Pattern matching method was done by using chromatogram GC of n-alkane and isoprenoids (Figure 1) also fragmentogram GCMS of terpane m/z 191 and sterane m/z 217 (Figure 2). The pattern matching shows that all oils have a relatively similar pattern, indicating that all the oil samples came from one family with deltaic to marginal marine source facies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
