Nanostructure Effect on Methane Adsorption Capacity of Shale with Type III Kerogen
This study focuses on the nanostructure of shale samples with type III kerogen and its effect on methane adsorption capacity. The composition, pore size distribution, and methane adsorption capacities of 12 shale samples were analyzed by using the high ...

Separation and Artificial Maturation of Macerals from Type II Kerogen [PDF]
Immature Type II kerogen (HI= 660 mg/g) from the Lower Toarcian of the Paris Basin was separated into an alginite concentrate (HI = 952 mg/g) and an amorphous organic matter (AOM) concentrate (HI = 573 mg/g) by density centrifugation.

Study of factors affecting shale gas adsorption by simplified local density-Peng–Robinson method
Shale gas has become an important source of natural gas, and a significant portion of gas in the reservoir exists in an adsorbed state. Thus, knowledge of gas adsorption behavior is important to estimate original gas in place and shale gas production. In

Surface Chemistry and Atomic-Scale Reconstruction of Kerogen-Silica Composites
The interest in gas shale, a novel source rock of natural gas, has tremendously increased in recent years. Better understanding of the kerogen/rock interaction is of crucial importance for efficient gas extraction and hence for asset management.

Jump in the structure of Type I kerogen revealed from pyrolysis and 13C DP MAS NMR
Artificial maturation of Maoming oil shale kerogen (Type I) was performed at a heating rate of 5 degrees C/h in a closed Au tube system. Yields of pyrolysis products (C1-5, C6-14, C14+ and insoluble residue) were quantified. The insoluble kerogen residue

Changes in the molecular structure of a type II-S kerogen (Monterey Formation, USA) during sequential chemical degradation [PDF]
Flash pyrolysis and sequential chemical degradation were combined to study the molecular composition of an immature Type II-S kerogen from the Miocene Monterey Formation.

Release of bound aliphatic biomarkers via hydropyrolysis from Type II kerogen at high maturity
At relatively low maturity, kerogen-bound aliphatic biomarkers invariably display retardedmaturity compared to their ‘‘free” counterparts as a result of the protection afforded by themacromolecular structure.
