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.

The C29 hopane, 30-norhopane, is not only a member of the series of regular hopanes but also of a less common series that lack the methyl group at C-22 in the side chain, the 30-norhopanes.

We introduced the usage of a box-size numerical model of miscible multiphase flow, with explicit advection and diffusion in both the liquid and gas phases, to model the migration and…

In petroleum geochemistry, a source rock is classified as an interval of rock that contains sufficient organic matter of the right type that has the potential to generate, or has already generated, commercial quantities of hydrocarbons.

This unusual hopane-like compound is recognised together with the hopanes in the m/z 191 mass chromatogram and was for many years used as a biomarker of hypersalinity due to its common high abundance in sediments deposited under such conditions. However, a key paper by Sinninghe-Damsté et al.

4 - 7 of May 2025 - to present the latest results on our Petroleum Systems Modelling (PSM) study for the MSGBC Basin.
A joint effort between TGS and IGI integrates the results from an extensive multibeam and seafloor sampling campaign with a regional seismic data set.

The geological storage of CO2 is a promising means to help reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere during the energy transition stages (e. g. , Raza et al. , 2022).
