Influence of surface temperatures on source rock maturity - An example from the Arctic:
Using paleontological and geochemical techniques the long-term temperature development of the central Arctic was documented from sedimentary records for the first time. With the help of the new paleo-climatic evolution a tectonic paleo heat flow prediction of the Kara Sea area was performed to show...

Summary: | Using paleontological and geochemical techniques the long-term temperature development of the central Arctic was documented from sedimentary records for the first time. With the help of the new paleo-climatic evolution a tectonic paleo heat flow prediction of the Kara Sea area was performed to show the influence of paleo temperatures on the temperature and maturity history of that region. © 2010, Society of Petroleum Engineers. |
