Authigenic embrittlement of marine shale in the process of diagenesis
Natural Gas Industry B, 2018 Studies on the origin of shale brittleness are of great significance to understanding shale gas accumulation laws. The current studies, however, mostly focus on the improvement of shale brittleness by biological quartz enrichment, but rarely on the ...

A comparison of North American shale plays with emerging non-marine shale plays in Australia [PDF]
Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2015 Geological and petrophysical parameters are critical in evaluating the production potential of prospective shale gas plays and their economic viability for commercial development. However, based on the US experience, these characteristics can vary widely.

Pore system and methane adsorption capacity features of marine and marine-continental transitional shale in the Sichuan Basin, SW China [PDF]
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Recently, significant achievements have been made in the gas exploration of marine Longmaxi shale in China. As exploration efforts have advanced, the exploration targets have gradually expanded to other sedimentary systems (marine-continental ...

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Shale gas exploitation: Status, problems and prospect
Natural Gas Industry B, 2018 Over the past five years, great progress has been made in shale gas exploitation, which has become the most driving force for global gas output growth. Hydrocarbon extraction from shale helps drive the USA on the road to energy independence.

China organic-rich shale geologic features and special shale gas production issues
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2014 The depositional environment of organic-rich shale and the related tectonic evolution in China are rather different from those in North America. In China, organic-rich shale is not only deposited in marine environment, but also in non-marine environment:

Low-temperature gas from marine shales [PDF]
Geochemical Transactions, 2009 Thermal cracking of kerogens and bitumens is widely accepted as the major source of natural gas (thermal gas). Decomposition is believed to occur at high temperatures, between 100 and 200 degrees C in the subsurface and generally above 300 degrees C in the laboratory. Although there are examples of gas deposits possibly generated at lower temperatures,

Denitrification in marine shales in northeastern Colorado [PDF]
Water Resources Research, 1999 Parts of the South Platte River alluvial aquifer in northeastern Colorado are underlain by the Pierre Shale, a marine deposit of Late Cretaceous age that is <1000 m thick. Ground water in the aquifer is contaminated with NO3‐, and the shale contains abundant potential electron donors for denitrification in the forms of organic carbon and sulfide ...
