Abstract:
Electrical resistivity is widely used as an effective proxy for detection of organic matter and hydrocarbons in shales. Recently, with more organic-rich shales being studied, it has been noted that resistivity follows a non linear evolution with thermal maturity, influenced by the changes in conductivity of the liquid and solid phases and their distribution within the rocks.
