Download or read book Compaction and cementation controls on reservoir quality in Buntsandstein red beds written by Schmidt, Christina and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-02 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reservoir quality in fluvial siliciclastic rocks is variable. Permeability is influenced by micron-scale grain coatings or bedding style on the m-/km-scale. Outcrops allow the analysis of depositional environments and diagenesis, thus an investigation of reservoir quality controls. A process-oriented approach is used to understand variability in a meander deposit, compaction and cementation behavior of lithofacies types during burial and the discrepancy between porosity and permeability values.
