This document discusses carbonate sedimentology and how it differs from clastic sedimentology. Specifically, it notes that while interpretation techniques from clastic reservoirs can be applied to carbonates, carbonates are influenced more by biogenic processes and are susceptible to more diagenetic alterations. It also discusses various carbonate classification schemes, common sedimentary structures in carbonates like cross-bedding and biogenic structures, using well logs and core data to correlate carbonate lithofacies, how permeability varies between different lithofacies associations, and fractures in carbonate reservoirs.
