Laboratory studies of the behavior of organic matter of the Bazhenov deposits during thermal effects

Abstract

© Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. Currently, the role of unconventional facilities for hydrocarbons is increasing. Such objects include the Domanik rocks (Republic of Tatarstan) and Bazhenov deposits (Western Siberia). The article presents the results of studying the type of organic matter of the Bazhenov suite and studying the process of pyrolysis of organic matter. It is established that the formation of new free hydrocarbon radicals occurs at temperatures up to 350°C (pyrolysis of organic matter). This indicates that the rocks of the Bazhenov suite did not fully realize their hydrocarbon potential. The deposits of the "normal" section of the Bazhenov suite not only contain a large amount of ready and hard to recover hydrocarbons, but also have an additional generation potential.
