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 distribution
patterns in time and space and their geochemical evolution are not
yet deeply explored and elucidated. This Special Publication
contains 21 review papers and case studies on carbonate cementation
in clastic sequences written by invited specialists on the subject.
These papers present a wide and deep coverage that enhance our
knowledge about carbonate cementation in various clastic
depositional environments, tectonic settings and burial histories.
The book will be of special interest to researchers, petroleum
geologists and teachers and students at the postgraduate level.
