A Review of Indicators of Thermal Evolution of Source Rocks

Abstract

Abstract: The review of available indicators of all organic matters in source rocks is based on collecting literatures published at home and abroad, and their advantages and disadvantages as well as the problems existed in practical application are listed. The study shows that a number of indicators should be applied for appraisal of the extent of thermal evolution of organic matters, thus establishing the relationship among the indicators and the vitrinite reflectance in order to properly confirm the extent of thermal evolution.

Key words: source rock, indicator, thermal evolution, vitrinite reflectance

CLC Number:

TE112.11
