Fractionation of hydrocarbons and NSO-compounds during primary oil migration revealed by high resolution mass spectrometry: Insights from oil trapped in fluid inclusions

“…The mountain range forms part of the Tisza Mega-unit (Csontos, 1995;Csontos et al, 2002). This area became part of the European continent at the end of the Variscan orogeny, and rifted off the European shelf at the end of the Jurassic (Haas et al, 1999;Csontos et al, 2002).
