The Gulf of Aden stretches between the Somalia and the Arabia plates. It constitutes an interesting area to study the development of the passive margins. Its rifting originated ca. 35 Ma ago and the spreading began at least 17.6 Ma ago in the studied area. Moreover the Gulf opening direction is strongly oblique to its mean trend. This characteristic is studied in this thesis. On the northeastern margin, the Encens cruise (R/V l'Atalante, 2006) undertook the acquisition of new multichannel seismics data (360 traces), especially on the first-order segment between Alula-Fartak and Socotra fracture zones. A second-order segmentation is observed. It shows different structures and morphologies according to the segment, especially concerning the o...
