The microscopic structure of the pore system in fine-grained mudrocks provides spaces for
hydrocarbon percolation, migration, and occurrence. It exhibits strong heterogeneity due to …

Determination of mineral texture and diagenetic features in mudstones is crucial to reveal
the history of their pore systems and provides key information to predict their future sealing …

The connections between the depositional environment, sediment chemistry, and pore
structure of deep-water mudstones are still not completely understood. This study: 1) …

Organic matter (OM) hosted pores are crucial for the storage and migration of petroleum in
shale reservoirs. Thermal maturity and macerals type are important factors controlling the …

Unconventional reservoirs, such as oil and gas shales, are characterized by diverse and
heterogeneous pore systems, and their detailed knowledge is critical for understanding fluid …

Pore and fracture characteristics and diagenetic evolution pathways are crucial for
understanding the storage and flow capacity of shale reservoirs. Compared with marine …

Porosity in shale reservoirs is profoundly influenced by diagenetic processes that shape the
evolution of pore space. In the Songliao Basin, the first member of the Qingshankou …
