Description
This book provides an extensive review of sedimentary basins, emphasizing their role in hydrocarbon generation and accumulation. Einsele explores the factors influencing basin evolution, including tectonic activity, sediment transport, and depositional environments. The book details the processes leading to the formation of source rocks, reservoirs, and traps. Additionally, it examines how sedimentary facies distribution impacts petroleum system development. Featuring detailed illustrations, case studies, and geochemical insights, this book is indispensable for petroleum geologists, stratigraphers, and sedimentologists involved in hydrocarbon exploration and production.
