Sequence stratigraphy is a powerful tool for the prediction ofdepositional porosity and permeability, but does not account forthe impact of diagenesis on these reservoir parameters. Therefore,integrating diagenesis and sequence stratigraphy can provide abetter way of predicting reservoir quality.
This special publication consists of 19 papers (reviews and casestudies) exploring different aspects of the integration ofdiagenesis and sequence stratigraphy in carbonate, siliciclastic,and mixed carbonate-siliciclastic successions from variousgeological settings. This book will be of interest tosedimentary petrologists aiming to understand the distribution ofdiagenesis in siliciclastic and carbonate successions, to sequencestratigraphers who can use diagenetic features to recognize andverify interpreted key stratigraphic surfaces, and to petroleumgeologists who wish to develop more realistic conceptualmodels for the spatial and temporal distribution of reservoirquality.
This book is part of the International Associationof Sedimentologists (IAS) Special Publications.
The Special Publications from the IAS are a set of thematicvolumes edited by specialists on subjects of central interest tosedimentologists. Papers are reviewed and printed to the same highstandards as those published in the journal Sedimentologyand several of these volumes have become standard works ofreference.
