Rock Mechanical Characterization of Unconventional Source Rocks
SPE Middle East Oil and Gas Show and Conference, 2019Abstract Rock strength is an important property to measure for determining its effect on drilling, wellbore stability, and potential well completions associated with hydraulic fracturing of unconventional reservoirs. The industry traditionally relies on elastic moduli measured from core plugs to determine the stress anisotropy to predict

Generation of hydrocarbons in source rocks
Naturwissenschaften, 1983Generation of hydrocarbons in source rocks is controlled by their temperature history with burial, as well as by quantity, type and structure of their kerogens. The degree to which hydrocarbon generation processes have advanced in a given source rock can be recognized on the basis of elemental analysis of kerogens (H/C-O/C diagrams), as well as by ...

Much of modern petroleum geochemistry depends upon accurate assessment of the hydrocarbon-source capabilities of sedimentary rocks. Although the termsource rockis frequently used generically to describe fine-grained sedimentaiy rocks, that usage is a bit too broad and loose.

On the original rock source of tektites
Lithos, 1968On the Kohler & Raaz diagram for rock analyses all projection points of tektites and impact glasses, except for the impact glass from Ries, lie inside the field of sedimentogenic rocks. (The Ries glass is just inside the boundary of magmatogenic rocks). This indicates that the majority of tektites derive from terrestrial sedimentogenic rocks.

Deposition of Petroleum Source Rocks
1997It has been long recognized that fine-grained sediments of both siliciclastic and carbonate compositions are the principal source rocks of petroleum. The common coincidence of significant, and often high, content of organic matter within such sediments, as first comprehensively documented by Trask and Wu (1930), provided the initial clue and support ...

Elastic Properties of Source Rocks
Proceedings, 2010Understanding how to relate the nanometer-scale phenomena and properties of source rocks and to their complex macroscopic properties is one of the current challenges in rock physics. This study shows a combined application of SEM, CLSM imaging and nanoindentation characterization, which provides the microscopic basis to analyze these macroscopically ...

Source Rocks and Petroleum Geochemistry
2010As discussed in Chap. 1, petroleum is generated from organic matter which accumulates in sedimentary basins. Only a small fraction of the organic matter produced in the photic zone in the ocean becomes trapped in sediments (Fig. 14.1). Most of the organic matter is produced by photosynthesis producing algae (bacteria) and higher organisms which feed on
