Native H2ORG generation

Basin models can now predict the generation of native H₂ from overmature organic matter (H₂ORG) in time and space thanks to our new kinetic model.

Deliverables

We supply:
2-D and 3-D models of organic native H₂ generation and migration.

Data

Update and upgrade your existing Schlumberger petroleum system models.
Start from scratch to model the generation of hydrocarbon gas, oil, oil-to-gas cracking and native H₂ORG.

Components

Revisit your old stomping grounds!

• H₂ is prolifically generated from overmature organic matter in shales and coals.
• Its yield per unit rock volume closely resembles that of economic shale gas.
• Generation appears to OM-type independent.
