Burial history models for the Larne Basin (Larne-2 borehole) by Holford et al. (2009) and the East Irish Sea Basin (well 110/12a-1) by Bunce (2018). The models show that maximum burial occurred much earlier within the Larne Basin (Middle Jurassic: 180 Ma) than within the East Irish Sea Basin (Paleocene: 62 Ma) (Holford et al. 2009; Bunce 2018).
