Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic Modeling of Quartz Cementation and Porosity Loss in Deeply Buried Sandstone Reservoirs
TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematically simple kinetic model was proposed to simulate the porosity loss in sandstones as a function of temperature history and the amount of precipitated quartz cement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting Porosity through Simulating Sandstone Compaction and Quartz Cementation
R. H. Lander,Olav Walderhaug +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a forward numerical model (Exemplar) of compaction and quartz cementation is developed to provide a general method suited for porosity prediction of quartzose and ductile grain-rich sandstones in mature and frontier basins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precipitation Rates for Quartz Cement in Sandstones Determined by Fluid-Inclusion Microthermometry and Temperature-History Modeling
TL;DR: Precipitation rates for quartz cement in quartz-rich Jurassic sandstones from the Norwegian shelf have been determined by combining petrographic data, fluid-inclusion data, and temperature-history modeling as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperatures of Quartz Cementation in Jurassic Sandstones from the Norwegian Continental Shelf--Evidence from Fluid Inclusions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured homogenization temperatures for 274 aqueous and 366 hydrocarbon fluid inclusions trapped within quartz overgrowths in Jurassic sandstones from the Norwegian continental shelf and found that quartz cementation of the studied sandstones has taken place at temperatures between 75°C and 165°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Porosity prediction in quartzose sandstones as a function of time, temperature, depth, stylolite frequency, and hydrocarbon saturation
TL;DR: In this article, the variation of porosity in quartzose sandstones is calculated as a function of depth, temperature gradient, burial rate, stylolite frequency, and hydrocarbon saturation.
