Depositional constraints and diagenetic pathways controlling petrophysics of Middle Miocene shallow-water carbonate reservoirs (Leitha limestones), Central Paratethys, Austria-Hungary

The depositional influence on petrophysics of Leitha limestones, for instance, packing, sorting and grain size represents the basis for the differences in facies types in the same locality and among various localities. This depositional influence controls the subsequent stepwise diagenetic evolution the facies. Local depositional environments and their spatial evolution play a significant role on reservoir properties such as, at Mannersdorf the two facies types are varied due to the primary depositional characteristics and hence, the diagenetic evolution. Diagenetic pathways are principally similar in the different localities and basins; however, different stages of diagenesis are recorded due to different burial and exhumation histories.
