Geomechanical property changes with hydrous pyrolysis in Mahogany oil shale in Green River Formation
… the geomechanical properties of shale formation. Hydrous pyrolysis experiments were conducted to represent the four different stages of petroleum formation: temperature ranges that represent the bitumen generation (300°C), bitumen generation and initial oil generation (330°C), oil generation …

Natural Gas Generation Potential of the Wufeng-Longmaxi and Niutitang Shale Formations, Sichuan Basin, China: Insight from Hydrous and Anhydrous Pyrolysis
… rocks using artificial thermal maturation, e.g., pyrolysis, to investigate hydrocarbon generation potential. In this study, hydrous and anhydrous pyrolysis experiments were conducted on black shale core and outcrop samples to evaluate and compare the characteristics and gas generation potential of …

Organic matter structural changes during catagenesis : implications of kerogen chemical structure on petroleum yield and composition.
… work describes the machining of cost-efficient hydrous pyrolysis reactors and furnaces used to simulate natural oil forming (catagenesis) processes. These reactors were used to generate petroleum products from both geologic sediments and biofuel feedstocks, including black shales, coal, algae, …

Characterisation of unresolved complex mixtures of hydrocarbons by degradative methods
… the origins of UCMs was made. The products of hydrous pyrolysis of man-made (polythene) and biogenic (cutan) polymers under conditions proposed previously to simulate catagenesis, included, in the hydrocarbons, high proportions of UCMs (50% - >70%). Hydrous pyrolysis of polythene produced a …

Effect of thermal maturity on nanomechanical properties and porosity in organic rich shales (a Bakken shale case study)
… maturity were studied at natural state and after hydrous pyrolysis using FESEM imaging, nanoindentation and nano-DMA techniques. Laminated texture of shales at low maturity levels (caused by abundance of organo-clay mixtures) changed to increased stiff grains contact and isolated kerogen …

Marine sedimentary organic matter : delineation of marine and terrestrial sources through radiocarbon dating; and the role of organic sulfur in early petroleum generation
… from the same experimental study -the use of hydrous-pyrolysis to investigate mechanisms leading to the production of petroleum-related products during kerogen maturation. Chapter 3, on the other hand, utilizes a recently developed technique of isolating and AMS-14C dating individual compounds …

Re-Os geochronology and geochemistry of Proterozoic sedimentary successions
… sedimentary rocks that have experienced flash pyrolysis and demonstrate that the Re-Os systematics are not disturbed by the effects of very rapid heating. Coupled with palaeomagnetic data the Re-Os geochronology suggests that a reassessment of the role of the West African craton during the …

Source rock potential of the Bakken shales in the Williston Basin, North Dakota and Montana
… also experimentally derived by the method of hydrous pyrolysis from the immature upper Bakken shale samples. After the whole series of HP experiments, the kinetics (E[subscript a] and A[subscript 0]) of upper Bakken composite sample are summarized as follow: (E[subscript a]= 55.17 kcal/mole …
