Shale Kerogen: Hydraulic Fracturing Fluid Interactions and Contaminant Release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The recent increase in unconventional oil and gas exploration and production has prompted a large amount of research on hydraulic fracturing, but the majority of chemical reactions between shale minerals and organic matter with fracturing fluids are not ...

Relationship between Hydrocarbon Gas Generation and Kerogen Structural Evolution Revealed by Closed System Pyrolysis and Quantitative Py-GC Analysis of a Type II Kerogen

open access: yes, 2021
Kerogen can release both liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons during thermal maturation. In this study, the maturation and hydrocarbon generation of a low-maturity type II kerogen were simulated via temperature-programmed gold tube closed system (GTCS ...

Petrophysical log-driven kerogen typing: unveiling the potential of hybrid machine learning

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2023
The importance of characterizing kerogen type in evaluating source rock and the nature of hydrocarbon yield is emphasized. However, traditional laboratory geochemical assessments can be time-intensive and costly. In this study, an innovative approach was

Molecular Investigation of CO2/CH4 Competitive Adsorption and Confinement in Realistic Shale Kerogen

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2019
The adsorption behavior and the mechanism of a CO2/CH4 mixture in shale organic matter play significant roles to predict the carbon dioxide sequestration with enhanced gas recovery (CS-EGR) in shale reservoirs.

Solvent swelling studies of Göynük (Kerogen Type-I) and Beypazari oil shales (Kerogen Type-II)

open access: yes, 2003
The volumetric swelling procedure was applied to Göynük and Beypazari oil shales from Turkey by using 10 solvents and the cross-linking in the macromolecular network of oil shales were investigated using this technique.
