Microbial Community Composition and Function in Jiangsu Oil Reservoir Cores, China. [PDF]
Shale oil reservoirs meet the basic requirements for microbial growth. Microorganisms, crude oil and water are distributed within the pore spaces of the reservoir formation. In situ microorganisms utilise crude oil for growth and reproduction. ABSTRACT Shale oil reservoirs are typically characterised by elevated temperatures, confined spaces and ...

Marcasite at the Permian‐Triassic Transition
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.

Lithofacies Paleogeography and Geological Survey of Shale Gas [PDF]
This is an open access book. This book presents new theory and methods on compiling lithofacies paleogeographic maps as a key tool for guiding geological survey on shale gas. The fundamental goal of the shale gas geological survey is to find the ‘dessert’ area.
