Abstract
This chapter contains detailed structural interpretation, structural analysis, sedimentary facies study, and traps evaluation techniques for complex reservoir identification and evaluation. Furthermore, palynofacies study is one of the highlighted methods for sedimentary studies. It is illustrated in detail and its practice results are fully discussed in this chapter. Complex reservoirs are discussed in the chapter including both clastic and carbonate reservoirs.
