Evaluation of Paleozoic source rocks in Kuwait
AAPG Bulletin, 2021ABSTRACT Organic geochemical and petrographic analyses were carried out on Paleozoic core samples to evaluate the source rocks in Kuwait. This is a pioneer study because most of the petroleum exploration targets the Mesozoic petroleum system.

Quantitative evaluation of coal as source rocks
Nonrenewable Resources, 1997Gas generated and expelled from coals often results in economic gas accumulations. As a consequence, it is important to consider the theoretical aspects of these processes and to develop methods that can be used to assess coal as a potential source rock.

On the geobiological evaluation of hydrocarbon source rocks
Frontiers of Earth Science in China, 2007Hydrocarbon source rocks are characterized by the hydrocarbon discharge, and the alteration and variation in organic compositions and organic content due to the enhanced thermal maturation. These variations throw constraints on the application of the conventional inversion evaluation of hydrocarbon potential by assessing the residual organic matter ...

Source Rock Evaluation and Oil To Source Rock Correlation of Atambuamalaka Area, West Timor
Proceedings of Indonesian Petroleum Association, 46th Annual Convention & Exhibition, 2022, 2022Exploration is being carried out intensively in eastern Indonesia, including the Timor Island area. Timor Island is located in an area near several commercial hydrocarbon accumulations in the Australian continental margin, such as the Kakatua oil field, the Bayu Undan gas and condensate field in the Timor Gap, and the Abadi gas field in the Aru Sea ...

Source-Rock Evaluation Using the Rock-Eval Technique
2019The basic pyrolysis techniques used for source-rock geochemical analysis are generally simple and can be interpreted in a straightforward way. However, some of the data generated can be misleading and lead to confused interpretations if not properly assessed. This chapter discusses the different aspects of source-rock evaluation using the commonly used

Source Rock Evaluation by Pyrolysis-Gas Chromatography
AAPG Bulletin, 1983ABSTRACT A pyrolysis-gas chromatography system has been developed for the rapid evaluation of potential source rocks. For the determination of organic richness and maturation, this system uses the pyrolysis methods previously described.

Pyrolysis Techniques for Source-Rock Evaluation
AAPG Bulletin, 1974Abstract Source rocks of petroleum are characterized by generation of hydrocarbons and the migration of these hydrocarbons out of the rock. Usually the process of generation is incomplete at depths of interest to the petroleum industry so that, when shale samples are heated in the laboratory, they first release the hydrocarbons which ...

Source rock and maturation evaluation of the Barbados accretionary prism
Marine and Petroleum Geology, 1992Abstract Organic material in specimens from surface and downhole sites and samples of oil and gas from Barbadian wells were studied for source potential and maturation history. The study involved: (1) visual examination of the kerogen; (2) measurement of total organic carbon content; (3) determination of vitrinite reflectance; (4) Rock-Eval pyrolysis

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.

Basin modelling and source rock evaluation in the Guyana Basin
First Break, 2011The Guyana Basin contains a world-class source rock of Late Cretaceous age, but no hydrocarbon fields have yet been discovered offshore. In order to evaluate source rock maturity, we used basin modelling software to model a grid of interpreted 2D seismic sections and combined the 2D modelling results to build a basin-wide model.
