Organic matter dispersed in shales and mudstones is 10,000 times more abundant than that occurring in concentrated forms such as oil, gas, coal, and gas hydrates. So-called shale plays, distributed across all continents, are fairways where shale gas and shale oil might be extracted economically from targeted volumes of what is an extremely large ...

The influence of pyrolysis type on shale oil generation and its composition (Upper layer of Aleksinac oil shale, Serbia) [PDF]
The influence of pyrolysis type on shale oil generation and its composition was studied. Different methods such as Rock-Eval pyrolysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and pyrolysis in the open and closed systems were applied.

Swinging Shale: Shale Oil, the Global Oil Market, and the Geopolitics of Oil
AbstractIs shale oil “revolutionizing” the global oil market and the geopolitics of oil? If so, how? While two aspects of the shale boom—a new source of supply and a cause for the price collapse in 2014–2015—dominate the conventional wisdom, I argue that the most revolutionary change is the least understood aspect of shale oil—shale oil producers’ rise
