===Calcium carbonate cementation and compaction===
   −
Calcium carbonate cementation and compaction are diagenetic processes that are initiated soon after deposition and by which intergranular pore space is progressively reduced producing systematic changes in petrophysical properties (see "[[Evaluating diagenetically complex reservoirs]]" and "[[Reservoir quality]]"). Compaction is a physical/chemical process, while cementation requires fluid flow. Microporosity within grains or between Urne mud particles may be retained even though intergranular pore space is lost.
