Assessment of the hydrocarbon potential of the Bering Sea
Background. The issues of hydrocarbon (HC) forecasting and prospecting on sea shelves remain relevant. In this paper, an experience of assessing the hydrocarbon potential of the Bering Sea using the method of basin modelling is demonstrated.Aim.

Genome-inspired molecular identification in organic matter via Raman spectroscopy
Rapid, non-destructive characterization of molecular level chemistry for organic matter (OM) is experimentally challenging. Raman spectroscopy is one of the most widely used techniques for non-destructive chemical characterization, although it currently ...

Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary deposits in Denmark: A diachroneity [PDF]
The lateral distribution of predominantly terrestrial kerogen or humics enriched with copper(II) porphyrins (Cu-P) across the Danish marine basin implies that the alleged Cretaceous-Tertiary (KT) boundary deposits in western Denmark (at the Nye Kløv ...

Air oxidation of the kerogen/asphaltene vanadyl porphyrins: An electron spin resonance study [PDF]
The thermal behavior of vanadyl porphyrins was studied by electron spin resonance during heating of kerogens, isolated from the La Luna (Venezuela) and Serpiano (Switzerland) bituminous rocks, at 250ºC for 1 to 20 days in the presence of air ...

Cretaceous-tertiary boundary layer at Stevns Klint (Denmark): Copper and copper(II) porphyrins [PDF]
High concentrations (up to 4000 ppm) of copper(II) porphyrins have been detected in the kerogen of the Cretaceous/Tertiary (KT) boundary informal type sediment, the Fish Clay, at Stevns Klint, Denmark.

Postdiagenetic Changes in Kerogen Properties and Type by Bacterial Oxidation and Dehydrogenation
A significant part of organic carbon found on the earth is deposited as fossil organic matter in the lithosphere. The most important reservoir of carbon is shale rocks enriched with organic matter in the form of kerogen created during diagenesis.

Fossil biomass preserved as graphitic carbon in a late paleoproterozoic banded iron formation metamorphosed at more than 550°C [PDF]
Metamorphism is thought to destroy microfossils, partly through devolatilization and graphitization of biogenic organic matter. However, the extent to which there is a loss of molecular, elemental and isotope signatures from biomass during high ...

Geochemistry of the cretaceous-tertiary boundary (Fish Clay) at Stevns Klint (Denmark): Ir, Ni and Zn in kerogen [PDF]
Geochemical analyses of trace metals (Ir, Ni and Zn) in the kerogen of the black marl of the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary succession (Fish Clay) at Stevns Klint (Højerup Church) were undertaken.

The Carriers of the Interstellar Unidentified Infrared Emission Features: Aromatic or Aliphatic?
The unidentified infrared emission (UIE) features at 3.3, 6.2, 7.7, 8.6, and 11.3 micrometer, commonly attributed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules, have been recently ascribed to coal- or kerogen-like organic nanoparticles with a mixed ...
