Carbonate Cementation in Sandstones
Distribution Patterns and Geochemical Evolution
Av Sadoon Morad
Inbunden, 1998
1993 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Carbonate cements are very common and abundant in clastic sequences. They profoundly influence the quality of hydrocarbon reservoirs and supply important information on palaeoenvironments and the chemical composition and flow patterns of fluids in sedimentary basins. Despite this importance, their …
