The Palaeogene forearc sedimentary fill on Lemnos Island, NE Greece, was examined to determine reservoir characteristics and textural parameters. During this time interval the studied area was the site of accumulation of submarine fans that underlie shelf deposits, with tectonic activity responsible for the shallowing upward trend. | Porosity permeability and textural parameters of the palaeogene forearc sedimentary fill on Lemnos Island, NE Greece
