“…The behaviors of several hydrocarbon-based molecular parameters during thermal processing of organic matter rich source rocks have been reported from laboratory heating experiments. Hydrous pyrolysis is one of the most widely used organic geochemical techniques for carrying out artificial maturation studies of source rocks and crude oils . Hydrous pyrolysis has been used to investigate the molecular changes occurring during thermal treatment of kerogens and whole rocks .…”

“…Hydrous pyrolysis is one of the most widely used organic geochemical techniques for carrying out artificial maturation studies of source rocks 4 and crude oils. 5 Hydrous pyrolysis has been used to investigate the molecular changes occurring during thermal treatment of kerogens 6 and whole rocks. 4 The studies have provided insights into the behavior of molecular parameters and the reaction mechanisms (free radial vs cationic 7,8 ) during thermal treatment of organic matter.…”

“…However, research results on the stability of petroleum in a subsurface environment are controversial. Laboratory simulation experiments indicated that petroleum may be rapidly decomposed to gaseous hydrocarbons in the presence of natural catalysts at moderate temperatures of less than 200 °C. On the other hand, hydrocarbons were believed to be stable in subsurface reservoirs for billions of years , and were only slowly degraded via thermal cracking at reservoir temperatures. Discoveries of high-temperature, high-pressure oil reservoirs suggest that hydrocarbons may be more stable than previously thought. , Recent laboratory studies also suggested that hydrocarbons in crude oils are stable and complete cracking of oil to dry gas below 200 °C is difficult …”

“…Almost all pyrolysis experiments related to oil cracking are carried out under anhydrous conditions (e.g., Tian et al, 2007;Wang, T. S. et al, 2007). There is few paper (e.g., Curiale et al, 1992;Tsuzuki et al, 1999) to discuss oil cracking under hydrous conditions, but the work were not related to a comparison of the gas yields between anhydrous and hydrous pyrolysis conditions and did not discuss carbon and hydrogen isotope ratios of the gaseous products from oil cracking. In this study, laboratory pyrolysis experiments of a selected crude oil sample were performed under hydrous and anhydrous conditions in a sealed gold tube system.…”
