Abstract: Conventionally, diagenesis has been studied by making qualitative morphological observations which have been organised into complex classification schemes. Petrophysics, with its many quantitative measurements, now gives us the ability to quantify the effects of the type, degree and timing of complex diagenetic process. The aim of this paper is to examine how different diagenetic processes affect the petrophysical properties of carbonate rocks and to develop quantitative methodologies to describe the results of diagenetic processes. A large num...
