Abstract
Summary
We present the results of the pyrolysis using shale powder to see whether the presence of minerals and/or water has significant effects on the kerogen-oil interactions and related late gas generation. The results indicates minor effects of minerals and water in the shale on the gas generation processes under the employed conditions in this study. The oil expulsion has played an important role in enhancing late gas generation, which may be associated with the changes in the kerogen structure.
