This book is both a review and a look to the future, highlighting challenges for better predicting quantitatively the impact of diagenesis on reservoir rocks. Classical diagenesis studies make use of a wide range of descriptive analytical techniques to explain specific, relatively time-framed fluid-rock interaction processes, and deduce their impacts on reservoir rocks. Future operational workflows will consist of constructing a conceptual diagenesis model, quantifying the related diagenetic phases, and modelling the diagenetic processes. Innovative approaches are emerging for applied quantitative diagenesis, providing numerical data that can be used by reservoir engineers as entry (input) data, and for validating results of numerical simulations. Geometry-based, geostatistical and geochemical modelling do not necessarily mimic natural processes, they rather provide reasonable solutions to specific problems.

Über Autor(innen)

Dr. habil. Fadi Henri Nader is an Engineer Sedimentologist at the IFP Energies nouvelles (formerly: Institut Français du Pétrole, IFP). He is working on diagenesis (fluid-rock interactions) and its impacts on reservoir properties (porosity/permeability) at the plug-, reservoir- and basin-scales. he has also launched several new research projects related to reflection seismic interpretations and modelling of frontier basins.
