Production of Shale Oil

open access: yes, 1982
Intensive pre-project feasibility and engineering studies begun in 1979 have produced an outline plan for development of a major project for production of shale oil from private lands in the Piceance Basin in western Colorado.

Understanding pore evolution in a lacustrine calcareous shale reservoir in the oil window by pyrolyzing artificial samples in a semi-closed system

open access: yes, 2021
Calcareous shale is a favorable target for shale oil exploration, because shale oil moves more easily in calcareous shale than in clay-rich shale and the high carbonate content is beneficial to shale fracturing.

Lodge moraines: a common yet underreported end‐moraine type—a review

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Lodge moraines are a distinct genetic type of end moraine formed by submarginal accretion of subglacial till; they are some of the largest end moraines in the world. Although underreported in the literature, they are of equal importance to push, dump and hummocky end moraines. End moraines are formed at glacier ice margins and show the extent of former

Characteristics and Origin of Methane Adsorption Capacity of Marine, Transitional, and Lacustrine Shales in Sichuan Basin, China

open access: yesGeofluids, 2021
Adsorbed gas is an important component of shale gas. The methane adsorption capacity of shale determines the composition of shale gas. In this study, the methane adsorption capacity of marine, transitional, and lacustrine shales in the Sichuan Basin was ...

Depositional processes of varved sediments from proglacial Lago Frías since 1800 CE (North Patagonian Andes, Argentina)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The glacierized Valle Frías in Northern Patagonia is one of the best‐studied valleys in South America and includes varved sediments from Lago Frías. We complement this lacustrine record with a high‐resolution documentation of varve counts and their composition.

Formation conditions and enrichment model of retained petroleum in lacustrine shale: A case study of the Paleogene in Huanghua depression, Bohai Bay Basin, China

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2020
Compared with marine facies shale strata, lacustrine shale strata are more complicated in geological conditions, and thus more difficult to explore and develop.

Characteristics and Origin of Organic Matter in Triassic Lacustrine Shale From Fuxian Oilfield

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Along with the successful exploitation of shale oil, organic-rich shale has attracted great attention to the geologists. However, quantitatively differentiating the origin of organic matter in shale is still challenging due to the nature of its complex ...

Processes and Patterns of Dolomite Precipitation in Aptian Pre‐Salt Deposits of Santos Basin, Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Aptian pre‐salt lacustrine carbonates represent the most significant oil exploration target along the South Atlantic margin. Dolomitization of the Santos Basin Barra Velha Formation (BVF) is critical for reservoir quality, yet its origin, patterns, and evolution remain poorly understood.

Effect of saline sedimentary environment on pore throats of shale

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Shale pore throat is one of the key factors affecting shale oil and gas exploitation. In order to study the effect of saline on shale pore throat in the continental lacustrine basin, the paleo-salinity of the lacustrine basin was analyzed using the Couth
