Source Rock Composition Analysis Services |
|
Intertek provides evaluation of petroleum source rocks using organic carbon content, hydrocarbon content, kerogen maceral analysis, visual kerogen, and vitrinite reflectance. Intertek supports petroleum exploration and production projects on a global basis with field and laboratory technical services.
The geochemistry laboratories provide detailed oil reservoir source rock evaluation services
that includes TOC determination, source rock potential determination
through Rock Eval Pyrolysis and source rock proclivity and maturity
determination utilizing Vitrinite Reflectance and Visual Kerogen
Typing techniques.
Vitrinite Reflectance provides measurement of maximum palaeotemperatures in hydrocarbon-bearing basins. Visual Kerogen Typing offers identification of Kerogen. Kerogen is solid, waxy, insoluble organic matter found in oil shale rock, consisting of a variety of hydrocarbons.
