“…Four samples from middle and top Ritqa, 4 samples from middle Raudhatain, 5 samples from bottom Burgan, and 4 samples from middle Minagish. These samples were treated by pyrolysis Rock-Eval 6 (RE6), using standard bulk rock method, which the sample is heated at 300℃ for 5 min., followed by the heating ramp of 300-650℃ at a rate of 25℃/minute (Peters, 1986;Shah & Ahmed, 2018;Shah & Ahmed, 2020). For kerogen elemental analyses and kerogen isolation examination, the samples were treated using standard acid maceration techniques using HCL and HF to calculate the amount of TOC contents, and the type of the organic matter as well as an environment of deposition,…”
