Using a one‐dimensional model, we numerically simulate with time the geological processes of sedimentary deposition, compaction, fluid flow, heat flow and hydrocarbon generation. Input well data, in the form of present‐day formation thicknesses, porosity with depth, thermal gradient, vitrinite refle...
