understanding the performance and role of each formation in a petroleum play is crucial for the efficient and precise exploration and exploitation of trapped hydrocarbons in a sedimentary basin. the lorestan basin is one of the most important hydrocarbon basins of iran, and it includes various oil-prone potential source rocks and reservoir rocks. previous geochemical studies of the basin were n...

The study of organic matter content and composition in source rocks using the methods geochemistry is an important part unconventional reservoir characterization. aim this work was structural group analysis directly rock combination with a quantitative assessment surface distribution sample by FTIR spectroscopy microscopy. We have developed new experimental procedures for semi-quantitative cont...

The aim of the research presented in this article was to analyse processes source-rock decomposition, including kinetic parameters pyrolysis, relation type organic matter and its maturity. examined source rocks were Menilite shales from several units within Flysch Carpathians (Poland). samples analysed with use thermal methods, Rock-Eval thermogravimetry coupled an FTIR detector. Kinetic determ...

Organic geochemical evaluation of the Madbi Formation as the main source rock of the Al-Jawf Basin, NE Central Yemen was the main objective of this study. The organic geochemical methods used in the study include: rock-eval pyrolysis, total organic carbon, and optical measurements as the vitrinite reflectance and thermal alteration index. In this study, 67 well core and side-well core samples o...
