Thermochemical sulfate reduction (TSR) is a set of redox reactions between organic matter
and sulfates at temperatures> 120° C, and occurs in varied environments including deeply …

Most Paleozoic marine craton basins in China are rich in natural gas except the Tarim Basin,
where both oil and gas are prolific. Various hydrocarbon types have been found in this …

Sulfur compounds have significant geochemical information, and the removal of sulfur from
petroleum products is one of the most important tasks in petroleum refining. However, it is a …

The nine editions of Stable Isotope Geochemistry have appeared over a time span of nearly
50 years. The first edition (1973) appeared as a slim book of 135 pages. Due to the rapid …

Whether the result of an oil well blowout, vessel collision or grounding, leaking pipeline, or
other incident at sea, each marine oil spill will present unique circumstances and …

ABSTRACT The global Precambrian–Cambrian system includes an important series of
hydrocarbon-bearing strata. However, because rocks of this age are typically deeply buried …

A large amount of deep oil has been discovered in the Tazhong Uplift, Tarim Basin whereas
the oil source is still controversial. An integrated geochemical approach was utilized to …

An estimated trillions of cubic meters of natural gas have recently been discovered in the
Sinian dolomite reservoirs in the Sichuan Basin, China. The 20–26 m thick reservoirs were …

During thermochemical sulfate reduction (TSR), H 2 S generated by reactions between
hydrocarbons and aqueous sulfate back-reacts with remaining oil-phase compounds …

Organosulfur compounds (OSCs) play important roles in the formation, preservation, and
thermal degradation of sedimentary organic matter and the associated petroleum …
