Seep biogeochemistry & organic geochemistry
By Paul Farrimond
Oleanane is present in only some oils and source rocks. It occurs as two isomers – 18α(H) and 18b(H) – and is typically found as a doublet peak in the m/z 191 mass chromatogram eluting just before the C30 αb hopane.

The paper, in collaboration with @ Petrostrat and @ Geocosm , is entitled: “Under pressure: using basin models to help predict reservoir quality in the Garn Formation in the Norwegian Sea”
Focussing on the Middle Jurassic Garn Fm.

Highlights
Interpretation and integration of all data, from source rock screening (e.g., kerogen type, maturity) to isotopic & molecular data (e.g., palaeoenvironment, age)
Understanding fluid provenance, including fluid-source correlation, alteration, migration, maturity & source age
From regional screening, to detailed reservoir geochemistry & production allocation, IGI can help utilise all geochemical data to better understand subsurface systems
Powerful clustering, regression, classification, outlier detection & spatial interpolation of geochemical data
Geochemical interpretations can help ground-truth geological, reservoir & basin models
Integrating sample data into regional context, depending on the scope of work, location & data availability
Over 1,500 projects in most basins worldwide since 1983
Ranging from source rock characterisation to biomarker analysis to gas geochemistry
Data ingestion pipeline produces cleaned, quality-assured data for reliable interpretation
Utilising IGI’s ML Toolkit for powerful statistical insights
