The Sarliève marsh in the Limagne plain, in the heart of the French Massif Central, functioned as an endorheic lake during the Late Glacial and the Early and Middle Holocene. During the Late Boreal and the Atlantic it experienced drastic lowering of the water level as a result of dry and warm climatic episodes. Then, pre-evaporitic conditions triggered the deposition of sediment rich in organic...

Diatomites are sedimentary rocks rich in siliceous algae, mainly diatoms, and evident Greece Neogene successions. Despite their significance worldwide potential as source for hydrocarbons, little is known about them the wider area of Greece, limited biostratigraphic characteristics industrial use. This study assesses first time diatomites Western Crete focuses on rock quality hydrocarbon genera...

Abstract Generative potential and thermal maturity for Upper Palaeozoic source rocks from the south-eastern edge of Precaspian Basin were determined using Rock–Eval. A high hydrocarbon rock generative degree Lower Permian, Mid-Carboniferous strata have been revealed based on 39 samples. TOC values 0.4–5.5% obtained mature rocks. Integrated geochemical analysis Rock–Eval studies combined with 1D...

Abstract. The quality and quantity of soil organic matter (SOM) are key elements that impact health climate regulation by soils. Rock-Eval® thermal analysis technique is becoming more commonly used, as it represents a powerful method for SOM characterization providing insights into bulk chemistry stability. In this study, we applied on large sample set from the first campaign (2000–2009) French...

This research is a follow-up of more comprehensive PhD study on assessment shale gas resources in the northern Song Hong basin that was conducted at Asian Institute Technology (AIT). The basin, typical pull-apart Cenozoic had experienced post-extensional stage accompanied by seafloor spreading from Upper Oligocene to Lower Miocene with its stratigraphy characterised fault-controlled syn-rift co...
