The siliceous shale oil and gas in Nadanhada terrane has been studied through field geological survey, geochemistry sedimentary petrology. results show that the area belongs to a good reservoir, rock is brittle suitable for exploitation. abundance of organic matter relatively high. From west east from south north, increases maturity decreases. dynamic metamorphism thermal contact rocks are grad...

Peatlands are an important global carbon reservoir. The continued accumulation of carbon in peatlands depends on the persistence of anoxic conditions, in part induced by water saturation, which prevents oxidation of organic matter, and slows down decomposition. Here we investigate how and over what time scales the hydrological regime impacts the geochemistry and the bacterial community structur...

Microorganisms catalyze carbon cycling and biogeochemical reactions in the deep subsurface and thus may be expected to influence the fate of injected supercritical (sc) CO2 following geological carbon sequestration (GCS). We hypothesized that natural subsurface scCO2 reservoirs, which serve as analogs for the long-term fate of sequestered scCO2 , harbor a 'deep carbonated biosphere' with carbon...

The Sim-SEQ project coordinated by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) aims at providing a comparative study of different conceptual models with respect to predicting the behavior of CO2 geological storage operations conducted on a reservoir formation, while using the same database for site characterization. The S-3 site has been selected for conducting such a comparative study. Al...

This study performs a comprehensive comparison of three key marine shale reservoirs in the southeastern margin of the Sichuan Basin, and explains why commercial gas production was only achieved in the Lower Silurian Longmaxi (LSL) and Upper Ordovician Wufeng (UOW) formations, but not in the Lower Cambrian Niutitang (LCN) formation. The experimental methods included in situ gas content and gas c...
