Study of Organic Matter of Unconventional Reservoirs by IR Spectroscopy and IR Microscopy

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 content, applied these samples from Bazhenov shale formation (West Siberia, Russia). results been verified data obtained Rock-Eval pyrolysis differential thermal analysis. demonstrate prospects microscopy application non-destructive express chemical structure rocks.
