, who was the first to understand the principle of salt intrusion and plasticity. The term "diapir" may be applied to igneous structures, but it is more commonly applied to non-igneous, relatively cold materials, such as salt domes and mud diapirs.
In addition to Earth-based observations, diapirism is thought to occur on Neptune's moon Triton, Jupiter's moon Europa, Saturn's moon Enceladus, and Uranus's moon Miranda.
Diapirs commonly intrude vertically upward along fractures or zones of structural weakness through denser overlying rocks because of density contrast between a less dense, lower rock mass and overlying denser rocks. The density contrast manifests as a force of buoyancy. The process is known as diapirism. The resulting structures are also referred to as piercement structures.

Geological technicalities of Underground Energy Storage Systems in Salt Diapirs
More than ever large scale strategic energy storage systems will be playing a key role in providing affordable and stable energy prices while avoiding future geopolitical conflicts.
Whatever the energy source, Natural gas, Hydrogen or Electricity, these can be safely and reliably stored in underground energy storage systems. The most common method is to create large caverns inside mountains of buried salt, so called Salt Diapirs.
Frequently these salt structures are thought to be homogenous, and therefore geotechnically hazard free. But in reality salt diapirs are slightly more complex. And each structure is unique.
Salt structures can present thick carbonate and clastic sequences at their base or interbedded, critically reducing available storage space.
Salt diapirs can be intrude...

Salt structures can present thick carbonate and clastic sequences at their base or interbedded, critically reducing available storage space.
Salt diapirs can be intruded by volcanic rocks which can create drilling hazards and permeability issues.
Salt domes are usually capped and surrounded by gypsum breccias that can constrains both storage volumes and feasibility of energy storage projects.
Thick salt sequences are also commonly composed by layer evaporitic sequences with contrasting rheologies that can compromise drilling and seal integrity of an ideal storage salt cavern.
These are some of the geological features that most geoengineering teams are commonly unaware when planing such underground storage facilities.
Come with Geo Logica to see such examples in the field, in quarries and salt mines in Portugal to discover how to address such complexity and design your underground storage system in the most efective and predictable way.
