A gross sandstone thickness map can give an idea of the depositional dip and strike of the sedimentary system. In the Budare field of Venezuela, north–south strike elements correspond to distributary channels in the bottom part of the map. An east–west arcuate depositional element in the north of the map corresponds to a wave-dominated delta front (from Hamilton et al., 2002). From Shepherd, M., 2009, Lithofacies maps, in M. Shepherd, Oil field production geology: AAPG Memoir 91, p. 93-98.
