Leaf biomass – a new paradigm for sourcing the terrestrial oils of Taranaki Basin
- Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
- Authors: R. Sykes, L.R. Snowdon and P.E. Johansen
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: December 2004
Abstract:
Late Cretaceous-Eocene coal measures have sourced waxy, paraffinic crude oils in the otherwise gas-rich Taranaki Basin, but incomplete understanding of organofacies controls on the generation and expulsion of non-volatile oil has hindered prediction ...

Inferring Kerogen Kinetics for Exploration in the Timor Sea Region
- Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
- Authors: David C. Lowry
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: December 1998
Abstract:
Explorationists commonly model hydrocarbon generation from a source rock by assuming that the kerogen can be characterised as Type I, II or III, and accepting the default kinetic parameters built into modelling programs. This can lead to errors and m...
