Unconventional Gas Resources in the Paleozoic of Central Europe

Abstract: Résumé -Ressources de gaz non conventionnels dans le Paléozoïque de l'Europe CentraleAlors que l'extraction du gaz naturel des gisements non conventionnels a fortement augmenté ces dernières dizaines d'années, un large potentiel de ressources reste inexploré dans les couches paléozoïques de l'Europe Centrale. Cet article présente, pour cette région, quelques aspects importants de la géologie des grès de faible perméabilité (tight gas sands), des gaz de schiste (gas shales) et du gaz de houille (coalbed methane… Show more

“…Recently, Gasparik et al (2014) published methane-sorption isotherms for a larger set of organic-rich shale samples studied in the framework of the European Shale Gas Research Project (Littke et al 2011). In this work, methodological aspects of the high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) sorption measurements are discussed and demonstrated for experimental data obtained for sample "Alum_S2-18" from Gasparik et al (2014).…”

“…The sorption of hydrocarbon gas (mostly methane) in shales provides gas-storage capacity in addition to the "free-gas" capacity in the pore system. Although methane (CH 4 ) sorption is considered to take place predominantly in microporous organic matter (kerogen) (Ross and Bustin 2009;Weniger et al 2010;Zhang et al 2012;Gasparik et al 2014), inorganic constituents (clay minerals) may contribute a significant portion of sorption capacity in dry shales with low-organic-matter contents (Lu et al 1995;Ross and Bustin 2009;Gasparik et al 2012Gasparik et al , 2014Ji et al 2012). Quantification of the total-storage capacity, including sorption capacity and volumetric-storage capacity (non-sorption), is a prerequisite for estimations of resource potential and technically recoverable amounts of gas at given reservoir conditions.…”

“…Sedimentary basins in NW-Germany and the Netherlands represent potential targets for shale gas/shale oil exploration due to the presence of Lower Cretaceous lacustrine (Wealden; Rippen et al, 2013) and Jurassic marine (Posidonia Shale) organic-rich marlstones and shales as well as various Carboniferous black shales (Littke et al, 2011;Andruleit et al, 2012;Uffmann et al, 2012). The Lower Jurassic Posidonia Shale is the most important source rock for conventional oil exploration in this area Wehner, 1997;Blumenstein et al, 2008) but is also one of the most promising candidates for unconventional shale gas/oil exploration (Andruleit et al, 2012) besides the Lower Cretaceous Wealden Shale.…”

“…Devonian sequences have also contributed significantly as source rocks and host rocks for petroleum and natural gas production in Canada, the USA and North Africa (Bertrand and Malo, 2001;Roen and Kepferle, 1993). More recently, a number of similar plays have been discovered in organic-matter rich lower Palaeozoic sediments in Europe, especially in the area extending from eastern Denmark and southern Sweden to northern and eastern Poland, that have been regarded as potential locations for unconventional shale gas deposits (Littke et al, 2011;Pearson et al, 2012).…”
