Abstract
This study is part of a research project on Khuff grainstone bodies carried out in the Al Jabal al-Akhdar area (Oman Mountains) in the Sultanate of Oman (Figure 1) and focusses on Khuff sequences KS1 to KS4. Its aim was to unravel the Khuff stratigraphic architecture on hierarchical scales to understand geometries and textural variation of grainstones as potential reservoir bodies. Hierarchical static 3-D geological models were generated that visualise the sedimentary architecture of primary reservoir bodies using industry standard 3-D geomodelling software.
