Databases and Syntheses

Check out the kinetics database, and select samples individually. Or choose pre-selected packages for various regional applications.

Conventionals — PhaseFinder Packages

We have collated PhaseKinetics data for specially selected potential source rocks into regional off-the-shelf products called PhaseFinder Packages. These are particularly useful in licensing rounds when predicting the relative volumes of gaseous and liquid phases, inferring migration pathways and predicting daughter compositions.

Shale plays — ShaleGasFinder and ShalePayFinder Packages

ShaleGasFinder packages provide the relevant regional information for reconnaissance-level assessment of regional shale gas prospectivity. Based on collations of published and proprietary data a rapid and detailed overview of key source rock characteristics and constraints is provided. ShalePayFinder focus on liquid and gas-condensate potential. Akin to our ShaleGasFinder Packages, published and proprietary data are collated and summarised to provide an insight into liquid potential and quality.

Kinetics Database

Our kinetics database contains activation energy distributions and single frequency factors for samples from all over the world. Use parameters you can rely on, linked to organofacies, for modelling source rock behaviour in conventional petroleum systems and the generation behaviour of tight lithologies in unconventional resource plays.

The data are collated from internal research reports and public literature which we know to be of the highest quality and made them available in the form of a global database (MS Excel format). Browse the database for country, age, or formation of your source rock in need.

Regional literature synthesis

Critical literature synthesis is provided for selected regional applications.
