Pyrolysis Results of Shales from the South Cambay Basin, India: Implications for Gas Generation Potential

Abstract: Shale, an abundant organic-rich sedimentary rock of extremely low porosity, is of lately being realized as a significant energy source, owing to the possibility of huge amount of natural gas which may be stored in it. Instigated by the enormous production of natural gas from the shale formations of Barnett, Marcellus and several other plays in USA, the Indian sedimentary basins are being looked assertively for their shale gas prospects. The petroliferous Cambay basin in western India with interbedded carbonace… Show more

“…When buried deeper at high temperatures, kerogen cracks to bitumen, which degrades to form oil and gas. Properties of kerogen such as its concentration, quality or type and its thermal maturity are important for the generation of oil and gas (Mishra et al, 2015).…”
