Description
Stratigraphic analysis aids in defining depositional environments, facies distribution, and reservoir quality. Lithostratigraphy focuses on rock type correlations, while biostratigraphy uses fossils to date formations. Sequence stratigraphy identifies key depositional sequences for predicting reservoir potential. Understanding reservoir characteristics, including porosity and permeability, is crucial for estimating hydrocarbon volumes. Core sampling, well logging, and thin-section petrography provide insights into reservoir quality. Modern advancements include reservoir simulation models, 3D seismic imaging, and high-resolution stratigraphic techniques.
