DOI: 10.1016/j.sedgeo.2019.02.004
Abstract: Abstract Organic matter quantity and type are important parameters in conventional source rock evaluation and unconventional shale oil/gas reservoir characterization. Understanding the stratigraphic distribution of organic matter content and type in black shale successions is… read more here.
