Zusammenfassung:A method related to generating a facies-cement model of a subsurface region. The method includes obtaining depositional data regarding the subsurface region, wherein the depositional data incudes wave impact data. The method further includes generating, by a computer processor, a geological model for the subsurface region using a forward-depositional modeling process and the depositional data, wherein the geological model comprises wave energy data. The method further includes determining, by the computer processor, carbonate cementation data for the subsurface region using a diagenetic modeling process and the wave energy data, wherein the carbonate cementation data describes cementation in one or more depositional processes, and generating, by the computer processor, a facies-cement model of the subsurface region.
