Because Beer also looks unlike a typical fan deposit, elongated in a roughly NW-SE direction, I wonder if it's actually remobilised sands from the very first fan deposit laid down. Or maybe a bit of a hybrid, heavily truncated (lobes completely removed) and the sands moved parallel to the shelf edge. It certainly seems to be a large accumulation (large in surface area). If it is remobilised sand it could be cleaner than standard fan deposit, with better porosity/permeability, the fine stuff having been winnowed out by currents.
For comparison,I'm reminded of the Tui field, NZ, where the reservoir was described as 'clean beach sand'. Interesting thing about Tui is that they had a reservoir just 10-12m thick. Amazingly it was 100% net-to-gross with permeability up to 1 Darcy, so it flowed like the clappers and made the jv hundred's of millions of $s from a relatively tiny 29mmbbl recoverable field.
