The study of organic matter content and composition in source rocks using the methods of
organic geochemistry is an important part of unconventional reservoir characterization. The …

Kerogen maturity is an important indicator for evaluating source rocks. We propose a
kerogen maturity index (molecule-maturity index, MMI) based on the changes in the …

Hydrous pyrolysis was applied to four low-maturity aliquots from the Utica, Excello,
Monterey, and Niobrara Shale Formations in North America to create artificial maturation …

The aim of the research was to ascertain the possibility of determining the type of kerogen
based on gaseous products of pyrolysis of rocks containing organic matter. The relationship …

The aim of the research presented in this article was to analyse the processes of source-rock
decomposition, including kinetic parameters of pyrolysis, in relation to the type of the organic …
