Unlocking the Petroleum System

We use advanced chemical analysis to answer key questions about your acreage and its potential. Our services provide critical insights into the four main components of a petroleum system:

• Source Rock Characterization: We identify the presence, quality, richness (TOC), and type of source rocks, helping you map where hydrocarbons were generated.
• Thermal Maturity Modeling: We determine the thermal maturity of the source rock, providing a precise timeline of when hydrocarbons were generated and migrated.
• Oil-Source Rock Correlation: Through advanced biomarker and isotopic analysis, we can confidently match oil and gas samples to their specific source rock, revealing migration pathways and helping to understand reservoir fill.
• Fluid Analysis: We provide detailed characterization of your oil and gas samples to predict their properties, origin, and potential for mixing or biodegradation.

Our Advanced Methodology

Our experienced geochemists utilize state-of-the-art laboratory techniques on a wide range of samples, including rock cuttings, core, oil, and gas. This provides a data-rich foundation for our interpretations and ensures the highest level of confidence in our results.

The Key Benefits We Deliver

By integrating our geochemical analysis into your workflow, you can add a new layer of certainty to your projects:

• De-Risking Exploration: Confirm the presence of a viable source rock and a working petroleum system, which is essential for reducing exploration risk.
• Predicting Hydrocarbon Type: Gain insights into whether a play is likely to be oil-prone or gas-prone, helping to inform your development and marketing strategies.
• Enhanced Basin Understanding: Build a comprehensive model of the basin’s thermal history and hydrocarbon charge, which is invaluable for long-term strategic planning.
• Optimized Exploration Strategy: Focus your exploration efforts and capital on plays with a proven geochemical footprint.
