Shelf Sand and Sandstone Bodies


Book Description

The last decade of study of the shallow-marine boundary layer has arrived at a synthesis of sediment dynamic principles that can begin to be transferred from the time scales of the rock record (years to millenia). At the same time, the technology of petroleum exploration has lead to a fundamentally new way of examining the deposits of sedimentary basins. This book applies these insights to continental shelf and continental margin deposits, providing an entirely new viewpoint to the subject.

Depositional Models of Shelf and Shoreline Sandstones


Book Description

This lecture course is designed to provide geologic insights towards the development of depositional and exploration models for sandstone reservoirs associated with one or more of a variety of shelf and shoreline environmental settings. Sedimentologic and stratigraphic criteria are used to predict more accurately the subsurface distribution and trend of reservoir quality sandstones. Equally important in the development of models for shelf and shoreline sandstones is the subsurface analysis of modern depositional systems.
