Sheet sandstones form excellent reservoirs. Their characteristics include simple tabular geometries, good lateral continuity, and few erosional features.<ref name=WeimerandSlatt /> A large volume of deep-water sheet sandstones can be produced by a single production well. Width-to-thickness ratios are large, more than 500:1 for sheet complexes compared to a range of 10:1 to 300:1 for channels.<ref name=WeimerandSlatt /> Vertical connectivity can be variable depending on the amount of interbedded shales or the degree of sand-on-sand amalgamation. | Sheet sandstones form excellent reservoirs.
