Compaction and cementation controls on reservoir quality in Buntsandstein red beds

The book explores the variability of reservoir quality in fluvial siliciclastic rocks, emphasizing how factors like micron-scale grain coatings and bedding styles affect permeability. It utilizes outcrop analysis to investigate depositional environments and diagenesis, focusing on a process-oriented approach to understand meander deposits. Key topics include the compaction and cementation behaviors of different lithofacies during burial and the reasons behind discrepancies in porosity and permeability values.
