The application and development of ichnofabric, architectural elements, and depositional process concepts to petroleum industry core studies is relatively advanced. These have demonstrated usefulness in correlation, sequence stratigraphy and elucidation of depositional environments. Furthermore, acquisition and development of dipmeter and image log technology are equally advanced. Their usefulness for high level sedimentology, however, remains under utilized. We too often limit our interpretations to locating and quantifying the dip and azimuth of faults and fractures, tectonic tilt, and palaeocurrent directions. Using examples, this poster demonstrates how we can realise the limits.
