Sequence Stratigraphy Sequence Stratigraphy
A framework of genetically A framework of genetically related stratigraphic facies related stratigraphic facies geometries and their geometries and their bounding surfaces used to bounding surfaces used to determine depositional determine depositional settingsetting

Surfaces of erosion & non-deposition Surfaces of erosion & non-deposition (sequence boundaries)(sequence boundaries)
Flooding (trangressive surfaces [TS] &/or Flooding (trangressive surfaces [TS] &/or maximum flooding surfaces [mfs])maximum flooding surfaces [mfs])
Subdivision & interpretation of sedimentary record using a framework surfaces seen in outcrops, well logs, & 2-D and 3-D seismic. Include:
This framework used to predict the extent of sedimentary facies geometry, lithologic character, grain size, sorting & reservoir quality
