Abstract
Through this contribution, the actual state of the art for characterizing diagenetic processes and concepts is presented. Then, a variety of tools and approaches for quantitative assessments of diagenesis at various scales are discussed. This is followed by the illustrations of several numerical modelling techniques and a proposed workflow for integrated basin and reservoir modelling, aiming to further assess the impacts of multi-scale diagenesis on the heterogeneity of carbonate reservoir rocks.
