Research on the origin and source of hydrate-bound gas and its relationship to deep
conventional oil and gas accumulation in a basin is critical to understanding the …

Rising ocean temperatures and falling sea level are commonly cited as mechanisms of
marine gas hydrate destabilization. More recently, uplift—both isostatic and tectonic—has …

In recent years, significant progress and breakthroughs have been made in the exploration
of conventional and unconventional natural gas in the Lower Cambrian petroleum system in …

The Mesozoic strata in the northern South China Sea have good potential for oil and gas
exploration. The Dongsha Waters, where the study area is located, have complex seismic …

Oil seep samples from Abu-Jir Fault Zone (AJFZ) were geochemically characterized to
determine the level of biodegradation and the depositional environment of correlative …

The Ordovician Wulalike Formation in the northwestern Ordos Basin is a new prospect for
exploring marine shale gas in China, facing prominent problems such as unclear reservoir …

The crude oils from the reservoirs of Mela-01 and Mela-04 wells located in the Kohat Basin,
Pakistan, were geochemically analyzed to evaluate the origin, depositional conditions, and …

Stepwise depressurization is an important depressurization strategy in the development of
natural gas hydrates. This work numerically analyzes the effects of different depressurization …

Oil seep samples from the Foothill Zone of northern Iraq were geochemically characterized
to determine the level of biodegradation and water washing of the seeps and to determine …

Abstract The southwestern Junggar Basin is an attractive region for oil exploration. A major
discovery of high oil production rate from a recently drilled borehole stimulated a new round …
