Presenting the latest geochemical data on clays in sandstones, this text provides important information for geologists involved in basin analysis, sandstone petrology and petroleum geology.
Clay minerals are one of the most important groups of minerals that destroy permeability in sandstones. However, they also react with drilling and completion fluids and induce fines migration during hydrocarbon production. They are a very complex family of minerals that are rout…
The goal of this book is to acquaint the reader with concepts and methods regarding stratigraphic principles and petroleum occurrences in deltaic and shallow marine standstones. This publication contains two main sections: 'Genetic Units - Principles and Sedimentary Structures';…
The late Leo Spitzer enjoyed a reputation as one of the twentieth century's outstanding philologists and linguists. His writings in the field of the romance languages and of comparative philology have been always stimulating, often controversial. This collection presents his ess…

Modelling subsurface deposits is extremely challenging with limited subsurface datasets such as cores, wireline logs and seismic data. However, integrated studies, which rely on extensive subsurface datasets can lead to improve the quality of spatial and temporal distributions o…
Large-scale sandstone injectite complexes located in California and in Tunisia have exposures of external geometries and sedimentary structures. Substantial macroscale erosion occurred along the margins between the injected sandstones and host mudstones that include scalloped up…
This thesis investigates the origin of large-scale sandstone intrusions. A new approach combining seismic, well data, core and outcrop observations with numerical modelling has been undertaken. Two possible end members of saucer-shaped, seismic-scale sandstone intrusions from th…
