We determine the organic matter content, its thermal maturity, genetic type, and source rock potential of Miocene sedimentary rocks in Czech Carpathian Foredeep. In Republic Foredeep represents a peripheral foreland basin formed due to tectonic emplacement loading Alpine-Carpathian Thrust Wedge onto passive margin Bohemian Massif. Random vitrinite/huminite reflectance measurements maceral analy...

Abstract In this study the hydrocarbon generation potential of coal and coaly shale samples collected from mines in Attock-Cherat Range Pakistan is optically analytically evaluated. These samples, representing Paleocene Hangu Formation, are analyzed across a range thermal maturity stages to understand their potential. The visual examination maceral type values vitrinite reflectance have been co...

Contrasting tillage strategies not only affect the stability and formation of soil aggregates but also modify concentration thermostability organic matter associated with aggregates. Understanding carbon retention ability under different systems is essential to ascertain potential terrestrial storage. We characterized (SOC) within various aggregate size classes both zero conventional using nove...

By using total organic carbon (TOC) and Rock-Eval pyrolysis analysis measurements, the hydrocarbon source rock potential of Chichali Samana Suk formations found in subsurface Panjpir oilfield Punjab platform located eastern part middle Indus Basin was investigated. Twenty two core samples were collected from producing well. The analysed formation contains TOC ranging between 0.99-4.61 wt.% havi...

The present study focuses on source rock evaluation of the Sargelu Formation by using core chips rocks collected from well Atrush-2, Duhok, Kurdistan Region-Iraq. Rock-Eval pyrolysis and vitrinite reflectance were executed. Subsequently, selected parameters used for 1-D Basin Modelling calibration. upper part formation mainly comprises argillaceous limestone with low content organic matter (0.6...

Abstract The present study aims to investigate the origin, type, thermal maturity and hydrocarbon generation potential of organic matter paleo-depositional environment Early Paleocene (Danian) Hangu Formation outcropped in Kala-Chitta Range Northwest Pakistan, Eastern Tethys. Organic-rich shale coal intervals were utilized for geochemical analyses including TOC (total carbon) Rock–Eval pyrolysi...

The Mesoproterozoic Xiamaling Formation (∼1.4 Ga) is considered to be a set of promising strata for shale oil and gas exploration production in the Yanliao Basin, North China Craton. This study aimed investigate organic matter accumulation mechanism, hydrocarbon generation expulsion characteristics Formation, using various methods, including scanning electron microscopy, rock-eval pyrolysis, el...
