Carbonate Sedimentology

Large Benthic Foraminifera Packstone - Grainstone

Petrography

Rock characerisation, diagenetic history, porosity development
Thin section of limestone ditch cuttings

Cuttings Petrography

Identify facies, texture, mineralogy, authgenic cements and pore types in uncored intervals
Oil filled fluid inclusions under UV

Fluorescence Petrography

Identification of petroleum fluid inclusions, ghost fabrics, cement zones.
