426:. During the earthquake, displacements along the fault was exclusively strike-slip. A possible explanation for the faulting behavior is due to the accretionary wedge being pushed eastwards towards the Indian Plate. Much of the inferred displacements occurred no less than 10 km (6.2 mi) beneath the surface. Peak slip was estimated at 10 m (33 ft) while the average slip across the rupture was 6 m (20 ft). Satellite mapping of the surface rupture revealed a maximum displacement of 17 m (56 ft) and averaged out at 8.5 m (28 ft). The peak slip ranked among the second largest ever observed from a continental strike-slip earthquake, behind the 348: 34: 59: 471: 462:, Oman, recorded a 1.09 m (3 ft 7 in) tsunami wave, the highest tsunami observation, and in Muscat, the tsunami measured 0.51 m (1 ft 8 in). The city of Sur recorded a 0.40 m (1 ft 4 in) wave. The tsunami also measured 0.13 m (5.1 in) in Ormara, Pakistan; 0.27 m (11 in) in Ashkhara, Oman; 0.23 m (9.1 in) in Chabahar, Iran; and 0.19 m (7.5 in) in Khawr Wudam, Oman. 598: 66: 41: 518:
