By B. W. Sellwood (auth.), Andrew Parker, Bruce W. Sellwood (eds.)

Reservoirs in general encompass sandstones or carbonates showing heterogeneities brought on by a variety of components. a few of these shaped depositionally (e.g. as channels, palaeosols, clay seams or salts), others should be diagenetic in foundation (e.g. carbonate or silica cemented zones, authigenic clays, karstic surfaces). The severity with which diagenesis impacts rock structures effects from the interaction among the diagenetic technique itself and the timescale over which it operated.
The publication offers a wide-ranging review of diagenetic procedures and responses in calcareous, argillaceous, arenaceous and carbon-rich (microbial and natural) sedimentary structures. It introduces diagenetic suggestions, studies present wisdom, and indicates how latest qualitative ways may be built in additional quantitative methods. a number of chapters think of mass stability calculations and the temporal and spatial facets of diagenetic methods. it's certain, as a textbook, in offering this sort of breadth of diagenetic topic diversity and such intensity of insurance in each one subject. It presents a resource reference for complex scholars and execs lively in reservoir and aquifer experiences.

MOUNTJOY Department of Planetary and Earth Sciences McGill University 3450 University St. Montreal, Quebec H3A 2A7, Canada ABSTRACT Dolomitization of the Devonian carbonates of western Canada occurred in two main phases; 1) pervasive replacement dolomites that form 80 to 90% of all dolomites during early to intermediate burial (500 to 1500m), and 2) minor coarse crystalline and saddle dolomites that formed from hydrothermal fluids (>90oC).
