... are considered on micro- and nanoscales. Various experimental and log-based studies have also been done in the past to estimate the elastic moduli of solid organic matter with varying thermal maturity (Ahmadov et al., 2009; Emmanuel et al., 2016; Vernik et al., 2024). To adequately model minerology, porosity...

... on the thermal maturity of the formation adds more complexity to the characterization. Consequently, it is crucial to quantify the impact of thermal maturation on the reservoir properties for accurate reservoir characterization. We provide a quantitative assessment of thermal maturity on geological features...

... in the kerogen and clay structures needs quantitative investigation. In this paper, we aim to (a) quantify the effects of kerogen composition, pore structure, and thermal maturity on the CO 2 :CH 4 competitive adsorption behavior, (b) quantify the effects of clay surface chemistry on the CO 2 and CH 4...

.... It’s important to note that the selected retort temperature regime for Formation X in Basin A may very well be different than Formation Y in Basin B due to variations in source rock (kerogen) type, thermal maturity and/or a number of other factors. Therefore, a tailored experimental set up...

.... When the samples were heated during pyrolysis, water made a difference in the content of Rock-Eval (RE)-derived parameters. During AHP and HP, the analyzed samples changed in terms of thermal maturity, organic matter (OM) quantity and quality, and remaining hydrocarbon generation potential. Unresolved...

..., economics, and field thermal maturity patterns. For single source hydrocarbons, thermal maturity is highly correlated to the thermally evolved fluid chemistry eventually produced at the surface. Production measurements such as gas density, oil density, and gas-oil ratio, directly reflect the evolved...

.... As Sh2 increased, the total solids obtained from NMR increased. A trend of increase in the solids vs. thermal maturity was evident, and a correlation between NMR solids and TOC of the Norwood in the three coreholes was observed. Since the Antrim Shale cores had been stored for many years, the signals...

... of produced fluids as a function of wellbore placement as well as regional geology. Within the context of thermal maturity, our study addresses whether Niobrara oils exhibit unique geochemical signatures stratigraphically among landing zones and regionally across the basin. We use high-resolution gas...

.... Previously we showed using a combination of experimental methods and molecular simulation studies that kerogen type, thermal maturity, and reservoir temperature conditions affect the contact angle of the water droplet on kerogen surface, and therefore, wettability of kerogen. Wettability affects...

... of this study, 'producible' is therefore defined by the S+A fraction while resins and asphaltenes are considered not producible. Geochemical data indicate that petroleum stored in the pores of the shales have variable SARA composition, ranging from 50% S+A in low thermal maturity portions of the basin, to 97% S...
