Reservoir rocks are characterized by petrophysical properties favoring the capacity for the migration and storage of fluids, gas and minerals. Microfacies analysis has been strongly triggered by the exploration and development of hydrocarbon reservoirs and source rocks in limestone and dolomites and is still of interest in understanding depositional controls, facies heterogeneities and reservoir property distribution.
