The Total Organic Carbon (TOC) content of source rock is arguably the most essential parameter to assess the development potential of an unconventional reservoir. Traditionally, TOC is estimated using laboratory methods such as Rock-Eval pyrolysis, elemental analysis, etc. However, since the presence of organic carbon has an effect on the response of well logging tools, TOC may be estimated using wireline logs, which provides a continuous depth profile of TOC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
