Diagenesis exerts a strong control on the quality and heterogeneity of most clastic
reservoirs. Variations in the distribution of diagenetic alterations usually accentuate the …

The spatial and temporal distribution of diagenetic alterations in siliciclastic sequences is
controlled by a complex array of interrelated parameters that prevail during eodiagenesis …

This paper addresses the origin, distribution pattern and burial diagenetic evolution of clay
minerals in sandstone: kaolin, smectite, illite, chlorite, berthierine, glauconite and mixed …

Reservoir quality and heterogeneity are critical risk factors in tight oil exploration. The
integrated, analysis of the petrographic characteristics and the types and distribution of …

Carbonate cements in sandstones are dominated by calcite, dolomite, ankerite and siderite,
whereas magnesite and rhodochrosite are rare. The distribution patterns, mineralogy and …

The Palaeocene, deep-water marine sandstones recovered from six wells in the Shetland-
Faroes Basin represent lowstand, transgressive and highstand systems tract turbiditic …

Sediment-hosted Cu deposits, including stratiform and epigenetic vein-type Cu deposits, are
the second largest source of Cu worldwide. However, many facets of these vein-type Cu …

The main reservoirs in Santos Basin, eastern Brazilian margin, are Upper Cretaceous,
marine turbidite and shelf sandstones that show porosity greater than 20% below 4000 m …

Elucidation of the distribution of diagenetic alterations in incised-valley sandstones within a
sequence stratigraphic framework allows a better understanding of their reservoir-quality …

In the fluvio-deltaic, quartz-arenitic sandstones of the Jurassic Khatatba Formation in the
Salam field (Egypt's Western Desert), diagenesis and sedimentary facies control reservoir …
