Introduction: Basic concepts of petroleum geology Minerals and Rocks: - Understanding of thickness, area, continuity, TOC, S1 + S2; productivity index, kerogen type) - Source rock data (% Ro, Tmax, SCI, etc.)
Migration: - Migration time, seal, relative trap development - Maturation model (burial history, ancient geothermal, basin flow) - Thermal gradient (BHT, heat flow, lithology) Unconventional Reservoirs: - Reservoir properties - Reservoir & distribution type - Reservoir quality & Hydrocarbon Trap characterization Hood Layer: - Distribution of very fine-grained sediments - Geological structure involvement - Pitfalls
Geochemical Biomarkers: - Use of Geochemistry - Biomarker distribution - Specific biomarkers for correlation - Degradation type: biodegradation, migration results
Methane Gas Shale Gas: - Shale - Shale Gas - Shale deposition model - Wealth of organic material
Unconventional Pore System: Shale deposition model and richness of organic material Unconventional System Applications and Their Successes
