Automated Evaluation of Petroleum Source Rocks Using A Microphotometer

Due to the spike in energy prices, there is intense interest in locating and
developing additional oil and gas reserves. These reserves are located in sedimentary
basins and predictions can be made of the quantity of oil and gas in these reservoirs
by the identification and characterization of petroleum source rocks. However,
this requires an understanding the burial and thermal maturation histories of
the strata in these basins.
